✨✨Last week I held a beautiful closing of the bones ceremony for a very special mother✨✨

If you're in your postpartum period and feel ready to honour this transition and find a sense of closure, I'm offering this as part of my holistic postpartum care. DM me if you feel called.

On my last day in Guatemala, I find myself reflecting on how wonderful this trip has been. I am in awe of all that this past month has held. A month full of adventure, exploration, and—most importantly—transformation and centering, a return to myself ✨🌀

I’ve felt so welcomed by her people.
I’ve felt held by her volcanoes, standing still and strong, quietly watching and witnessing from a distance, witnessing to all that unfolds.
I’ve felt deeply embraced by her beautiful, magical Lake Atitlán. I’ve connected with it in a special way, and it now holds a piece of my heart💙

I still don’t quite have the words to describe how transformational these last nine days have been. I’ve had the honour and privilege of apprenticing with a very special elder, a wisdom keeper, alongside her daughters—Mayan midwives who follow the Mayan cosmovision.
Something sacred has been shared, something I'm still learning how to carry.

🤍🤍🤍I return home with deep gratitude—humbled, open-hearted, centered, and rooted🤍🤍🤍

I know the rhythm of London will feel loud at first, perhaps jarring, so I will give myself the space to land slowly, to integrate, to listen. And when the time feels right, I will begin again—holding space for those who feel called to work with herbal medicine🌿

If that’s you, I’d love to hear from you😌

🌱Wild oats is one of my absolute favourite! It is a very gentle herb making it ideal for everyday use. I prescribe it for people experiencing high stress to help them wind down in the evenings and help them sleep better. Oats are highly nourishing and nutritious full of minerals like calcium, magnesium, silica, iron and vitamins. Oats are vital to a healthy nervous system. Wild oats are relaxing and strengthening at the same time.
Lavender, another one of my favourites always present in my herbal cupboard. Lavender calms the mind and lifts the spirits. It is a great ally for stress and sleeping difficulties. Lavender helps you to focus and concentrate.

Passion flower, such a stunning flower! It is a magnificent relaxant and sedative as well as an antispasmodic making it particularly useful for muscle twitching and cramps. I love having passion flower before and during my bleed.
🍃Lemon balm has the most delightful aroma in my opinion. Lemon balm was brought by the Romans who valued it to clear the mind, improve memory and lift the spirits. It reduces tension and has restorative properties. Lemon balm is useful for protecting the nervous system against free radical damage and preventing age related mental decline due to its antioxidant rosmarinic acid.
🌹Oh, Rose, wonderful Rose. The queen herb for the heart. I might be biased because I am going through a Rose phase, and I have connected deeply with this herb. Rose has long been valued for strengthening the heart and refreshing the spirit. Rose is restoring and calming and can be used in cases of irritability, anger and mental fatigue.
Which one of these do you have in your cupboard or maybe your garden? If you do, I invite you to smell it, connect with it and maybe make a cup of tea with it.

Herbie client love!


I was happy to support this client to feel healthy again. Usually, different complaints will manifest in the body in a wide variety of ways and in different body systems. The amazing thing about a holistic assessment is that the root cause of all those signs is identified allowing us to support and strengthen the body accordingly restoring health💚✨


✨Your body is constantly talking to you, listen to it✨
