a flower essence for navigating deep grief

Work with this flower if you are feeling immense grief that has no end in sight. If you’re feeling lost, disconnected from yourself, like a ship lost at sea with no clear direction on where to go.

Violet flowers are the reaching hand of Aphrodite, calling you back to be held by the Earth. Let the life moving around hold you, let yourself integrate fully to the ecosystem of your bubble. As you work with this essence, make space for yourself to connect with outside- whether that’s a small walk in the morning, sitting by an open window, or sitting on your patio wrapped in a blanket. Violet essence was born on the cusp of winter and spring, in the thick of dark, rainy days where the sun is more than just a distant hope but not consistent enough to be a friend. The flowers represent the journey you’re on; through the underworld, not quite sure how it relates to the land of the living. You don’t need to know. Violet will hold you through it.

To use: place a dropperful on your tongue whenever grief is threatening to consume you and imagine the earth holding you. You are not alone. Close your eyes, notice the bright flavors, and imagine a violet flower beckoning you forward. 

Ingredients: distilled water, marionberry infused spirits, organic vegetable glycerin, essences of violet flower, apple seed, and the liminal space of twilight.

Have you ever kept a Lunar calendar? It’s one of my favorite things for tracking my moon cycle, mood, and ritual practices. Here is the rundown of a Lunar calendar, but I recommend doing your own research if you’re as smitten by it as I am!

The moon is in a different astrology sign every 1-3 days. The energy of that sign in turn influences the mood of the day. For example, when the moon is in Cancer you might feel like a homebody, wanting to stay in your PJ’s and tend to family matters (great for building Altars!). You’ll be able to intuitively feel into the wisdom of your body through the energies of the moon phases, related astrology, and magical practices. You can simply google what sign the moon is in on any given day or keep a planner to jot down your Lunar associations, though a Lunar Calendar is always an amazing magical tool to have around!

Here is a list of the Astro Signs and their “flavor” or common characteristics. Use this to develop your own spell work (hop on the Seagrape Babes membership site or blog to learn more if you’d like some guidance), track the way you are affected emotionally, or to help you tap into different parts of your body while journaling. Is the Moon in Taurus? Time to tend to your home and beauty principles by adding some soft, sensual textures, cooking a meal with magical intention (and herbs), sweeping with intention (with a beautiful broom, of course), or burning a grounding candle. Spell work can be anything you do within a magical mind frame- even making your morning coffee if you whisper an intention into it.

If feeling creative, use the qualities of the elements each sign represents to influence your journal prompts or create little rituals like elemental Altars for yourself. Browse the website for more magical ideas!

Better Than I Ever Expected is a warm, witty, and honest book that contends with the challenges and celebrates the delights of older-life sexuality. It asserts that women over sixty are at the top of their game when it comes to enjoying sex.
Joan Price’s woman-to-woman straight talk transcends the self-help style of other books in this field. Yes, there are challenges to sex after menopause and beyond, says Price, but there are also creative solutions. She is on a mission to let women her age and older know that they can, in fact, have the best sex of their lives. Price gets personal and stays positive, combining her own story with candid comments, tips, and sassy tales from sexually seasoned women. She acknowledges the gritty issues that older women confront in their sexual lives, noting that it’s not easy, but it certainly isn’t over.
At age 61, Price is newly engaged to the man she’s been looking for her whole life. Her discovery of how great “well-seasoned” sex can be was the inspiration for this book. Sidebars present candid and friendly sex tips; fitness, exercise, and lifestyle information; and women's erotic vignettes—both real-life experiences and fantasies.

Discover an empowering new way of understanding your multifaceted mind―and healing the many parts that make you who you are.
 
Is there just one “you”? We’ve been taught to believe we have a single identity, and to feel fear or shame when we can’t control the inner voices that don’t match the ideal of who we think we should be. Yet Dr. Richard Schwartz’s research now challenges this “mono-mind” theory. “All of us are born with many sub-minds―or parts,” says Dr. Schwartz. “These parts are not imaginary or symbolic. They are individuals who exist as an internal family within us―and the key to health and happiness is to honor, understand, and love every part.”
 
Dr. Schwartz’s Internal Family Systems (IFS) model has been transforming psychology for decades. With No Bad Parts, you’ll learn why IFS has been so effective in areas such as trauma recovery, addiction therapy, and depression treatment―and how this new understanding of consciousness has the potential to radically change our lives. Here you’ll explore:
 
• The IFS revolution―how honoring and communicating with our parts changes our approach to mental wellness
• Overturning the cultural, scientific, and spiritual assumptions that reinforce an outdated mono-mind model
• The ego, the inner critic, the saboteur―making these often-maligned parts into powerful allies
• Burdens―why our parts become distorted and stuck in childhood traumas and cultural beliefs
• How IFS demonstrates human goodness by revealing that there are no bad parts
• The Self―discover your wise, compassionate essence of goodness that is the source of healing and harmony
• Exercises for mapping your parts, accessing the Self, working with a challenging protector, identifying each part’s triggers, and more
 
IFS is a paradigm-changing model because it gives us a powerful approach for healing ourselves, our culture, and our planet. As Dr. Schwartz teaches, “Our parts can sometimes be disruptive or harmful, but once they’re unburdened, they return to their essential goodness. When we learn to love all our parts, we can learn to love all people―and that will contribute to healing the world.”
