soul remedies

By Ayanna Nicole

Soul Remedies is a soft, introspective journey of remembrance. It is a reclaiming of our power, a return to our ancient roots in nature, and an invitation for living intuitively through our spirit.

I eagerly await Ayanna Nicole’s letters because they’re always in alignment and deeply honest. Every word is a mirror. Every reader leaves lighter. I consider ‘soul remedies’ the sage sister to ‘Life Is In Love With Me’.
