Experience Wholeness
Gaia’s Embrace, LLC is a company that offers herbal remedies with purely natural ingredients being top priority. In a world full of toxic products and unnecessary additives, the founder wanted to offer products that were simply whole. Most herbal products have a long shelf life. There is no need for preservatives, and synthetic ingredients do not pass through any organic system the way they are intended to replicate. At Gaia’s Embrace, there is no replication. Only the real thing. All life around us already has everything we need to be supported. Crafting with botanicals and oils in their purest, most whole form results in products that work, last, and have a feel of luxury.
Currently, Gaia’s Embrace has one line of salves. However, there are plans to add a tea line and an oil line, at the very least. The salves are known to soak well into the skin without leaving an oily residue. Every batch is handled with attentive intention, and each time you reach into a jar, you know you’re working with unmatched purity. All products have been tended by healing hands and bear the mark of Gaia’s Embrace.
Dedication to Purity
Gaia’s Embrace is entirely dedicated to clean products. Not only are the ingredients put through the founder’s scrutiny, but so are the tools used in crafting, the products used to clean said tools, and the jars that the end product is placed in. Everything is selected for being in it’s most natural form. Salves are crafted strictly with botanicals (herbs and whole oils) and beeswax. Oils are cold-pressed and untreated, herbs are whole and naturally dried, essential oils are meticulously made from botanicals screened for contaminants, and beeswax is also untreated and comes from a source free of contaminants. ALL ingredients are wild harvested or organically grown without insecticides, herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, or synthetic fertilizers. They are non-GMO and are not treated with any synthetics or radiation when harvested. Glass or metal packaging for raw ingredients is selected whenever possible. You can rest assured that each and every ingredient came pure.
About the founder
My name is Makayla. I am the founder and sole owner and operator of Gaia’s Embrace, LLC. I grew up in a beautiful high desert, and my road to herbalism began when I took a botany class in high school, where I discovered my love of plants. I played with herbal remedies here and there at home, but I really began to step into it when I herniated a disc in my back. I was desperate for relief. That was when I made my first salves. From that experience my most versatile blend, The Wanderer’s Balm, was born.
I have always carried deep reverence for what we call the natural world. To me, it was always sacred and worthy of respect and stewardship grounded in integrity. I believe that everything holds consciousness, a spirit. I see every plant I work with as an ally in the healing arts, and when I craft my blends, I invoke specific properties of the plant that I want to contribute to the blend. It’s not just about tossing herbs and oils in a pot and letting it steep. It’s about entering right relationship with those spirits and working together to cultivate something that brings deep, layered healing.
When I decided I would bring remedies to the public, I knew I wouldn’t compromise for anything. I don’t know about you, but I get tired of reading every detail on every label to find out what I deem to be clean, or at least as free from synthetics and toxins as possible. I wanted to create a space where people could feel at ease knowing that no matter what they choose, they can trust that it’s free from toxins and synthetics. My standards are very high, and if it’s not good enough for me, it’s not good enough for my customers. I sincerely hope that everyone who ends up with a remedy crafted by my hands can feel the energy poured into each one, and finds the relief that they were looking for.
