Plants are more than just decorative—they are powerful allies in clearing dense or stagnant energy from a room. If a space feels heavy, stuffy, or energetically off, one of the most effective ways to reset it is by introducing plants. They breathe life into a space—literally and spiritually.
Flies are often a subtle sign of energetic stagnation. If you notice flies, especially around your plants, it’s a message that the energy in the room needs to be cleared. Lavender, Rosemary, Sage, and Yerba Buena are excellent for this. These herbs can be used in oil form, diffused into the air, or burned ceremonially to purify and lighten the space. 💜🙏🏽🌿

Soil as a Mirror of Energy
Plants act as transmuters, absorbing heavy energies directing it through their roots to the soil to ground and releasing them back into the atmosphere as light, vital energy. But when the burden is too great, plants may develop fungus in the soil—a clear sign that the energy in the space is too stagnant for them to earth. In this case, it’s important to care for the soil just as you would care for the plant itself.
Renew the soil regularly by removing the bottom layer, where most of the stagnation accumulates, and replace it with fresh, nutrient-rich soil. There’s no need to repot the entire plant—just gently refresh the base. And remember: do not overwater. Excess moisture can rot the roots and interrupt the plant’s ability to transmute energy effectively.

Natural Antifungals for Soil and Plant Care
While antifungal sprays from the store are readily available, nature offers gentler and more sustainable alternatives:
• Neem oil – a powerful natural antifungal and pest repellent
• Apple cider vinegar – balances pH and combats fungal overgrowth
• Green tea leaves – nourish the soil while acting as a mild antifungal
• Cinnamon – both antifungal and a natural pH balancer
• Banana peel tea – packed with potassium, great for plant vitality
These remedies help plants thrive while keeping their energetic work pure and balanced. 💜🪴

Plants & People: Reflecting Inner Terrain
Just like plants, our bodies reflect the energy we hold and the environment we live in. Fungal infections in the body—particularly persistent ones—are often signs of internal stagnation, especially caused by the overconsumption of sugar and animal proteins.
Common signs of stagnation include:
• Odours from the groin, breath, and feet
• Excessive underarm sweating
• Hormonal imbalances and lung stagnation (often felt as tightness or heaviness in the chest cough and breathlessness)
These physical signs are the body’s way of signaling that it needs cleansing and realignment. Herbs like Lavender, Rosemary, Sage, and Yerba Buena not only support plants—they can also assist in rebalancing our bodies, especially when consumed as teas, tinctures, or used topically.

The Detox Journey: From Stagnation to Vitality
Detoxing from sugar and animal protein helps starve fungal overgrowth in the body. As these microorganisms die off, they can release toxins—like ammonia—into the system as a defense mechanism against the immune response. This can temporarily worsen symptoms and may include:
• Dizziness
• Fatigue
• Low mood or emotional sensitivity
• Nausea
• Body aches, general malaise, rashes
This “die-off” phase can feel intense, but it is part of the healing process. Remember: a sluggish immune system is often overwhelmed by acidity and toxic buildup. These natural reactions are signs that the body is fighting to return to balance.

Kitchen Alchemy Over Pharmaceuticals
While over-the-counter antifungals may offer quick relief, they often burden the liver and spleen, generating excessive internal heat. This can further weaken the system. Instead, choose the path of gentle, consistent healing. Let your kitchen become your apothecary, your sanctuary. Nourish your body and spirit with herbs, mindful detoxing, and intentional care and alchemy.
The path of healing isn’t always easy—but it is sacred. Just as we care for our plants, refreshing their soil and tending to their leaves, we must also tend to our own roots—our bodies, our energy, and our environment.
💜🪴🌿 AHO 🙏🏽🥁
