  THE VIOLET HUMMINGBIRD

Spring and Summer 2023:

Oh the growth!  Oh the addition of herbs and flowers and vegetables!  The pictures are just so lovely!  Seems like every day there's more growth, more green more love!  

I'm am creating a 'bug aversion' planter.   Herbs are our best friend and to most flying annoyances, they are exactly that.  A little Catnip, Basil, Thyme, Lemongrass and Lavender.  The strong scent of these herbs will help keep bugs at bay.

Another option are smudge sticks of Sage, Lavender and other herbs mentioned above.  The high level of citronellal from Lemon Balm and Lemon Thyme, bugs detest.  Burning Sage along with Lavender and other herbs keep bugs away also.  The smoke of the sage with the chemical properties of linalool and camphor of the herbs, make the bugs stay away also.

Herbs don't only make for a tasty meal but they help us in so many other ways!

Have any other questions?  Send me an email!  Have a wonderful day!

​Summer is here and the living is easier.  The schedules slow down some, schools are closed, vacations have been scheduled.  Time to enjoy family and friends.   Spend time in the great outdoors. 

The great outdoors that includes bugs that just want to have their own fun - biting us!  Just as we sit to relax by the firepit, or have a late night walk on the beach.   Lavender essential oil is great to wear to keep the bugs at bay.  Use a roller bottle with a drop of Clove and Lavender EO to help keep the peskies away - and the scent is fabulous!

Then there is the sun.  We love the sun!  It makes us smile and laugh and feel so alive!  Then we realize we have a sunburn!  WHAT???  Try white vinegar to help take the sting away.  A lavender lotion will help along with peppermint - the crazy oil that will both cool and heat depending on what your body calls for.

Go have fun and keep a few holistic tools in your beach bag!

Love and Light
