Long cold winter nights bring about the perfect time to recharge, reflect, and reevaluate what’s truly important in our lives. So, over the next few months we strongly encourage you to closely and honestly reexamine all of your relationships. To be able to do so with clarity, you first have to reconnect with your own thoughts, values and desires. After all, knowing yourself is the only way to truly understand what you can contribute and take away from any given relationship - be it with a family member, friend or colleague.

This month’s Winter Solstice Box features a collection of handcrafted personal care products that are specially formulated to enhance the most important relationship in your life - the one you have with yourself. By learning to embrace and respect yourself, you will attract people who will treat you accordingly. This is why the company a person keeps is often revealing of his or her own self-worth. Therefore, it is incredibly important to surround yourself with people who appreciate exactly who you are and will help you become who you want to be.

The artisan collection of products in our Winter Solstice Box is infused with invigorating essential oils that help promote self-love. Pine, for example, will amplify your sense of self-worth, while Geranium is going to evoke feelings of peace. Frankincense can help you move closer to spiritual awareness, as Ylang Ylang and Rose will amplify your commitment to loving relationships. We’ve also included a quartz pendulum to assist you in your spiritual journey.
