Aromatherapy for Colds/Stress.

This is the time of year- that Colds/Flus are invading our bodies.  My husband is just getting over a Cold.  He is the type of person that does not like to take medicine unless he really has too.  With the cold weather upon us, it can also take a toll on our bodies/energy.  So I like to find ways that smell good and make us feel good at the same time.
Came across these Shower tablets at the store other day.  There are different types/brands out there.  The ones I happen to buy were Relaxing Lavender shower tablets by Aura Cacia-pure essential oils.
 I love these in the shower. It feels like a spa experience with hot steamy water running on them.  Warm cozy pajamas after and you will be all ready for bed and a good nights sleep.

You can also make your own that are called Shower Bombs - that I have seen on Pinterest.  They would also be great Holiday gifts to give to loved ones or teachers.   Here is a link to one-
