On my last day in Guatemala, I find myself reflecting on how wonderful this trip has been. I am in awe of all that this past month has held. A month full of adventure, exploration, and—most importantly—transformation and centering, a return to myself ✨🌀

I’ve felt so welcomed by her people.
I’ve felt held by her volcanoes, standing still and strong, quietly watching and witnessing from a distance, witnessing to all that unfolds.
I’ve felt deeply embraced by her beautiful, magical Lake Atitlán. I’ve connected with it in a special way, and it now holds a piece of my heart💙

I still don’t quite have the words to describe how transformational these last nine days have been. I’ve had the honour and privilege of apprenticing with a very special elder, a wisdom keeper, alongside her daughters—Mayan midwives who follow the Mayan cosmovision.
Something sacred has been shared, something I'm still learning how to carry.

🤍🤍🤍I return home with deep gratitude—humbled, open-hearted, centered, and rooted🤍🤍🤍

I know the rhythm of London will feel loud at first, perhaps jarring, so I will give myself the space to land slowly, to integrate, to listen. And when the time feels right, I will begin again—holding space for those who feel called to work with herbal medicine🌿

If that’s you, I’d love to hear from you😌

🌱Wild oats is one of my absolute favourite! It is a very gentle herb making it ideal for everyday use. I prescribe it for people experiencing high stress to help them wind down in the evenings and help them sleep better. Oats are highly nourishing and nutritious full of minerals like calcium, magnesium, silica, iron and vitamins. Oats are vital to a healthy nervous system. Wild oats are relaxing and strengthening at the same time.
Lavender, another one of my favourites always present in my herbal cupboard. Lavender calms the mind and lifts the spirits. It is a great ally for stress and sleeping difficulties. Lavender helps you to focus and concentrate.

Passion flower, such a stunning flower! It is a magnificent relaxant and sedative as well as an antispasmodic making it particularly useful for muscle twitching and cramps. I love having passion flower before and during my bleed.
🍃Lemon balm has the most delightful aroma in my opinion. Lemon balm was brought by the Romans who valued it to clear the mind, improve memory and lift the spirits. It reduces tension and has restorative properties. Lemon balm is useful for protecting the nervous system against free radical damage and preventing age related mental decline due to its antioxidant rosmarinic acid.
🌹Oh, Rose, wonderful Rose. The queen herb for the heart. I might be biased because I am going through a Rose phase, and I have connected deeply with this herb. Rose has long been valued for strengthening the heart and refreshing the spirit. Rose is restoring and calming and can be used in cases of irritability, anger and mental fatigue.
Which one of these do you have in your cupboard or maybe your garden? If you do, I invite you to smell it, connect with it and maybe make a cup of tea with it.

Herbie client love!

I was happy to support this client to feel healthy again. Usually, different complaints will manifest in the body in a wide variety of ways and in different body systems. The amazing thing about a holistic assessment is that the root cause of all those signs is identified allowing us to support and strengthen the body accordingly restoring health💚✨

✨Your body is constantly talking to you, listen to it✨

Sample creams all ready to go into goody bags for the Awakened Women Rising Retreat this coming weekend with ☺️
A hydrating, nourishing and soothing body cream with calendula infused oil made by myself, chamomile infusion and lavender essential oils. The only other ingredient is beeswax. Beautiful simplicity 🏵️
Hand blended by myself.
I will be making another batch of the big pots in the next few days so get your order in if you'd like one.
Té Chilax also coming soon- decided to use the Spanish word té (tea) because let's be honest, in Spain we are pretty good at chilaxing 😎

🌼🧡My Calendula & Chamomile body cream
is here! 🧡🌼
🌾It is a body cream inspired by beautiful simplicity and the 3 herbs in it are very common flowers yet have wonderful properties. It contains Calendula infused oil that has been infused by myself a bain marie over 5 to 7 hours, Chamomile water infusion and lavender essential oils. It also contains beeswax as an emulsifier. The Calendula has been infused in olive oil making it very hydrating and nourishing particularly for dry skin.
🌿Both Calendula and Chamomile have an affinity to the skin. They are anti-inflammatory, soothing and stimulate tissue repair. Lavender adds antiseptic properties working well for inflammatory and infective skin problems. It also adds that calming touch as lavender is a relaxant herb. It is antioxidant and a lovely rejuvenative herb too, perfect for that beauty sleep! I have been using this cream for the last few years and really enjoy applying it at night after a hot shower or bath 😊
💛A hydrating, soothing and noursihing treat for your skin and your self love rituals, made with love always 😊
Price: £35 + £3 UK postage 250 ml jar
For orders, please DM me with your address.
love Rocio🦋

✨💚PACHAMAMA BOTANICALS IS HERE! ✨💚
🌻A very warm welcome to Pachamama Botanicals - A space of herbal medicine creation. Herbal medicine that can be incorporated in your day to day life whether is a hearty and nurturing cup of herbal tea or a gentle and indulging natural body cream. It is all in the little details and medicine does not have to be seen as something we take when we are ill but all those practices that keeps us aligned, balanced and full of vitality.
💫Pachamama translates to Mother Earth in the Aymara and Quechua indigenous languages spoken in Peru, where my roots come from. During my herbal medicine training I have been exposed to a wide variety of herbs and practices and it is very clear to me that mother earth provides us with the medicine we need - Nutritious food, refreshing air, strengthening and healing herbs, soothing water used as hydrotherapy and so much more!
🌼My first creation is a calendula and chamomile body cream with a touch of lavender. It is a cream created in my own kitchen or my mini Hogwarts herbal lab like I like to think of it. I will be launching it on Saturday 10th of July and will be taking the firsts orders which makes me SUPER excited!
🌿Pachamama Botanicals' mission is to share the powerful message of Western Traditional Herbal Medicine and how plants can help us experience optimum health - physically, mentally and spiritually.
🍁One to one herbal medicine consultations will be offered in Autumn and workshop creation is in progress as well as more herbal treats! so keep your eyes peeled :)
Lots of love,
Rocio 🦋
