Gift Guide for Holiday 2021

January 2, 2022 · Leave a Comment

The final day of our Holiday 2021 shop small gift guide features Portland based Hear Here cards. The perfect gift for anyone looking to improve their self-care practices.
“Hear Here is a 24-card illustrated oracle card deck and guidebook. Each illustration has been created in concert with a series of accessible self-care practices described in the accompanying guidebook. The intention is that these practices can be done anywhere, at any time.”


You can purchase the cards from their website, or shop online or in person at one of their many retailers.  If you’re interested in more ways to further your journey of self and soul, definitely check out Forest Stone and Sea. “Forest, Stone and Sea was born of a love for nature and the elements of spirit- a need for deep self care mixed with a variety of tools and self care items to create sacred space, ritual, meditation, and relaxation…”

Happy New Year! Looking forward to #betterdays in Happy New Year! Looking forward to #betterdays in 2022 and reminiscing about good memories of past celebrations. *lessons learned*, you can’t say no to #homemade #vodka when you’re in #poland. Even though I look horrified in this photo, I was having the time of my life…riding up a mountain in a horse drawn carriage. Booze in one hand and a flaming torch in the other 🔥. Of course sitting next to my partners in #adventure @susanna_kirschnick  and @dagmara.mituniewicz made the experience one that I will never forget ❤️
