Who I Am and What I Do

Welcome!

​

My Herbal Journey
It began when I started looking for different holistic ways to help manage my Fibromyalgia, which I was diagnosed in 2016. I found that by using different essential oils I could help keep my mood balanced when I was going through a flare up. Ritual has become very important to me in learning to focus my energy. Learning the spiritual traditions behind essential oil use was the natural progression of my interest in this healing practice as I delve into my Pagan Ukrainian roots.
Incorporating the folklore benefits of dried herbs seemed like a natural addition to my blends as it was a way to tie in my love for gardening and my belief in the energy of herbs and plants.
I am now studying to be an Herbalist through Wild Rose College so that I can learn the science of Herbal Medicine to be able to incorporate all these things together into a professional practice to help others.

​

I am so happy to share these blends and other goodies with you and hope they can help you on whatever journey you may be on in this life. I believe in the power of herbal remedies and ritual to help physically, mentally and emotionally.

A little bit about my practice and what the word witch means to me…

I am a woman of Mother Earth. I feel her pulsating through my veins and work to synchronize myself with the cycles of nature. I feel the power in the gifts nature has given to us to work with as tools for healing. In nature's cycle there is both life and death. Dark and light. All of these facets must be recognized and honoured. When I pray and ask for guidance it’s to my ancestors, for it’s their blood that flows through me making me who I am. I don’t worship a particular God or Deity. I believe in the power of thought and energy which surrounds every living thing. I believe in the power of the mind and it’s intent. We are all connected by this energy. One living, breathing thing. I am an observer, a mover of energy and a woman of nature. Daily ritual to me is incredibly important. It’s about setting the intent for my energy and taking control of it using the tools given to me by Mother Earth and my ancestors.
