Slipping Into Lavender Waters

There are few feelings as good
as a fiery hot steam bath with lavender and eucalyptus.
That little gasp that hits the lungs with the steam as you sink into the water that’s where heaven lies.
The kind of bath that fogs the mirrors and resets the soul
That’s where inspiration lives.
Best ideas come in the bath. When we let go. And breathe in.
After all - we are 60% water.
On a planet that is 70% water.
Why are we so desperate to parch ourselves?

Lavender is the great comforter. The consistent companion that you know from fabric softener to perfume to the tough little sprout poking out of the pallet in a neighbor’s yard, clinging to life. The purple snuggle smell that means things are sweet and safe to sink into.

Eucalyptus is the opposite: nature’s refresh button. From clearing your sinuses to filling a bouquet with its distinctive piney green to that little jar of cold cream in the cabinet, eucalyptus is the fresh wake up call that brings the clean.

A moment to release and reset.
