The gentle wisdom of lavender,
Soft strength and sacred stillness.
Welcome,
Dear friends.
Today we gather in a warm and welcoming circle,
Surrounded by enchanting spirit of lavender.
This lovely plant may not demand our attention,
But when it blooms,
It brings a gentle peace to our lives.
Lavender reminds us that healing doesn't need to be loud and dramatic,
Sometimes.
It's a soothing whisper that invites us back to our true selves,
And away from life chaos.
Let's take a moment to appreciate where lavender thrives.
She flourishes in bright sunlight,
Sending her roots deep into dry,
Rocky soil,
Where many other plants would struck on,
And instead of complaining,
She embraces the challenge.
She radiates beauty in adversity,
Asking only for light,
Warmth and a bit of space.
Her silvery green leaves shimmer in resilience,
And when she blooms,
It's with a humble yet captivating glow.
Lavender inspires us to show that beauty can flourish even in harsh environments.
She teaches us that our gentleness is not a vulnerability,
It's a strength,
A sacred strength that empowers us.
It lets us celebrate the quiet yet profound lessons she offers and embrace the positivity that comes with being true to ourselves.
Lavender does not seek abundance,
To grow,
Or protection from the elements.
She thrives in the simplicity of open spaces and clear sunlit air.
What she needs,
And what she loves,
Is warmth,
Stability,
And light.
Isn't that what we all need though?
A gentle lavender,
That kind of love that doesn't crowd or control,
But instead encourages us to unfold in our own time.
Spiritually,
Lavender symbolizes peace and serenity,
And embodies calm,
Balance and sacred trust.
Lavender appears when we feel overwhelmed,
When our nervous systems are afraid,
Our thoughts are racing and our souls long for stillness.
Instead of pushing the storm away,
She sits with us,
Like a trusted friend,
Offering her soothing scent as a prayer.
Lavender speaks to the crown chakra,
Encouraging a gentle opening to intuition and a deeper connection to the divine.
She helps clear the fog of worry and restoring that inner clarity.
When lavender manifests in your life,
Whether through dreams,
Essential oils,
Or in your garden,
It often signals that your spirit is urging you to seek a gentle rest and a sacred recalibration.
Lavender's medicine properties benefit both the body and the soul.
Physically,
She serves as a powerful ally by calming the nervous system,
Soothing headaches and tension,
Healing burns and skin irritation,
Easing sleep issues and digestive discomfort.
Spiritually,
Her presence is even more profound.
She teaches us how to return to our center.
She guides us in being present with ourselves,
Without judgment,
And she reminds us to exhale and remember that you are safe,
You are whole,
And you are held.
Lavender releases its most potent frequency,
In frequency,
When we touch it.
When you gently run your hands through her,
The essential oils are activated and her sense comes alive.
She teaches us that our true gifts often emerge when we are seen and held or needed.
So touch is not a disturbance,
It's an activation.
Lavender thrives in the challenging soil of ancient lands.
Her roots are anchored in rich history of places like the Provence and Greece,
Egypt and Australia.
She blooms in areas where history runs deep,
Budding timeless wisdom,
And as the elder in the field,
She shares stories of those who came before,
Offering ancestral support and reminding us that we are not alone.
So how can we invite the support of lavender?
Well,
Burn a spring of dried lavender during a ceremony or meditation to cleanse and calm.
You can add a few drops of lavender oil to your bath or a pillow when you drift off for a restful sleep.
But you can also communicate with her,
Speak out loud to the spirit of lavender,
Thank her,
Invite her wisdom and ask for her presence.
When invoking lavender,
Take your time,
Just whisper her name,
Light a candle,
Place a small bouquet in water,
And allow her gentle energy to infuse your space.
Lavender is the perfect moment to reconnect with yourself,
In the whirlwind of life,
Where your heart feels heavy or your mind craves calm,
Lavender is here to support you.
She gently encourages you to pause,
To breathe,
And to embrace the stillness without any pressure.
With soothing presence,
You are invited to relax and trust in the process.
Lavender is a faithful ally in the rest and spiritual renewal.
Lavender nurtures a gentle approach to recalibrating your spirit and to embrace with the warmth that she brings.
Thank you for listening to this share of lavender.
Of course,
I want to invite you to sit with her in meditation.
