Rose in Bloom

I love roses. Not just getting them, because I also buy them for myself to lift the mood, but because the fragrance. I’ve used roses for a number of love spells and products that I make. Roses have a feminine energy and are associated with many of the Deities such as Isis, Adonis, Cupid and Aurora.  Rose petals or rose hips have been used in healing spells and mixtures for centuries.  It is said that when sprinkled around the house, rose petals calm personal stress and personal upheavals. 

Did you know that you can eat flowers? Certain flowers have been shown to contain important nutrients. Used in herbal medicine, rose petals with its sweet and warmth acts on the liver and spleen. In healing, it is used to dry colds, clear mucus discharges and harmonizes blood."Bacteria die within five minutes when contacted with fresh rose petals which makes rose a perfect medicine for fighting skin diseases. Fresh rose petals will help cure festering wounds and burns; they may also alleviate allergic itching. Ancient doctors used rose water to treat upset nerves, fumed patients suffering from lungs diseases with rose incense and gave extracts of rose petals to patients suffering from heart and kidney diseases."

Sacred Space

In the movie Eat, Pray, Love, Julia Roberts’ character is trying to meditate when her mind starts to drift off into decorating her own meditation room when she returns to NYC. I can relate. I said to myself and others I am sure, that when I purchase my next house, I am going to make sure one of the rooms is designated for meditating. I picked out the paint swatches, meditation pillow, candles, wall décor and the works!! Towards the end of the movie, the guy says to Julia Roberts, “The meditation room is within Groceries.”

The other day I was watching the movie Sucker Punch. (I watch a lot of movies, can you tell?) I have seen this movie a million times and never noticed at the end of the movie the narrator says, “you can escape any world by going within to your sacred space.” Well duh. Do you see where I am going with this? (I receive a lot of messages from movies ya know.) I had created this small little space in my walk in closet. I had a small table in which to put things on, candles and so forth and a little pillow. I never use the space. I generally sit on the bed and meditate or use my comfy office chair where I do a lot of my writing. The moral of this blog is that you don’t need an elaborate space or even a large space to access that sacred space within. I have met people who have carved tiny spaces in their bedrooms dedicated to meditation. Nothing fancy, a few items sacred to them and their purpose was all that was needed.   

Sacred space is within, have you found yours yet?

More Carrots than Bugs Bunny!!

The other day, the WorthCoach and I were discussing the contents of our refrigerator. She stated that she had received a boat load of carrots and didn’t know what she was going to do with them. I had received a couple of bags myself that were almost on their way out when given they were given to me. I didn’t want to throw them away but had to do something and quickly. We came up with, well juice them. 

Juicing is the best!! Fresh juices from juicing contain vitamins, minerals, enzymes and fluids necessary for body function. Carrots are loaded with vitamins and minerals. Extremely high in pro-vitamin A and contains vitamins B, C, D, E and K. The minerals found in carrots are calcium, phosphorous, potassium, sodium and trace minerals.  Skin and hair benefit from the protein and minerals found in carrots. While I am not particularly found of plain carrot juice, when mixed with other juices, it can be quite tasty. For example this healthy bone tonic supplies calcium for maintenance of healthy bones which includes 6 carrots, 4 kale leaves, 4 sprigs of parsley and half an apple. Drink up!!

Garnet: The Blood Stone

Every year I began with a fast. Last year I added a specific crystal healing to my fast using Garnet gemstones.  “Garnet comes from the word Granatum, which refers to the seed of a pomegranate. Garnet is a root chakra stone and provides a sense of rootedness for facilitating tasks.” Since it is an Earth element stone, it also provides grounding energy. They are conductors of past-life memories and are memory sharpeners. Garnets promote compassion of the world and self and help a person to let go. I use them on my root chakra to help stay grounded. Garnets also assist the liver and kidneys in ridding the body of toxins.

Losing Weight with Tumeric

Since it’s still early in the year, I thought I would keep in the flow of weight loss.  I am a big fan of herbs and spices in case you haven’t noticed. Whether it’s in teas, elixirs and tinctures or just sprinkled on my food, there are tremendous amounts of health benefits to gain by adding herbs to your daily diet. Turmeric is a spicy, bitter but warm herb. “It regulates the menses, aids digestion, dissolves gallstones, and decongests the liver. It is also good for improving the blood moving properties of myrrh.” Turmeric has also been used in Hawaiian magic for purification.

To workout or Not workout.... That is the question.

All of the gyms are packed. This is the time of the year where the gyms make their quotas the most. One of the gyms I applied for to be a personal trainer contacted ME for a free day at the gym and to join their gym. Seeing how there was a change in management, I didn't hold it against him.

I have journeyed to several of the gyms in my little town and what I have found in common is that most of them do not offer a holistic workout package. A holistic workout program should offer information on diet & nutrition, herbal supplements, the workout itself and all the means necessary to lose weight and or maintain the weight that you are at if you are comfortable with it.

A lot of people want to lose weight and eat right but don't know where to start. As I have observed many people in gyms, a lot of people don't know what they are doing. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone trained in the art of health and wellness to assist you? Get you started? The gym can be a scary place and intimidating to see others LOOKING like they know what they are doing and enjoying it. You can be one of those people. That’s where I come in. As a holistic health practitioner, I can offer a complete package. A full consultation will determine which program is right for you.
