Here is a great hack I discovered...put a drop or two of your favorite essential oil in your mask before you put it on & it truly transforms the experience! Today I used grapefruit...citrus oils are detoxifying & uplift our mood. I put on guard & copaiba on before my last trip to the market & it was a much more pleasant experience...calmed me & gave me a protective boost!! What oil are u going to try in your mask?? #essentialoils #oilprotection #doterraessentialoils #weareallinthistogether #maskprotection #selfsoothingtips #selfsoothingformentalhealth #onguardessentialoil #copaibaessentialoil #grapefruitessentialoil #stayhome #stayconnected #thisisalltemporary #somaticexperiencing #merciertherapy

In honor of National Infertility Awareness week I wanted to share the cool African goddess Oshun. She came from an artist in West Africa & was brought back by my grandparents decades ago. I now have her here in my office, supporting fertility for all those who need it. Calling on the healing power of our ancestors can be settling & reassuring, especially right now in this time of uncertainty. I invite you to call on the power & strength of your ancestors who collectively have... moved through & overcome so many hardships. I honor & support all you moving through your own journey, and I am here supporting you! . #nationalinfertilityawarenessweek #merciertherapyla #fertilityjourney #merciertherapy #thestruggleisreal #ancestors #ancestorhealing #fertilitygoddess #oshungoddess #covid19support #somaticexperiencing #keephopealive #fertilitycommunity #stayconnected #wereallinthistogether
