Hi there,

I am Chloe Palmer - I am a busy single mother of an adorable 5yo boy, a sound healer, a musician and a passionate herbalist.

I was raised by a naturopath- so my whole life I have been working with and around medicinal plants. I got a degree in music performance and a diploma in wellness and relaxation massage- at the time I thought they were something to keep me occupied, but now they are a huge part of how I support myself and my son and how I give back to my community.

I often struggled with anxiety, worry, overwhelm and overthinking, so I looked to my naturopath brother (yup- he’s one- just like Dad) for some great herbs to help reduce the symptoms of my dis-regulated nervous system. I realised that most of my symptoms could be traced back to stress! I was recommended a tincture with a few herbs in it- one of which- was Lavender.

After working with Lavender for a while I decided that I would bring Lavender into my sound bathing events, offering people an opportunity to get deeper into relaxation with a warm ‘Lavender Latte’. Lavender is safe, well studied, and well known. It’s easy to identify and prolific in New Zealand. I wanted to offer people the opportunity to feel like herbalism wasn’t as far out of reach as they may have thought.

It was a hit, and for years this was how I ran my events, singing the praises of Lavandula Angustifolia- culinary Lavender. Then I thought to myself- “it needs to be MORE POTENT, I want it to be MEDICINAL!” I started to use some wonderful herbal products made by others, but the herbalist inside me was ready to be the one growing, tincturing and mixing up all the medicine.

So here I am! It really is silly how much joy it brings me to make this medicine for you all. It’s my passion, it brings me pride and it’s easy to wake up and create each day.

I chose Lavender because it is my favourite herb to bring relaxation, peace and regulation to my nervous system and I want you to fall in-love with it too.

In late 2023 I water-fasted with the addition of Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia) and in early 2024 I did a 2 week ‘plant diet’ of only simple foods and reduced stimulation while eating as much lavender as I could. This helped me really get to know what Lavender feels like in my body and to experientially learn what it does to a stressed out single mum and 31yo widow.

See- I lost my Husband to suicide out of the blue in 2022 and this has been my why since then. I want to help people feel less stressed, less overwhelmed, more present, less depressed, more relaxed, have less physical pain and more emotional balance. These symptoms are so manageable with healthy lifestyle, quality supplementation, healthy mindset and good daily routines.

With so many incredible benefits and a delicious taste and smell, Lavender is a wonder plant to bring into your daily routines to bring out the best in you.

Life brings so many opportunities to lose ourselves in stress and reactive behaviours, and so many of us are looking for something to help us become more resilient and calm in the face of distress, trauma and general busyness that this fast paced world can expect of us. We’re expected to be more productive, more robotic, less emotional, more sedentary and less present with the beautiful earth flourishing around us.

You deserve to feel healthy, calm, rested, clear and empowered.

Here is where Lavender comes in- with it's calming, cooling, peaceful energy. Lavender is very popular for getting rid of anxiety and depression as it boosts alpha and theta (relaxing) brain waves. I personally found that working with Lavender daily lead to me being more calm, more content, I was less rushed, less overwhelmed, less exhausted and less urgent-minded. I easily decided that instead of reacting- I had the choice to stay calm and respond with gathered thoughts and feelings. This lead to better outcomes and enhanced problem solving.

THIS is the magic of Lavender!
