The first piece is kambaba jasper, obsidian, and has moss agate. Kamba jasper promotes love, Grounding, calm, compassion, and balance. Obsidian serves as a shield against negativity, grounding, trauma healing, clarity, and moss agate specializes in grounding, protection, and a harmonizer of intellectual, emotional, and physical energy to bring harmony.

The second piece consists of labradorite, shiva eye shell and obsidian beads
Labradorite is for spiritual protection, emotional balance, a shield against negativity, helps with overcoming fears, and so much more. Shiva eye shell works on the third eye and is all about protection, intuition, and transformation. It’s also known as a fertility stone and helps with fatigue. Obsidian is very root chakra based and can aid in meditation, energy work, and self reflection. Shipping is available.

Something I feel called to more and more is crafting. Not just about jewelry to be worn as fashion, but to have tools accessible which support in whatever work we are doing.

I’ve started this program which will be happening weekly for the next 52 weeks. 2 hours of classes weekly plus calling and receiving weekly mentor phone calls and assignments. This is to break the gendered patriarchal programming. To rise above. To know the past doesn’t have to be repeated. I believe I can do better, that we can do better if given the knowledge, tools, resources, and support. Let me know if you want more information about this program and I’ll get you the information. I believe in my ability to overcome. I believe in your ability to overcome. Breath by breath. Moment by moment.

I’ve been adding some extra classes in :) It has been such a great honor to practice with so many of you over the past years. I see you, beautiful humans. It has been beautiful seeing some new folks come in to experience what these practices have to offer. There’s a lot of ritual and community at the core, as these are such important aspects of our wellness. Through these times of dehumanization, conflict, and turmoil, we need spaces to remind us of our power and to take up space. We are stronger as a collective.

A study comparing the herb Rhodiola to the antidepressant Sertraline (Zoloft) found that both reduced depression symptoms, but Rhodiola produced significantly fewer side effects and was far better tolerated.

The study was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, meaning participants were randomly assigned to receive either Rhodiola, Sertraline, or a placebo, and neither the participants nor the researchers knew who was receiving which treatment until the end.

Both Rhodiola and Sertraline showed improvements in depression symptoms and while Sertraline had a slightly greater effect at reducing depressive symptoms, Rhodiola was much more favorable in terms of risk-to-benefit ratio, particularly for mild to moderate depression. There is also no withdrawal once Rhodiola is stopped compared to the extreme withdrawal symptoms experienced once Zoloft or other antidepressants are stopped.

Another positive in choosing Rhodiola over a prescription antidepressant is that Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb that works to heal your body from stress related hormone imbalances and other health issues that cause depression. This means Rhodiola could provide immediate relief from depression while also working to heal your body from the root cause of the depression.

Please always research before starting any new herbs especially if you’re pregnant, nursing, on any prescription medications or have any diagnosed medical conditions. It is not advisable to combine Rhodiola with ANY antidepressants. You must choose one or the other

Today I’m sharing a little bit about what healthy kink dynamics look like. They involve clear, vulnerable, honest communication. In American culture, there’s an overwhelming amount of movies, songs, p**n, etc which raise curiosity regarding kink, but plant the seeds that create unsafe situations. When you and an intimate partner share a space which involves kink, it’s referred to as a “scene.” We need to know when that scene is beginning and when it is ending. Mindful discussion needs to take place leading up to each scene which gives the dominant (D) and submissive (s) a clear understanding of what to expect. Scenes that haven’t been discussed prior (negotiation) run the risk of violating boundaries not only to for what the s is willing to receive but also for what the D is willing to do. Particularly if there is past trauma involved, one or both can fawn in these spaces which is doing what they think is expected of them, at the detriment of their own boundaries, often times not feeling as though they’re able to say no. The form that you see with this article is not fully comprehensive, but offers some ideas for talking points. Credit goes to theduchy.com
It can be so challenging for many of us to share what our needs and wants are, so this helps us think more specifically what we would like the scene to include, and it also creates a space to share what we would not like a scene to include. For example yesterday perhaps I was craving sh***ri (rope play) but I had a trauma flashback that’s close to the surface so today it is on my “no” list. I encourage safe connecting activities leading up to a scene as well as aftercare which can involve the D expressing care, empathy, sensitivity, and asking the s “what do you need from me right now?” “How do I help you feel safe and cared about?” It can also be a great idea to revisit processing the scene for a post-check in to explore what each person was feeling and if there’s anything that needs to be discussed. When done properly with intention, kink can be deeply connecting and rewrite trauma histories, creating a deep safety. My therapy is kink informed and I welcome you!

Anyone feeling the need to be in community is welcome here. To me, yoga is about coming together to hold, express, and address whatever it is we are carrying individually and collectively. Yoga is political and is a space to feel and address the injustices that happen around us. The culture of white supremacy counts on us being disconnected so connection is resistance work. Connection to ourselves, each other, and the land.

As esoteric as I am, I am a scientist and a researcher as well. The recent claims that Tylenol causes autism is unfounded. It’s also yet another way to place the blame on woman as the patriarchy loves to do. The language being utilized is based in eugenics and ableism and is incredibly dangerous. Autism isn’t a plague which needs to be eradicated. Neurodivergence deserves to be celebrated and honored. Autism is one of the many facets which creates diversity culturally and breathes life into variety, love, hope, connection, invention, etc.

The cacao I have used to share in yoga practices from the start can no longer be sourced ethically due to the very real threat and implications of global warming. Momma Earth is screaming and this is another reminder. It’s natural for growing zones to shift very gradually over time, but the rate at which it’s happening now is due to human influence. Let’s be clear that large corporations are primarily responsible for this shift. Yes each of us can do much to reduce our impact in the ways we’re able to as Momma Earth deserves. Pushing back against consumerism by being mindful of what we consume can help which leads me to think about Santosha, one of the Niyamas from yogic philosophy. These are the personal observances which can help us to move through the world with more intention. As we find more contentment within, we feel the desire to consume less. How can we all move with a little more intention? I ask myself that today as some old wounds bubble up to be noticed and loved more deeply. All is connected. As we heal, our home planet heals all well. All the love.
