It has been a very challenging week at work this week, and it wasn't just challenging for me, but for all my co-workers. It was just a bad energy week, which was really weird.
I was so blessed when one of our clients came in and brought me these two beautiful holistic gifts, which one is a homemade natural candle and a Palo Santo incense stick, which is really a piece of burning wood that has cleansing and healing properties.



One of our clients started her own home business, after being off from work for so long after having a car accident and she just wanted to bless some people during these hard times and I just happen to be one of them. Yay.
On Tuesday, she asked me if I like incense sticks and I said that I don't really like them since they give me a headache and that I like using essential oils instead. And then she explained how the incense sticks she uses are natural wood sticks that come from Ecuador and that they have energetically cleansing and healing properties, similar to Sage and Cedar and that she would love to give me a sample since she really likes to make people feel better, especially in these hard times.
That sounded really interesting to me and I have never heard about the Palo Santo incense stick.
On Friday, the lady brought me not just the incense stick but also a natural homemade candle that she also has made.
I loved the holistic gift and really felt so blessed. I have not tried it yet, but definitely, will next weekend, since this week is going to be a very busy and hard week for me since I will be working all by myself, since my coworker is taking a week off, so that means 13 and 10 hr shifts from Monday to Friday, which means that I will probably not be able to work on the hive, since being on the computer for 13 hrs a day is enough to beat me up and not wanting to be on any phones or computers. Sorry guys.
This is what I have learned about these beautiful Palo Santo:
Palo Santo is enjoyed by many for its energetically cleansing and healing properties similar to Sage and Cedar. It is a strong medicine that has been popularized for its heavenly presence in Ayahuasca ceremonies while keeping energies grounded and clear. It creates a pleasant, fresh smoke that works well in keeping away mosquitoes and other flying insects which is one of the prime uses for the people who live in Ecuador and Peru. It provides an uplifting scent that raises your vibration in preparation for meditation and allows for a deeper connection to the Source of all creation. It is also said that Palo Santo enhances creativity and brings good fortune to those who are open to its magic.
This raw material is extracted under a suitable plan of forest managing, across a sustainable and responsible extraction.
Hope you guys had a great week and wish you all a wonderful, peaceful Sunday and I will try my hardest to be here this coming week, but to tell you the truth, I am really nervous about this coming week at work, but wish you all a very blessed and peaceful week .
Love @joalvarez.
I am a great supporter of @familyprotection who is working very hard to help the families stay together and this project is the most amazing project that I would suggest for everyone in this hive community to check it out and support it and by doing it we are helping people in need who are trying to keep their kids safe from being taken away (kidnapped) by the Social Services.
