In 1992, the first product I formulated was our Lavender
Mist. I was flying to England to train with the late
Micheline Arcier, and I was tired of getting sick on
airplanes. I had no idea this product was going to shift
people out of trauma from an auto accident, assist mothers
through labor, calm nerves when performing, aid in a good
night's sleep, and assist with the dying process. This is way
beyond just misting to "feel good". Lavender Mist is in The
Good Medicine Tin®
A few years later came the Lavender-Rose Mist , when
I wanted a delicate lovely mist for my face to go with the
Rejuvenation Face Gel. This has gone on to nurture the heart
in all of us, soothe frazzled nerves, aid in the grieving
process, and celebrate the joy of the Lavender and Rose aroma.
Next came our Lavender-Peppermint Mist for two
clients. One was suffering from the nausea from chemotherapy,
and the other from morning sickness. This became our
energizing menthol lift, helping with headaches, digestion,
breathing and fatigue. It is in our Cold- Flu Pak.
And finally, our Rejuvenation Mist came about
because our #1 seller every year is our Rejuvenation Face Gel,
and many have requested to please make this formula in another
form. Frankincense, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Geranium and Rose
are great for the skin, as they calm the spirit.
These four mists serve us as we move through our daily life
with different needs....sometimes it seems we need them
hourly. Mist away and enjoy the aromas.

| What's On YOUR Mind? |
|
|
The Art of Misting (or Hydrosoling): Make big
circular clouds around head, face and neck.Closely mist back
of neck just below the hair line. Close your eyes and breath
deeply. This is one of the best "balancing" good medicine
things I know.
Reasons to Mist: (1) cleanse the heavy air around
you, (2) clear emotional dross, (3) lift your spirits, (4)
cleanse and tone your face, (5) to keep you healthy on a plane
or in a crowd, (6) wake up while driving or dosing, (7)
Lavender Mist your pillow for good sleeps, (8) help you get
through any challenging situation, (9) mist another who needs
it, (10) just for the joy of misting.
I would love to hear your reasons to mist! Thank you.

Mists and Hydrosols |
|
|

When searching for the benefits of aromatherapy, essential
oils help us in their pure state for inhalation and diffusion,
in a base ingredient for safe application to the skin, and in
a "mist" for cleansing the air and skin.
There are an increasing number of aromatherapy "sprays" on
the market. If the idea is health, it is paramount to stay
with mists made with pure essential oils or pure hydrosols.
Unfortunately most sprays we see are actually not healthy at
all....and we are breathing this into our brain and lungs!
Mists and hydrodols are two different things. Both good in
their own right. Our mists are made with pure
therapeutic-grade essential oils, purified water, aloe and
vegetable glycerin. The proprietary formula captures the
medicinal properties that are only available in the highly
concentrated essential oils of a plant.
Hydrosols (also called Hydrolats, Aquaromes, and Floral
Water) are a by product of the distillation process. Essential
oils are held in oil sacs in some part of a plant or tree.
These parts are put in a distillation unit and the steam
ruptures the sac, carrying the oil as a vapor through the
unit. When the vapor reaches the cooling unit, the essential
oil separates from water. Remember essential oils do not mix
with water. Thus the "floral water" holds properties of the
plant that are water soluble and not as strong as the
essential oil.
Hydrosols are used in many countries as medicinal remedies
to sip, and in skin care. Many traditions add floral waters to
desserts and sweets. Rose water is very popular in Middle
Eastern cooking and can be found in Middle Eastern groceries.
In Aromatherapy, mists and hydrosols are generally used to
calm our emotions, lift our spirit, cleanse the air, and
soothe the skin.
Our four mists developed through my practice, are available
as this month's Mist Sampler special. These contain
pure essential oils. For the first time, we are offering a
limited quantity of a very special Frankincense
Hydrosol. See "Spotlight" for more in these offers.
