Welcome to the full moon in gemini meditation. For this magnetic full moon energy in the chatty sign of gemini we will be traveling to a stone farm house near the historic town of Almonte, Ontario, to host a fall soiree in the glass shed on the property.

Welcome to the new moon in scorpio meditation. Scorpio is resilient and transformative, it goes into the depths to come out anew and awaken a new path to unfold. This is a beautiful time to connect to your inner direction and unlock a new path forward to align with a soul calling that will end the year on a clear and prosperous path. We will be setting intentions in a gorgeous inspiring beach bungalow on a private island in the Bahamas, using travel and connection to water to begin new paths.

• Carley’s recent apprenticeship at Herb Pharm, her eat-pray-love year, connecting to herself and knowing she needed to immerse herself into the herbalist world. After being a city herbalist for so long she knew she needed to go out into the vast landscape and fully dive into the herb world. Divinely timed, living in community with 8 other women, working with the land and having a strong connection and communication with the plant world.
• Plant sits: taking a tincture of a plant you don't know and working with it to uncover what it is and how it works with your energetic body.
• Sitting with hawthorn, potent for the heart, opening of the heart.
• The mind-body connection when it comes to holistic nutrition. Developing a spiritual practice over time and seeing how much that impacted her health. Feeling like she needed to be perfect when it came to food, looking at all problems as a one-juice-away from achieving the ultimate health, being all about the physical body. Finally realizing how much our mind is connected to our health, how our gut is connected to the brain.
• Hormone health and women being disconnected to their cycles and living in a masculine world - this connection to stress and dysregulation.
• We have 4 cycles in our menstrual cycle, seen as the 4 seasons - mimicking nature and the moon. We have this internal need to be connected to plants, we have an internal herbalist inside of us.
• 4 cycles: menstruation is our inner winter, the follicular phase is the springtime, our ovulatory is our inner summer, the luteal phase is our inner autumn. Discussing Carley’s favorite herbs for each of our menstrual seasons to support us during each time - such as dandelion root, which represents the sun, the moon and the stars.
• We discuss cramping in periods and if it's normal for us to experience. Looking at it like our bodies are trying to tell us something. Could be a sign of inflammation and trying to remove seed oils from the diet to see if there is a difference.

• We discussed Carley’s thoughts on oat milk and my experience of feeling anxiety when drinking oat with my coffee.
