Our home base lab is in Arizona and if you know anything about our climate here, we tend to love misters (and we are not referring to the gender role).  We seek out restaurants and patios equipped with misting options, we invest in placing misters in our backyards and home outdoor areas.  Sitting in the mist – is in fact so refreshing, soothing, cooling, and comes with a sense of Zen in our summer months.

Our August featured product (and one you can save on as a result) is a MIST! 

This one has more benefits than just being refreshing, soothing, cooling and coming with a sense of ZEN! 

CBD Hydrating Facial Mist!  Hydrates, firms and tones the skin and helps with regeneration.

This is a custom blend of ours.  CUSTOM – Tailor-made, specially made, special.

We created this blend based on our experience and knowledge with plant-based essential oils.  We created this blend based on a need as we were routinely asked for in this desert environment;  for something that would hydrate, firm and tone naturally.

You may be asking why we added CBD. 

CBD hemp oil has some amazing properties and studies around it.  It is documented to be an antioxidant, aids with inflammation and helps with pain.  All those benefits combined ensure CBD Hemp Oil as a great addition to our Mist!

Let’s look at some of the other ingredients in our mist.

Carrot seed – is a bacteria fighter, anti-inflammatory topical nutrient. Perfect for the skin! 

Frankincense is a NATURAL hygiene product.  It is known to be an anti-aging, wrinkle fighter.  It also has been known to help with scars, wounds, and acne.  SKIN, SKIN, and SKIN!

The use of green coffee oil can thoroughly hydrate the skin whilst having deep moisturising effects. 

Geranium is a natural glow booster and aids with the skin’s overall health.

Are you starting to see why we placed all these items together in one custom blend?

Retinol is all about aiding in improving our skin texture, evening out our skin tone and approving the overall appearance of our skin.

Lemon – it is known to help reduce the size of your pores.  This helps make your skin look clearer, fresher and smooth.

CBD Hydrating Facial Mist!  We know you’ll enjoy using and gifting this product to your friends just as much as those of us in Arizona enjoy our patio misters in the summer heat.

Save this month – give it a try and let us know your thoughts.

Summertime has you thinking about the beach?

If you are a zodiac follower, July holds space for both Cancer and Leo and of course their elements are water and fire.  There is nothing that says beach and summer more than those two combined.  The ripple of waves, the crackle of a nice fire in the evenings.  We know you get the picture.  The beach holds a special place for so many of us!

Did you know we have a Beach Blend available in our Exfoliating Soap, Soap Dish Set, Body Lotion, Shampoo, Conditioner, Room Spray, Boxed Eco Soy Candles, Gift Bag, Small Gift Basket and our Large Gift Baskets.

We asked if you were using botanicals in your health and wellness — when you see the word botanicals what comes to mind as a definition for you?

Most think plants – that would be correct!   Let us share this definition from Webmd:

“Botanicals are derived from plants. Specifically, in the health and wellness field, this term refers to plants or parts of plants with medicinal value or health benefits. Botanicals are modified into botanical preparations, botanical drugs, and essential oils.”

Botanicals are plants with medicinal value or health benefits!  

HEALTH BENEFITS!  Your health can benefit from the use of botanicals.  We firmly believe in the use of botanicals and other natural products for our health and wellness.

Just what does our Beach Blend Essence contain?   It contains a blend of Amber Vanilla, Cardamom Seed, and Clove Leaf Oils.  This combination carries with it a hint of mystery and intrigue! 

Amber Vanilla scent melts away stresses of the world!  Makes sense that it is part of our beach blend.   We all tend to want to go to the beach for this very reason.  Its scent is second to none.

Cardamom Seed is known to be a warm, spicy and yet sweet aroma.  It’s a natural deodorizer as well!  It carries an atmosphere of calm with it and has so many other great benefits for our respiratory systems.

Clove leaf oil has a variety of benefits including having an antimicrobial (helps kill bacteria). Clove is known to be a pain relief for tooth pain and muscle aches, digestive help and respiratory relief.

Reading this combination of ingredients, do you see why we have put them together to create our “Beach Blend Essence”? 

If you are ready to start using botanicals for your health and wellness – we have the product line for you!  Check out our Botanic Collection and find the product that you are looking for with the Beach Blend Essence.

For the month of July, receive 20% off of the Beach Blend Essence at check-out use coupon code:  Beach

Have you ever Googled the words Goddess and Mancave?

