Welcome to Lightened Heart!
I'm thrilled to share my story with you.
My name is Gina, or lovingly known as the “goo-queen” by family. I am a Colorado native, mother, wife and lover of life, learning and adventure. I have been making lotions and potions for almost 20 years now. I have always been driven by a desire to work with people - whether energetically or physically. This passion led me to my first Bachelors of Science in Integrative Therapeutic Practices. From there, my continued education brought me to herbal school, receiving my herbalism certificate. My journey continued onwards to a second Bachelors of Science degree in nursing from Regis University, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude. As a dedicated RN I have worked in various healthcare settings, always with the intention of making a meaningful difference in the lives of others. My love for learning and healing practices did not stop there. While circumnavigating the globe with my husband, I studied and received my Reiki I and Reiki II certifications in Pokhara, Nepal and Thai massage certification from Wat Po in Bangkok, Thailand.
I am a firm believer in the power of energy and love integrating my herbal background with my western knowledge base from nursing. I aim to provide products that serve all people. All of my products are Reiki Infused, handcrafted and small batch. It is a meditation to make these products and I believe that intention is a huge part of healing. My heart is rooted in the wisdom of Mother Earth. I aim to embody love, honoring the innate beauty in each individual, bringing light and joy with me wherever I or my products go. I approach life with intention, love and a deep reverence for the earth and its gifts. It is my honor to provide you with my products and energy work. Thank you for taking time with me today and I look forward to hearing more about you. Namaste.
P.S. Please reach out with any questions; I am am always happy to answer!
We believe in the transformative power of nature and intention.
Be beautifully you.
