The fresh aroma of citrus is an ideal mood booster and energizer. “It stimulates the area of the brain that makes us feel alert” says Dr. Alan Hirsch, M.D. the neurological director of the Smell and Taste Treatment Research Foundation in Chicago. For a jolt without the jitters, mist your body with grapefruit. (ed note: Look for Supernatural Botanicals new body sprays and lotions in grapefruit in October!)
Rosemary is traditionally known as the herb associated with hair. It has been said that it strengthens the hair and stimulates the scalp, and Rosemary essential oil is also thought to stimulate the mind and lift fatigue. And it makes your hair smell good, too!
Put a few sprigs of fresh rosemary in a heatproof bowl and pour on boiling water. Allow them to steep and, when cool, take out the Rosemary. Use as a final rinse to keep hair glossy and sleek . Rosemary also helps discourage dandruff. You can put the rest of the infusion into a pretty glass bottle and keep in the fridge, or somewhere out of direct light, for later use.
Rosemary is easy to grow, and spreads fairly quickly in either container gardening, or in-ground gardening.
