Inspired by one of my favourite musical compositions by Nils Frahm, 'My Friend the Forest'.
 
There are two types of Jade - Nephrite and Jadeite. In ancient China, Jade was called the royal gem and was believed to contain life force or Chi. To this day, Jade is still considered to be a symbol of longevity and good health.
 
This gem has a lot going for it, both historically and culturally, but the connection I feel with this particular piece leads me home to the trees. This is a deeply nourishing piece. As the trees nourish each other through their underground, webbed community, this pendant evokes our quintessential role in the community. 
 
We have a purpose here.
 
Green resonates with the Heart and the colour of the leaves on the trees. Imagine grounding into the earth, beautiful roots growing deep and strong from your feet. Connecting with and through your Heart, down to your Root.
 
We all know how important it is to spend time in nature. Science has proven the benefits to overall health when adequate time has been spent among trees and wildlife. There is a calm and balance that happens when we breathe in the fresh air, fully expand our lungs and take it all in. Our mind relaxes, our bodies move and energy flows. 
 
May we always be reminded of our innate connection with nature, and to seek truth, wisdom and equilibrium among our friends, the trees.
