Dear Friends and Customers,
I've been quiet for a couple months, eh? Reflective and rolling with the times as I am sure you have been also. This period of 2009 has really provided an ongoing opportunity to practice good cheer and optimism regardless of the circumstances. I have been learning through my own direct experience, the more positive I am, the easier it is to manage whatever it is that it happening and in turn, great things happen seemingly like magic. See my article below on how to use your custom fragrance as a tool to raise your emotional, physical and spiritual vibration.

Fragrance Affirmations and Uses
1. Inhale your custom fragrance in the bottle deeply before you apply it to your skin. Affirmation: "I face this day with a loving, light heart. I handle every encounter and experience with the right perspective, grace and humor."  Repeat the affirmation after you apply your fragrance to your skin.

2. Remind yourself of the individual fragrance notes that I selected for your blend and what they represent. Review my hand-written card to you that explains the meaning of each fragrance note. Create your own affirmation based on one or more of the individual oils as it relates to your coming day. For example, an affirmation for vetiver and jasmine: "With vetiver I am protected from all hardship and I create abundance in all areas of my life. With jasmine, I embrace my beauty and I am filled with love."

3. As you smell your fragrance on your skin throughout the day, recall the name you or I gave it; reflect on its meaning and purpose.  Affirmation: "There is no other like me in all of the world. I cherish all that I am."

4. Remember that to smell wonderful is, truly, only a side benefit of your custom fragrance. The real purpose and intention of your custom fragrance is to center, ground, and honor your existence; to create your personal atmosphere that moves you consciously through your day-to-day experience.  Affirmation: "I am present and attentive to the world and myself. May my day-to-day efforts benefit all beings. I am blessed."
