Love your idea, beautiful work. I started gardening was on 9 different medications and within 4 months I was on 2. No medication can come close to what getting your hands dirty can do for yourself and your soul!❤

Husband and I lost our son and went there yesterday… still grieving…skeptical… omg!! This woman is certainly a phenomenal vessel who helped us to get “unstuck”. She has wisdom, she was patient and a healer. We left there much better than we walked in there. I suggest for everyone who is grieving to see her. You will be transformed.

I'm so sorry for your loss, sister.🫂 Glad you got some healing though, what this woman is doing is beautiful. Finally something positive on the news 💗

Ladybug!!! I didn’t realize this video was on KZbin nor that you’d written a note. ✨ You two were just the sweetest reward for this work of heART. I felt so privileged to have been there for y’all and I’ll never ever forget the love and tenderness you both shared with each other in presence. You are in my prayers🌿💕
