La Méduse - Catherine is relearning how to work with glass!!!
Catherine, owner and artist at La Méduse, suffered a serious stroke, 3 weeks after giving birth to her daughter Agathe. A long rehabilitation followed... which is still ongoing!
She relearned to speak, to walk, to run and to write with her left hand. She works on her balance every day. And she has to relearn her craft from scratch!
As she says so well, working with glass takes 2 "good hands", but that is just one more challenge. She has therefore returned to blown glass and is relearning her craft for the second time.
Her collection of handmade glass beads / hearts (with one and a half hands!!!!) allows us to raise funds for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. A donation of $10/piece is made to this Foundation.
What doesn't kill us makes us stronger! It encourages us to keep moving forward at La Méduse ❤️

To learn more about the chakras
RED: The root chakra is located at the base of the spine, at the coccyx. It is linked to our basic physical needs, such as food and shelter. Red represents stability, security, and connection to the element of Earth. It also refers to the notion of danger. It gives us the necessary impulse to flee danger and the courage needed to face it.
ORANGE: The sacral chakra is located in the lower abdomen, a few centimeters below the navel. The color orange is associated with creativity, passion, and sexuality. This chakra, intimately linked to our reproductive organs, is also linked to our emotions, our desire, and our ability to feel pleasure. It also refers to the ability to communicate and self-confidence.
YELLOW: The solar plexus chakra is located in the stomach area. This color concerns individual identity, self-assertion, and, by extension, self-confidence. This chakra is linked to our ability to make decisions, assert our opinions, and embrace our personality. The color yellow also refers to personal and professional success.
GREEN: The heart chakra is located in the center of the chest. Since it is located halfway between the three lower chakras and the three upper chakras, it plays a moderating role, allowing us to achieve balance. It speaks to us of unconditional love, compassion, and harmony. It invites us to forge sincere relationships, with ourselves and with others.
BLUE: The throat chakra is considered the center of communication, self-expression, but also listening. The color blue calls for greater clarity of mind and authenticity. It is therefore linked to the ability to express one's true nature and to clearly communicate one's needs. It also offers the listening and openness necessary for communication.
INDIGO The third eye chakra is located in the center of the forehead, between the two eyes and the brow bone. It is considered the center of intuition, lucidity, and mindfulness. The color indigo is also associated with the ability to see beyond what is shown to us, allowing us to access deeper visions and knowledge.
VIOLET: The crown chakra, located at the top of the head, is the ultimate and final energy center of the body. Associated with the color purple, it symbolizes spirituality and universal connection. It also allows us to achieve spiritual openness, which brings fulfillment, serenity, and inner peace.
