Mind + Body Alignment
After realizing that medications to manage my anxiety were not going to work for me, most of the time they made my symptoms worse, I started to find natural products that could help me manage. Of course, I’m not a trained professional but these are just things I have found work for me. It may not be for everyone and as always consult your doctor. These are just things I have found that I LOVE to use daily or in extreme bouts of anxiety.

How To Know If You’re Going Through an Ego Death
What is ego death? First, one must bring it back a layer and start with the ego… Ego death ultimately involves our ego. Ego is the Latin word for “I,” In the simplest sense, the ego is defined as “a person’s sense of self-esteem or self-importance.” Our ego is where we develop our sense of self, usually well-defined (or at least you think) at a young age. Which makes sense; kids are always so sure of who they are and stand in their convictions. However, this sense of self can often wavier over time once the outside world becomes stronger than the “I” we had believed in for so long.…

Anxiety Soother by Herb Pharm – an easy, go-to support
Natural Remedy For Anxiety Relief One of my favorite products I found to manage my anxiety I came across at my local co-op is a liquid supplement by Herb Pharm. What I absolutely love is that their products are certified organic or made with certified organic ingredients. What they are not able to grow enough of in Oregon they make sure to source ethically from growers and wildcrafters across the globe. Just in case you’re wondering because I didn’t know at first; wildcrafters are people who harvest plants from their natural, or ‘wild’ habitat, for food or medicinal purposes. Now you can say you learned something new today 😁. From…

My Normal May Not Be Your Normal
How Do We Define Normal? We’re told from a young age what the steps are in life that will make us be responsible, happy adults. Go to school, graduate high school, go to college, graduate college, get a good job, get married, have kids…and on it goes. As if life is supposed to just be this one extensive checklist of things to do, and then we’re taught to believe that doing these things will make us happy. That you made it in life. Not the case for everyone. Not everyone is wired the same, and that is OK. That’s what makes this world so exciting and unique. We are not…

I’ve even included a little print out on the seven chakras to help guide you…

In researching and learning about the four elements, I’ve concluded that there are indeed 5. Well, I guess that depends on where you’re looking for your research. Some stop at the core four elements, and some include this fifth element. The core four elements are Air, Earth, Water, and Fire. Each of these elements helps make up our being, the psychical world around us, and everything in it. Each element connects to the other, and one…
