MEDICINE: Perfume
This month we work with the beautiful, ethereal, unique fragrance of Blue Lotus.
(Please be sure to sit in the guided meditation with the perfume from our ceremony before beginning to work with it and weave it into your days.)
INVITATIONS:
- Sit in short meditation with the perfume throughout the month, see what is revealed.
Keep a journal of your meditations.
- Anoint yourself each day or when you feel called to
Tune in to where you anoint with the lotus perfume. offering your presence, asking lotus + your body were wishes to be anointed. Take a moment to breathe in the scent, and let it sink in.
Take notice to when you feel called to anoint yourself: before your meditation practice, before a special occasion, before sleeping, in the mornings to prepare yourself for the day, etc.
- Use it however you’d like, whenever you’d like!
HOME EXPLORATIONS + INVITATIONS
This month, we keep in minimal. As our final month together, I invite you to join our community in the live classes as much as possible.
This month is about presence, gathering the gems of the journey, reflection, and integration <3
LOTUS EMBODIMENT PRACTICE: Combining all of the practices over the journey into one session. For integration + honoring + embodying the energy of your journey.

LOTUS PLANT PROFILE: A space to collect + ground in all that you’ve learned about Lotus medicine in one place. We will fill this out together in our class on August 20th, but feel free to go ahead and start it on your own anytime. Print in or write + create your own with these subjects as a guide.
