Luminous - Days of Summer Apothecary Kit
Delight - Tulsi, Rose and Hawthorne Magical Simple Syrup (7 oz.)
This simple syrup, simply put :-), is a wealth of kitchen magic with a potent dose of nerve-soothing healing and heart-mending medicine for good measure. It is a culinary delight to infuse your life, and beverages, with ease, levity, pure peace, and joy.
Medicinally, Delight interweaves the calming, cooling and soothing qualities of rose with the stabilizing and tonifying properties of tulsi and hawthorne. It is specifically relevant to mending, supporting, and restoring the heart to well-being on all levels.
Delight is very versatile - it can be imbibed by the teaspoon on its own in a slow and savoring way, mixed into an assortment of beverages, and/or drizzled over summer desserts or fruits. My personal favorite is to mix it with sparkling water and maybe a touch of fresh lemon juice.
Filtered water and organic ingredients - tulsi leaves and flowers, rose petals, hawthorne berries, sugar - flower essences of peony, wild rose, cherry blossom - gem elixirs of pink calcite and pink opal - vodka as a preservative.
1 tsp - 1 tbsp of syrup per 8 oz of tea, sparkling water, or other beverage of your choice - great for mocktails and cocktails, also lovely in plant milks chilled over ice. or accompanying your favorite desserts. You can also pop a few drops to a teaspoon into your water bottle medicinally.
Amber Rose Body Balm (4 oz.)
This body balm is hands-down one of the most popular potions I’ve made throughout the years. And, because I make things in slow, small batches with sincere attention to detail, it sells out every time. This deeply nourishing skin magic has a particular affinity with the sultry magic of summer.
Ingredients - organic light olive oil, organic coconut oil, local beeswax, filtered water, organic essential oils of rose and amber resin, peony flower essence and gem elixirs of pink calcite and pink opal.
Apply liberally to your whole body (best after a shower or bath to improve absorption) if your skin runs dry. You can even use it as a night cream on your face.
Heart Healing Rose Balm (1 oz.)
The ultimate for lips, lushness, and phenomenal soothing properties - I first became obsessed with the idea of making a rose-scented lip balm back in the 80’s when I was a new baby herbalist because I couldn’t find one anywhere. In the decades since, some have popped up, but I’ve yet to find one as lovely as this.
Organic ingredients: rose petal infused light olive oil, local beeswax, castor oil, rose attar, alkanet root. wild rose flower essence and rose quartz gem elixir.
This balm adheres and stays put beautifully. It is richly nourishing, gently medicinal and very versatile - use it on your lips, cuticles, back of your (dry, gardening, or sun-baked) hands, or directly on your heart for healing when you need it. A lovely and convenient feature about this tiny treasure is that you can easily take it with you anywhere you go.
Pink Sky - Medicine of Softening Mist 4 oz
Imbued with the medicine of Summer dawn, this blessing mist invites ease, grace, softening and the experience of sanctuary in which these states can rightfully be welcomed. Joy is a medicine inherent to this beautiful planet, and, sometimes we have to drop our weary, calcified armor to feel it. Pink Sky is for both immediate relief in straining situations - AND long-term healing through sustained support with softening. It helps us to release stubborn wounds and/or emotional scar tissue and reclaim our inherent luminosity.
Ingredients: Pink Sky works with a combination of olfactory magic (organic rose and angelica) and stunning resonant medicines of peony flower essence and gem elixirs of pink calcite and pink opal.
Mist liberally on your face, your pillow, your body after a shower or swim, your bedroom by moonlight - you get the idea.
Love Dust - A Medicine of Sacred Alignment
In the beginning, there was Earth’s song - a song of resplendent generosity and belonging that is inherent to our Grandmother planet. While the song, and this medicine, are soft and shimmering, make no mistake: Love Dust also embodies the fierce protective qualities of the Mother because the time is now for course correction. Love Dust is created to restore Earth’s Song and turn the hearts of haters in the defense of everything beautiful on earth. This sweet and innocent looking little pink potion is actually a call to action, a reckoning dust that issues a loving but fierce invitation back into right relationship with all life on earth - an invitation into remembering our place in the wide Family of Creation.
Organic ingredients - pink salt, pink clay, pink rose buds, food grade bronze mica, and a proprietary blend of potent, transformational resonant medicines.
Love dust is a potent realigning medicine - to welcome this alignment in your own being, sprinkle some on your pillow, or in your bath, and hold the clear intention of casting out and transmuting unsavory thoughts and energies. Fill the space of your being with rose-colored light.
Learning to work with medicine such as this with others or in your activism involves a complex body of teachings and considerations. If this moves you, you can find my thoughts and philosophy on it in an oral teaching here.
