What if ... your life is and was a Mystery School? Make Things Know Thyself. Dwell in that possibility.

 My social anxiety and panic attacks began when I was about four. I found that there are many tools to manage ones social anxiety disorder. To heal ones social phobia you really need to develop a large holistic tool box. Over my lifetime I have discovered some really effective tools to calm my nervous system and mind down. One such amazing one is essential oils. I use that highest of quality with the Doterrra line. My healing social anxiety disorder blend ~ that is truly marvelous and works amazing!! And bonus: everyone says you smell amazing. The beauty about essential oils is that they marry with your own chemistry. Doterra is the best quality out there. These bottles should last about 6 months. You will mix them with a carrier oil like fractured coconut.
With it you will become a wholesale customer of doterra. It is pretty cool with each you buy, you get points to buy other oils. Carrier oil fractured coconut. I put saffron in it. Saffron is amazing for skin and helps it glow. I layer these with a few drops of essential oil and the carrier oil. As a self body massage. You can buy it on amazon at HERE Enjoy this amazing tool! Another way to use the oils is to inhale through your nose. This process is called tenting. Here is how place the oils on your wrists and then tent them (put your palms together), place them over your nose and inhale deeply. Let me know if you have any questions. I happy to help and serve.

Do you sometimes feel like a ping pong ball, being hit around by external circumstances. We as individuals and societies are taught to be at the mercy of what is “out there” versus what is “within you.” We told what is material is more “real,” than one’s own subtle energy or spirit. To navigate through our extreme materialistic worldview can be extremely challenging. We often feel dis-empowered, separate, stressed, and anxious at the lack of control we have. Also, the dominant worldview is life is about suffering and punishment. Many humans walk around in a dark cloud of negative mind chatter and self bullying. Also, with our predominant current culture wars, there is a lot hate,racism, and external bullying out there for people that are you consider different from you. It is a pretty mean world out there.
To see the light can be a hard task. Many have lost our sense of reverence and the sacred. With the Harmonia Institute and within my own personal spiritual journey, I am seeking solutions for myself and the world to become sacred and whole again. Recently, I was reintroduced to the power of Lucid Dreaming and Tibetan Dream Yoga on Open Minds with Regina Meredith on Gaia TV. She had an incredible interview, Lucid Dream Teacher, Charley Morley. All his work really resonated with me ( I feel I was a Tibetan Monk in a past life) and I become totally inspired to navigate through Lucid Dreaming and Dream Yoga. For my own healing and expansion. In kind then to share with the world by creating a series of Harmonia Dream Art and Yoga workshops. For me, the main message of Lucid dreaming is your inner world is an epic and powerful healing force. This is a fertile ground of expansion, sanity, and well-being. As well when you go within via dreaming in day or the night, you are empowered by internal choices and manifestation. Like we say at the Harmonia Institute, your inner world is your final frontier. Your inner world is a place of power. Your dreams are portals into your subconscious and when you lucid dream you learn how to awaken in that state. I am still doing research, but here is the beginning of the tenants of Dream Yoga
Harmonia Lucid Dream Meditation Practice If you suffer from social anxiety/phobia this is a great tool for you to feel more unity consciousness. Today on ocean meditation I did a lucid daydream yoga practice and it was profound and liberating. I began with the intention of lucid dreaming on my 10,000 steps of gratitude meditation. I grabbed my power stones rose quartz, malachite, and lapis lazuli. Anointed myself with the essential oils, Clarity Sage and Bergamot. As I ventured out, I recognized every human, every dog, every critter, every blade of grass, every tree, every thing was me. I silently pointed at each human that passed my path and said there I am. I pointed at the old man, there I am as a pointed at the toddler. My separation dissolved and for a moment in time I tasted the nectar of unity consciousness. And I embraced that I was an empowered co-creator connected with it all. To dive deeper, check out Charlie Morley TED Talk about Lucid Dreaming Below.
