I love Bear Earth Herbals salves! Lemon Balm is one of my favorites!

Stressed anyone? It’s going around. Help yourself up off the ground with Lemon Balm. It’s a go-to stress reliever that “addresses the heavy but keeps it light” 💚

The way we speak to ourselves directly influences brain activity. When you catch yourself saying “I’m overwhelmed” and replace it with “I need to decide what matters most and go slow,” you trigger a mental shift that helps your nervous system transition from stress to focus.

Psychologists explain that negative self-talk activates the brain’s alarm system, increasing cortisol levels and heightening the feeling of chaos. This stress response disrupts attention, working memory, and decision-making, making tasks feel unmanageable. Reframing thoughts with intentional language signals the prefrontal cortex to regain control, organize information, and prioritize tasks effectively.

By consciously choosing phrases that promote clarity, the brain reduces hyperarousal and restores cognitive order. This simple mental exercise improves problem-solving, emotional regulation, and resilience under pressure. Over time, regularly using structured, calming self-talk rewires neural pathways, making the brain more adept at managing stress before it escalates.

In practice, replacing “I’m overwhelmed” with a focused, deliberate statement is a small but powerful tool. It helps the mind pause, assess priorities, and approach challenges with strategy and composure. Words shape the brain, and reframing thoughts can turn chaos into clarity.

Sol Rah Spirit will be here to lead us on a healing experience with painting and sound frequency. We will be including the stones associated with the energy centers of the body along with Essential Oils and Sound frequency to clear and activate the energy of the Solar Plexus and Heart centers. (This is part 2 of a 4 part series)

What does the Solar Plexus energy center do and how can this benefit you? Solar Plexus is our center of personal power. This is the place within that we get that “gut feeling”. It’s the place where we dig in to find the courage and resolve to bring our ideas and projects into existence.

What does the Heart energy system do and how can this benefit you? Heart center is our center of love. Love for others. Love for oneself. This center is also about our physical heart. There’s so much to say about this center that I could go on and on.

What do the stones have to do with it? Stones are made up of the same minerals that our within our bodies. Specific stones have specific minerals that support specific functions in our bodies. Stones also hold frequencies and vibration that can support us.
What does Sound have to do with anything? Notice the way certain music, vibration, frequencies affect your mood and the way you feel.

Cost is $55 which includes 2 canvases and all supplies including the stones we will be using.
Please RSVP as space is limited.ab

🔥 How important it is to lean into Community 🔥

I came up with this drawing this week while struggling to keep my center of wellbeing. This long cold winter has begun to take its toll especially these last 5 days of relentless snow and rain and very little sunshine.

This week has been a time of digging deep into staying in the moment not looking into the future not looking back at the past. But quite literally bringing myself constantly bringing myself back into the present moment and reminding myself of the gifts present.

This is the importance of leaning into community, into your tribe. Monday and Tuesday evening I spent time with a good friend welcoming in the New Moon/Solar Eclipse/Fire Horse.
Wednesday was spent working on this drawing with another friend. This drawing represents my commitment to community. To bringing people together from all directions and nations in unity under one sacred fire. To creating safe space for all to feel welcome.
Thursday I met with a lovely new friend, Julie at . It was a really great day for good conversation and to nourish my heart spending time with someone who also has a strong drive for community.
Yesterday I struggled through the day to feeling exhausted and defeated. Feelings that thankfully don’t usually trouble me but leaning in and sitting with it to discover what was really happening. Under it all, I found that I really just needed to be nourished. Not with food but with community. These last 5 days of what has seemed like never ending snow and gloom, of being indoors and without sun had me feeling depleted.
I share this in community because I don’t believe I’m the only one feeling this way. And I share this today to invite you to step into Illuminate today to experience community as we join with Sol Rah Spirit for Soul Lightening Sound meditation. Being immersed in the vibration of sound and light breaks up stagnation in our cellular being and stimulate the nervous system to vibrate at a higher frequency. There is plenty of scientific research you an access on this subject to learn exactly how this works on your body’s physiology.

Our new mantra that showed up this past weekend: “No Matter What Happens, Adjust Accordingly”
