Now more than ever is a great time to cleanse ourselves inside and out while welcoming this wonderful time of year. So put on your comfy summer jammies, grab a glass of whatever quenches your thirst, and join  in on  an interactive vitual spa night.

Dana will be giving a hair mask tutorial with the ingredients listed below. We may also do facials and a tutorial on “dry brushing”. Many of the ingredients for the mask and facial you probably already have in the house, and if not can pick up cheaply and easily at  your local  pharmacy or grocery store.

Registration by noon on the Friday prior is  necessary since our get together will be done via teleconferencing and we need to send you the login details.

Hair Mask Ingredients:

  • Coconut oil
  • Pink Himalayen salt (or any salt that is not fine. Himalayen sea salt works too!)
  • Tea tree, lavender, peppermint or rosemary essential oil
  • You will need a bowl and a towel

Face Mask Ingredients:

If you already have a mask –  use that!   If not then you’ll need:

  • Honey
  • Oats (preferably big oats)

If you have micellar  water, toner, and moisturizer, please have close at hand as well. If you do not have a dry bush ,that’s ok!  Dana will explain the proper way to use one. Any questions – feel free to contact her.

Art Therapy Sessions: Loss, Grief and Transformation

It can help guide grieving caregivers towards transformation as they allow themselves time to process the significance of this journey.
