When Your Creativity Comes Back, Pay Attention. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes Healing Looks Like Creating AgainI’ve been noticing something lately. I’m creating again, but not in the way I used to.The ideas are coming without me having to chase them down. I’m wanting to make shit just because I want to make it. I’m following those random little sparks of curiosity instead of immediately trying to figure out what they’re supposed to become.And because I’ve been creating for more than 10 years, I know the difference between creating because I’m trying to produce s

Read excerpt
There’s something about Earth energy that keeps pulling me back to simplicity.This Mother Earth Bundle came together with three adjustable copper rings featuring Earth energy, simple copper, and Amethyst.
