Sacred Self Care Sessions

Your Self is Sacred, Your care is Potent

At its core, sacred self-care is about honoring yourself and recognizing that you deserve moments of tranquility and rejuvenation.

It's not just about pampering or indulgence, though those aspects matter, but about creating a sustainable routine that supports your overall well-being. Think of it as an ongoing dialogue with yourself, where you listen to your needs and respond with kindness and care


Creating time and space for yourself as you move through personal shifts, challenges, and triumphs is a powerful way to honor yourself.
Holding that sacred space together is an opportunity for you to receive deep relaxation and integrate healing.

In each bodywork session we will use specific herbs to relax, balance, and nourish the nervous system to promote whole body wellness.

  • In ancient times throughout history, foot washing was a sacred ritual significant for spiritual & holy occasions. The ritual of cleansing the feet signifies purification and brings balance to the body & mind, as well as the spirit, preparing one for sacred ceremonies & rites of passage.

    Our feet are the grounding pillars of our body ~ they keep us connected and hold us steady as we move through life. The feet have an incredible amount of blood flow with energy points that supports our whole being. The soles of the feet are a potent way to receive herbal medicine and is deeply soothing for the nervous system. It is a cornerstone of our well-being to tend to them with love & care for whole body wellness.

    In these modern times we can practice this ritual as a form of sacred self-care, while also experiencing many health benefits including increased circulation, reducing inflammation, relieves muscle tension, relaxes the mind, settles the nervous system, decreases anxiety, improves sleep, promotes emotional healing & well-being… which can all lead to feeling more balanced.

Your sacred foot soak ritual begins with a brief chat about what you may be moving through, calling in, celebrating or releasing. Our softening salt soak and sugar oat scrub are then custom blended with plants, flowers, & oils that will be most nourishing for your personal experience.

    Herbal Poultices:

    can reduce inflammation, encourage circulation and lymphatic drainage

    help balance hormones, relieve joint pain, boost the immune system and tone the skin.

    The warmth of the poultice and aroma of the herbs combine to create a deeply soothing experience.

  • You should not drybrush if you are undergoing any serious medical treatments, such as chemotherapy, or have any serious health conditions, as it can be too stimulating.

    People with open or inflamed skin, including eczema and psoriasis, should avoid dry brushing over the inflamed area.

    Please refrain from shaving and/or waxing, as well as sun exposure the day of your drybrush treatment. Or have recently had any kind of chemical exfoliation on the body.

This potent combination of dry brushing the body, is followed by a nourishing herbal poultice, and a soothing body oiling massage ~ the ultimate in a sacred self care experience.

Drybrushing stimulates the lymph, circulatory, nervous, and digestive systems while encouraging the skin to eliminate toxins by increasing blood flow. It also opens pores to absorb the herbal nutrients from the poultice that follows.

My custom herbal poultices include a nourishing blend of plants & petals wrapped in organic cotton muslin and steam heated. With the skin exfoliated and the lymphatic system stimulated, your flesh is then ready to absorb herbal nutrients. The poultice is lightly kneaded over the body; allowing the herbs to make their magic soothing muscles and calming the nervous system.

All of this primes the body to receive a nourishing body oiling massage with Sheswai’s Sacred Serum Body OIl from top to toes.

Each session includes:

  • an intention ritual

  • custom herbal tea infusion

  • guided plant meditation

  • set of (2) dry brushes to keep

  • 2 herbal poultices ~ poultices can be added to bath at home.
