3/4 cup sea salt

3/4 cup baking soda

3/4 cup coarsely to finely powdered oatmeal

1/2 cup elder flower

1/2 cup chamomile flower

​

Pour all ingredients into a clean, dry bowl and stir to combine. Store in a labeled glass in a cool, dry place. Use 1 or 2 handfuls of the blend per bath. Place in a muslin bag and hang over the faucet while the water is running. 

1 tsp raw honey

1 1/2 tsp red wine

1/2 tsp ground chia seed

​

Combine the honey and wine in a small bowl. Stir in the ground chia seeds and mix well to combine. Adjust the consistency by adding a bit more honey or chia seeds if needed. 

Spread a thin layer on the skin, avoiding the eyes, and leave in place for at least 15 minutes. 

Rinse face with warm water. Gently pat skin lightly with a towel to dry.

Follow with moisturizer.

1/2 cup (4 fl oz) yogurt

1/2 cup (2 fl oz) raw honey

2 tbsp. Jojoba oil

​

Combine ingredients in a small bowl and stir thoroughly.

Apply to hair and cover with a shower cap.

Let this moisturizing mask penetrate hair for at least 20 minutes.

Rinse with warm water, then shampoo hair as usual.

1 gallon of water

2 tbsp lavender flower bud

2 tbsp chamomile flower

2 tbsp rose petals

​

Bring water to a boil in a large pot or tea kettle. Place a large, wide bowl on a table with a comfortable seat. Add herbs to bowl and then cover with the hot water. Lean face over the bowl at a comfortable distance so as not to burn your skin. Drape a towel over your head to form a tent over the bowl, capturing the steam.

Enjoy the steam 5-15 minutes.
