Can you imagine anything more lovely than an amazing massage treatment to help you relax on holiday? During a recent family holiday to celebrate my Dad’s 80th birthday in Madeira, my daughter, Mother-in-Law and I enjoyed amazing treatments with Erika Azkue and her brother David. My daughter, Josephine and I had an Abhyanga Ayurvedic Massage, which Erika explained is a full body massage.
We are incredibly delighted to have our natural beeswax candles scented with organic essential oils available for sale at the shop at Balmoral Castle, Aberdeenshire. Balmoral is the Scottish holiday home of the British Royal Family and is open from 1 April 2015 until the Royal Family come back to stay in the summer time.
There is plenty time to still order our Organic Gift Boxes this Christmas. They are either ready-made for you just simply to cho
ose from or you can choose an empty Gift Box and fill it full of your own choice of organic products.
After listening to our customers, we now have a larger size of jar available. It is of course jammed full of our gorgeous yelllow/orange calendula ointment which is made from 100% organic ingredients.
I use the calendula macerated in sunflower oil a lot in my aromatherapy practice often blended with other carrier oils and essential oils. The calendula macerate is the main ingredient in my ointment. It is really helpful for lots of skin issues – it calms an inflamed skin such as rashes & sunburn Cracked and damaged skin can respond well to treatment with calendula. Eczema and psoriasis pro
ne skin can be extremely difficult conditions to manage, but often I have had customers report good benefits with using calendula.
I have been lucky enough this year to get some beautiful calendula flower heads from organic farmer, John Fraser ,from Aberdeenshire, Scotland. I am preparing them for macerating the petals in organic sunflower. 
They are just a stunning colour and brimming full of lovely summer goodness. I know they will make a fantastic macerate for using in my calendula ointment – hopefully the final macerate will be a rich orange colour – I can’t wait to see.
