How to Make Lavender Water
Lavender water is so refreshing and it’s long-lasting. It can be used to freshen up the air or try spraying it on your yoga mat or bed sheets. It can even be used to spritz your clothes while ironing. I like to keep a small bottle in my car for cooling off on hot days. Lavender water is for external use only. Do not spray into eyes or other sensitive areas.
Lavender oil has a calming and soothing effect and can relieve tension. It can be effective for headaches and insomnia too. Did you know it also has antibacterial qualities?
Here’s how to make lavender water …
Advice from a Tree
What an opportunity to experience yoga’s tree pose (Vriksasana) while absorbing the energy from the trunk of this tree. What a powerful experience to feel into the roots of this tree, to reflect on its life, and to stand where it stood for so many years. It seemed perfect to pair the photo with “the advice from a tree.” from ‘anon.’ Learn the tree pose below.
stand tall and proud
go out on a limb
remember your roots
drink plenty of water
be content with your natural beauty
enjoy the view
And I’d like to add…
bask in the sun
don’t mind the clouds
provide shelter for birds, squirrels, and other creatures
go with the winds that are blowing through your life
climb a tree once in a while
Practice yoga’s tree pose (vrksasana) to gain balance, core strength, humility, centering, and self-acceptance.
Stand tall. Balance your weight equally on both feet in mountain pose (tadasana). Put your hands on your hips. Breathe. Raise your right foot and press it into the inside of your left leg either above or below the knee. Steady your gaze. Raise your arms up like branches. Wobbling is normal and helpful. Hold for several breaths and repeat on the other side. See the picture above.