Charlie Morley is a Lucid Dreaming teacher and practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism specializing in the use of both Western scientific and Tibetan Buddhist dream practices with the aims of bringing mindful awareness into all stages of dream, sleep and waking life. He is the co-creator of a new holistic approach to conscious sleeping and lucid dreaming called "Mindfulness of Dream and Sleep". This new approach includes practices which aim to help us sleep better, dream more lucidly and wake up with more awareness, clarity and joy!

Here is a List of 15 of the most effective essential oils to promote lucid dreaming: From HowToLucid.com Lucid dreaming has long been a skill to be cultivated for spiritual seekers. You can use essential oils to boost your lucid dreams and make things more vivid, here’s how! There are numerous ways to use essential oils. One way is to use a diffuser to have the healing effects of the oils spread more readily around your home. Another possibility is putting a few drops in the palms of your hand and inhaling for at least thirty seconds. (Some also like to apply essential oil to the soles of their feet.) It is also possible to use them in a bath, add them to lotion or moisturizer, or apply them with a compress. It’s also recommended to keep a journal each night to record how each oil or combination of oils works for you. Recording how your body responds to different oils along with recording your dreams from each night will help in making lucid dreaming a more common occurrence. 1: Rose oil has long been associated with meditation and prayer and is widely regarded as the most important essential oil for aiding lucid dreams. Rose oil is known for bringing about a deeply relaxed state and is often mixed with other essential oils for maximum results. With its intoxicating scent, it’s no wonder that it is a favorite for lucid dreamers. 2: Jasmine: The sweet aroma of jasmine is also popular with lucid dreaming enthusiasts. This essential oil has a relaxing effect that induces sleep and helps bring about a calm mental state that is helpful for lucid dreaming. Overall, jasmine alleviates stress on the mind and body. Some say that it also stimulates romantic and sexual feelings and it is particularly helpful for women with sexuality issues to be worked through. 3:Sandalwood has been used for centuries in sacred rituals and is considered holy by many people of faith. This essential oil that is extracted from a sandalwood tree has many healing properties as it has an anti-spasmodic effect on the body. Sandalwood essential oil also aids in alleviating stress on the mind, body and soul. 4: Lavender essential oil is also touted for its medicinal properties. Not only does it help relieve stress, it is also believed to have profound effects on neurological disorders. With such a powerful effect on the brain, it isn’t surprising that this essential oil helps puts practitioners in a receptive state for lucid dreaming. 5: Chamomile: This is another excellent choice for using before bed to allow the body to relax enough into a state that is conducive to lucid dreaming. It has a subtle floral aroma and has been used for centuries for a variety of medicinal purposes. Soldiers were even known to use it for courage before going into battle. The restful properties of chamomile are a natural fit for lucid dreaming seekers. 6: MugwortMugwort is used for cardiac stress relief. It also calms the mind and overall body to prepare for lucid dreaming. Used in Eastern medicine for thousands of years, mugwort is commonly used right before bed for lucid dreams as well as for improved dream recall and as a creativity enhancement. 7: Cloves come from the unopened buds of the evergreen tree and they are also extracted for essential oils. With its spicy aroma, it is a favorite for many before going to bed. It contains eugenol, a powerful ingredient, that helps the process. 8:Anise essential oil is powerful and should be used in moderation. Sometimes known as sweet cumin, it has been carefully regulated in some countries. It has a scent similar to fennel and it has long been used to treat conditions like nervous palpitations or anxiety. Its relaxing properties made it another addition to this list. 9: Lemon Balm .Also known as Melissa essential oil, lemon balm oil makes the list as another recommended relaxant. Lemon balm is another oil that should be used sparingly. With its pleasant citrusy scent, it is often used to stimulate a more active dream state. Some say it is the most effective for bringing on prophetic dreams. 10: Sage Clary oil is used as an anti-anxiety and anti-depression aid . It promotes a general feel of wellbeing and it is another important oil for deep relaxation. It increases visualization ability and it helps with gaining deeper insight while dreaming. Clary sage oil has a pleasant nutty aroma adding to its appeal. 