Vibrational Nutrition Class: Balancing Your Root Chakra - In Person
The consciousness of a living being is set by the frequency of the matter that makes up the body. Our bodies allow us to engage in the play of nature, as no incarnation can completely worldly or completely spiritual.
No matter what level of light or spirituality you attain, you cannot transcend the human experience if you are embodied. Likewise, no matter how terrestrial you think you are, you are always filled with divinity. So the goal is to experience the balance of energy and matter working together to create a healthy whole, which allows curiosity, play, and exploration here on Earth.
An incredibly easy way to access these complementary energies is by working with the chakra system. Chakras are spinning wheels of energy, psychic centers that exist not on the physical plane, but rather in the spiritual dimension. The chakras set the frequencies that give rise to every aspect of the human experience.
The foods we eat have consciousness and provide an energetic blue-print that stabilizes and entrains matter and energy for us when consumed.
Come explore what foods balance your Root Chakra

Calling All Kitchen Witches! In Person Class - Feb 5th - Orem, UT 🍅
Are you hungry to understand how to cook up some magic?! If so, this workshop series is for you 🍅
In this first class we will explore individual foods that open the intuitive body, psychic sight, and a recipe to open up this ecstatic state
🍅 As an example, here is a recipe for Decision-Making
Roasted Carrots with Carrot Greens Chimichurri
1 bunch carrots with greens intact
2 cloves garlic chopped
3 green onions, white and green parts, chopped
Good quality extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup white vinegar
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons bruised dried oregano
2 or 3 pinches crushed red pepper flakes
Prepare the chimichurri sauce first, allowing the flavors to meld as the carrots roast
Chimichurri Sauce
Remove any fibrous bits from the carrot greens; wash and squeeze out the excess moister. Roughly chop the greens, combine them in a food processer with the garlic and onions, and process until very fine. Place carrot greens mixture in a bowl; add 1/2 cup olive oil, white vinegar, 1 to 2 teaspoons salt (to taste), 1/2 teaspoon pepper, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.
Basic Roasted Carrots
Leave the peel on the carrots and give them a sound scrubbing. I like to leave the slender filament tip, as it crisps up wonderfully. Have a glass roasting pan at the ready. Using your hands, throughly rub olive oil all over the carrots, place in pan, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast uncovered for 20 to 30 minutes at 425 F until tender.
To serve, drizzle chimichurri sauce on top of carrots, with small dish of the sauce on the side.
Narrative: Offers support if you tend to overanalyze, overworry, and get caught up in 'what ifs' to the point of personal detriment. Helps you be in the here and now and feel safe while doing so. Assists you in finding your center, standing firm, and acting from a place of strength.
You might serve this dish when you feel paralyzed and can't make a decision. This energy allows you to feel into your options, take a deep breath, and make choices based on what's truly best for you, without fear.
Energetic Signature of Carrot and Carrot Greens
Carrot: Offers support if you tend to overanalyze, worry excessively, and get caught up in 'what ifs' to the point that it becomes a personal detriment. It's important to be judicious when you weigh what's in front of you; carrots offers the gift of being able to see what's an imaginary fear and what's a healthy concern.
Carrot Greens: Offers the gift of breaking down crystallized patterns. Are you in a rut? Do you have habits or attitudes that no longer serve you? Carrot greens can dissolve those walls to allow new life in, and since this can be unnerving, the greens also offer the inner support needed to make your transformation not so startling.

Eating Magic ✨ In Person Class - January 5th
Eating Magic
Imagine for a moment you have the swirling primordial energies of the universe at your finger tips and the ability to use this energy to--skillfully craft energy into desired states. Imagine you have the ability to administer to and support others at their deepest levels. In two words: you do! By accessing the frequency of food
The natural world with its vast and wondrous array of forms and energies offers a treasure trove of vibrational tools—in the form of food—that we can use as antidotes for negative energy patterns and to support the cultivation of positive qualities. The vibration of each plant can be understood as an energy pattern with a specific and unique signature. When these energetic signatures resonate with our natural vibrational patterns we can use them to fine-tune our energetic bodies to create specific states.
The energetic signature of each food offers the architecture of a stable foundation onto which we can consciously craft our inner world and thereby transform our outer reality. Because we are vibrational beings in a constant state of flux, a significant key to our well-being and growth is the reinforcement of our desired energetic patterns.
In this first class
You will explore the outermost layer of the of the energetic body and foundational concepts on why eating is in fact a magical act!
You will have a chance to eat select foods that open your intuitive perception and help you think outside of the box

