REDISCOVERING MY SACRAL PRESENCE
AN EXTERNAL APPEARANCE OF SUCCESS
There was a period in my life when everything followed a strict and predictable rhythm.
Go to work.
Come home.
Eat.
Rest.
Repeat.
From the outside, life looked productive and responsible. I was moving forward, checking boxes, doing what I believed I was supposed to do. Yet internally, something felt off. The creative part of me had slowly been set aside in favor of structure and obligation.
The turning point came when I stepped away from that routine and moved to England.
Although I still had a job, it was no longer my sole identity or focus. For the first time in years, work existed alongside life rather than defining it. I met new friends, enrolled in school, and allowed myself to explore unfamiliar places and experiences. Weekends became opportunities for discovery instead of recovery from exhaustion. I traveled, learned, and experienced daily life with curiosity.
During this time, I also transitioned professionally from the automotive industry into personal care and cosmetics within the FMCG world. That change sparked creative flames that had long been buried. Suddenly, I was surrounded by formulation, sensory experience, texture, scent, and the intersection between science and self-care.
The power of FLOW
Alongside this professional shift, I began studying herbs and flower essences, learning how plants support emotional balance and subtle energetic healing. The learning felt intuitive, as though I was remembering something imprinted in my being rather than discovering it for the first time.
Water became an unexpected but powerful part of my healing during that time. I often took the train into London simply to walk along the Thames, watching the steady movement of the river. On weekends, I visited coastal towns where the ocean air felt deeply cleansing. Being near water softened something within me. It helped release emotional heaviness and restored a sense of flow I had not realized I was missing.
Looking back, that period was deeply healing for my sacral energy. Creativity returned. Emotional awareness deepened. Life felt less controlled and more experienced.
What Could Not Be IGNORED
When I eventually moved back stateside, structure quickly returned. Responsibilities resumed, and familiar patterns reappeared. But something had changed within me. I realized I could not isolate that creative part of myself again. Trying to return fully to rigidity created an internal disconnect that was impossible to ignore. I felt called to continue connecting with what had stirred within me.
That calling led me to pursue aromatherapy certification and yoga teacher training. Both practices reintroduced movement, breath, sensory awareness, and emotional presence into my daily life. Creativity no longer needed to exist separately from responsibility. Instead, it became something that lived within it.
From this flow, Thara Sacra was born.
Creating formulations, rituals, and educational experiences allows me to continually nourish the creative energy that first awakened during those years of exploration and healing. It became a bridge between structure and flow, grounding creativity into everyday life while honoring both practicality and intuition.
As we move into the energy of spring, a season of emergence and renewal, I invite you to reflect on where flow may be asking to return in your own life. Allow yourself to move differently emotionally, creatively, and energetically.
