 What Inspired me to write this article today ~

Last week one of my beautiful sisters was thought to have had a mini stroke…

Her husband went for a walk with Charley Girl their Black labby… when he came back my Sister was acting odd, he said. But then I realised that this was not a game there was something wrong! Her short term memory had gone and she was talking in the past…

My brother in Law rang her Eldest daughter who then rang me. He wanted to take her to the hospital and of course she was refusing and didn’t understand why he was trying to get her into the car~ Buy the way My sister is very stubborn and does not like hospitals. You can imagine how difficult this situation was becoming.

After a couple of phone calls from my niece and I trying to encourage My brother in Law to call an ambulance and speaking to my sister there was no advance. The problem was, was that they live in the blue mountains, her daughters live in Sydney I am in the Hunter Valley and their closest friends were away. To cut a long story short … the hardest part of it was that we couldn’t be there as soon as we would like. My niece rang an ambulance and then drove to Katoomba hospital. My other niece was trying to get away from work and couldn’t because there was no one else to cover her. We are many and spread about. We have one brother and 3 sisters in New Zealand another sister in Sydney. So much was happening phone calls and emails to keep every one in touch and up to date with what was going on. It was frightening for all of us as our Parents have passed away… Mum nearly 4 years ago and dad 6 years ago. 

Sometimes we are distant in our communications and caught up in our own lives… we get together every couple of months and have a family gathering and through FB, emails and phone calls we do most of our communicating. 

What I am I going on about?

I am proud of my family and love them all so much! When the chips are down and something like this happens we all band together like a raging fire that no one can stop. 

So my Lovely’s I am sending love, hugs ‘n’ kisses to my family and friends because I know how blessed I am.

In no particular order I thank Di, Caz, Pete, Rae, Sal, Jo, Li, Vix, all of my beautiful nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews, my friends and especially my loving Amez xxx

P.S. My lovely sis is fine and it turned out to be a reaction from another condition, which is now under control.

This is beautiful and I could play it over and over… Love Louis and love the animals!

Enjoy my Lovely’s

Heart Chakra

Aromatherapy for Grace~ A beautiful state to be in~

For Me when I think about this I immediately think of essential oils I can attune to for being in a State of Grace!

Pink Lotus, Champa, Jasmine, Neroli, Rose, Frankincense ~ within these oils I find courage strength, wisdom, transition, acceptance, unity, peace and love ~

 Aromatherapy and essential oils are a beautiful way to attune to  yourself, meditate and transform for self growth. I cannot express enough how much these Beauties from Nature have supported and enhanced every aspect of my life bringing courage, self love and the love of all.

I encourage you all to embrace the Magick of Aromatherapy ~ use essential oils in your everyday lives to support you on your journey to ‘Being in a State of Grace’

Simple ways to use your oils ~ Create your sacred space, inhale deeply, feeling the Aroma flow through every cell of your being. Stay with this for as long as you feel comfortable, Bathing is very self nurturing, diffusing your oils can be done at anytime even if are are moving around at home from room to room. If you are on the run take your Aroma inhaler so that it is available to you at any time…

Grace means more than gifts. In grace something is transcended, once and for all overcome. Grace happens in spite of something; it happens in spite of separateness and alienation. Grace means that life is once again united with life, self is reconciled with self. Grace means accepting the abandoned one. Grace transforms fate into a meaningful vocation. It transforms guilt to trust and courage. The word grace has something triumphant in it.

Thought I would give you some tid bits from my Ebook, which is coming along nicely…

Here are The Elements and some recommended their essential oil associations-

Air- frankincense, violet, myrrh yarrow

Fire- black pepper, orange, ginger, basil

Water- jasmine, chamomile, lemon, sandalwood

Earth- victoria, cedarwood, geranium, rosewood

Remember that I often relate associations to my own thoughts, feelings and experiences… 

When we are working with the elements we can use our Astrological birth charts to see what we may lack in or have more of… for example in my chart I only have one earth element… now I have always been attracted to very earthy essential oils and realised that my home is very earthy, this is because I need to be grounded and I do tend to be a bit out there at times ( Big Smiles) … this all fell in to place when I was studying astrology… I can now work with astrology and aromatherapy to bring balance into my personal life, my environment and my spiritual being.

We can also create signature blends to bring in balance on levels. I am predominant in air and water which I now understand how to work with to create the balance that I personally desire…

Love and Pleasure Always
