BREAK THE BONDS OF UNCONSCIOUS GROOMING
Sukha Self Care Ritual
Open the doorway to authentically give your body care and love through ritual. What makes you feel good? That is what this Sukha Self Care Ritual is all about: the exploration of self and how you like to receive love and care. What comes up when we connect with our body and scalp? Do we like brushing and pulling our hair to release tension? How do we like to sit still? How does it feel to move the body and connect with your breath? What oils and scents spark relaxation and joy? When you look at your skin and feel your hair, what positive or negative thoughts come to your mind and why? What memories are invoked in this process?
This Ritual sets the stage for relaxing our body through gentle movements and allows us to connect more deeply to our breath and self. By creating a ritual around the crown while consciously focusing on movement and breath we are able to let go of our dead ends and other things that no longer serve us, and brush away our worries. Connecting this ritual in conjunction to the Full Moon or New moon phase can deepen its potency.
Brushing Ritual
Start linking your breath with the sounds and movements of the brush and let go of what doesn’t serve you. Count the strokes to calm the movement of the mind. Brush Therapy is great for the soul and scalp. This Ritual can stimulate the scalp by creating blood flow and circulation. Brushing aids in opening up the sebaceous glands and detoxifying the scalp. It gifts our scalp and hair with our own body blend of natural oils, the organic way to condition hair naturally. Your Brush Ritual is a crucial piece in balancing your scalps ecosystem and takes a special part in your weekly hair cycle. Brush Therapy is included and customized into all Holistic Hair Cutting Rituals. Connecting this ritual in conjunction to the Full Moon or New moon phase can deepen its potency.
Braiding Intentions meditation
This ritual has the most power during the waning period of the moon. Set your intentions for release aloud and Desi will use her intuition to channel love through her hands into your sacred locks. The Ritual of Braiding weaves gifts of love and light into magical patterns of authenticity. Throw away your self-limiting beliefs and let Desi bless you with wild flowers from nature. By allowing ourselves this sacred space and ritual we can let go of what doesn’t serve us and begin to set seeds for transformation and healing. Let the brush detoxify your energy and let your crown vibe.
BODY MOVEMENT HEALING
Relaxing our body through gentle movements allows us to connect more deeply to our breath. Body Movement Healing is an easy-going yoga experience for all levels that can open and strengthen the body in a myriad of ways. Every person is welcomed to the practice individually, so that they may focus on the specific movements healing for their body. While taking the poses and micro-poses of yoga, the connection between the body and breath flower into a truly beautiful self-care practice.
Brush Circle
We call on the support of each other through connection and experience. This ritual is used to make connections with one another through the experience of healing touch - something we all have the power to do. Ask, listen, and absorb. The Brush Circle allows us to better communicate how we like our hair brushed or pulled. How do we like to receive tension release through the scalp and hair? Have you ever thought about how we can make our best friend, partner, sibling, parent or child open up to receive self care or love through the crown? Are there experiences that we had in our life around our hair that brought us joy or sadness? This Circle creates natural storytelling and holds sacred space to express and communicate just that. Brush Circle opens up a conversation and connects us to one another through experience. Connecting this ritual in conjunction to the Full Moon or New moon phase can deepen its potency.
HOLISTIC HAIRCUT Ritual
Who doesn’t want to feel good and look beautiful? How can we do this organically and authentically? Desi takes the time to set up and clear the space for every haircut, creating an altar with special stones, tools and herbs to balance the energy of the crown. By connecting for a moment with our breath we can clear the air and start to focus on what the hair and scalp is asking from us. Desi takes the whole person into account when approaching your hair. We all want hair that feels good, has movement, and enhances our features, but let’s also take into account mental and social factors when getting ready to receive a haircut. By taking a ritual holistic approach and working collaboratively, we take our time and talk about what’s going on inside and out of the crown. This is the essence of Holistic Hair Care, unique and rare. Connecting this ritual in conjunction to the Full Moon or New moon phase can deepen its potency.
HOT TOWEL MEDITATION
Breathe, let go, and reset. Let the hot herbal towel heat the body. Inhale natural essences of earth’s flowers. Exhale give space to healing and transformation. Bring awareness to the sensations that arise. The Hot Towel Meditation Ritual can easily be added into any self-care ritual or daily practice.
