Red Belted Conk & Turkey Tail – Local, Wild Harvested Dual Extract Tinctures

Help me welcome Red Belted Conk and Turkey Tail to the apothecary!
Both were wild foraged this fall, deep within the lowland forests of Bellingham.
This outing was notably special, as I was gifted the company of a Barred Owl watching over me and a pair of Pileated Woodpeckers who were very hard at work.
Barred Owls are often seen as a symbol of wisdom and intuition, while Pileated Woodpeckers represent persistence and hard work in overcoming obstacles. Pileated’s are also great at self-expression and being heard.
I like to imagine these visits add a little extra magic to the remedies. ✨🤗
Now let’s talk a little more about the fungi themselves...

Red-Belted Conk is a steadfast, hearty shelf fungus and strong supporter of the immune system. Regular use is believed to help the body respond more effectively to stressors. Thus, it may offer relief for autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
It reduces inflammation, especially within gastrointestinal areas and has antibacterial and antifungal properties.
It’s also a great option for those looking to improve energy and stamina naturally.

See comments for Turkey Tail, and to discover the spiritual benefits of both! ✨

Fresh Homegrown Lion’s Mane - Dual Extract Tincture ❤️ (Hericium erinaceus)

I’d like to extend a warm welcome to the first of my homegrown mushroom tinctures! I’ve become completely infatuated with these funny, long-toothed fungi as I tend them several times a day, working to maintain the best growing conditions of temperature, light, air flow, and humidity. Admittedly, I’m feeling somewhat of a scientist, and it’s been quite fun!

It continues to be a learning experience as I get to know them more intimately, feeling deeper affections as I further my understanding of their sensitive preferences that help them flourish, as well as the subtle nuances that make them uniquely who they are. In this respect, I’m starting to feel we have a lot in common. ❤

These quick-witted “fun-guys” are best known for their cognitive-enhancing abilities by supporting memory, focus, and overall clarity and brain function. They also promote nerve regeneration and offer neuroprotection, as well as support immunity - even mood regulation!

On a spiritual level, Lion’s mane may act as a gentle guide into deeper states of meditation, allowing you to explore higher states of consciousness, often leading to profound spiritual insights into a better understanding of oneself and the world around us.

For this batch, I used fresh fruiting body to preserve their life-force energy.

They were infused into 95% grain alcohol for approx. 6 weeks before being simmered in water for over 2 hours. Both the alcohol and water extractions were then combined to bring you a potent, and shelf-stable dual extract!

As always, this batch underwent Reiki Ritual prior to bottling for the utmost intention and care.

Recommended Use: Take one to two droppers daily, in a small glass of water or your favorite beverage. You can also take it straight if preferred.

For spiritual benefits, take 1-3 drops as needed.

Asking $12/bottle.

Reishi Dual Extract Tincture 🍄‍🟫
*Small Batch*

This was among the first of my dual extracts, and one I prioritized having in my apothecary. It’s easily one of our most beloved medicinal mushrooms!

Reishi is known as “The Mushroom of Immortality,” and for good reason. It kind of does it all, and has been used for centuries for overall health, longevity, and vitality.

Reishi is valued for its immune-boosting properties, as well as improving overall wellbeing. As an adaptogen and with consistent use, it helps your body adapt to stressors and maintain balance. This action also works to promote better sleep.

Reishi is rich in antioxidants and often used for cardiovascular support.

On a spiritual level, Reishi tincture in drop doses may support a sense of connectedness, which can help elevate spiritual practices.

Moreover, in TCM, Reishi is renowned for nurturing “Shen” (our vital consciousness, the awareness that motivates our being to become our most authentic selves).

I like to take just a few drops midafternoon for a gentle vitality boost which helps to push me through the rest of my day.

About the Batch:
I only use fruiting body in my mushroom tinctures. The mushrooms in this batch were cultivated and purchased locally from a trusted source. They were then infused into 95% grain alcohol for approx. 6 weeks before being simmered in water for just over 2 hours.
Both the alcohol and water extractions were then combined to bring you a potent, and shelf-stable remedy!

✨Lastly and as always, this batch underwent Reiki Ritual prior to bottling for the utmost intention and care. ✨

Recommended Use: 1-2 droppers daily, in a small glass of water or favorite beverage. You can also take it straight if preferred. For spiritual benefits, take 1-3 drops as needed.

Asking $12/bottle. To support positive change, trades are also considered.

DM for purchase ❣️

Wild Burdock Fresh Root Tincture
(Organic Cane Alcohol)

I am particularly in love with this tincture, and it holds a certain sentiment. This was my first wild burdock harvest in the hills of Whatcom County. During the harvest, offerings were left with the land, which had magically disappeared upon leaving the forest.

I used fresh root infused into organic cane alcohol for six weeks for the cleanest, most potent extraction. And as always, they underwent Reiki Ritual prior to bottling for the utmost intention and care.

Burdock Root is best known for encouraging the liver to filter out waste, aiding in detoxification.

It also has an affinity for the skin, keeping your skin clear and vibrant as well as easing skin conditions like rashes, eczema, psoriasis.

There is a cloudiness to this tincture due to the presence of inulin, which serves as a prebiotic to support gut health.

Burdock root is an overall powerhouse for general health and wellness.

For emotional/spiritual support, burdock root is believed to promote emotional detoxification, and enhance feelings of earth connection through grounding and stability.

Recommended Use: Take one to two dropperfuls daily, in a small glass of water or your favorite beverage. You can also take it straight if preferred. Drop doses (1-2 drops) for emotional or spiritual support.

Asking $12/bottle. In an effort to support positive change, trades or discounted rates are also considered.