Let me save you the trouble…

Goddess the first thing that pops up on my web browser is the definition for the word from the Oxford Dictionary!   Goddess:  A female deity, a woman who is adored, especially for her beauty.

Mancave the first thing that pops up is a list of what others may be asking regarding this word!  The definition is NOT the first to pop up. 
Here is the list of items others have asked for around this word: 

People also ask:
What is considered a man cave?
Why is it called man cave?
What is the meaning of man cave?
What is the point of a man cave?
What makes a man cave a man cave?
What’s the opposite of man cave?

I did click on ‘What is the meaning of man cave?’ and was given the following definition from the Webster Dictionary:  a room or space (as in a basement) designed according to the taste of the man of the house to be used as his personal area for hobbies and leisure activities.

Side note: 
You can search either of these words on our website
www.H2EDesignstore.com
and find Goddess Blend and Mancave Blend products!

We are honoring these words and our products centered around them this month – February 2024. 

Why?  It felt the right thing to do seeing as this is the month, we all acknowledge and possibly celebrate Valentines Day! 

We truly think every day we should celebrate the Goddess side of the ladies!  What a powerful thing it would be to honor those we encounter and pay credit to her ‘power’ on days she may not feel powerful.  The definition is on point, in our opinion, when it states, “a woman who is adored, especially for her beauty”.  Note it does not state physical – before the word beauty.  That part is what we loved the most!  It just said beauty!  Oh, the many things that can be defined as beautiful in another beyond the physical appearance.

We must wonder how many males get right involved with the decorating of a home.  Do we care what throw pillows are on the couch?  Do we acknowledge the tint of the paint on the wall?  Do we pick out the carpet carefully, so it blends in with the wall décor? 

The mancave definition is neat!  A space designed according to the man’s taste!  Designed not just decorated!  Interesting, isn’t it?  Is the TV wall mounted?  Are there Lounge chairs or a nice and firm couch for posture reasons?  Do you have surround sound, and more bass in the blend?  Often some of these things are just organically placed without much thought for ALL the individuals in the home.  Carving out a space – DESIGNED according to YOUR taste as a personal area – how empowering!  What would you do differently if you had this said space JUST for you? 

Side note: 
Use the code Valentine at checkout and receive 20% off any of the
Goddess or Mancave Blends.

We think these words blend to both sexes in our world.  We all have a lot of Goddess/Deity in us!   We all need a space where we can spread our wings and our tastes out just for us!   It is our hope you honor you and celebrate YOU – not just in February the month of Valentines Day and LOVE – Love yourself and celebrate you every day.

Have you ever looked up the meaning of a word and as a result searched various dictionary versions to see if it varies?   Or have you ever looked up the meaning of a word and read the dictionary definition and realized maybe you did not know what that word truly meant, or you have not used it properly all your life long?

Interestingly, enough – the word clarity is one of the few words researched that has such a consistent meaning no matter what dictionary you direct your attention towards.

Webster, Cambridge, Dictionary.com, Collins, Oxford – all share the same definition:  The state or quality of being clear in outline or sound, the quality of being easily understood, the quality of being expressed clearly, the quality of being clear and easy to understand.  

Have you ever asked someone to please ‘Clarify’ what they are saying?

People who ask for clarification are just amazing people!   Why?  Because they are truly seeking to understand what is being shared and expressed.  If you have found yourself uncomfortable asking for clarification – let this, be a turning point in that discomfort!  You merely want to ensure you understand and that is a beautiful thing in a world that is open to so many different opinions and perceptions.

Has someone ever asked you to clarify what you are stating?

It can feel a bit awkward, can’t it?   Here you are expressing, sharing, communicating and you are making perfect sense in your mind to what you are speaking, and the one listening is asking you to be clearer, to clarify and to provide clarity!  In these situations, it’s easy to wonder how we could have shared it better, how could we have made it easier for them to understand.  Self-doubt can creep in, and we wonder are we truly making sense?  Are we coming across with clarity? 

We have an oil called Clarity!

If you are here reading this, you most likely believe in essential oils and their amazing properties to assist us in a variety of ways!   If you want more information on essential oils and their health benefits skip over to our blog found here:  https://h2edesignstore.com/essential-oil-uses-and-health-benefits/   Our oil blend can assist with clarity with 3 steps! 

Our blend has Frankincense and Myrrh.

