December 2023
Hi beautiful friend,
I've spent the last three weeks in Kansas City and driving back to LA with Connor. We loved our road trip ~ from KC to Santa Fe, to the Grand Canyon, and ending in Phoenix with family friends before returning to California. I'll share my highlights as you scroll down, but it was just so great. I loved getting to feel the snow falling on my skin and feel the seasons change so drastically, exploring with Con, and seeing so much beautiful art (nature and woman-made).
Upon coming home, I am feeling so inspired to weave myself into the cozy hibernation of December. To paint and read and create and to be in the fertile darkness that is the blanket of winter. An image I've been describing to many clients of the star sparkled night sky as a blanket over you :'). I have SO many offerings that want to happen early next year and even events and collaborations - wow - and I want to hibernate so that I can dream and imagine into these containers, and then share these gifts when it's time.
One that I can't help but share a bit now ~ a 6 Week Depth Offering ~ I am witnessing clients going deeper into the inner work with themselves, and with myself in my own work as well, I have been finding that we are all experiencing a yearning to go deeper together. I am craving to create a container to do this work, to guide my clients through their rock bottom journeys and out the other side into the light, as with every contraction there is expansion (and vice versa!). This container is going to be very yummy one-on-one, rooted in the Divine Feminine and held in the container of the Sacred Masculine. When we do this deep feminine work, she likes the container to feel safe to unfold within. These sessions will include shamanic healing, Tarot, Sun Sessions, Distance Reiki, and Voxer support between sessions (Voxer is a chat app where we can text / voice note / send podcasts to each other, and have a giggle between sessions). This will be a sacred safe space held in the frequencies of unconditional love, compassion, and non-judgement. It is a place to resolve heartbreak, move through rock bottoms, fully step into new chapters, embracing and honoring your DIVINE MAGIC within and your unique radiant Great Bright Light - to shine your true essence.
If this feels resonant, I would love so much to speak and am offering 30 min phone calls to chat ~ just respond to this email :)

A few other things to share: I was interviewed a few weeks ago on The Feminine Profiles Podcast. Brooke Baldwin interviews me and we had a really lovely conversation, And we have so much in common! This is an in-depth conversation about my timelines working in fashion and beauty to being a Healer, how I got started meditating and how my depression and anxiety as a child propelled me to where I am today. I highly recommend listening <3 Thank you, Brooke!

While in Kansas, I started reading The Song of Achilles and I could not freaking put it down!! I just finished it last week while enjoying tea with my dear friend Emma. I looked up at her with tears streaming down my face as I read the last sentence, it was so beautiful. If you like Greek Mythology and Call Me By Your Name…this was pretty much made for you.

This is the last month of this little Reiki promotion I've been offering to celebrate and honor the System of Reiki and my Master training that I received in October. I am offering 11% off in-person and distance Reiki Sessions through the end of the year (the rest of the month!!). I don't have too much availability for in-person sessions left, so if you've been feeling called or curious yourself…this is a tender opportunity to connect.
The code is REIKILOVE1111
~~~ WINTER REIKI BLESSINGS!!!!! ~~~
Road Trip Highlight: Santa Fe
I asked on Instagram for Santa Fe recommendations and WOW we received so many. We were only in Santa Fe for one night and half a day before heading to the Grand Canyon, but we loved it so much. We were sad to leave, especially L'Ecole Des Beaux Arts, where we very happily spent one full hour. Save these for later :)
L'Ecole Des Beaux Arts - A magical watercolor store down a little alley off of Canyon Road. They have beautiful paints and classes, too!
Cafe Pasquals - We had an incredible breakfast here without knowing that this restaurant is very well known and James Beard award winning hahah. I had eggs and beans with their delicious gluten free super seed bread and raspberry jam, and Connor had the huevos mulates (the Mexico City take on huevos rancheros). The restaurant is inside an original Pueblo !
Ten Thousand Waves and Izanami - A secret tucked away Japanese spa and restaurant. Upon driving up a dark mountain, we walked up 90 steps of snow lit by paper lanterns to this dining oasis. We sat in the tatami room and drank sake and enjoyed ourselves :)
El Rey Court - Where we stayed! Very cute and very easy. We didn't get to enjoy the bar because we were at our sushi dinner, but the interiors were inspiring.
Folklore - Boutique with small vendors that I like and a room in the back for meditation and healing events.
Kakawa Chocolate House - A tiny pueblo with drinking chocolate :')
La Mama - A cute cafe we stopped at before hitting the road to the Grand Canyon. We were sad to go!

Winter Solstice Event
To celebrate the darkest day of the year, the day that the light returns, please join me in a virtual event from the coziness of your own home.
I will offer a channeled healing meditation, journal prompts, Tarot, and some thoughts on the energies of Winter that we can apply in our daily lives.
This event is rooted in mindfulness, the Divine Feminine, and the Wise Woman tradition of healing. Get ready for Winter to become your new favorite season :')

My Daily Nourishing Herbal Infusion
Since starting The School of the Sacred Wild in September, it is part of our curriculum to drink an herbal infusion of a nourishing herb daily. This practice has changed my life. I have never slept better, I have never woken up easier, I feel more hydrated and satiated, I could go on.
The nourishing herbs are the safest category of herbs to work with. They grow wildly, freely, and abundantly all over the globe, which is Mother Earth telling us, here sweetie, these are for you! please! Some nourishing herbs you may already be familiar with that I love are Nettles, Oatstraw, Alfalfa, Red Clover and Red Raspberry Leaf.
For the month of November and December, I have been working with Burdock. As a Winter concoction, I am adding Reiki and Cinnamon and am just even more in love with these plants. Burdock is nourishing my root chakra, and Reishi my nervous system. I feel so grateful to work with these plants.
To create your own ~ here is an article that my teacher Marysia wrote for Christy Dawn a little while back. She also has her book, which I highly recommend.
Places to order / get herbs ~ Starwest Botanicals, Wild Terra in LA, Amina Mundi in LA, Flower Power in NYC, Harvest Moon in KC, Mountain Rose Herbs, and Oshala Farms
Tarot Readings
During an Intuitive Tarot Reading session, Gaby channels your Higher Self, Spiritual Team, and Angels to help you gain clarity. If you are asking yourself, “How can I connect more to my intuition?”, or “What the hell is going on right now?”, or “Should I leave my job?”, or “When am I going to meet ‘my person’?” Tarot readings may be a good option for you.
They are perfect if you have a question you would like support/guidance/action steps on answering, and are supportive for quick clarity. I also love to pull Tarot to set intentions at the beginning of each month, or to open or close new chapters of life. These sessions are enough time for one - two questions; if you'd like a longer session, just email :)
Time after time, clients leave feeling empowered and loved.
