Boswellia — also known as frankincense — has been used for thousands of years as both a sacred medicine and a powerful ally for the body 🌿
Traditionally revered in Ayurvedic and ancient healing systems, Boswellia is best known today for its anti-inflammatory, joint-supporting, and gut-soothing properties. It’s often used to support:
✨ joint and connective tissue health
✨ chronic inflammation
✨ digestive balance
✨ immune resilience
But beyond the physical, Boswellia carries a beautiful subtle medicine too — helping to calm the nervous system, deepen breath, and create a sense of inner spaciousness. It’s no coincidence it has long been burned in ritual and prayer.
I’ve written more about how Boswellia works, who it’s most supportive for, and how to use it safely and effectively over on my blog.

Accountability isn’t about blame.
It isn’t about punishment or being “wrong.”
Accountability is about honesty.
It’s the moment we stop outsourcing our power and gently turn inward.
It’s saying: this is where I am —
without stories, without excuses, without self-attack.
When we take responsibility for our choices, our patterns, and our healing, something shifts.
We move from victimhood into agency.
From repetition into possibility.
Accountability is an act of self-respect.
It’s how we honour our nervous system, our boundaries, and the life we’re creating.
No shame.
No spiritual bypassing.
Just presence, courage, and the willingness to choose again.
That’s where real change begins 🌱

I’m Louise, founder of The Way of the Hummingbird ✨
This work was born from a deep remembering — that healing doesn’t have to be heavy, and growth doesn’t have to mean force. Like the hummingbird, we are here to move lightly, drink from what truly nourishes us, and trust that even the smallest wings can carry us great distances.
The Way of the Hummingbird is where body wisdom, ancient earth teachings, and modern life meet.
It’s a space for rooting deeply, rising truthfully, and learning how to make the impossible possible — not by striving, but by listening.
I walk this path alongside you, not ahead of you.
As a guide, a space-holder, and a fellow human remembering how to live in alignment with soul, body, and Earth.
If you’re feeling the call to soften, to remember who you truly are, and to choose a life that feels more alive…
you’re already on the path 🐦✨

You are not your past.
You are not your mistakes, your wounds, or the chapters that broke you open.
Your past is not a label — it’s a teacher.
It carries wisdom, resilience, and truth, but it does not get to decide who you are becoming.
We don’t heal by erasing where we’ve been.
We heal by listening, learning, and choosing differently from here.
Let your past inform you, not confine you.
Let it soften you, strengthen you, and shape your compassion —
but don’t let it limit your sense of possibility.
You are allowed to grow beyond old stories.
You are allowed to choose a new way forward.
You are allowed to become someone you’ve never been before 🌱

Thanks to you big Ayllu family, the residents of the Cochamarca community, are very grateful for the Christmas assistance they received this year from Don Alejandro, Raul, Justo, and other family members. They received school supplies, backpacks, and food products.
At the end of the video the lady expresses her heartfelt gratitude, explaining that no one comes to that area (it’s an 8-hour drive from Cusco city) and that it’s abandoned. At Christmas, the children have to walk a long way, or sometimes they forget it’s Christmas because they don’t receive anything. And they are so grateful.
Thanks to the sisters and brothers who are helping, Don Alejandro and the Apaza family, she says that the universe and the Apus bless you all ✨💕🙏

Moose Medicine 🜂
Moose walks the forest quietly, yet nothing about their presence is small.
They teach us grounded power — the strength that comes from knowing who you are and not needing to prove it.
Moose medicine reminds us to:
• Move at our pace, not the world’s
• Stand firm in our boundaries
• Trust our instincts over external noise
• Lead with calm authority rather than force
When Moose appears, it may be asking you to slow down, root deeper, and take up space without apology.
True power is not loud.
It is steady, embodied, and unshakeable.
Where in your life are you being invited to stand your ground — gently, but fully?

