Taking a Pause from Everything
For the past four years I have been actively using yoga, meditation, and visualization to help manage high levels of stress in my life. What I found when I practiced visualization is that there is always a smell that I connect with places that bring me joy. According to the Harvard Gazette, olfactory signals reach our limbic system very quickly. Meaning, that smells quickly bring up memories and emotions for us. It's with that research in mind and living the past two years in a global pandemic, that I wanted to create bath products that would bring smells and memories to the forefront while creating a space for people to find some peace and quiet space. As a busy mom of five kids who works full time, has animals, and maintains a garden, I struggle with finding quiet time and also with calming my brain to meditate.
I initially started making hand cream for myself because I was interested in using products made with my own plants. I also own a garden consulting business and sell my herbal cooking salts to show people just how easy it is to make delicious, healthy products from their own garden. Every cooking salt you order (except for vanilla) uses herbs that I have grown- From my garden to your home.
And ultimately, I believe that everyone deserves time for self-care and self-love. I hope to leave this world a better place than I found it, and I hope that these products bring you joy.
