Yesterday, I didn't share anything on social media and didn't sent any emails to my subscribers. I didnt plan anything really.
What I did plan and prepare was a day out with my son, while my partner had his first weekend event to showcase his business.

What I didnt expect was to feel like this on Mother's Day โค๏ธ (if you watch till the end and turn the volume on, you'll here my constant soundtrack)

So much love to all mothers and everyone who mothers in so many ways, to others, to projects, to plants, to businesses, to older parents, to children who are not their own but who own their hearts.
With care.
With presence.
With passion.
With exhaustion.
With chaos.
With life.

Dani.

When I had my son, I didn't wear any earrings for the first 4 months of his life. I was scared of scratching his soft skin, constantly thinking about protecting him, and like many mamas, terrified of having them pulled from my earlobes.

But one day, I decided it was time to reclaim that special thing that is wearing something beautiful. The ritual of carefully choosing the right pair for that exact day, moment and mood. I have always been a big earrings kind of person, and I was craving to go back to a part of myself that felt it had been left quite behind.

So I put on a beautiful set of long dangling polymer clay earrings in blue and red, that I bought for myself on my birthday a few months before, and waited to see my little one's reaction.

When he saw them, he reached out with his tiny hand, and while I was holding it, I said "These are mamรก's. These are important to me. We don't pull them."

I took them off and showed them up close so he could see and feel them. A few days later, I wore a different pair and he tried again. I repeated exactly the same words, let him touch them, and he never did it again.

And just like that, I had found my way back to myself. Something so small, and yet a reminder that you don't have to disappear into motherhood.

There was something else I let go of during that time too: essential oils. I knew the sense of smell of a newborn is quite sensitive, and I didn't want to disrupt our bonding and connection throughout those first months.

But essential oils have been part of my life for almost two decades, and I always knew I would find my way back to them, especially because of their therapeutic properties.

So this May, I wanted to offer you something that carries that same intention: coming back to yourself

With each piece purchased this May, you will receive a unique essential oil roll-on, handcrafted to support your nervous system and to bring rest and nourishment to your body and mind.

Because this is what you deserve, not just in May, but always. Rest, nourishment, and feeling like yourself again.

For some, Mother's Day is about pampering yourself, having time on your own, and feeling relaxed in your body, however that might look.

For some, it's about remembering who you are.
And being remembered and acknowledged for everything that you do.

All the love, the care, the patience, the sleepless nights, the feeds, the lunchboxes, the constant assessments of multiple choice situations (๐˜‹๐˜ฐ ๐˜ ๐˜ธ๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ต ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ ๐˜ด๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ? ๐˜ž๐˜ช๐˜ญ๐˜ญ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜บ ๐˜ง๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฑ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ค๐˜ข๐˜ณ ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ธ? ๐˜ž๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฉ) ...

All that is poured onto them.

And for some, it's about being reminded.

That you are important.

May all the beauty, care, and love be poured back onto you.