11: Bergamot essential oil is extracted from the lesser known type of citrus–bergamot. This is a great choice for lucid dream seekers because it is known to be a sedative that helps the body relax and let go from a stressful day for a good night of sleep. Bergamot essential oil promotes dopamine and serotonin release which is perfect for the lucid dreaming state of bringing conscious while dreaming. 12: Juniper berry essential oil has a pungent pine scent. Some even say that it reminds them of the aroma of pepper. It’s another oil known for its relaxing ingredients, but this oil is particularly recommended for people who are attempting to work through inner trauma through lucid dreaming. When inhaled, it has a healing effect on the brain which makes it a favorite among essential oil fans. 13: Frankincense: This essential oil is known for awakening consciousness. It’s recommended for prayer and meditation and it is said to be one of the most powerful oils for elevating one’s self to a higher plane. It has an “earthy” scent and many people are drawn to it for this quality. Frankincense also has a slight fruity aroma which makes it more gentle smelling. It’s a powerful agent for lucid dreaming and you won’t want to miss trying this one. 14: Palo Santo oil has an uplifting and spiritual healing quality. It is often paired with frankincense for the pleasant combination of scents. Many use this oil for grounding and protection. Known as one of the spiritual oils, it is a natural choice for lucid dreaming work. 15: Mandarin: This citrus essential oil is also known as tangerine essential oil. It blends well with other citrus scents for maximum effectiveness. Mandarin essential oil promotes overall wellbeing as well as possesses sedative qualities. A deep, relaxed state is essential for productive lucid dreaming work, and relaxants are the most important quality in choosing an essential oil. Mandarin oil provides another choice to use on its own or in combination with other oils. We hope these tips have been helpful for deciding which oils are most effective for aiding your spiritual work. This type of deep work is one of the most powerfully healing techniques leading to empowerment.

The is no question, that we live in a very toxic world. Just take a moment and open the news cycle. Ever time I do that, I feel like the Edvard Munch's "Scream" painting. I just read that over 40 million adults in the USA suffer from anxiety. As well eight out of ten people suffer from extreme stress in their lives. What is the solution? The solution is everyone must develop serious daily self care practices and rituals. That is why there is over 20 million yogis in the USA. Being a hyper sensitive (HSP), I to have suffered from life long anxiety and panic disorders. The only way I have been able to manage and heal it is through the practices of art, yoga, nature meditation, mystical studies, and essential oils. Way back in 1999, I frequented the Yoga Tree in San Francisco and the owner Tara become my art collector. At the moment, I began merging art and yoga as one practice. Previously, art was my ultimate self healing practice. Also in graduate school at JFKU in the Arts and Consciousness: Holistic Studies Program, I took it further and developed a holistic transformative art program to heal emotionally traumatized youth in foster in Oakland, CA. Then 2012, I co-founded Art 4 All People with Ceylan Huyla and that is were together created the full on YogART practice. We created workshops, teacher trainings, and certifications to expand YogART as an Arts and Healing practice. Then in 2016, I developed Harmonia. Which is an off shoot of YogART. With Harmonia I added essential oils and the Goddess Archetypes. Every year with my Arts and Healing organization, Artemis Sacred Journeys, Mary Rockwood Lane of Healing with the Arts, and I lead women's empowerment Retreats to Tinos, Greece. That is where I teach Harmonia and see the true power of this holistic arts and healing practice. Harmonia is multi sensory experience and it takes one deep into their interpersonal transformation and empowers individuals to heal themselves, de-stress, and live a more balanced and harmonious life. Below is my latest Harmonia Practice © workshop I just discovered the Goddess Archetype Aletheia , I feel she is a potent and raw energy of pure truth. She pulls back veils and enables you to reconnect with your truest self. The bottom line is as a woman, we have been labeled and oppressed since the Patriarchy has been in the dominant power. In today's world it is tough to realize, who you really are. It really takes a lot of self care, self inquiry, and self work to peel the onion and to find your authentic self. For me the Goddess Aletheia will mentor you to "Know They Self." Enjoy the DIY Harmonia practice. Remember you are a limitless, eternal, live in infinite potential and possibilities.

