In this world of constant change, we frequently lose touch with our dreams, our hopes, and our desires. In order to keep up with the constant change, our focus becomes external. Our quest for happiness is reduced to an outward quest. A search for more of everything. As we amass more, we feel fragmented unable to find time for ourselves, let alone the time to perhaps pursue our hearts desire.As a result, we experience stress, fatigue, depression… maybe even illness.
Let us consider the alchemy that can transform our lives.
The word Alchemy, conjures up the romantic lore of a great wizard endowed with a secret wisdom.

Alchemy, however, is not the sole propriety of legend and lore. Alchemy is found everywhere. Especially in nature.
Consider the metamorphosis of the earthly caterpillar. She spins her cocoon, and in her own time, breaks free and takes flight… a brilliantly hued butterfly.
Alchemy occurs when a grain of sand creates friction in an oyster. And is then transformed into a lovely pearl.
The diamond, perhaps nature’s most astounding alchemical feat, begins as a lowly lump of coal, and after many years of pressure is transformed into an extraordinary gem.
Each of us in our heart desires peace, health, harmony and joy. And rightly so, for these are our birthright. In order to realize our birthright, we must trust that these gifts are indeed ours. We must surrender any belief that is contrary, and then we must claim the gift of peace, health, harmony and joy. We must do this daily. Sometimes even hourly. Particularly during times of darkness. We must practice releasing beliefs and habits that keep us from experiencing our birthright. In so doing, we soon develop clarity. We become stronger, more serene, and more able to love ourselves, and to love others.
I believe strongly in Personal Rituals. Those practices and routines that we may, or may not do on a daily basis that reconnect us with ourselves, and help us to regain focus. Even the simplest ritual performed while showering or bathing, can focus one on what is truly important in life. By directing awareness inward, we are able to commune with our most intuitive and creative self. The object of Personal Alchemy products is to support you in creating your own personal rituals, while doing those things that you already do, such as caring for your body. By performing daily rituals with mindfulness, and by using healing botanicals and essential oils, you can heal your body, mind and spirit.
Namaste,