Local pickup. DM for purchase! ❣️

It’s a good reminder that attunements, formal training, and other practices greatly enhance the practitioner’s ability to channel and direct the energy. That said, I want to EMPOWER YOU to take control at home and between sessions.

A couple of considerations before you begin: ✨

🌀Everything in the universe is made of vibrational energy. When self healing with Reiki, you tap into Universal Energy and act as a conduit to transfer and absorb this energy. Your body then adopts this new balanced frequency, thus supporting natural healing processes at the root cause (whether on a mental, emotional, spiritual, or physical level).

🌀It can be helpful to have a basic understanding of the body’s seven main energy centers called “chakras.” This is completely optional, and you can find multiple resources with a quick internet search.

Let’s get channeling! ✨

1. Prepare your energy before a session. Center yourself, clear your mind, and set the intention to operate from a place of self-love and lack of judgement. (This is a great time to take a drop of Rose Glycerite).

2. Gently place your hands on your body where you feel discomfort or the need for support and focus on sending Universal Energy to that area. YOUR INTENTIONS ARE POWERFUL, and it is this intention that makes the energy flow.
No physical issues? It’s a lovely practice to simply place your hands over your heart. ❤️
Alternatively, you might also choose to spend a few minutes on each of the seven main chakras for a more complete, balanced approach.
Don’t worry! Regardless of where you place your hands, Reiki has its own intelligence and will naturally flow where it is needed most.

3. When you’ve covered all your areas for your desired time (I recommend 20 minutes total or more daily), it’s a good practice to consciously stop channeling and give thanks to the Energy.

🌱I have been working to reformat my offerings with the exciting addition of herbal allies!
It is also my top priority to remain financially accessible.

🌱You can now choose between Traditional Usui Reiki or Herbal Reiki (both 60 minute hands-on sessions); however, Herbal Reiki includes additional time to review your herbal intake (emailed to you prior to your appointment).
This will be used to further personalize your experience!

🌱Both services are followed-up with a session summary unique to you.
Though, your summary for Herbal Reiki will also offer herbal suggestions for continued homecare.
(Please note: My area of focus is mental, emotional, and spiritual balancing and nervous system nourishment. Though, I am happy to supplement physical concerns within my scope and refer you out as needed).

🌱Just a reminder that while herbs pair beautifully with Reiki, they are not at all essential to the efficacy of Reiki!
Both options will leave you with a sense of deep relaxation, overall wellbeing, and enhancement of your body’s self-healing processes.

I can’t wait to see you in session!

Warmly,
Marie

January 30, 2025 Update:
Now ReOpEN with Herbal Allies! 🌱✨

This page is undergoing changes, a more regular online presence is underway!
———-——————————————————————————-
Hi there! My interest in holistic healing spans almost 2 decades.
I began my career as an esthetician, before entering the healing profession in 2004 as a licensed practical nurse.
I worked in urgent care, family practice, and eventually, functional medicine.
Nursing challenged me and the experiences allowed me to truly embody the meaning of empathy - becoming more spiritually connected.
In 2018, I made the decision to enroll with Functional Medicine Coaching Academy.
Functional medicine is integrative by nature and embraces the energetic components of wellness.
Through reviewing these systems, I knew I had found my niche.
I received my first Reiki attunement in 2018 and began my journey of self-healing.
I was so impressed that something so simplistic had such dramatic effects in promoting the body’s natural healing processes. My personal healing was profound, and changes in my life were seen on a quantum level.
Reiki helped me learn self-love and provided a sense of immense empowerment over my own wellbeing.
Prior to Reiki, I struggled with anxiety, depression, confidence in boundary setting, and an overwhelming fear of new social situations and public speaking.
I still experience a lesser version of these at times, but they no longer dominate my life or decisions.
I’ve learned that with consistent meditation, time in nature, and self-Reiki practice, I can maintain a calm mind and an open heart.
For this reason, I’ve grown very passionate and eager to share this modality of healing with others, thus obtaining my Master level attunement in January 2022.
My vision is that Reiki will become more commonplace and be wholeheartedly embraced as an effective and applied spiritual practice for healing, compassion, and well-being.

I am thrilled to introduce the healing power of plants into your Reiki session!
But what does that look like?

Think of it as “herbal-infused energy;” and it will look different for everyone. Allow me to explain:

Often I will suggest we both start with an oral drop dose of rose glycerite (which is a non-alcohol based “sweet tincture”).
Rose is gentle by nature and will encourage us to drop into our heart space (the source of deep healing).
By engaging in this ritual together and with intention, we become better connected.

I may also utilize an herbal hydrosol or aromatic herb satchel (within your pillowcase) to encourage deep relaxation and invite subconscious insights.

The remainder of the session will be personalized from your intake and brief discussion upon arrival.

Herbal remedies will show up in the form of topical herbal oils, tinctures (taken orally or applied topically), or simply inviting plant presence into the room through visualization or contact through physical touch.

My herbal remedies are self-made - occasionally utilizing one from another local trusted source.

To end, I will briefly discuss your session, as well as the plants we worked with.
I will also email you an in-depth session summary that will include herbal recommendations for home care support.

My focus is mental, emotional, and spiritual balancing and nervous system nourishment - though I am happy to address other areas of healing or refer you out as needed.

No specific healing requests? Simply relax and enjoy an hour of energetic and herbal bliss!

I am so excited to be of service!

Is your Root chakra in need of healing?

Do you say or think things like “I’m exhausted,” or “I’m all over the place.”

If you find yourself using these negative affirmations, here are 3 grounding affirmations to help you find balance. 🙏🏼

Affirmations are mental training tools used to help re-pattern the subconscious mind; working to create more positive and desirable thought patterns - which in turn lead to more positive and desirable outcomes to your health and outer world!
