Sacred Peace x Healing from Heartbreak

Heartbreak is one of life’s most profound teachers. It touches the deepest parts of our souls, pulling us into a season of sorrow that can feel unending. But even in the most difficult moments, there is a profound truth we must hold onto: God can heal a heart He didn’t break. Just as seasons shift, so too does the pain of heartbreak, and in time, new life blossoms from the ashes of our grief.

I honor the healing power of faith, nature, and the wisdom of ancient traditions. Heartbreak touches all of us. It sneaks in quietly or crashes through our hearts like a storm leaving us feeling lost, untethered, and vulnerable. For women of color, heartbreak can be layered. Wrapped in the weight of generational trauma, systemic oppression, and the burdens of always being strong. But what if we allowed ourselves to heal. Truly heal. by leaning into our faith, embracing mother earth’s wisdom, and centering ourselves through intentional, spiritual, ancient self care.

I believe healing is not just about mending the broken heart. It’s about finding peace. The herbs, oils and spiritual practices I create are designed to help you reconnect with yourself, reclaim your emotional space, and find peace.

The Sacred Ritual between Faith and Healing

I‘m in a season of heartbreak. My heart is heavy and faith has to be my anchor because I am untethered. But no matter your spiritual background, faith is for us all. Faith asks us to surrender to something greater than ourselves. To trust that even in the darkest moments, there is light to be found. Faith doesn’t ignore pain but it allows pain to teach us. It gives us an opportunity to lean into prayer, meditation, stillness, and to create rituals that bring us peace. It reminds us our souls are resilient. Every time we breathe deeply and connect with spirit, we begin to loosen the grip of sorrow and create space for healing. 

Mother Earth: a gift from YHWH

Just as God created the earth and all its wonders, He has provided us with the tools we need to heal—right within nature. Mother Earth is abundant with healing gifts. For centuries, women have turned to herbs to soothe emotional wounds and mend broken hearts. Plants like rose, lavender, and ashwagandha have deep roots in ancient traditions for supporting emotional balance and inner peace.

Here at The Garden Collective, we’ve created products that align with the natural rhythms of your healing journey. These herbal remedies are not only gentle on the body but also offer spiritual support through their connection to the earth:

These aren’t just products—they are part of a sacred healing process that brings us back to the earth and back to the One who created it.

The Power of Prayer and Mindfulness

Healing a broken heart requires us to be still in the presence of God. It’s tempting to run from the pain, to fill our days with distractions, but true healing comes when we slow down and turn toward the discomfort, trusting that God is with us in it.

Begin each day with prayer and meditation. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and open your heart to God. Let your prayer be simple: “Lord, heal the parts of me I can’t see. Guide me through this season of heartbreak.” Sit in silence, allowing yourself to feel His presence. Trust that He is working in your heart, even when you can’t feel it.

Mindfulness practices, like heart-opening yoga, can also help you release stored emotions and surrender them to God. As you move through gentle poses like Child’s Pose or Cobra, invite God’s healing energy into your body. Each stretch, each breath, is an opportunity to let go of the hurt and make space for His love.

5 Heart-Centered Steps to Begin Healing

Healing from heartbreak is a journey, not a destination. It requires patience, trust, and the willingness to let go. Here are five sacred steps you can take to begin the healing process:

1. Create a Morning Prayer Ritual: Start each day by lighting a candle, sitting in stillness, and offering your heartbreak to God in prayer. You can use our Divine Comfort Body Oil as part of this ritual—massaging it into your hands as you pray for healing and strength.
2. Nourish Your Spirit with Herbal Remedies: Throughout the day, incorporate healing herbs into your routine. Start with the Sacred Strength Tincture in the morning to ease anxiety, and end your day with Peaceful Heart Tea to invite restful sleep and comfort.
3. Journal Your Prayers: Writing can be a form of prayer. Each night, before bed, write a letter to God. Pour out your heart, your fears, and your desires for healing. This practice not only brings clarity but also deepens your relationship with God.
4. Find Solace in Nature: Nature is God’s sacred sanctuary. Take a walk in the park, sit by a tree, or simply watch the clouds. Allow the beauty of God’s creation to remind you that just as nature cycles through seasons, so too will your heart. Spring always follows winter.
5. Surrender Through Breathwork: Practice deep breathing throughout the day, especially when feelings of sadness or anxiety rise. With each inhale, say a prayer: “Lord, fill me with Your peace.” With each exhale: “I release this pain into Your hands.” This simple act can create profound shifts in how you carry your emotions.

Healing is your Birthright

Your healing is not a destination but a sacred unfolding. As you move through this season of heartbreak, remember that you are never alone—YHWH is with you, holding your hand every step of the way.

Allow the herbs, the prayers, and the sacred self-care rituals to be your daily reminders that even in the hardest moments, you are deeply loved, and your heart is in the hands of the One who will never let it go.
