Grief relief ritual set

mental health / burnout / immunity/ grief / anger / traditional medicine 

This Grief relief ritual set is currently only available for the pay-it-forward option to help the women impacted by EY and the other men who have been called out for predatory behavior. They will be distributed at my Anger Acknowledgment and Release ritual on April 18th (we originally said 19th but we had a conflict) at Supernova Thrift in Boyle Heights. If the person cannot be present it will be mailed out. I’m adding $3 to each order to cover potential shipping costs.

Here’s how it works: Like I did during the Eaton fires, anyone who wants to help support our recovery can do so by sponsoring a grief ritual set for one of the women impacted. 

I created Open Heart and Te De Flores out of my own grief and experience with loss and betrayal. I wanted to address all of the symptoms we feel in our bodies emotionally, physically and spiritually. Open heart helps process anger, grief and fear and Te De Flores helps calm and regulate the nervous system. All things I keep hearing that the women involved are experiencing. So as someone who was also personally impacted and has been impacted in the past by behavior like this, here is my medicine for the community. 

The set includes

Open Heart works from the inside out, supporting the three organs traditional healing systems recognize as the body's primary carriers of grief and anger: the heart, the liver, and the lungs. Ceremonial cacao lifts what has been heavy on your heart, yerba santa releases what the chest has been holding, while dandelion and burdock root help you move through anger so you can work on building a new normal.

Te De Flores works by serving calming, nervine plant medicine directly to a nervous system that has been disregulated by sustained stress, grief, and the invisible labor of holding everything together. Lemon balm, lavender, chamomile, and red rose petal work together to lower cortisol, quiet the racing mind, and create the conditions your immune system needs to finally recover.

Used for:

• The kind of exhaustion that sleep alone doesn't fix
• Burnout that has become your baseline
• Nervous system support after emotional labor, caregiving, or sustained high-stress periods
• Difficulty winding down at the end of the day — when your body is tired but your mind won't follow
• Immune support during grief, loss, or periods of prolonged emotional strain
• Anxiety that lives in the body as tightness, restlessness, or inability to be still
• Building a consistent evening ritual that signals to your nervous system that the day is done
• Rest and recovery 

Key ingredients:

• Lemon Balm — Calms the spirit that has been flooded with too much for too long; de-stresses the nervous system, reduces cortisol response, and gently lifts what has been heavy without numbing what needs to be felt.
• Lavender Flower — Used across traditions for protective and calming ritual work; deeply relaxing to the nervous system, anti-inflammatory, and one of the most historically documented plants for supporting rest and easing anxiety held in the body.
• Red Rose Petal — Opens and nourishes the heart center after periods of depletion; heart-opening, emotionally soothing, and rich in Vitamin C to support immunity alongside the nervous system.
• Chamomile — Gentle, consistent, and deeply trustworthy plant medicine; calms the nervous system, eases digestive tension held from stress, and creates the conditions for genuine rest without sedation.
