For Heavy Hearts
If your heart is feeling a little battered by shootings, wars, floods & fires you’re not alone. I don’t know what to say other than to offer some moments of beauty - sounds, scents, tonics & totems I return to for heavy hearts & frayed nerves.
Sounds - aural heart balm in this Music for Plants compilation, 2021 album The Wind, and always favorite podcast episode The Inner Landscape of Beauty
Scents - heart soothing rosy notes in our Tenderness Smokeless Ritual Incense and matching Tenderness Chocolate
Tonics - for emotional grief & wellbeing this Wooden Spoon Herbs tincture, or a first aid flower remedy by Alexis Smart
Totems - the world is your totem, always keep one in your pocket. This little rock from home (New Zealand) is mine - what’s yours?
Wishing you light,
Emx
