This week I was reflecting alot on my own personality and how being a highly sensitive person has been, and is, an ever evolving learning journey for me. It has been filled with challenges and hurdles but also so full of beauty and emotion and love. I will share how slow living helps me to accept and also celebrate who I am and makes life magical for me in my own way.
I hope this video may bring some comfort to anyone else who feels they also relate to this or may find the world overwhelming at times. I hope to also be able to connect with anyone who feels the same way.
Love,
Lika
PLEASE NOTE! ⬇
I wanted to mention, I realised after I had made the video that it was actually a different flower I picked and not violets ...I think I was a little tired that day, I was sure it was Violets and got excited...
The flowers I picked aren't dangerous, however I think I won't consume this particular batch of syrup just in case. The actual Violet syrup recipe below is still correct if you actually have proper Violets. I just wanted to make sure I mentioned it though as I feel its important, and to share that with you. I made a slight mistake, but hopefully I will try to be more careful next time.
Thank you dear friends for all your understanding and support

~Violet Syrup Recipe:
1 cup fresh violets, washed and clean
1 cup water
1 cup sugar (sugar should typically be the same amount as the amount of water, this helps the syrup to keep well without spoling)
bit of lemon juice
1.Add water and sugar to a pan and heat slowly until all the sugar has dissolved.
2.Add in the violets and simmer for around 20mins.
3.Let the mixture cool slightly, then pour and strain the liquid into a container.
4.Very slowly add a drop of lemon juice at a time until you are happy with the colour you get. The shade you get depends alot on the colour your flowers were in the first place.
5.Pour into your desired container you wish to keep the syrup in and keep in the fridge. It should last a good few months. Enjoy!
