SAGE (Salvia officinalis) essential oil is an oil I come back to again and again.

It’s wonderful for easing stiffness and aching in muscles and joints as it helps reduce inflammation (it’s in our foot balm and gardener’s balm).

On the skin, it helps calm itching and irritation, heal small cuts or burns, and is especially helpful if your skin tends to break out.

Aromatically, sage brings clarity. It helps shake off fatigue, clears mental fog, and supports focus and memory when your mind feels scattered or tired.

I LOVE its scent. However, not all sage essential oils smell alike or have exactly the same properties. When selecting sage essential oil, know that there are other SAGE essential oils out there:

Clary Sage — Salvia sclarea
Balancing (including hormones), calming, and emotionally supportive.

Spanish Sage — Salvia lavandulifolia
Gentle, clear, supportive of memory and breath.

White Sage — Salvia apiana
Very strong, traditionally used for energetic cleansing. Use with extreme caution around children and pets. This one is a powerhouse!

If you love gardening or the outdoors in general, there are actually over 900 species of sage in the world… in California alone, there are 18 or 19 species of native sage!

I’m starting to love my toes without polish!… But it took a while to grow out my damaged nails.

I believe that when you take care of your feet NATURALLY, which means gentle, not harsh, exfoliation (which always seems to encourage more calluses to grow back anyway), moisturizing and nourishing feet & nails with our foot balm, delicately pushing back cuticles, your feet look pretty. Your nails look healthy and shiny.

I do love a vibrant polish on occasion, but, with every natural step I take, I rarely go back to my old ways.

I appreciate my silver hair (no more toxic dyes on my scalp), I no longer feel compelled to wear makeup every day, and all this gives me more time to take care of myself in a meaningful way that honors my skin and body rather than tries to « fix it ».

What about you? Are you holding on to beauty habits that are not good for you? Have you changed anything?

Let me know if you have a minute. I honestly care!

NOW is the perfect time to take care of your feet.
Why?

In the winter, wearing socks after exfoliating and nourishing your feet with a natural balm helps it absorb deeply and keep moisture in.

Skin softens, calluses form less, and real repair happens. It’s also the ideal season to give polish a break and let nails strengthen naturally.

Our Foot Care Set was created for exactly this: gentle, botanical, deeply restorative care.

Simple, consistent foot care means healthier, softer, and prettier feet and nails—on and off the mat 😉.

In a world that often confuses force with power, gentleness can be quietly radical.

In how we treat one another.
In how we move through stress and uncertainty.
In how we honor what is living and sensitive.

Did you know that there are different types of peppermint?

MENTHA PIPERITA is your classic Peppermint, balanced, sweet, and cooling. It is excellent for digestion, cooking, and for hair & scalp care (it’s gentle and won’t irritate, which is why I use its essential oil in my Elixir Hair & Scalp Oil).

But I have recently discovered Japanese Peppermint (a.k.a. MENTHA ARVENSIS), which has a higher menthol content, making it stronger and more medicinal… Perfect for intense muscle and joint relief. It is the primary ingredient in medicated muscle rubs, cooling gels, and pain-relief sprays. It is also very effective against heavy nasal congestion, and has strong antimicrobial properties.

Of course, if you are a gardener, you already know that there are countless other varieties of mint, including, American Wild Mint, Spearmint, Chocolate Mint, Orange Mint, Lemon Mint, Candy Mint, Lavender Mint, and many more…)

It just makes me happy to smell and learn about different varieties of plants… Nature is an endless source of wonder.

Propped up on pillows, I’m working on my laptop, with a bad case of lower back pain (probably triggered by bad posture at my desk the other day).

I managed to warm up some homemade bone broth (never waste a roasted chicken carcass!), and then I had a thought:

What if my Clear Up! roll-on (for congestion) could help with muscle spasms too?

Most of its essential oils are anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, or analgesic—so I rolled it generously into my palms and massaged away (and repeated a few times).
And… I believe it actually helped!
Because it’s properly diluted in organic MCT oil (not straight essential oils), it soothes instead of burning (never use essential oils pure — that’s too harsh on your skin).

I can’t tell you how often I’ve used my products for applications they weren’t meant for in the first place!

What about you? Ever used a product for a different purpose than originally intended?

01/05/2026

Each one of my formulations contains 100% natural, clean, good-for-you, ingredients, carefully sourced and blended, and is hand-poured - by me.

I only make small batches, to ensure that each time you order, the product is fresh.

Each product is concentrated (a little goes a long way) and does not contain water.

All of this mean there is no need for preservatives.

What will you choose?
Mass-produced, or artisan-made?

Sometimes the most noticeable effects come from the gentlest of plants 🌼 🌿

Roman chamomile is one of those quiet, powerful plants—understated, yet deeply effective.

In aromatherapy, Roman chamomile is known for its calming, grounding nature. It helps soften nervous tension, ease irritability, and invite the body out of “fight or flight” and into rest. Its aroma is warm, slightly fruity, and reminiscent of apples, with a lovely herbal freshness.

It’s especially beautiful for:
- Soothing an overactive mind
- Releasing emotional tension held in the body
- Supporting deeper, more restorative sleep
- Bringing a sense of inner safety and calm

I love working with Roman chamomile because it doesn’t overpower—it reassures.

You’ll find it woven into Cedar Grove, one of my perfume oils for men, where it brings balance and softness to the woodsy notes.

It’s also a key ally in Dream On!, my aromatherapy body roll-on created to support a more restful sleep. Roman chamomile helps signal to the nervous system that it’s safe to slow down, let go, and drift.

Honestly my favorite healing balm of all time!
Perfect this time of year.
Great for hands, cuticles, elbows, feet, anywhere your skin needs extra TLC.

Pure and concentrated, Radiance & Repair face oils nourish, protect, and lock moisture in for a dewy complexion.

My favorite routine is a spritz of hydrosol (rose, neroli, chamomile…) followed by a few drops of either Radiance or Repair oil, gently massaged into the skin.

There is no need for emulsifiers (your gentle massage does just that), thickeners, or preservatives.

Your skin will thank you!
