Distilling the clarity found in the mountains

Juniper is a plant for our spirit - used all over the world, from monks in Tibet for meditation to Native Americans for purification

A hydrosol contains the distilled essence of the plant in pure water, so you have the aromatic compounds and the spirit of this beautiful plant on hand for your own rituals

I have been working with this daily, to clear my mind and to connect with the elevated energy of the mountains

*purifying, rejuvenating & soothing - for the mind, body & spirit

*makes a lovely face toner - juniper is gently cleansing, exfoliating & reduces puffiness

*brings that fresh mountain smell to your home

You can also use this as the water phase in soaps, lotions, or other formulations!

Check out my shop on nostr:npub1market6g3zl4mxwx5ugw56hfg0f7dy7jnnw8t380788mvdyrnwuqgep7hd if you want to grab a bottle. Stock will be limited until I next make a trip into the woods 🙏

Good day! I felt very happy waking up the light of dawn, birds singing, and my dogs wagging their tails waiting for me to get up this morning

Yay!

A throwback to the sweetest pups, Kali and Abbie 🥲

Abbie is grown now and too crazy to cuddle with mama anymore

#dogs #puppy #dogstr #dogsofnostr

Every time I say I’ll do it as I go. Still hasn’t happened yet 🥲

Pattern is called the Indian Flower Rug!

Finally packing this rug up to send off as a gift. It only took me a month or two to convince myself to weave in the ends 🙃

Clutter of the Mind - a poem about my yoga practice

My practice is a practice, with no prize to claim.

Each day I ride the swing from pleasure to pain.

I sit in the sorrow, the anger, the shame.

I tire of this, but it’s also the way

I’ve learned to tap into an energy that won’t fade

And see with joy the rise of each day.

So still I sit here: mind, body, spirit, and soul,

Existing together in a delicate alignment.

Peace is a seed, one I cherish and grow,

A flame I can see if I attend to its light.

I hold onto my resolve and let go of hope:

A tricky word for me, a reflection of my unknowing,

Looking outside to understand my purpose,

Hope for someone to tell me I’m worth it.

Seeing the path requires inward focus.

It turns out even the quiet holds distractions.

Knowledge requires less addition, more subtraction.

Bliss is just a moment in this human experience.

Moments of silence in between the breaths,

A place I can enter only with acceptance.

The seeking must not turn into a chase,

Grasping for truth in the ocean filled with waves.

Clarity lies in the emptiness of eternity,

Although I’m observing the nature of duality.

Instead I will fix my focus and find what is “I”,

Intercept the lonely process that leads to “mine”.

Consciousness is present in all, it does not bind.

And if my practice feels like a paradox,

That is my mind.

Still caught up in the turning of time.

My practice is a practice, with no prize to claim.

Each day I ride the swing from pleasure to pain.

I sit in the sorrow, the anger, the shame.

I tire of this, but it’s also the way

I’ve learned to tap into an energy that won’t fade

And see with joy the rise of each day.

So still I sit here: mind, body, spirit, and soul,

Existing together in a delicate alignment.

Peace is a seed, one I cherish and grow,

A flame I can see if I attend to its light.

I hold onto my resolve and let go of hope:

A tricky word for me, a reflection of my unknowing,

Hope for someone to tell me I’m worth it.
