I felt like I was the one being reborn and held in my transformation, cradled by my abuelas y abuelos. I realized I could offer my services to my queer radical community here in the Bay Area, supporting their creativity in all its forms. I received the message that the medicine that held my abuelas druing their births can midwife the current waves of gender expansiveness and visionary creation, rooted in cultural wealth. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/1615614833397-LNYISM99F41UM13495GK/DSC_0030+1.JPG my story https://almacarmina.love/home daily 1.0 2025-11-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/d97bfd98-7a17-4a14-84bb-7668ec55aedf/Screen+Shot+2025-03-07+at+8.50.37+PM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/385384d2-0efc-4c51-856f-33f8d155b4d8/485A2795.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/3e327f9a-1f66-4cf6-b8ba-b83d805c475e/000013490022.JPEG https://almacarmina.love/favicon daily 0.75 2021-07-11 https://almacarmina.love/servicesresting daily 0.75 2021-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/1615959966046-HIHBKABKJCDBWV6M7F37/IMG_7650+3.JPG services (resting) - Welcome to your Apapacho The word "apapacho" in Spanish comes from the Nahuatl, “pachoa,” which refers to the practice of tying the hips to support the womb and protect your energetic center, and also to affectionate touch and protection given to a child or loved one. I think of the kind of comforting, loving embrace and strong presence you would get from a seasoned grandparent. I offer an intuitive approach to ritual, opening a space of clarity and calm for you to reconnect deeply with yourself. This ceremony invites you to feel held, tune in, and make way for who you are becoming. ❀Intention setting with oracle cards❀ ❀Limpia de Rosas: Rose blessing❀ ❀Herbal perineal compress❀ ❀Pelvic herbal steam❀ ❀Ritual tea bath and fresh herb sweep❀ ❀Sobada: full body and/or abdominal massage❀ ❀Cerrada con rebozo: closing of the hips❀ ❀Nutrient dense soups❀ ❀Handmade herbal body oils & Agua Florida❀ https://almacarmina.love/green-bottle-scale daily 0.75 2021-10-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/1619202852194-9SRIQO4ZOSEX8PYW9D8K/green+bottle+sliding+scale+method.jpeg green bottle scale https://almacarmina.love/sopita-de-pollo daily 0.75 2021-06-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6048fae3072b0a1e14bb3e53/1624007507851-CUCAG80GIGXS88Q443PZ/sopita.jpg Sopita de Pollo - Bomb ass Sopa Recipe. Ingredients: Cumin Coriander Ghee/Butter (optional) Chicken (meat & feet) Vegan option: your fav mushroom (mine’s Morel) + miso paste Carrots Ginger Cumin Zucchini Potatoes Onion Garlic Broccoli Celery Chayote squash Plantain (optional) Pink or grey salt Pepper If u fancy: Nettle leaves (use gloves!) Burdock root Calendula flowers Fiddlehead fern In-season special ingredients you may come across Garnish: Cilantro Orégano Lime Avocado Toast the cumin and coriander in ghee/butter until it jumps a little. Then wash, slice, and put all the rest of the ingredients except garnish in a big pot, bring to a boil and then simmer for at least 30 minutes. I personally love making this into a sour and salty situation when plating, adding extra lime and salt to taste. Makes a great nourishing and soothing soup for the digestion, skin, joints, and immune system.
