with Banyan Tree

My apartment never feels like home without some aromatherapy. I love breathing in and enjoying the scents of my favorite essential oils. With so much craziness going on when we open our phones {& having a job that requires you to be on the phone all the time}, it's nice to sit back, unplug and take in relaxing oil blends. After all, aromatherapy is the balance & harmony of body and mind. I always speak about how important it is to give yourself a break and think about your wellness {I do this a lot to get myself into the habit!}. Spa-remedy lines, like Banyan Tree, are perfect for your recharge moments in the day.

Why I Love Banyan Tree

The Scents: Coined as 'A Sanctuary of the Senses,' it's truly an experience taking in their botanical blends. Blending essential oils to create my very own scent has been so enjoyable for me. Having control over what you smell makes the experience more enjoyable and inspires you to take more time to focus on your well-being.

The Traditions: To think of the people and the culture behind each scent gives you a better connection to the product & its benefits {not only for you but the trade communities, too}. Banyan Tree creates economic opportunities for many artisan communities around the globe. In their Pride of Craft book, you can learn more about the makers behind these beautiful products.

The Commitment to the Planet & our Health: Besides responsibly sourcing all of their materials, each product is free of parabens and cruelty-free.

The Experiential Essential Oil Sets: You get to play around to find your favorite scent. I love combining lavender and bergamot in my bedroom when relaxing at the end of the day and then orange, grapefruit, and rosemary in my living room for a super fruity scent to keep my senses going during the day. Sometimes a stone full of lavender beside my bed is exactly what I need for a good night's rest! Each kit comes with suggested blends, but if you are keener on a particular oil, go heavier!
