“Heal yourself with the light of the sun & the rays of the moon. With the sound of the river & the waterfall. With the swaying of the sea & the fluttering of birds. Heal yourself with mint, neem, & eucalyptus. Sweeten with lavender, rosemary, & chamomile. Hug yourself with the cocoa bean & a hint of cinnamon. Put love in tea instead of sugar & drink it looking at the stars. Heal yourself with the kisses that the wind gives you & the hugs of the rain. Stand strong with your bare feet on the ground & with everything that comes from it. Be smarter every day by listening to your intuition, looking at the world with your forehead. Jump, dance, sing, so that you live happier. Heal yourself, with beautiful love, & always remember...YOU are the medicine.”
