I have the blessing of teaching healing classes all over the Southwest, however, due to the pandemonium I have not been able to teach any in-person classes since lockdown. So, when I finally had the opportunity to teach two workshops on the San Carlos Apache reservation, I was elated because I also got to meet up with traditional dressmaker, Selina Curley (who made me the most beautiful traditional skirt last year) along with some of her family members who live there.
In one of the workshops, I taught how to create an aromatic spritzer to help harmonize emotions during times of stress. After creating the blend, we all stepped outside so that everyone could spritz their personal potions into the air and try them out firsthand. There was so much happiness and laughing, that their good energy was medicine for me!
Thank you Selina for allowing me to photograph you in your beautiful colors and thank you to the San Carlos Apache community for allowing me hold space for you. I look forward to seeing you soon!
INGREDIENTS AND SUPPLIES
20 drops Grapefruit OR Tangerine essential oil
14 drops Lavender essential oil
15 drops Frankincense essential oil
2 ounces distilled water
2-ounce glass bottle with spritzer
Tiny funnel (optional)
Label
METHOD
Fill your glass bottle halfway with water. Add essential oils. Top off with water, being careful not to fill the bottle all of the way up as you need space for the spritzer. Place spritzer cap on the bottle, tighten. Label your creation.
TO USE
When you are feeling stressed, shake the bottle gently to mix the oils, spritz above your head as shown in the photo, breathing the aroma in deeply. Repeat one more time, if needed.
