Today we are going to highlight Lavender Essential Oil by Young Living.Young Living works closely with Health Canada in order to have certain products approved as Natural Health Products (NHP). What does this mean? According to this link (https://bit.ly/3g75eX9) through the Natural Health Products Directorate, Health Canada assures that all Canadians have access to a wide range of natural health products that are safe, effective and of high quality.
We assess all natural health products before allowing their sale in Canada. We also check that NHPs are properly manufactured (without contaminants or incorrect ingredients). And we do post-market monitoring to make sure that NHP Regulations are being respected.
Young Living`s Lavender Oil is an NHP and has these features and benefits:
* Promotes feelings of calm and fights occasional nervous tension
* Has balancing properties and calms the mind and body
* Has balancing properties and calms the mind and body
* Helps to support digestive discomfort
* Reduces the symptoms of cough and cold
* Can be soothing to the skin after a day in the sun
* Reduces the appearance of blemishes
* Helps to relieve headaches
* Supports aging skin
* Includes the naturally occurring constituents linalyl acetate, linalool and ocimene
* Helps to relieve joint and muscle pain associated with sprains, strains and rheumatoid arthritis
The sweet, herbaceous, floral aroma of this essential oil is fantastic when diffused in the evening to promote calm before bedtime but can also be added to a carrier oil and applied topically or added to high quality (unscented) Epsom salts for a relaxing bath. Lavender is one of my favorite essential oils from Young Living`s premium starter kit and one that I use every day from my skin care regime to relaxation. I would love to send you a sample to try, just send me a message and it will be on its way!
Happy Tuesday everyone!

Is it just me or is time flying?
How is it even possible that it is half-way through May already?
As we hurtle towards the dog days of summer another important date is also on the horizon! Father's day is a great time to show Dad how much we appreciate him. Whether it is a fancy meal, a backyard BBQ, a hike to a favorite spot or just relaxing in the backyard we love to show our Dad's the love. Instead of a neck tie or a new fishing lure this year, why not give dad something that will make him smell and feel great?
When we stopped using synthetic fragrances in our home and personal care products, one of the things we missed at first was cologne for Jason. Just a little bit of digging around on the internet proved helpful and we started to craft our own cologne and beard oil blends! I will be the first to admit that a few of them became bath salt blends because he didn't care for them....but I couldn't let all those amazing oils go to waste (just ask me about some of the things they do and you will understand why!). But we have found a few that we both really enjoyed and above is one of them. I also love that we were able to repurpose some of our empty EO bottles and we added a roller ball top that is also reusable.
If you are looking to create a great scent for Father's day (or are local and need a bottle....or five) shoot me a message and we can chat.
We also found some recipes we really enjoyed in Melissa Poepping's PURE MALE COLOGNE collections book (available through Life Science Publishing)
Yours in wellness, purpose and abundance,
Tamara Jansen
