Weekly Wellness Tip















Taking care of our skin in dry winter weather can be challenging. Try making your own after shower body treatment in a glass bottle with a spray nozzle (pick one up at Whole Foods or The Container Store). Your skin already has oils on it, so it knows what to do with an oil-based product. I've included a couple of favorite recipes below. Spray the mixture on at the end of your shower, rub it around on your skin, then towel off.

Relaxing Mixture
2 ounces of Jojoba Oil
24 drops of Peace and Calming Essential Oil Blend

Winter Healing Mixture
2 ounces of Jojoba Oil (or 1 oz. jojoba oil and 1 oz. grape seed oil)
4 drops Orange Essential Oil
4 drops Lemon Essential Oil
4 drops Frankincense Essential Oil
4 drops Geranium Essential Oil
12 drops Lavender Essential Oil
