March, the month of renewal!

Welcome to the month of March, the month of renewal!

The dandelions and the early buds of spring are a welcomed sign this month. Winter, the season that forces us to slow down and rest, is coming to a close and many of us are feeling the beginning signs of new life all around.

The product of the Month: 15mL Grapefruit Oil

Grapefruit essential oil is created by cold-pressing the rind of the grapefruit to extract the oil. Grapefruit oil’s properties together have a huge appeal to anyone working to lose weight. Grapefruit tastes great and the essential oil has a wide variety of healthy options.

Some of the primary benefits of Grapefruit essential oil include:

• It supports a healthy metabolism by stimulating endocrine glands and promoting proper secretion of hormones and enzymes, thereby keeping your body’s entire metabolism in proper order.

• It helps to reduce mental and physical fatigue.

• One of the most recognized benefits of grapefruit essential oil and other citrus oils is their positive effect on the lymphatic system, which plays a role in your body’s detoxification mechanism.

• With vitamin C and its antioxidants, grapefruit essential oil can support your immune system and helps fight free radicals.
