As I relax more into my own being and life, I am learning to retrieve my joy, creativity, and sensuality. I'm being called to live my life the best way for me, unapologetically. When I'm at my best, I do my best, and everyone around me benefits. It's a win-win. I love being a woman; however, it wasn't always like this. It wasn't until recently, in my 50s that I truly started to enjoy life and like myself with all my idiosyncrasies.
Once upon a time, in another land and another time, I believed I was unworthy of love. I felt I had to prove that I deserved love and happiness, that I had to be good to be lovable. Deep down, I felt broken and believed there was something very wrong with me. Over the years, I collected many ideas, beliefs, behaviors to support the big lie of not being good enough and that my value was measured by what I accomplished. I kept waiting for something outside of me to come and save me, making me whole. It was as if my true happiness was always elusive in some distant future, depending on some outside forces. I finally woke up. It came down to loving myself wherever I was in my life. Not in some future with a different version of myself. Now. Now. Now.
Over the last three decades, I've been on a transformational and healing path, learning to love and accept myself, accessing the light within and the truth that I am good enough. After much letting go of false beliefs and trying to fit in, I feel free, perhaps for the first time in my life. I truly believe that this sense of well-being and inner joy is available to anyone at any time they wish to access it. We can all experience the freedom of being ourselves and the comfort that comes from not having to do something to prove we are worthy. First, we have to empty ourselves from the very beliefs that kept us unhappy and under the spell that we are not enough. “If I could only lose weight, my life would be so much better,” “If I found a partner, I'd be so much happier,” “If I found my purpose in this world, I'd feel like I mattered”... and so on.
In the past few years, I had felt a lack of enthusiasm. As women, as we grow older and our bodies change, many of us seem to lose our juice, our joy, and our passion. We stop dancing. We stop singing. We stop dreaming. We forget to rejoice at our feminine essence and to honor ourselves. Some of us never really learned how to practice self-care. I decided that I wanted to not only age gracefully but also feel good doing it!
In this process of coming home to myself, I embraced my inner witch and started to create beautiful fragrances to support a new vision for my life. I used to get headaches from synthetic perfume, so I began to use Aromatherapy to make perfume for myself and my friends and family. I believe essential oils are magical beings and truly angels put here on Earth to help and guide us. Through their aroma and therapeutic benefits, they send out messages of hope, joy, love, and harmony, restoring physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual balance to our bodies and spirit. Essential oils are also very potent and highly concentrated. They are to be used with great care and respect; a little goes a long way.
After almost 30 years of working in the wellness industry and building a successful massage practice, I was ready to change gears. Adding my love for Aromatherapy to my passion for natural and organic products and my commitment to well-being, voila! This business was born.
A bit more about me:
I'm a lover of nature, laughing, music, dancing, reading, cooking, baking, traveling (but also love being home), watching movies (especially the ones that inspire me and crack my heart open), spending time with people I love, learning from my relationships (especially the one with my husband), anything related to consciousness awareness and shift, transformation, shamanism, plant medicine, kundalini yoga, meditation, and most of all, I'm a sucker for all the magic and mystery the Universe lovingly provides, including the magic within me.
My Mission and My Vision
To create magical fragrances using organic, wild-grown, and natural ingredients that inspire women to nurture self-acceptance, embrace their power, and experience a world of infinite possibilities.
Why “Magical”?
The fragrances are created with your well-being in mind. There is an intention behind all of them as I formulate them. Drawing from my intuition, my Aromatherapy background, the wisdom of my journey, as well as the extraordinary world of nature, these fragrances not only smell divine, they can support you at any time you need an emotional boost in your life. I find these fragrances to be my allies in my own life, making me feel supported and fabulous at the same time.
