Hecate's Herbs

25/02/2024

It's been awhile since I posted.
I had another baby she is almost 2 now.
And I started the journey of homeschooling which is a full job in itself.
But I still love my herbs
I still believe strongly in yoni steams.
My husband built me this big garden while I was 8 months pregnant and this year, it is flourishing with fruit, berries, vegetables and herbs. This is the herb part I am standing in. It doesn't have all my herbs in it yet but it has alot. Pennyroyal, wormwood, mugwort, motherwort, chamomile, peppermint, lemon balm, ashwagandha and so so much more.
It's harvest season and I'm honestly finding it tricky to juggle harvesting, homeschooling and my other parental duties. So it's good thing I don't have 50 different herbs in there yet.
And yes I had name change too.

We are making this at home dandelion honey.

It has loads of health benefits but should be used in moderation as it's made with sugar.

Since having my 2nd baby I and starting the journey of homeschooling my eldest, I have found life overwhelming, exhausting, overloaded, and quite honestly difficult. On top of that, I embarked on a new journey at the beginning of this year, exploring deeper healing work, sexual alchemy, and ta**ra. I signed up for a course with .yonirituals, and everything just got too much.
I honestly feel like I crawled inside myself to hide from the world. I had serve PTSD from my teenage childhood rear up and my husband arranged councilling for me it's been helpful in so many ways 7 months after my course was done and dusted I decide I have to stop procrastinating and get into it. I have been doing it for 4 weeks now and in the that short time I have learnt so much more about myself then in the last 10 years..I have healed lots and made some positive progress in my life.

Being stuck in a rut is hard to pull yourself out off and trying to change too much at a time will just burn you out, and you will fall off the wagon and go back to self-loathing. Trust me.

The best way is to start with 3 small easy things you can do. It can be as easy as this above self-love affirmations, daily accomplishments, and even all it is to start with is I got out of bed before 10 am, or I brushed my hair today. And gratitude.
Along the way you may add to these, your 3 loving affirmations may be followed by face care routine, you may sit somewhere you can soak up the sun and take a few deep breathes to also soak up your day and enjoy a herbal tea while you write about your accomplishments. You may sip on a hot ceremonial cacao or listen to healing music while you write what you're grateful for today.

Just doing these 3 things can boost your self-esteem and confidence. It can help build up your energy and bring more abundance into your life, and it will actually making you glow, your friends and family will notice. With this, you will attract more positivity into your life from the outside world

Create space for "YOU" daily whether its 10mins or 1 hour.

You will be amazed how things start to change how you start new positive habits and patterns and drop old negative ones.

This photo of what a 7 year IUD looked like upon removal was shared on a support group and shared with permission. "Where did the copper go?" The answer is that it is embedded in this woman's uterine wall and now needs to be removed surgically. Sending warm support to her in that process:( Unfortunately, this problem is just one of a long list of adverse effects from both Copper & Hormonal IUDs.

Today I tried Cold Water Immersion CWI,

Aka an Ice cold bath.

Because it is winter and water is around 1°C out in the country side I actually didnt need to add any ice.

Did take time to take photos no.
I was in the moment and naked so didnt want to try take photos.

I also listened to a sounding healing 432hz singing bowls track through the load speaker.

I stayed in the freezing water much longer then I realized and probably should have on my first time. 31mins. I honestly thought it had only been 15mins.

The Mind is amazing. If I had have been watching a clock watching the seconds tick by I probably wouldn't have lasted past 5 mins. It took about 90 seconds to become emerged to the top of the neck.

Being in upto the top of the neck line stimulates the vagus nerve. Which has immense health benefits.

The vagus nerve travels into the body, passing the cardiovascular system, the digestive system, the reproductive system, and many other organs. It takes readings from each and passes on messages from the brain, like a neuronal superhighway. As the largest nerve in the body, it covers a stunning amount of ground.

Stimulating the vagus nerve can ‘wake up’ the Parasympathetic Nervous System. This then goes to work in various beneficial ways. Stomach acid and digestive enzyme production increases, ensuring the proper and sustained absorption of vital nutrients. Blood pressure is lowered. The immune system is properly regulated. Hormones and enzymes like oxytocin and acetylcholine are stimulated, aiding the body’s general health and improving psychological.
And the benefits go on and on.

Ice baths or CWI are great for healing the body and mind.
They are good for

Eases sore and aching muscles. ...
Helps your central nervous system. ...
Limits the inflammatory response. ...
Decreases the effect of heat and humidity. ...
Trains your vagus nerve. ...
Helps fight depression and anxiety. ...
Boosts to metabolic rate. ...
Benefits your immune system. ...
Benefits you psychological and mentally. ...

Do you feel like your always putting yourself on the back burner?

You get to the end of the day and you realize you haven't done anything for yourself and perhaps that it as been too longer go that you did.

Are climbing in to bed late at night feeling physically and mentally exhausted.

Do you cry in the shower. And wonder to yourself I must just be tired and it's making me emotional.

Is this you do just brush of your feelings like emotions don't matter much, that you don't have time for them. Or perhaps you believe emotions can just go away if you ignore them

Errŕr🙄👎👎👎

Wrong the more you repress your emotions the more you brush them off or bury them deep is not going to make them go away.

Now think about how many years have you been doing this how high is the pile of emotions and traumas that your sitting on go back.

Do you know unresolved emotional wounds can create behavior patterns and you find the same old story repeating itself through your life until you resolve.

Don't suffer for your whole life as a victim to you past wounds. You can heal your emotions and traumas.

What ever story your telling yourself that you dont deserve happiness or love or your not worth etc etc.

Stop. Take ownership and take action.

Yes it's hard
Yes its scarey
Yes it can be painful
But....
There is f**ken rainbow at the end.

You. Can. Do. It

You can heal your traumas.

What area do you feel needs attention first

This is my work space, my healing room, where I make the magick medicine happen. I am hoping to have my labels made and my herbal blends bagged by September and my website open and ready to take orders by October.
This journey has been so fulfilling, joyful, passionate, a highlight of my year, healing nourishing and more work then I anticipated but I'm not complaining because its been completely worth it and rewarding.
