to the comforts of the spongey green softness of the Devon landscape from the windy wilds of North Western 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Feeling welcomed back by the hearty red medicine of the hedgerow & a heavy blanket of reliable Devon rain. Our trip was everything I needed & more ... here’s an emoticon summary of my month-long pregnant wild van experience that I really enjoy ... hehe ...

I’m very glad to be re-entering insta-space with a freshness, healthier social media boundaries & a clearer intention for my growing work here with Pellar & Pollen. I’m excited to connect with you all again 💚 ~ in what feels like a rich time for me slowing into winter & relaxing into my 3rd trimester. Thank you for being here with me x

PS - the 2nd photo is me at one of my fav wild camping spots we found ~ at Berneray, North Uist where I fell in love with the playful sounds of Turnstones feeding in washed up seaweed & was greeted by curious seals each swelling tide 🚐🌊💙

I’m taking some time away from social media to simply be as we ad’van’ture our way through the Hebrides as a growing little family ~ go well all & see you later in the autumn 🍂

The beautiful colours of 13 medicines that bridge the seasons & offer our bodies the strength & resilience we need as we move from summer into autumn.
::
Right now is such a rich time out on the land when the last of the summer medicines are still available alongside the vitality of autumn fruits. This weekend at herb school we were blending their medicines to make strengthening winter tonics 🌿

As the rainforest & the arctic burn, Squirrels drop beech nuts on my head & a Great Spotted Woodpecker feeds rhythmically above. Arriving at the herbal apiary, Marshmallow flowers whisper words of soft power to my anger & grief. Feel it ~ feel it all & let it flow through into right action. Act from a place of hope rather than unaligned reaction or blame. I alone cannot hold this & I alone cannot stop this.
AND ...
I can choose to value & love this earth more. I can commit anew to valuing her deeply, tending to her with love & protecting her fiercely. I can choose yes to all that moves towards the regeneration of a culture that respects & values this earth. I vow to choose no to anything other than this. Today with House Martins dancing overhead, I commit to choosing this path anew x

Admiring the delicate beauty of the last flowers of the little alchemist ~ Lady’s Mantle (Alchemilla)
::
She is such a valuable astringent herb lending herself particularly to female reproductive health. I also encourage Men to work with her to heal or release emotional challenges inherited from their maternal line.
::
I’m anticipating my own need to work with her through vaginal steams before her next flowering season so I’ve been drying & storing a good sash of her for safe keeping 🌿
