Commissioned to artist Natasha Diak, this talisman was inspired by our founder Karla’s own path to healing. Let it be a shield to protect you, a blanket to hug you and an emblem to empower you to move forward.
HOW IT HEALS:
One of the greatest lessons that cancer has taught me is the power of positive intention. While we might not always have the power to completely cure ourselves, we have more control than many of us realize over how we experience pain, hardship and recuperate from trauma or illness.
I wanted to create a piece that could be a talisman of strength and a protective layer of gratitude, strength and hope for not only myself, but women throughout the world who might be in need of it.
The healing powers of this piece come from the intention of its creation, the beacon of hope it can be within your own family and circle and the reiki energy that has been infused into it.
- The Phases of the Moon show time as a great and are a reminder of the cycle of life. With pain comes healing and potential for growth.
- The Hands in the middle and on the side of the design represent your own community and inner circle, as well as the community of women that each own their own healing scarf.
- Circle of Women are the many aspects of you and your soul or all of the strong and inspiring women meet in your lifetimes. You possess your own unique gifts and are on your own soul journey.
- The Snake a celebration of how a snake is able to shed its skin multiple times throughout its life. We too have the ability to live new versions of ourselves. You are not shackled to who you were in the past, no matter who that might have been.
It is my hope the Healing Scarf will allow you to harness your own positive intentions and energy and will act as a link to a community of empowering women, both those in your own life and those with their own Healing Scarf throughout the world.
I hope that you find comfort and love within this piece.
-Karla xo

Although to some it is just a scarf, the message behind it is what make this one of my favourite things to wear as I face each day. It reminds me of strength, regeneration and empowerment, as well as being warm, soft and cosy. It really has become my protective talisman and wrapping up in it makes me feel like I have the power to slay the day! Thank you.

I loved this scarf so much I ended up buying one in another colour. It is so soft and warm… and the pattern is perfect. It is very nice and it can be folded in lots of different ways… I am sure it will be a great accessory when I go travelling.

I was bought this as gift when I was going through chemotherapy and it really helped me to tap into the positive vibes. It meant so much to me when I read more about your shop and the true meaning of this beautiful gift. Thank you.

I have been fascinated with reiki energy for some time now and practicing it has made such a difference on my overall health and wellbeing. Wearing this has helped me to further realign my energy and experience physical and emotional healing. The symbolism on the scarf speaks to my heart, and I feel that it represents a truly spiritual message of empowerment. I believe that strong women empower women and I intend to treat my sister and best friend to one of these beautiful pieces in time for next Christmas.

Good Morning, What a lovely surprise when I opened the door this morning! The scarves are beautiful and all the goodies with them were a lovely bonus!! One scarf is for my 39 year old niece battling stage 4 metastatic breast cancer and the other is for a friend who has had a very difficult time the last several years. I love the smell of your new fragrance!!
Thank you so much for all the extras!
Look forward to trying your new fragrance when it makes its debut!
Have a great day!

My Healing Scarf is a soft, comforting and beautiful accessory that makes me feel warm and happy no matter what mood I’m in. Even my daughters seem to feel the same way as they have been wearing it more than me!

These pictures might look good but they do not do this scarf justice. It is so much prettier in real life, and you can really wrap yourself up in it. It is lightweight and of good quality, and the packaging is really nice if you are buying this as a gift for someone. I can’t wait for an opportunity to show it off now.
Rachel J –
Excellent quality shawl. Nice size and it is not itchy at all. Thank you.

I received a beautiful birthday gift from a close friend who ordered it from your store and I wanted to thank you very much.
I have the shawl here at my desk for when I get cold or need some warmth and comfort while I am working. I can smell the aroma in my room…what a beautiful scent.
It was really sweet of you to include so many other items in the order like the mask and necklace. I am actually going to order a shawl for a friend, now that I know about your organization. I just checked out your website and Well Done!! So great that you and your Son have created this business together and I love the video of you and Zach on his first day of flying. Very inspirational.Good luck to you and Zach and thank you for being a leader worth following. 🙂

Thank you so much! Ive been away from my mother (Shes in Ontario Im in Alberta) since her Cancer diagnosis and I’m flying out next week to see her finally. When your package arrived I knew she was going to feel so recognized and loved because products exist for people like her in mind.

Dear Karla,
I love my healing scarf. I also loved the tea and wish to order the beautiful oudoorish perfume. It is the essence I need to be me and to feel totally confident. I will present it as gifts to favourite people of mine. I will speak to Marla about ordering this perfect scent.
Do take care, Karla. You uplifted me when it was so needed. You are a very special lady.
Blessings!

My niece has metastatic breast cancer, recently they found her regime of medication is not working anymore and it has spread to areas on her liver. She will go back to the previous medication that caused so many nasty side effects. She is a Mom of two girls (13 and 10) always has a fighter warrior attitude and has surpassed her given timeline by 4 months. She has an amazing heart and a smile that lights up the world. I hope this scarf brings her positivity and strength to keep fighting.
Nicole M –
I purchased this scarf for my daughter in-law who is fighting stage 3 cancer and I know your founder, Karla is also battling cancer and this scarf was created as a talisman inspired by her own path to healing, it would be amazing if Karla could write her a personal note to go with the scarf explaining how this Healing Scarf has comforted and empowered her during her fight with cancer.
