    22 Aphrodisiacs Do They Work?
    Feb 12 2023
    Valentine's Day is just a couple of days away, and this show is about the holiday from a woman's perspective, whether you are in a relationship or not. I've been married for almost 30 years, and I want to put the holiday into perspective. My friends and I discuss the unrealistic expectations set by society and the impact they can have on mental health.   The greeting card industry created Valentine's Day as a marketing ploy and its history, including the concept of aphrodisiacs. Brenda's guest mentions that she creates boundaries for herself and celebrates the holiday in a more meaningful and personal way, with her family and in a cozy manner.   The show also gets into the topic of aphrodisiacs and the concept of herbal actions related to aphrodisiacs. I share different cultures, including the Greeks and the Chinese, who have documented their beliefs in aphrodisiacs and the use of herbal remedies.   (Go To LLH Website) Book Recommendations (Affiliate Links) The Sexual Herbal: Prescriptions for Enhancing Love and Passion, by Brigitte Mars A.H.G Making Love Potions: 64 All-Natural Recipes for Irresistible Herbal Aphrodisiacs, by Stephanie L.

  • Smudging - Clear the old energy out and welcome in the new energy

    Smudging - Clear the old energy out and welcome in the new energy
    Feb 7 2023
    Smudging is a traditional practice that has been used for centuries and is a popular tool in many spiritual communities today. It is a simple yet powerful way to reset and refresh energy and create a peaceful atmosphere by burning herbs or incense and releasing the smoke that carries away any old negative energy and invites in new, positive energy. Smudging can be used for various purposes, from cleansing your home to healing your body, mind, and spirit. In this blog post, we’ll explore smudging, how it works, why it’s important, and tips on how to smudge correctly.