Eating With Intention 🍓 A Vibrational Nutrition Workshop - In Person
Food speaks to us, all we need to do is listen, be still, and drink in the unique grandeur of each fruit and vegetable. As each has its innate markings, color, vibration, and taste. The ripe peach shimmers on the tree in the vibrant hues of the second chakra and is evocative of feminine gifts—cleft and succulent—vibrates to the energy of the muses, the goddesses of the arts, and helps incite the gift of art in all expressions. The precious gift of the peach is to open you to the memory of the muse in your own heart and the joyous expression that flows from this wellspring.
When you eat in a mindful manner, you engage with nature and see the environment as an extension of yourself and the plants as aspects of you. And you in them. We are intimately and forever intertwined, we are made from the same raw materials: the same recycled earth, life force, mind and spirit. The inner intelligence of our bodies is the ultimate and supreme genius of nature and mirrors the wisdom of the universe.
I believe Nature to be the kindest of teachers who is always refining and bringing about the best of what we are made of
In this class we explore the philosophy behind eating with intention and some whole foods that deepen intuition and open the gates of perception.
As we ingest and take each unique food into our body, their memories / vibrations, act as a template that shape and form our subtle bodies into specific frequencies, that in turn create specific behaviors. You will be able to experiencing first hand the shifts that occur in the body, mind, and spirit.

One Foot in Front of the Other: Not Necessarily a Holiday Theme
I was going to write about Frankincense but I cannot get this out of my mind. I have had such insightful conversations this week. Mostly concerning rites of initiation.
The easiest way for me to express myself is via archetypes and I believe the ones for the job are The Moirae or Fates.
They are beings of destiny, three wizened crones who spin and weave your future and, when the time is correct, cut the thread of your life. Destiny is often confusing; as it is being constructed, it is hard to see the horizon. Take heart, for this is a time of initiation. Initiation is one of those concepts that seems exciting on paper but often in reality gives you the sensation of awakening to your next steps as a trial by fire. Calling on the Moirae for clarity in your next steps will help lead you on your way. Remember that a large part of destiny is being able to choose actions in a nonreactive way. It important to stay grounded - patchouli - keep a clear head and nimble mind - black pepper - and go with the flow and make decisions moment to moment to best craft your reality - red spikenard, frankincense (I guess I did work him in!) massoia bark. If you must experience a loss before a gain - white rose. Working with the Fates will allow you to stay centered amid challenging situations and bring trust for the future and the unfolding of right action.

Saffron Oil ~ Crocus sativus (Mascaraed)
$18 . buy here
More than any other plant saffron is equated with its color. Saffron smells the way it looks. Just gazing upon the color of saffron you feel the sun rising and setting—it is liminal. Reaching into the realm of gold, the incorruptible and everlasting, and into the realm of blood, vigorous, active and mutable. The effusiveness of saffron brings arousal in the physical body and subtle body, rousing the second chakra; the tantric unity of opposites. The sacral fragrance and flowering of life made incarnate.
Roman brides wore the flammeum or saffron colored veil of Aurora, the goddess of dawn. Homer describes Eos’ garment as ‘krokopeplos’, the yellow-red garment of the goddess of dawn with the colors of her personification (Iliad 8.1). In Mesopotamia saffron was regarded as a color of divinity. Buddhist monks wrap themselves in saffron colored robes as a reminder of the light of truth that leads to enlightenment.
In Minoan culture a religion flourished based around the crocus flower and her stigmas. In one fresco a goddess, perched upon a rock, has injured her foot and her blood runs into the crocus flower and makes the stigma red. In Greek myth there are two stories of Crocus one of love and one of heart break. In the first tale Crocus was the beloved of Hermes and one day whilst playing together a terrible tragedy struck. Crocus was hit upon the head and mortally wounded. The heart-broken Hermes transformed his love into a flower, three drops of blood, which had fallen from the head of Crocus; became the stigmata of the flower. In the second tale Crocus was in love with the nymph, Smilax, and she did not love him in return. The gods taking pity upon Crocus transforming him into the flower, to relieve his grief, and Smilax was transformed into the thorny vine.
Aristophanes described saffron as a ‘sensuous smell’ (Clouds 51). It is rumored that Cleopatra bathed in saffron-infused mare’s milk before taking a lover to her bed. Dioscorides’ recommends mixing saffron with myrrh for a multitude of disorders (De Material Medica 1.54). Used in Assyria for treating stomachaches and urinary disorders. Egyptians favored it for infections, inflammation, diarrhea and even as a contraceptive! Pliny felt saffron increased the efficacy of medicines “all these perfumes are rendered still more pungent by the addition of costus and amomum… and saffron makes them better adapted for medicinal purposes’ (Naturalis Historia 13.2.62). Saffron is still used today in a multitude of ways to support both the physical and spiritual bodies.
