Out-of-this-world tranquility using only natural "of-this-world" ingredients!
Don't wish, wait and hope for the day that you'll have time to care
for and cleanse your mind and body. Seize this day and create your own
at home spa experience. Create your own oasis and approach your life
with new found clarity and focus. You will become your very own source
of tranquility and inspiration.
If you have never
experienced the benefits, both physically and mentally, of a clay mask,
it is definitely time to do so. There is no doubt that having a dutiful
spa technician prepare and apply a mask is a wonderful luxury, but you
may find that it is next to impossible to just work in the time to
schedule the appointment. Planning relaxation becomes a stress in and
of itself.
Sure. You may not want to answer the door bell while you're enjoying the mask at home. But, after all, isn't that the idea?
A
simple clay mask will amaze you with its benefits as you productivity
improves, your senses become far more acute, and your focus will become
remarkable. If that's not enough, you will actually be physically
healthier and look refreshed as well. So, add this simple, homemade spa
mask recipe to those index cards for healthy dinner possibilities and
make this a staple -- stay healthy on the inside and out!
2 TBS Green Clay
1 tsp. aloe vera gel
1 tsp. macadamia oil
1 tsp. honey
1 tsp. pumpkin seed oil (or almond, olive or sesame oil)
3 tsp green tea (or variation 3 tsp. sandlewood hydrosol)
5 drops vitamin E (optional)
1 drop roman chamomile
1 drop sandlewood
1 drop ylang ylang
Mix
until smooth, spreadable "mud-like" texture. Apply to face, neck, and
upper chest for 15 minutes, once a week. Do not apply more often. This
healing clay has very strong cleansing properties. Makes approximately
2 masks. Refrigerate and use within one month. Warm container in a
warm water bath for any refrigerated portions.
After cleansing: Finish with a cucumber hydrosol spritz and light application of almond oil.
Recommendations:
While
enjoying the mask, place chilled cucumber slices over the eyes and play
soothing music to provide additional health benefits. Tibetan flute,
chants, or meditation music is a perfect accompaniment.
Melt 6 oz of unrefined coconut oil, over water, on the stove top.
