Selva Cold Process Soap

Soothe your skin and spirit with sacred Earth magic. 

You asked, and I heard you! Now introducing my Selva Cold Process Soap — the latest in our line of deep jungle magic. In August 2023, I turned 50, and to celebrate, I took my kids to the Yucatan Peninsula to experience the beauty and magic of Riviera Maya. I had no idea what magic was in store for me there, but it was so much more than I imagined.

One of the most memorable parts of the trip was our experience at the place where we stayed in the Yucatan jungle. The shaman there helped connect me more deeply with my vision for my online program this year called Apothecary. (If you haven’t already, you can still register here — the water is warm, and we’d love to have you!)

The mystical depths of the Yucatan Jungle

In Mexico, the jungle belongs to the Maya in the north, and many of the residents are Mayan by ancestry. They still speak the original language and honor the original traditions and old ways. Fruits, flowers, and resins of trees unite in a winding of the branches of time and truth. It helps you deepen your wisdom and trust in the great and sacred unfolding of lineage magic.

The place we stayed during my trip made a special scent blend for me because it was my birthday. It was intoxicating, but I did not know the notes. I brought home the tiny amount left of this blend, and we did our best to recreate it for YOU. And so, Selva, which means ‘jungle’ in Spanish, was born!

We infused this nourishing soap with my Selva Perfume, the replica of the fragrance made for me. Every time you step into the shower, this luxurious soap will surround you with the same ancestral magic I experienced in the jungle’s depths.

This soap contains notes of:

• Lime
• Bergamot
• Mandarin
• Pink grapefruit
• Helichrysum
• Tuberose
• Ylang ylang

We handcrafted this offering here at Sage Goddess with a nourishing goat’s milk base to keep things silky and smooth. We use the cold process method to keep all essential oils in perfect condition — it’s worth the extra time and effort!

Incorporate this soap into your self-care rituals to call in powerful Earth magic.

About Sage Goddess Apothecary

This soap is available to everyone, but I highly recommend it to members of my Apothecary program.

If you are in the Apothecary program, I encourage you to get my other Selva offerings for your sacred space. I will be anointing with my Selva blend and lighting my Selva Intention Candle at our upcoming classes this year. I’ll do my best to keep them in stock, but as with all things SG, the ingredients are limited. Your Selva soap salt awaits you today.

Apothecary invites you into a realm of deep magic, reconnecting with the Earth through plant wisdom, gemstones, and goddess archetypes. In March, we’re working with Isis and Osiris. These archetypes of divine union, death, and rebirth encourage us to remember who we are through undying and eternal love. Learn more and sign up here.

The deeper magic of my Selva Cold Process Soap

If you want to feel what I felt, smell what I smelled, and indulge in what felt like secret alchemy for me, Selva is for you.

The magic of this soap lies in its ingredients.

• Lime carries a scent that is uplifting and invigorating. It boosts mental clarity, alertness, and concentration. It also increases positivity and focus and reduces feelings of self-doubt, fear, or dread.
• Bergamot centers scattered energy, improves energy, and brings restful sleep. It promotes spiritual and physical well-being, confidence, courage, and achievement.
• Mandarin is calming, promoting peace and happiness. It brings good fortune, enhances creativity, and helps relieve stress and tension.
• Pink grapefruit is incredibly revitalizing and uplifting. It increases mental clarity, emotional openness, and concentration and promotes a feeling of love and self-acceptance.
• Helichrysum is sometimes called the ‘everlasting plant’ or ‘curry plant’ because of its strong scent. It opens the heart, connects the body and spirit, and encourages deeper spirituality.
• Tuberose is an aphrodisiac that attracts love. It’s also calming, bringing ease to the body and providing a deep sense of peace.
• Ylang ylang helps the heart open, which facilitates healing deep emotional trauma. It cultivates inner joy and trust, bringing balance to the mind, body, and spirit.

How to work with my Selva Cold Process Soap

Incorporate this Selva Cold Process Soap into your bathing rituals to drop in deeper, feel more widely or expansively into your understanding, and honor your ancestors in a new and unbridled way. However you choose to work with this offering, may it serve you well.
