Sometimes things happen in life that cause us to take a step back and either consciously or unconsciously defend ourselves against the possibility of further pain. Perhaps you’ve been through a breakup, are grieving a loved one, or have felt humiliated or hurt by someone or something.

At times like those, it’s natural for us to withdraw into our shells like a hermit crab, creating an emotionally safe space to retreat into.

Have you been hiding yourself away?

The thing is though, if we want our lives to be characterised by rich relationships and experiences, at some point, it’s best to come back out of our shells and re-engage with the world around us.

If that period of re-emergence is where you’re at right now - or where you’d like to be in coming weeks or months,  Peek-A-Boo is the flower essence for you. We make it from the stunning Pig Face flower pictured above. This native Aussie plant is on a mission to remind us all that it’s safe - and even delightful - to open our hearts and allow ourselves to shine.

On a personal note, although we try not to play favourites around here, in all honesty, I love the way taking  Peek-A-Boo makes me feel. It always brings with it a sense of open-heartedness, optimism and the gentle encouragement that it will soon be time to let go things that may have felt like essential emotional armour in the past.

Flower Essence Mist of the week!

Have you tried our Peek-A-Boo Flower Essence Mist yet? Combining Peek-A-Boo with lovingly chosen heart-opening essential oils, it’s become a firm favourite with many of our Tribe members. (Personally, I love that it blends the woody masculine scent of frankincense with the rosy floral aroma of palmarosa… together they make a very romantic combo!)
