My name is Alison Kelly and I live and work in Sonoma. I have been an herbalist for the past 15 years studying and teaching classes in herbal medicine making, nutritional benefits of herbs and herbal teamaking. In 2016 I co-taught a series of essential oils for self care classes for Sonoma Valley Hospital staff, and completed a year long certificate program in Health Navigation at Sonoma State. I have a small herbal products company and currently make and sell a savory herbal seasoning locally in Sonoma, work as a natural foods personal home cook, food artisan and soupmaker. I am also participating in a acupuncture tutorial program at Sonoma Valley Acupuncture and Herb Center and am excited to be learning about Chinese medicine.

She says there are indicators if it is a message from the Universe: is it meaningful, improbable and if it feels like an epiphany. Lately, these little events seem to be happening more and more frequently in my life. I wouldn't describe all the experiences as an epiphany, but I still do pay attention to them. I tend to feel like everything happening in life is meaningful. It does feel a bit more random, yet not random and interesting enough to pay attention to. I try to be observant of my surroundings, there are those days that I will notice a person somewhere for whatever reason like they were in front of me in li...

Sometimes you can feel certain bad vibrations when visiting particularly violent historical places. One may describe a dark feeling or negativity while in the vicinity o...