It’s no mistake these are tied to the 3 wisemen!   These are designed to open the crown and your intuitive energy!   Being open to communicate is so important and following those intuitions can be powerful when having to convey messages and be clear!  

Our blend has clove.

Clove is powerful and this oil provides clarity! 

Our blend has lemon and peppermint oils

These oils are known to motivate, bring fresh energy stir up some new ideas with that fresh energy. 

Webster Dictionary:

Clarity:  The Quality of being easily understood.

                The state of having a full, detailed, and orderly mental grasp of something.

                The quality of being easily seen or heard.

We have an oil for that!

Essential oils infuse your living space with pleasant aromas, but they also deliver amazing health benefits. What are essential oils? How are they created? And what are their health benefits? Keep reading to find out.

What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are the concentrated aromatic essences of plants, seeds, flowers, bark, roots, fruits, wood, and other parts of plants that have been steam distilled or cold-pressed.

They are volatile, meaning that they evaporate easily and will quickly evaporate at room temperature. The essential oil molecules are very small and need to be diluted in a carrier oil before being applied to the skin or evaporated into the atmosphere via a diffuser.

Essential oils contain many different chemical compounds, including terpenes, resins, flavonoids, chlorophyll, phenols, and a variety of other beneficial compounds.

How Essential Oils are Made and Extracted?

Techniques to create essential oils have been around for centuries, with ancient healers accessing the benefits of plants through salves, poultices, and medicinal teas. These were the only forms of medicine available for thousands of years until the pharmaceutical industry came along with other options.

As more people turn to more traditional healing methods, now is as good a time as any to understand where your aromatherapy products come from and how they are created.

Essential oils are extracted from the plant’s aromatic essence, or the oil responsible for the plant’s aroma. Plants use the oil to attract pollinators, repel predators, and inhibit competitive species from growing in the same area. Many essential oils also act as an anti-microbial system to protect the plant from disease.

Glandular structures in the plant produce the oils, which are extracted using steam distillation or cold pressing.

In steam distillation, hot steam pulls the oils from the plant and is forced through a tube where it condenses back into the water. The oils are collected as they separate from the cooling water.

Cold pressing, most often used to produce citrus oils, involves agitating the fruits of the plant with spikes or grating to puncture the oil sacs beneath the surface. The fruit is then pressed to squeeze out the oil and juice before going into a high-speed centrifuge that separates the solids and liquids so the oil can be extracted.

Benefits of Using Essential Oils

Essential oils are often marketed as a cure-all for a wide variety of ailments. However, even the highest quality products are no substitute for medical care. Instead, think of essential oils as an addition to a healthier lifestyle and a way to improve your self-care. Here are just a few of the benefits of essential oils.

Reduce Stress and Anxiety

Phytomedicine published a review [*1] of 90 randomized and nonrandomized studies in 2019 and concluded that inhaling or ingesting lavender oil can lower anxiety levels.

Headache Relief

Headaches are a massive health issue, affecting up to 75% of the population. According to this review [*2], an application of peppermint oil around the head and temple could provide some headache relief. Due to its cooling and analgesic properties, peppermint’s menthol component is believed to be most responsible for headache relief.

Nausea Relief

Peppermint and ginger essential oils are often used for nausea relief and digestive discomfort. Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics published a review [*3] revealing the potential for peppermint to lower nausea-inducing inflammation and relax gastrointestinal muscles.

Other health benefits offered by essential oils include:

  • Easing menstrual cramps
  • Improving sleep quality
  • Antimicrobial effects for disease protection
  • Relief from muscle pain

Using Essential Oils at Home and Business

You can use essential oils at home or at the office for a variety of benefits, from improving productivity to creating a more welcoming, stress-free environment for your customers.

Rosemary – Promotes productivity in the office as it helps to increase concentration and focus.

Bergamot – Boosts the room’s overall mood with its delightful Earl Grey tea scent and makes an excellent environmental cleaning spray.

Lemongrass – A lemongrass-infused office environment will ensure everyone is alert and energized. The aroma is also an excellent insect deterrent, especially against fruit flies and gnats.

Clove – The heady pumpkin spice aroma of clove is peaceful and uplifting, and perfect for promoting good cheer around the holidays.

Quality CBD Oil

 

It seems that CBD oil is everywhere these days. Not only can you purchase CBD oil as a standalone product in a little glass vial, but it’s also used as an ingredient in everything from chocolates to candles. Skincare and beauty products have also not escaped the growing fascination with CBD oil and its benefits. But, what is CBD oil, why is it unique, and most importantly, is it legal? Keep reading to learn more about this fascinating product.

