A few weeks ago, I ran out of the organic honey that usually goes in my tea, so I switched to sugar until I could get to the store. Within two hours of making the switch, I started to feel a pain in my shoulder. I ignored it and carried on working. Within 8 hours, […]
Happy New Year! Seems like some powerful forces are being unleashed in the world this year, forces driven by Shakti, the divine feminine.
