    And so begins a new series on flower essences! Thanks to Black Rabbit Tea Lady for bringing “flower essences” to my attention — something I have just recently learned about and continue to educate myself on.

  • I tried taking a DNA test!

    For a while now, I’ve been super curious about taking a DNA test. In the past few years it’s become fairly popular. I did feel a little strange about sending someone my DNA, but I thought it would be so cool to see what the results say. *This is NOT a sponsored post!* Click here

  • The Path of Poisonous Plant Medicine (Intro)

    As I have learned more and more about plant medicine through the years, I have just now recently found myself drawn to “poisonous plant medicine” — a seemingly dangerous yet actually healing path.

  • I tried “Soul Drops” — Legal Microdosing

    Microdosing is a term coined by the psychedelic community that involves ingestion at a minuscule dosage, producing extremely subtle yet beneficial effects. It is the opposite of “macro-dosing,” or the “normal dose.” It would be equivalent to taking a sip of coffee rather than drinking the whole cup. Most psychedelic plants or substances (lab-made extracts