What is CBD?

CBD is short for cannabidiol, a naturally occurring product extracted from cannabis plants. Another well-known compound cannabis is famous for is THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol). However, unlike THC, cannabidiol is not a psychoactive drug. You can not get high by consuming it or putting it on your skin.

CBD oil and CBD products are legal in many States, but the commercial product must contain less than 0.3% THC.

A lot of ongoing research continues to explore CBD benefits for a wide range of conditions. According to some studies, CBD oil may help with chronic inflammation, alleviate anxiety, reduce muscle pain, and help with sleep issues. Other reports say that CBD oil can help with acne due to its ability to reduce sebum production.

What Makes CBD Oil Unique?

Care is required when purchasing CBD oil, as many retailers selling hemp oil will attempt to mislead you with clever advertising so you believe that what you are buying is the more expensive CBD product. There are many beauty and skincare products available with hemp oil, but the two compounds are not the same.

CBD is extracted from the leaves and flowers of the hemp plant, while hemp oil is processed from the seeds and contains no cannabinoids. It’s the cannabinoids that are responsible for CBD oil’s many unique properties.

The human body has what is known as the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a regulatory network of trillions of receptor cells.

Research into ECS’s roles in the human body is relatively recent, but it is considered critical for just about every bodily function. For example, the ECS has roles in forming memories, emotional processing, regulating sleep, and maintaining our core body temperature. It is also active in immune and inflammatory responses and pain regulation.

Stimulating the ECS receptors requires molecules called endocannabinoids, which bear a remarkable similarity to the cannabinoid molecules in CBD.  It is thought that many of the CBD benefits people experience could be due to the CBD cannabinoids’ ability to interact with the ECS receptors the same way the naturally occurring ones do.

CBD Benefits for the Skin

Skincare products containing CBD are anti-inflammatory, which means they may be able to reduce redness and swelling.

Along with cannabinoids, high-quality CBD oil is also loaded with antioxidants, which are compounds that can slow down or reverse the aging process. Your skin can absorb these compounds directly, which makes them a great addition to your morning skincare routine.

Using CBD infused massage oils can enhance the effects of a professional massage. With CBD’s ability to relieve muscle aches and pains, you could be feeling the benefits of a massage for a lot longer. 

Now that CBD is legal and research continues to find new CBD benefits, nothing is stopping you from trying it yourself. Check out our online marketplace to find the right CBD product for you that can rejuvenate your skin or provide some relief from aching joints and muscles.

Essential Oils for Peace and Wellness

Essential oils have been used for thousands of years, helping people destress and to support health and wellness. You will find essential oils that assist the body from everything to sore throats and headaches to getting a good night’s sleep. But, what are essential oils and how do they work?

What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are plant extracts created by pressing or steaming parts of the plant to release the compounds responsible for the aroma.

Fortunately, extraction techniques today are a lot more advanced than the primitive processes used by ancient civilizations, and we now have access to the most potent, purest forms of oil possible. Still, several pounds of plants are often required to create just a few ounces of bottled oil. ​

The compounds released by the extraction process inherit the plant’s healing properties, and you can access them through aromatherapy.

How Does Aromatherapy Work?

Aromatherapy uses gentle heat to diffuse the oil into the atmosphere. When inhaled, the plant compounds are absorbed through your olfactory sense organs.

The scent molecules interact with the olfactory nerves directly, sending signals through to influence the amygdala or emotional center of the brain.

The skin is also able to absorb essential oils, which is why massage therapists often make extensive use of them during treatment. The oils work their way through your epidermis to provide enhanced benefits such as soothing tired muscles or a longer-lasting feeling of relaxation.

Best Essential Oils for Peace and Wellness

One of the most popular uses for essential oils is to release stress, especially after a bad day at work. An essential oil diffuser is used to gently heat the oil so it releases its compounds into the atmosphere. where they can be breathed in.

The healing oils are a popular accessory to use during meditation or enjoying a relaxing soak in a warm tub.

You will often find essential oils as ingredients in healing balms and salves. It is said that a lavender healing balm used by a French chemist named Rene Maurice Gattefosse in 1910 provided the inspiration for research into aromatherapy.

After burning his hand in a laboratory accident, Rene noticed that the only remedy available to him at the time, a pure, undiluted lavender salve, provided immediate relief from pain, and also seemed to help produce healing without scars.

