Ella Shannon, Proprietor of Port Douglas Happy Herb Shop talks about some free in-store events.

Every Friday afternoon at the Port Douglas Happy Herb Shop in Macrossan Street, our in-store Naturopath; Carina Harkin, of Carahealth is available to answer your health questions.

Carina, apart from being the mother of seven children, has no less than three degrees in health sciences and a wealth of experience. She is available for mini consults using iridology, tongue and pulse diagnosis.

This is a service to our beloved customers provided at no extra cost, and we invite you to come in for a chat.

Tuesday nights at the Happy Herb Shop is meditation night. We meet at 7-8pm, beginning with a few minutes of gentle stretching, and continuing with about 15 minutes of awareness meditation.

From here we finish with a healing meditation that evokes the Heart Chakra, taking turns to give and receive. There is also the opportunity to write the name of a loved one to be placed in the centre and the meditation finishes by sending loving and healing intentions to them.

I am offering this meditation night as a gift back to the community of Port Douglas, as I feel so blessed to live in this magical place.

Participants are welcome to give a gold coin donation towards Paws and Claws animal shelter but this is totally optional. Hope to see you there.
