Your Grounding Ritual
Bay Laurel Circulation Ritual
Transform your daily routine into a therapeutic spa moment:
Begin by dry brushing the body in long, upward strokes to awaken the skin and gently encourage lymphatic flow.
Warm a small amount of Bay Laurel Body Oil between your palms and inhale deeply — allowing the grounding, herbal aroma of bay laurel and vetiver to center your mind.
​
Massage the oil slowly into your skin, focusing on areas that crave release or feel heavy. Move in circular motions around joints and sweeping strokes toward the heart to awaken circulation and ease muscular tension.
​
For amplified benefits, follow your massage with a sauna session or a warm bath — allowing the botanicals to penetrate deeply as your body softens and unwinds.
Close your ritual with a moment of stillness, hands resting over your heart, giving gratitude to your body for carrying you.