It wasn’t until 1937 that Gattefosse first coined the term for using plant extracts to assist with healing as aromatherapy.

There are essential oils to help with a wide range of maladies, relieve stress, and help you relax. Here are a few of our favorites.

Clove: Clove is an excellent oil to keep on standby for sore throats because its antiseptic properties can ward off a wide range of microbes. Clove is so effective as an antiseptic that it has even been the subject of an extensive study. [source]

Lavender: Lavender is a household name well-known for its soothing properties and for providing relief from burns, cuts, and stings. It’s the antioxidant properties of lavender that deliver its powerful effects.

Oregano: Research is ongoing on the healing effects of oregano essential oils. So far, studies show that it may have positive effects on changes in blood count and immune responses and anti-fungal and antibacterial properties.

Peppermint: This essential oil is one that people often use to infuse their homes and offices with its pleasing scent that never fails at creating a sense of peace and calm. Its antibiotic properties also make it an excellent choice for playing a supporting role in getting fast relief from flu and colds.

Sandalwood; Another essential oil that assists with sore throats as well as a gentle bactericide that can prevent bacteria from reproducing to dangerously invasive levels. It is also said to promote property nervous system function, which is why it’s a popular scent used by massage therapists and chiropractors.

CBD Oil and Products

 

According to experts at the World Health Organization, a compound is found in the hemp plant that is not harmful and may even provide numerous health benefits. 

The compound in question is called cannabidiol, or CBD, which does not produce the high associated with consuming marijuana. Read on to learn more about what CBD oil is, how it’s made, and whether it is legal. 

What is CBD Oil?

CBD is one of over 100 chemical compounds found in Cannabis Sativa, but it doesn’t have any psychoactive properties that get you high. You can safely consume CBD oil orally, but it’s also a popular additive in cosmetics, creams and can even be served to you in a latte. 

There are two main species of Cannabis sativa: hemp and marijuana. Marijuana contains higher levels of THC, while hemp is typically less than 0.3% THC. The hemp plant is the variety from which all CBD is created. 

It’s important to distinguish hemp oil and CBD oil as the two are not the same. Hemp oil is extracted from seeds of the hemp plant, which do not contain CBD, but its moisturizing properties and high levels of healthy fats make it a popular additive in beauty products. 

Is CBD Oil Addictive and is it Legal?

CBD oil does not produce any psychoactive effects, and you cannot develop a tolerance to it. Studies are indicating that CBD oil may help treat addiction in some individuals. 

Consuming CBD may produce some mild side effects, including drowsiness, upset stomach, dry mouth, and diarrhea. However, these symptoms most often subside once the body becomes accustomed to CBD. 

Health Benefits of CBD Oil

CBD contains cannabidiol which seems to react with the body’s natural endocannabinoid system (ECS), although research scientists are still unsure how it does this.

The ECS is responsible for maintaining homeostasis, or equilibrium, in the body. It naturally produces endocannabinoids to help the body deal with stress, sleep problems, mood swings, digestion, and pain. 

Endocannabinoids help the body’s systems communicate with each other to keep us healthy. Research suggests that using CBD oil can assist with the process, with many people using CBD products to ease symptoms caused by stress, get a good night’s sleep, or as a digestive aid. 

Many athletes are also using CBD oil to assist with their recovery and manage pain after a vigorous training session. The World Anti-Doping Agency recently removed CBD from the banned substance list, so professional athletes can now use it without risk to their careers.

The CBD market is now filled with a wide variety of products and delivery methods. You can use it as a cream on your skin, an oil solution, shampoo, soap, exfoliators, massage oil, and more.

The second chakra is referred to as the belly or sacral chakra.  It is located two inches below the navel and is rooted into the spine.  This center holds the basic needs for sexuality, creativity, intuition, self-worth, friendliness, and emotions.  It governs one’s sense of self-worth, confidence in one’s creativity and the ability to relate to others in an open and friendly way.  It is governed by how emotions were either repressed or expressed in the family dynamic during childhood.  When in balance, this chakra allows emotions to flow freely, and allows one to feel and reach out to others (sexually or not).

When this chakra is blocked, a person may feel emotionally explosive, manipulative, obsessed with thoughts of sex or complete lack of energy.  Physical problems can include constipation, stiff lower back, weak kidneys, and muscle spasms. Belly body parts include the sexual organs (women), kidneys, bladder, and large intestine.
