Ready for Summer?

New York summer…short lived and active!  Here are my top five items to get you through summer cool, calm and definitely not itching!

I love our Pure Face Toner iced, yes!   Store it in the refrigerator and mist on cool, your skin will thank you!

Our Bye, Bye Bugs all natural bug spray,  all the barbecues and picnics could/should not happen without this product!

Once Bitten insect bite formula, my absolute favorite product for the summer!  It totally treats bites immediately, but the best part it doubles as a first aid spray for cuts, bruises and nicks, in the season of bare arms, backs and legs!

Favorite summer tea blend Chill Out!  Great for keeping you cool from the inside. Good for your circulation and keeps the blood moving during these hot months.

Beautiful Skin Tea, pretty much self explanatory, right?  But, beautiful summer skin really does begin on the inside!

So there you are!  Stop by the Apothecary and see me soon!  Not able to make it?  Visit us at  Sacred Vibes Apothecary online.

Restoral, Renewal and Regeneration

Happy New Year! The body is built to regenerate; and so is the Spirit. At Sacred, we are aware now solidly aware that in this space miracles happen! Many of our customers are not quite sure of the reason they walk in our doors and yet they leave finding whatever healing it is they needed in that moment. It is overwhelming for my human form to even begin to grasp what occurs on a daily basis in Sacred.

Sacred is here to provide the support needed for regeneration of both body and spirit. Leann and I are resolved to continue our own healing process so that we can better serve you by being present!

We are also opening up our apothecary to you and invite you to join us for quarterly conversations that nudge us onward for each season.

Are you holding Loss, Grief and Heartache in your Body?

Most, if not all of us have experienced loss in our lives. In these times, do we find our self loosing our breath and feeling tightness in the chest in response? Often this occurs when we haven’t given ourselves the permission or time to grieve, that grief then gets stored in our body. The introspectiveness of the Fall and Winter season might give rise to those feeling all over again and we may feel our body react in response.

The indigenous believed that unexpressed grief gets stored away in our lungs and interrupts our breath. The release of loss, disappointment and heartache therefore benefits the health of our respiratory system. Letting go, exhaling is not just physiological jargon, but in actuality is very real in the functioning of our out-breath. Our voice is also considered to be our out-breath, when the voice is weak or restricted the lungs are also weak. If your voice is strong, its a great indication that your lungs are healthy. Given expression the energy that was stanated by grief can now be released and that action restores health to the respiratory system.

Bear in mind too that the cold and wind of this season can also aggravate any energy congestion in the lungs and cause you to loose your voice or expression.

Here are my top products for lung health:

Breath Easy Tea – A great blend for asthmatic concerns.
Restorative Lung Tonic – Restoring health to the lungs.
Hydrating Sinus Mist – Soothe your sinuses naturally.
Bronchial Congestion Syrup – Release lung congestion.
Lung and Allergy Tonic – Nourish the lungs naturally.

Take a look at our Pinterest Exhale! Board for some of my favorite herbal items to help you breath deeply. Keep up with us on our Facebook or Twitter pages for more on our products and services.

Love,
Karen
