Intentions.....

I am always, always searching for healing recipes to soothe the mind, body and soul.

I am sure each one of us has had a moment in our lives that was a turning point, paradigm shift, tipping of the scales, you know.... I received the diagnosis of Reumatoid Arthritis over two years ago. It made sense. My body was battling itself. My skin was very reactive to the slightest things... Anything that I formerly used for skin and hair care was not working. I knew I had to forge my own path.

I work with my horses and hounds everyday, my hands are always in water- in all kinds of temperatures and weather conditions. This added another layer. I read anything credible that I could get my hands on. I believe in the power of nature and its healing properties, so I made soap!

I made A LOT of soap!! Goats Milk soap was (and still is) my first passion... I gave this precious little cake of luxuriousness to my family and friends, and ya know what? ...They wanted more!!

Most importantly, I noticed, my family and friends noticed,-- our skin looked and felt nourished!

I had no more wild breakouts or irritations- YAY! ..... They loved that the soaps felt so different. The lather felt like liquid silk, the scents were calming....

I made MORE..... and haven't stopped ..... I love seeing the smiles, and helping out others in this small way....

Each day is a gift....the journey continues.. Til next time-

Take care,

J.
