The weightless, multiaction formula is packed with probiotics, proteins, and minerals to deeply nourish and smooth skin, while also prepping it for flawless makeup application and all-day wear.

BUDDHI BOX

“I swear, I’ll make it to the next yoga class” or “I’ll just start my diet tomorrow”? If these excuses sound all too familiar, maybe you just haven’t been giving yourself the proper motivation. You can buy another pair of workout pants OR you can try something a little more fun.

BuddhiBox is a monthly care package filled with a curated assortment of unique and artisanal yoga products and deluxe cruelty-free samples, designed to keep you inspired both on and off your mat. Filled with cute accessories, yummy snacks, and high-quality beauty products, this box will keep your practice top of mind even when you’d rather be savasana-ing from the comfort of your own bed.

Each box contains a mixture of 5-6 deluxe samples and full size items for $32.95/month. If you find yourself feeling particularly inspired by a certain item in your BuddhiBox and would like to purchase one for a friend (or more for yourself!) just check out the website.

All of the items inside your monthly BuddhiBox, as well as limited edition boxes, can be purchased via the online store. 

An added bonus to this unique box is its give-back aspect, derived from the yoga concept of Aparigraha, or non-greediness. BuddhiBox gives back to the community by donating a portion of its proceeds to a different charity each month. In August, the proceeds are going to the One Love Movement, an organization that aims to raise awareness for under-privileged women and youth.   

By donating a portion of its proceeds to a different charity every month, BuddhiBox truly embodies the yogi lifestyle of giving back.

Farmaesthetics’ NEW Etheric Inhalation Oils

January 14, 2017

Farmaesthetics’ NEW Etheric Inhalation Oils are the brand’s signature essential oil blends that work with the sensory paths to help break the cycle of stress. By engaging the respiratory system through deep inhalation, we engage with the therapeutic properties of each oil to boost the system, helping restore the inherent ability to cope with life’s daily stressors. Inhaling the powerful molecules of plants, as captured in therapeutic grade essential oil, gently and quickly diverts the mind and moves the body from a state of imbalance toward one of wellbeing.

   

Adrenal Support

An oil that helps your adrenal glands maintain appropriate energy levels to prevent fatigue and exhaustion from relentless over-firing. Black spruce, pine, hemp and grapefruit are nature’s age-old remedy to renew and support adrenal complex function and they join in this formula.

 

To Use: Add two to three drops to your palms then slowly rub them together to warm and release the vapors. Then, loosely cup over your nose and breathe deeply and slowly for 30 seconds. You can also place three to four drops on your hands and press onto your back where your kidneys are located, or place a drop or two into eight ounces of oil for use in an external massage. A few drops in a hot bath will create an adrenal remedy soak.

Dreaming

A blend of lavender and clary sage essential oils that combine to shift a work-weary or worried mind into a gentler realm. Like a lullaby for grownups, this oil is like the whisper of something soft and kind at bedtime. A flutter of therapeutic, aromatic molecules soothes once warmed in the palms or placed on a cotton ball or hankie and placed under your pillow.

 

To Use: Add two to three drops to your palms then slowly rub them together to warm and release the vapors. Then, loosely cup over your nose and breathe slowly for 30 seconds. You can also add three to four drops to a teacup of steaming water then hold up to your face, breathing in the vapor for 30-60 minutes. Or, place two drops onto a bedside lamp lightbulb, as the heat of the bulb will release the vapors. Finally, you can also place four to five drops onto a cotton ball or hankie and place it near your pillow. If you wake in the night, cuddle the cotton cloth close to your face to re-engage the oils.

The heat-producing, therapeutic essential oils release when warmed between your palms or when added to a warm bath, imparting a scent of orange and clove.
