Goddess Provisions (August Unicorn Magic Review) Subscription Box

Happy Monday! Today, I'm reviewing a subscription box called, Goddess Provisions. I discovered them in December and have been receiving their emails ever since. This is my first box and I'm super excited to show it to you. 

Their August box is called, "Unicorn Magic" and after opening it, I was really pleased. It costs $33 a month. They offer you the option of purchasing as a one time "gift," so that it doesn't automatically renew. If you provide your email address, you'll get updates on the box of the month as well as their special edition boxes that you can then sign up to receive. 

On their website, it's says there are typically 4-6 full sized items. I received 8 items (totaling $90 according to their listed value). The items vary from aromatherapy, beauty products, teas, crystals, etc. A definite pro is that everything is vegan and cruelty free!

1. Soul Sunday Unicorn Aromatherapy Roller $18 Value

This roller has a blend of lavender and peppermint essential oils. It is vegan, hand-blended and what I really like, is that the roller ball is silver and feels nice when you apply it onto your pulse points. 

2. Soul Candy Chakra Diffuser Stone $5 Value

There are seven different chakras, therefore I could have received any of them in my box. The universe happened to give me the third eye chakra stone which is definitely fitting.  

So what is neat about this product is that you can add a couple drops of essential oil on the white surrounding portion of the stone and then place a crystal in the center. You then can place the diffuser stone on your body and the little disc will keep your crystal in place. 

3. Awaken Essential Oils Rainbow Energy Inhaler $12 Value

I have a natural peppermint inhaler that I purchased at my local health food store, but I'm absolutely obsessed with this one. It smells amazing. There is a blend of rose, orange, lemon, lavender, green mandarin and blue chamomile. I'm definitely putting this in my purse!

4. Unicorn Makeup Brush $11 Value

Who doesn't want makeup a brush that reminds you of a Unicorn?? This fan shaped brush can be used to apply highlighter and get that glowing unicorn look! The quality of this brush didn't blow me away, but I was able to apply highlighter pretty well. 

5. Sweetapolita Twinkle Sprinkles $9 Value

This made me smile. How cute! Vegan sprinkles with edible gold stars. You're probably supposed to be putting these on some sugar cookies or a treat, but I prefer to just sneak a handful every now and then. Shhhh! 

6. Heart + Hands Self-Care Sticker $4 Value

I'm always happy to get a sticker...especially this one! I love the intention of it and want to obtain a poster or jumbo sticker that looks like this. I found the creator of this sticker on Etsy and her shop is adorable. Click here, to check her store out! 

7. Let's Put A Bird On It Unicorn Dust Highlighter $12 Value

So, we started off with a makeup brush to apply highlighter and now we have unicorn highlighter to try out! This highlighter is organic and is made with flower infused oils and vitamin e. This is a new favorite because of its creamy texture. It starts out subtle, but you can apply more to achieve that glowy goddess look! 

8. Crystal Rose Amethyst Orgone Wand $18 Value 

This wand is filled with rose quartz, amethyst and crystal quartz. You can use it for reiki, your altar, etc. It's also a loving tool to be used to massage your feet or back. I keep staring at this because of how pretty it is. When holding the wand in my hand, I can feel the good juju. Rose Quartz is one of my favorite crystals to have because it's known for being the stone of love and having healing properties for the heart chakra. 

The Goddess Provisions box far exceeded my expectations. I am so in love with all my new goodies.

Manifestation Meditation - Blessing Ball of Light

Starting your day right with intention!

A few years ago, I partook in a program called Love or Above by Christie Marie Sheldon. She had a set of guided meditations with a companion workbook. It was through her that I discovered something called The Blessing Ball of Light. It was quite transformational for me!

This is a five to ten minute meditation you can do each morning as you wake up to help set the intent for what you want for the current day. Manifestation is such a powerful tool!

Manifestation Meditation:

Close your eyes and connect to the "light"

(Light refers to your highest levels of love and joy. By connecting to the light, we are bringing our consciousness to it).

Take a deep breath and feel the light (I like to visualize myself connecting high up to the sky). Let the light fill your body and all of your cells. Starting at your head, all the way down to your feet.

If you find you can't visualize this or feel it, the intent will be enough. Set the intent that love and light are filling up your heart space.

Once you've connected and can feel the loving energy, you're ready to imagine your ball of light.

Imagine a ball of light

Label it "My day"

To really feel this ball of light, bring your hands together. You'll soon feel this energy form.

Put what you want for your day into the ball (Setting your intent)

Examples:

• Gratitude
• Compliments
• Focus for a big test
• The phone ringing off the hook, equaling lots of sales
• Extra energy to get you through the day
• Blessing your family with love and happiness
• Good vibes for the environments you'll find yourself in
• Completion of a goal
• Meeting to go smoothly
• To attract a certain kind of person into your life

As you are imagining, you're creating!

When your ball feels full, sit with it for a moment and bless the energy with pure love and light. If you're sending love to a friend or family member, you can include their name. Repeat this until you feel full. I usually do it for about a minute.

Once you've done that, you're ready to bring the ball of light into your heart. The intention itself will be strong enough, but if you would like you can physically bring your hands to your heart.

Finally, inhale deeply through your nose and exhale slowly through your mouth.

Open your eyes and begin your day!

I was surprised to find that within a few days of practicing this, I became more joyful about my day and the things I manifested were coming true! 

Let me know your thoughts. If you have any questions, I'd love to answer them!
