With summer coming on, bringing with it the heat, Hive account@artemislives has bought a wonderful home remedy to beat the heat! Check out their post here. They write:

And I felt the questions bubble up slowly:
Why do some people wilt at 32C while others can happily be out and about when it's 42C with no ill effects?
Why do I 'handle the heat so much better on some days?

Hive account@choogirl has given us a 4 part, indepth article from her experience and lessons from Mother Ayahuasca. In this part four she taps into some powerful energies and something unexpected was revealed - on selfishness. Check out their post here. They write:

In my usual fashion, I then went outside. I sat on the grass facing the beautiful tree that I noticed last night. The full moon was glowing overhead. She had a ring around her tonight as well. Placing my hands on the grass, I focused on tapping into the tree's energy while connecting my Third eye chakra to the Lunar chakra. I had no desire to tap into that powerful source energy deep within the Earth tonight. This now makes sense to me, knowing that ayahuasca ceremonies, not yagé ceremonies, are associated with the Earth and earth spirits.

Hive account@walkerland has brought us some plant magic beautifully illustrated through her amazing photography. Go be touched by a little magic - Check out their post here. They write:

We've just emerged from a very long winter where we had snow on the ground for over six months. As we begin to spend more time outdoors, we spend a lot of time observing and re-connecting with all of the flora and fauna. Everywhere I look there are miracles and wonders to behold. Living on the land, and spending our days outdoors, affords us the opportunity to appreciate an abundance of magic from growth, birth, life, connections, creations, beauty and even decay and death.
