Last week I dropped by Teresa’s pharmacy and while I was there I checked out her wall of new products. Just as I reached for some facial cream, I jumped at the sound of a gentleman behind me. “I’d try the sleeping pills if I were you.” He said with a strong Nordic accent. “They…

Following flow with the help of our reaffirming serum
This March, rain or shine, I spent at least one hour per day sitting on my terrace. And each day that I made my entrance, I was greeted by the tiled flower pots, the garden lanterns and flower buds waiting, in tiny ball-shaped sizes, to flower. As the days passed and I found old leaves…
Embody the Healing Light at Midnight
I sat last night on a roof terrace with a very dear friend Benjamin Swatez. This friend of mine is very special because his heart is explosive and his mind is amazing. As we usually do, we deep dived into a sentimental chat and happened to land on the full moon. Together we realised that…
All that glitters is not gold
Seeing the glory of the Christmas tree occupy the once empty corner of my living room, I look at her through the eyes of a child that once was. The child that falls in love with the flickering lights that reflect and canvass the surrounding walls. The child that is comforted by the delicate touch…
Our feet need our love so take good care of them
The feet are the ones to think about when we need to take good care of ourselves. They are the ones that take you to the real place of love. They are the ones that are your soul. They are the ones that know where you want to go. They are the ones that understand…
Embrace the healing energy of the full moon
Wicca’s and wolves are not alone in their devotion to the lunar cycle. Humans too, whether consciously or not, appear to be affected by the rhythms of the moon. Historically bound by negative qualities, with the labelling of ‘lunatics’ and ‘moon struck’ and what not. These days, the human race displays far more conscious connections…
Glow with carrot oil cream
Myth and legend talk of the Gods and Goddesses as some distant historic figures. Yet we are all attracted to, and somewhat in awe of these bronzed figures standing solid and strong, looking radiant and invincible and carrying the courage to live their truth. But the reality is, the Gods and Goddesses live within all…
Local lifestyles: Gilles
Tell me about yourself I was born in Geneva in Switzerland but now I work as a versatile musician, primarily a pianist, and I’m based in Barcelona. What does a healthy lifestyle mean to you? For me it means getting enough sleep (which is important for a musician…
Be lighter with BB cream
Stuff. Is. Stressful…..say many people these days. In the wake of a period of abundance, and a greed we have ironically agreed to, we finally seem to be consciously shifting from a materialistic society of overindulgence to that of a society that is more experientially focused. Living more experientially typically coincides with living more simply….
Sensational stinging nettles – a super herb
There are times where we search high and low for medicine or cures to aid our healing process and overcome certain ailments and health issues that live with us. Sometimes we find those cures in the form of pharmaceutical remedies, sometimes in the form of medical technologies, sometimes in the form of certain healing therapies…
Our favourite trekking routes around Barcelona
The wise among us know that nature heals. Aside from its medicinal effects, simply taking a moment to observe, feel and absorb the energising and healing power of nature is rather profound. Yet to meet anyone who disagrees, nature dispenses her healing through all of our senses, lifting our spirits and displaying the results in…
From Barcelona to Peru: What you need from the pharmacy
We wouldn’t be presumptuous and assume that travelling to Peru would include a visit to the Inca trail. But chances are, that warm embrace from Peruvian Mother Nature will draw in your soul like a loving magnet. She has once again seduced us with her charms and packed us off, with her love and blessings,…
