Hi everybody! I would like to introduce myself since I am new to the Steemit community. My name is Alicia, I live in the Netherlands and I have Spanish roots. So I often fly back and forth to my beloved olive grove finca, Terra Nova, on the Catalan countryside. I am a multipotentiolite, a highest joy seeker, an olive oil expert and a lightworker. I enjoy (healthy) food. I am highly spiritual and at the same time firmly grounded. I am here to spread love and to serve humanity.

This is my very first blog ever. Three years ago I could only dream of blogging. And look at me now 😊 I can't believe it.
It was three years ago too that I embarked on a very personal, tough, transformational journey. I got sick, I could hardly function due to a Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, panic attacks, extreme tiredness, a sleep disorder and a bunch of other shitty symptoms.
I already was meditating a lot, but when I was at my lowest point (I didn't want to be here anymore), I attended my second ayahuasca ceremony that cured my depression. To this day I couldn't be more thankful.
Now, more than a year later I am following my dreams, doing what my heart tells me to with my mind as helpful servant. And one of my passions is writing!
So if you are interested in spirituality, consciousness, a healthy and balanced lifestyle, plant medicines and other healing methods, I invite you to follow me! I will blog in English and Dutch.
I hope to bring more love, light, inspiration and awareness into the steam community. The world needs more of this.

Welcome to steemit, terranova.earth! Nice to meet you! I really hope you become successful in this platform!
I am glad you overcame your PSTD because I have a friend who currently has that and I want to try to help her to overcome that eventually and sometimes she tends to not be as responsive as before... I worry for her and I want her to be happy. Keep following your dreams and passions, I am also starting to do the same. :)
Feel free to check out my blog posts too incase you find something there that interests you. :)
And you can come join my Discord group where we help new members like you get more exposure on Steemit: https://discord.gg/WmxRnc3
If you do not have a Discord, making one is very easy! If you need help setting it up, I will be glad to do so. Great Intro post! Upvoted and followed!
Hello terranova.earth! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:
1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
5. Have Fun and Enjoy!

Be very welcome to steemit social network. I've been here since February of this year and I'm really enjoying. I participate here actively every day. Here, we can learn a lot by reading other people's posts about content that interest us and we can post our own content, helping people within our areas of expertise, training our writing, making a kind of "therapy" because, writing helps us to reflect on our knowledge and we will be slightly paid for it. I hope you enjoy.
My main tip is: before you begin to post your content, read the posts by teaching staff how to use this network, about how to write good text, how are the coins sbd, steem and steem power, how to advertise your text using the discord by example, votes issues and other things.
Other than that, we are always available. If you have any questions, go ahead.
Good afternoon!!!! Welcome!!