Kaizen: the power of small, steady steps 🌱
In Japan there’s a philosophy called Kaizen — it means continuous improvement.
Not massive overhauls. Not burning your life down to start again.
Just small, intentional shifts made consistently over time.
In the West we’re often taught to push harder, go faster, do more.
We wait for motivation, for the “right time,” for the big breakthrough.
And when we can’t sustain that intensity, we assume we’ve failed.
Kaizen offers a gentler — and far more sustainable — way.
✨ 1% changes
✨ Tiny daily practices
✨ Choosing consistency over perfection
Drinking one more glass of water.
Taking five conscious breaths.
Moving your body for ten minutes instead of an hour.
Speaking to yourself with a little more kindness than yesterday.
These small acts compound.
They rewire the nervous system.
They build trust with yourself.
And over time, they quietly transform your life.
In a culture obsessed with instant results, Kaizen reminds us:
slow is not lazy — it’s wise.
Where could you soften the pressure today and choose one small step instead?

✨ Yule Blessings ✨
Today we honour Yule, the sacred turning of the wheel.
The longest night.
The quiet pause.
The moment the light is reborn. 🌲🔥
Yule invites us to rest in the dark soil of winter, trusting that beneath the stillness, new life is already stirring. It’s a time to release what no longer serves, to tend the inner fire, and to gently call in our hopes for the cycle ahead.
Light a candle.
Breathe deeply.
Listen to what your soul is whispering in the dark.
May the returning light bless your path with warmth, clarity, and renewal.
✨🌟

Also - wishing you all a Merry Christmas 🙏✨💖

You don’t need to become someone new.
You are remembering.
Reclaiming.
Peeling back the layers
that were never truly you.
This is not about self-improvement.
It’s about self-return.
And it’s already happening. ✨

Grieve it, and leave it…
Grieve what didn’t bloom.
Grieve the flowers you drank from that had no nectar.
Grieve the seasons where you gave your wings to the wind and forgot your own rhythm.
Let the tears fall — they soften the soil.
Hummingbird knows that grief is part of learning where not to return.
But once the lesson is tasted,
once the sweetness (and the bitterness) are known…
leave it.
Leave the empty blossoms.
Leave the stories that make your wings heavy.
Leave the past places where your magic was unnoticed.
Hummingbird never lingers where there is no nourishment.
She moves on — lightly, bravely, trusting that the next flower will meet it.
This year, drink only from what feeds your spirit.
Choose beauty. Choose truth. Choose aliveness.
Let joy be your compass and curiosity your guide.
Carry the wisdom.
Carry the sparkle.
Carry the impossible made possible.
Everything else can stay behind. ✨🐦

Welcome to the heart of The Way of the Hummingbird 🕊️
The headquarters of The Way of the Hummingbird is more than a physical space — it is a living, breathing sanctuary. A place where the noise of the outside world softens, where time slows, and where something ancient within you is gently remembered.
This is a space shaped by intention. By earth and flame. By stillness and listening.
Here, the body is welcomed first — to rest, to exhale, to feel safe. The nervous system unwinds as the senses are soothed: soft light, natural textures, the quiet presence of the elements. The space holds you without asking anything of you. It allows you to arrive exactly as you are.
This is where osteopathy meets ceremony. Where grounded, hands-on healing weaves seamlessly with shamanic practice, storytelling, and soul work. Where the physical and the unseen are not separate, but in quiet conversation with one another.
The Hummingbird’s medicine lives here — reminding us of lightness without bypassing depth, of joy rooted in truth, of the courage it takes to drink only from flowers that truly nourish. It is a place of both gentleness and bravery. Of coming home to the body, and remembering how to dream again.
This headquarters is not about perfection or performance. It is about presence. About creating a container where healing unfolds in its own rhythm — guided, held, but never rushed.
Whether you enter this space for treatment, ceremony, learning, or reflection, you are stepping into a field that has been carefully tended. A space that exists to support transformation that is embodied, integrated, and real.
A quiet nest for the soul.
A launch point for the impossible made possible.

This is The Way of the Hummingbird.
