The Alchemy of Cinnamon

Adora Winquist January 29, 2025

The brightness of Spring. The reawakening of life. Not only does the earth come alive again in the northern hemisphere, but so do we.

Are You a Modern Alchemist?

Adora Winquist March 2, 2024

Traditional Alchemy is considered to focus on transmuting base metals to gold, but true alchemy is the process of finding the gold that is held inside all of your life’s experiences to date. The path of the modern alchemist is a quest to find the master keys to your most fulfilling and vibrant life. It is the hero or heroine’s journey that focuses on transforming the world within you.

Adora Winquist December 31, 2023

This South American “holy wood” produces an essential oil of a deep, earthly, and woodsy aroma, with such potent depth it easily transcends space and time.

Abundance: Expanding Your Receivership

Adora Winquist October 18, 2023

From a seasonal perspective, Fall is a time of harvest. We reap the great bounty of our gardens of plenty: Both physically for those of us that cultivate home gardens as well as metaphorically. As we reflect on the latter and focus inward, we can see how our intentional seeds of creation have grown to bear the fruits of our creativity, love, and vitality. Are you inspired by what is flourishing in your life right now?

Fall Equinox

Adora Winquist September 3, 2023

The Fall Equinox marks a rare intersection of the Sun and the celestial realms creating a potent planetary alignment, heightening the alchemical frequencies for intentional creation. From a seasonal perspective, this is a time of harvest. We reap the great bounty of our gardens of plenty: Both physically for those of us that cultivate home gardens as well as metaphorically.

5 Ways to Manifest Self Love

Adora Winquist March 29, 2023

The aroma of spring is in the air. A hint of awakening daffodils, hyacinth, and a touch of warmth comes through the cool morning breeze. Spring is a time of new beginnings, hope for the future, and a fresh infusion of energy and lifeforce. To fully receive this renewed sense of vitality and clarity, we are called to let go of the old patterns that no longer serve us.

Neroli to Awaken the Mystical Heart

Adora Winquist March 3, 2023

Neroli’s bright aroma lifts the spirit and speaks to the remembrance of joy and lightheartedness. Neroli is highly beneficial for those who tend to be harsh and critical of themselves and can assist in shifting this energy to that of self-love and compassion. This oil assists in dissolving extreme emotions like jealousy, anger, and self-hatred. It aids in settling shock and counterbalancing PTSD.

The Alchemy of Rose

Adora Winquist February 20, 2023

The alchemy of true rose essential oil is glorious. Via inhalation, it instantly opens the heart when the individual holds this intention. The synergistic effect of positive intention and the rose can move mountains of stagnant emotion from the heart space. The vibration of letting go is held within its energy signature.

Realistic New Year's Resolutions

Adora Winquist February 4, 2023

To feel better, we need to revolutionize how we view our practices on self-care and self-love. I believe that all change first starts with an invitation. What do you want to invite in for your greater holistic health and wellbeing in this moment as well as this year? Start general. That way, neither the body or mind can put up a wall of resistance to change, which is sometimes a natural psychological response.

The Benefits of Sound Therapy

Adora Winquist December 31, 2022

Since ancient times, we have been drawn to sound. Harmonious frequencies that come through music, tones, and various forms of sound therapy have a direct and immediate effect on our psyche and the harmony of our body, mind, and spirit. Quantum physics proves that everything in the universe is energy. All energy is in a state of constant vibration, oscillating at certain frequencies at the subatomic level.

5 Tips to Optimize Neuroplasticity

Adora Winquist December 8, 2022

Since the early explorations of phrenology, we have collectively sought to understand and improve brain function, particularly during the process of aging. Neuroplasticity explores the changes in the function and structure of the brain in relation to experience. Sometimes referred to as rewiring or repatterning, modern day research on neuroplasticity indicates a far greater potential for new neural connections and networks as well as improved learning, memory, and mood regulation.

SOS: The Adora Frequency: Open

Adora Winquist October 9, 2022

I thought I would share a little story with you that is germane to the Adora Frequency and how it relates to me as an individual, as well as the Brennan school. For those of you that have gone through the program, you know we go into the depth of our core wounding in the first year. In the very first experience, we were brought back into the state of infancy and core wounding of the schizoid characterology, which was quite a surprise.

My Journey to Sourcing the Purest Aromatics

Adora Winquist October 7, 2022

I began my study of medicinal plants and esoteric philosophy at the age of 18 after having a mystical awakening with a local shaman in the foothills of Northern California. As someone who always felt the most at home in nature, I began to hear the flowers and trees communicating with me in new ways. The study of vibrations and healing properties of scents, sounds and colors continued to draw me deeper into this mystical realm.
