For me, healthy living isn’t just about a diet and exercise. It is about taking care of my body inside and out. Often times people spend a lot of time watching what they put in their body, but give little to no thought about what they are putting on their body. Have you ever looked at the ingredient list on a commercial bottle of deodorant or antiperspirant? It is pretty scary stuff. I prefer to make my own. That way, I know exactly what I am putting on my body. Plus, DIY projects are just really fun! Since you already have all the ingredients to make this, you might as well make a batch of my DIY Essential Oil Relaxation Rub. Interested in learning more about essential oils? I would love to teach you. Don’t hesitate to reach out.
