Happy (Belated) Valentines Day! Or Valentines week - or year. Coz really, every day should be a day of LOOOOOVVVEEEE!!! Also, we're a bit late in announcing the entries - too busy being in love (maybe!). We had fun reading this fortnight's entries and pleased to see how many of you brought out your big hearts and wrote about something - anything - to do with love.
Thankyou to @crescendoofpeace, @riverflows, @yestermorrow, @immarojas, @porters, @metametheus, @binkypod, @sagescrub, @maribelquere97, @walkerland, @yogajill, @numondo and @nainaztengera for your entries! We loved all of them, and as usual for the Natural Medicine challenge, everyone's a winner! @riverflows, @naineztengara and @walkerland are exempt from winning of course as they donated to the challenge in various ways.
@walkerland's beautiful photos were enough to get anyone in the mood for love!
As usual, we found it super hard to choose the winners, but four in particular stood out. They were well written and followed the criteria for a good post that we outline in all our guidelines.
Gemstones of Love: A Path To Emotional Healing by @binkyprod
I don't take medication, and I don't take natural drugs. I'm allergic to a lot of chemical products and react badly to a lot of drugs. So that was out of the question. Instead, I turned to nature's natural gifts: gemstones. Read More
Joining Yīn & Yàng, Part 2 by @metametheus
An introduction to the sacred sexuality practices of the Alchemical Taoist tradition. In Part 1 I outlined a history of sexuality in China. In this article, I continue with an examination of the theory and practices of Taoist sexual alchemy. Read More
Love it UP with Emotional Tools for Sharing Vulnerabilities and Building Trustby @sagescrub and @idyllwild
In our last lives we got into the habit of expecting from each other, in so many aspects of our relationship. Like expecting the other to cook, clean, drive the car, give massages, and more. Now we try our best to give or not give, instead of expecting. I like to massage my partner when they are stressed out or feeling tension. This is often right after a truth speak or an emotional check in to help show compassion. Offering a massage isn't always about relieving tension, sometimes its purely about giving love. In any case our favorite way to massage is by candlelight, with or without incense. Read More
