Rose Petaled Uprising: Sun-Protectant Cream

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010/08/sun-protectant-cream.html

Tuesday, August 10, 2010. For the past three seasons I have been making my own sunscreen and I have come up with a formula that I really like. These last two seasons I started testing it out on others. I was kinda nervous- like maybe it wouldn't work- but ALL have reported great success. One friend even compared it by putting spf. 30 on one arm and my cream on the other with equal results. (though she doesn't strike me as a person who burns easily). I would rate it at more of an Spf. The sunscreen is a c...

Rose Petaled Uprising: August 2010

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html

Tuesday, August 10, 2010. I took these photos last week, while in the midwest visiting family. To me it was an incredibly healing trip, completely unexpected and both a sad and joyous occasion. My aunt Jan has been dealt an incredibly difficult hand (several really)- having had cancer four times and i was called home to gather at her bedside in a circle of love. She was expected to only live a few days. 15- but i think it needs to be applied OFTEN. Tried it yet, i could definitely. Have been quite that e...

Rose Petaled Uprising: a little sunshine in winter

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010/03/little-sunshine-in-winter.html

Thursday, March 4, 2010. A little sunshine in winter. I feel so blessed to have such beautiful teachers. when i am quiet enough, i hear their voice within me. I took this picture of burdock, in a field near my house on a dreary day last week. i was struck by how radiant it felt- a little expansive ray of light- beauty to behold in our own dark season. Plus, i've been too busy with school-work to be a blog-star, so i thought i'd tide you over with a visual. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Rose Petaled Uprising: spring love: violets

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010/04/spring-love-violets.html

Tuesday, April 27, 2010. It's spring and i am in love. With this abundant, beautiful and momentary beauty! Precious, precious gifts of spring: violets! My deepest love, only second to roses (oh and holy basil. and. well. you know how it goes). but violets were truly the first. And i so rejoice in seeing them return spring after spring- a little message of hope. The gifts of the earth. And this is how i perceive. Pretend to formally educate you for a bit. I love nothing more than putting a spring salad to...

Rose Petaled Uprising: May 2010

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

Friday, May 28, 2010. With a growing awareness in the honey bee and pollinator population and their recent decline- we have been called to ask questions about how our current way of living is impacting all living beings. We ask if cell phones or genetically modified organisms or mono-cropping are to blame for the disappearance of these magical and vital creatures? But, the evidence has been inconclusive. My opinion is that it is the asking. How could they not influence all health and well-being? View my ...

Rose Petaled Uprising: February 2010

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html

Monday, February 22, 2010. Coconut rose love oil. So now i am one of those people who has to wear a belt. Everywhere i go, with my hipster fanny pack attached- so i can keep my little book of inspirations and my camera ready, to give visual to my journey. I'll try and keep it to one topic though- of the many things i feel excited about lately- okay, really just from the last few hours. umm, have become narcissistic so quickly? I am not used to having this much life pumping through my veins. Which is hard...

Rose Petaled Uprising: the flow of life

http://rosepetaleduprising.blogspot.com/2010/02/flow-of-life.html

Sunday, February 21, 2010. The flow of life. Since I started blogging (wow, did I just say that? So I am trying to dedicate myself with the tone of deepest self-respect, to letting myself have that emotional release that comes up every moon cycle, and also to not let anything too intense. So, I’ve always been one to feel a little enraged, when well-meaning folks, tell their bleeding allies to not take those feelings that come up at “that time of the month” (grr! We react to them. It’s bath time. On a fin...