Invitation To Goddess Aletheia Harmonia Practice ©. She will be activated in your Throat Chakra. Reclaiming the Feminine Mystery of Creation Through The Goddesses Mandala Art Creation,Archaeology, Art as Your Oracle To begin your Harmonia Practice 1.Opening your sacred circle and creative visualization Light your candle and grab your essential oils. Place the essential oils on your wrist. Tent them, meaning place your the tips of your fingers together and bring your wrists up to your nose. Close your eyes and breathe and breathe out. Imagine your breath is traveling down your chakra system down through your feet into the core of the earth. The crystalline grid. Feel and hearing the heartbeat of the Gaia/Earth Mother. Then imagine a golden light is traveling down from the heavens, through your crown chakra and all the way down your root chakra. Lastly, imagine the crystalline grid from Gaia is pulling up all the way to your throat chakra and simultaneously the golden light pouring down from the heavens is entering your throat chakra. Feel and breath in this light. 2. Mindful Reading and Preparation Go to your yoga mat. Bring your mandala, reading, and art supplies next to your mat and then softly read about the Goddess. "Labels have been applied to the nature of Woman for thousands of years, beginning with sacred and divine, at times unclean and shunned, and accusations of wanton and tempting. These were the Truths that others applied to women and we accepted them and even lived entire lives under those labels: the Mother, the Career Woman, the Good Daughter, the Attendant Wife, the Whore, the Bitch, too many to name. Under those labels and the acceptance by women of those labels, there was always Aletheia – She burns brightly in our WomanRoots, our Women’s Blood and within our Women’s Mysteries. She held the Truth until we were ready to Remember and Become Unhidden. For some, the journey to their True Selves is too frightening or perceived to be too difficult and Aletheia is relegated to the obscured and forgotten.Remembrance of our WomanRoots – our True Selves, Actualizing Authenticity and Cultivating the State of Unhidden could be called The Great Work. The impetus of Aletheia is to take on the mantle of The Great Work – Personal Transformation in accordance with our Truth of Self. Actualization and emergence of our True Self occurs as we allow the soul to burgeon and unfold itself – the action of revealing. Revealing leads the Self to connect and tune to its proper place in the Universe. Attainment occurs when our True Self releases its Will into the Universe and takes action. Aletheia has started a chain reaction of potentiality for lives full of Bliss and Self Love and Authenticity. Our WomanRoots are planted deeply and firmly, infusing us with the Sacred everyday How can we invite Aletheia and her gorgeous unicorn into our lives?" From http://themotherhouseofthegoddess.com 3. Yoga Series Slowly tent your oils again and begin your yoga series in your imagination invite Aletheia into your being. Begin the series with 1. Easy Neck Release 2. Baby Cobra Pose 3. Supported Fish Pose (you will need a block are cushion) 4. Shoulder Stand and end with 5. Legs-Up-The-Wall Pose In mindful way rub one of the essential oils on the soles of your feet. 4. Creative Writing: Shedding the Labels, Old Stories, and Self Identity Write in your art journal. Reflect on the fear, the lies we tell ourselves (or allow others to tell us) and feelings of aloneness and being stuck are the barriers to Aletheia. Shed the barriers from each Chakra, write down three or things/stories/patterns that create a barrier between you and your core Truth.
Now invite the Goddess into your creative processes and create your mandala. As intuitively as possible. Try not to think, just let your hand move. 7. Witnessing and Your Art as an Oracle What information or message does your Mandala reveal to you? What messages does the Goddess Aletheia reveal? What is your truth? How does your Truth feel? How will you embody this into your daily life? Lastly create an Affirmation What is your Aletheia Mandala’s affirmation? Later in the evening light a candle to your mandala and gaze at it. Does it have anymore information? *Below is the Mandala Template Show me your Mandala. Share in the comment section below.    Do you Love Essential Oils?
