Spring clean and sweep up the savings with 50% off the purchase of any handmade Ozark Mountain broom.  Some have sassafras handles; others have driftwood handles – all are unique.  According to Feng Shui principles, the broom symbolizes insight and wisdom and is believed to have the power to sweep away negative energy, worry and trouble.  This ancient Chinese are counsels that the broom be hung by the door, symbolically sweeping out energy that no longer serves you well, making room for positive energy and prosperity.  While supply lasts.

Ducks with Attitude!
Spring hasn’t sprung until ducks and their chicks usher it in.  We have hand carved Ducks with Attitude!  First, they were a huge hit in England.  Now, they’ve flown across the pond and taken America by storm.  And it’s all because of their Attitude!  Made from bamboo root, each one is a unique character with its own name and personality.  No two ducks are exactly the same.  During the month of March these whimsical creations are 50% off.  They are happy both indoors and outside.  They will weather a bit outside, but that only adds to their character.  While supply lasts.

Soap
It’s difficult to Spring clean without soap.  As such, enjoy 50% off on ALL of our soaps: Dr. Bronner’s liquid soap, Dr. Bronner’s individually wrapped soap bars, and naked handmade soap bars from Vermont Soaps.  You will additionally enjoy 50% off all liquid pump hand soap, and oat/milk bath by Aura Cacia.  While supply lasts.

Introducing our newest jewelry artist
    Sydney Lynch   
                   16 year old owner of Fearless Mess

 
About the Artist

If it is in an art or craft store,
 
chances are that Sydney has tried it out...

               and then left a mess

But watching her work,

you know that something else is happening.

Communicating through art, connecting with people through art, creating because that is exactly what you are supposed to be doing at that moment. 

And truly – does God see the mess or result? 

Is God not pleased with being asked inside to play?

Sydney Lynch of Fearless Mess
Sydney Lynch sews with or without a pattern, solders, draws, paints, writes songs, collages, cooks from scratch, knits, takes pictures, loves fountain pens, melts wax, cuts friends hair, felts, dyes fabric...

And unapologetically leaves a fearless mess thank you very much.

To see Sydney’s work, click on this link.  Better yet, come to HolEssence and see her work in person.  You’ll be amazed!

 

Book Coupons
Is there a book or music CD we carry at HolEssence that you are interested in, but you have a book or music coupon from Borders or Barnes and Nobel?  We will be happy to honor their unexpired coupons at HolEssence.  Each of our monthly newsletters features a book and music CD.  Our competitors unexpired coupons can be used on the featured items (while supply lasts), or any other book or music CD.

  • Discover your strengths and skills
  • Turn your fears and negative feelings into positive tools
  • Diagram the path to your goal—and map out target dates for meeting it
  • Chart your progress—day by day

Koyasan
By Deuter

Koyasan is blissfully nearer to silence than what we have become so used to tolerating.  It invites relaxation and calm.  Perfect for meditation, Reiki or any body work, its shakuhachi and koto flutes pave the way for releasing tension and providing a serenity that is hard to come by these days.  Everything about it is calming.  Take a deep breath, listen to the sample and say ahhhhh.

Mangano Calcite
Mangano Calcite
Mangano Calcite (Pink Calcite) is sometimes called the "Reiki Stone". It has a soothing but powerful energy and is an excellent complement to energy healing modalities such as Reiki because of its excellent properties of energy amplification.

This is a gentle stone of forgiveness that brings unconditional love. It is used to:
  • Release fear and grief from the past that is trapping you
  • Assist in developing self-worth and self-acceptance
  • Heal nervous conditions
  • Lift tension and anxiety
  • Reduces nightmares

Mangano Calcite heals inner-child hurts and past abuse by filling one with a sense of unconditional, motherly love.  It is also effective in relieving anxiety, stress and tension and helps to dissolve fears of all kinds.

Physically Mangano Calcite is beneficial for general health and healing, bones, joints, kidney, uterus and physical heart issues.

Mangano Calcite is associated with the heart and higher heart chakras.

Looking Ahead - Calendar of Events

Looking Ahead
You may register for an event up to 30-days prior to its occurrence.  This insures equal opportunity registration for everyone.  Simply call 815-276-7173 to reserve your seat.  Registration is not available via email.

April's event is a "twofer" - Laurie will present the Crystal Therapy 1-Day Intensive, while Karen Wylie is in the other room facilitating 
Create Your Own Crystal Jewelry.


The June calendar has an exciting change!  Rather than Laurie doing the Life Harmony workshop, Sheila Glazov, author of "What Color Is Your Brain"  is going to do a picnic-style workshop; part of which will be held outside on our back lawn.  Stay tuned for more details ...
