The Gift of Pause

What would help summer feel a little lighter?

January has its own kind of busyness.

Long hot days. Visitors. Holidays. Gardens growing faster than we can keep up with them. More time outdoors, more running around, and sometimes less rest than we imagined summer would bring.

So for our first Living Waters workshop of the year, we’re starting with a pause.

A relaxed morning to slow things down, enjoy some beautiful essential oils and explore a few useful ideas for making the Australian summer feel calmer, fresher and easier.

A very Australian summer

Summer in Queensland means warm evenings, barbecues, gardens, beach trips and plenty of time outdoors.

We’ll explore essential oils and blends that are particularly useful to have around at this time of year.

We’ll look at fresh, uplifting and grounding aromas, including oils such as Lemongrass, Cedarwood, Peppermint and Citronella, and talk about practical ways to use them safely at home.

And because summer also brings a few decidedly less glamorous visitors, we’ll introduce doTERRA TerraArmour, their outdoor essential-oil blend, and look at how it can fit into your summer routine.

Because mosquitoes rarely respect anyone’s plans for a peaceful evening. 😄

Make your own Summer Body Polish

This month’s make-and-take is completely for you.

You’ll create your own Summer Body Polish, a gentle natural body scrub made with sugar and nourishing oils to exfoliate dry skin and leave it feeling soft and smooth.

Then you’ll personalise it with essential oils to create an aroma that feels right for you.

Perhaps you’d like something:

FRESH
bright and clean

CALM
soft and relaxing

GROUNDING
warm and settling

UPLIFTING
light and cheerful

We’ll show you how to make it, how to use it and how to choose oils appropriately for use on the skin.

Take it home and enjoy a little summer pause whenever you feel like one.

Morning Tea

Once we’ve finished making, we’ll gather around the table for Living Waters herbal teas, homemade organic treats and something cool and summery.

There’ll be time to chat, ask questions, share ideas and simply enjoy the morning together.

Who it’s for

You don’t need to know anything about essential oils.

This workshop is for anyone who’d enjoy a relaxed summer morning while learning a few practical ways to use essential oils at home.

Perhaps you’d like some fresh ideas for the warmer months. Maybe you’re ready for a slower start to the year. Or perhaps you simply like the idea of making something lovely for yourself.

Come on your own or bring a friend and make a morning of it.
