It's been pretty interesting this past year of my life things I hadn't planned and just ended up amazing like finding a property to live on, I just kept following the feels and here I am..
40 I mean I feel like I'm not even a responsible adult haha I feel like I'm 20 but my knees feel 80 haha note to self strength training needed to cope with abuse on the bike haha 😅
I did have a great birthday moto yesterday. And I've basically just had multiple different birthday celebrations to claim the whole month because why not haha.
I have no wise words here but here's to the next chapter...
You know what I love about my job..
I literally don't get bored, I have such a variety of things I do in 1 day, my brain loves it I go from spinal energetics to eyebrows, to facials to lash lifts.
I've accepted that I like to do different things and get bored repeating the same thing, call it neurodivergence if you like, I've just created a job around it that I can switch multiple different things in a day and even when it is the same thing eg, spinal energetics or eyebrows it's still different because every person is different.
I mean sometimes I get to the end of the day and just sit in my car in silence because I can even deal with any more input into my system but I still love it.
So if you need your brows and lashes done I got you, need your soul nurtured I got you, need to lie in silence and Inhale oils I got you, need to talk non stop while I do your brows about how s**t your ex is or how hard parenting is I got you haha 😄
You are beautiful ❤️
I really think we need more colour, more art, more trinkets that mean things.
My soul wanted a wave on the wall, I said ok.

Having a little scroll through my insta, watching the evolution of my work or should is say my posts.
Originally my Page was having on the beauty side as I came back to work after having my daughter. I just really did brows as a way back into the scene.
Now I don't really advertise the beauty side of my work because I evolved back to "healing" work building my capacity to hold space again after becoming a mum was a journey in itself.
So if you didn't know I've been in the beauty industry since 2009 it's not my 1st rodeo haha. And working in the energetic healing space since 2015. It's interesting to see how social media has evolved, I mean we never used to document our work or have to maintain websites and social media. I also appreciate that it's free advertising but part me it like take me back to the days we didn't use it.

Thoughts and pondering.
I wrote this a while back found it while looking through my canva. It's still relevant.
Also another one that gets me..
Charge for your worth, but also our worth isn't based on financial gain....let's talk about that one next. Like I get it but also can we stop saying s**t that doesn't make sense that sounds cool.
I remember starting out in energy work with reiki there was always a thing that people had to exchange something for your energy, but here's the thing you need experience when you start anything. I understand the concept but nearly every single industry has some element of training or learning that you aren't being paid for, nurses have to do 800 hours of placement without being paid. Are they sacrificing their energy without any exchange.
Let just get over ourselves a bit and understand when we need experience and learning, I never look at not getting paid as me working for free if I'm willing wanting to experience or learn something new. I look at it like someone is trusting me with their energy or body enough to allow me to build experience. When I came back from learning spinal energetics I wanted all the experince I could get and I'm lucky I had willing people to allow me to practice something I could hardly explain and now nearly 2 years on from my training I'm still learning and building experince with every client I see, I don't think I'll ever stop learning in the way I practice energetic work, even with regular clients sessions vary dramatically everytime. I love it and so greatful to be doing this work. 🙌
Anyway there's some thoughts for the day.

Plant magic.
Eucalyptus one of the plant allies in the native flora immersion treatment.
"What can you release and let go of to bring in fresh energy" ?
P.s you'll be seeing more hand drawn and written content from now on because I'd rather use my hands to physically draw or write something that type on a computer or phone.

Anchored aesthetics officially has its own website

I decided I wanted my skincare range to be it's own entity, over the last 2 years I've used this range in the salon and personally and I love it, it ticks all the boxes for me low tox, no animal animal products, natural ingredient but works.
I wanted the range to be simple and easy to use so I've refined it down to my fave products over the last 2 years
We have the basics cleanser, moisturiser, exfoliant and a few add ons toner, serums, clay mask then some luxe products in perfume rollers and body oils.
I know that I will evolve the range and I'm thinking this will more lean towards more natural perfumes.
The intention with anchored aesthetics is to use skincare as a daily anchor to your body a point of connection to yourself. My labels are textured labels to create a tactile experience, hence the name anchored aesthetics, it came from my experience with creating body anchors which are essentially movements or touch points on the body linked with a positive or relaxed state that your body can use as a reference point of feeling safe, held or nurtured... so why not create a ritual with skincare that's a positive connection to your body.
I'd love to know your thoughts about skincare, as in what do you currently use, what you love or hate about skincare ranges. What you want to know about skincare.
So go check out .aesthetics to keep up to date with the range.
If your local you can still buy online and select local pick up to grab it from the salon.
Free postage on orders over $150.
$12 flat rate Australia wide.
I'll be building the social media for anchored aesthetics over the next few months I'd love any engagement over on .aesthetics so I can start building some traffic, you know how these things work let's get it into the algorithms.
