DIY fire lighters for free:

I cleaned up my candle stick holder today and decided to melt down some used up candle ends.

I put the ends into a pan and put the candle jars into some warm water in a pot to melt slowly then added all the waxes together to melt. Remove old wicks.

I had some string in the draw and some egg cartons.

I cut the cotton string into little wick sized strings (you can use old dried tea bags) and added the hot wax and the strings.

Let them cool until they are solid.

You can leave them as a tray and cut as you need or cut each segment and store them.

Light the end and use these instead of shop brought lighters.

Let me know how you get on with these.

I try to use everything I have and recycle, and learn how to make things instead of rely on convenience.. because that like everything has a cost.

I've gotten to the point where I don't have a rubbish bin anymore.

One degree shifts in alignment with how you want to live creates a 360degree shift before you know it.

**Magnesium magic ✨**

Magnesium has been a total game-changer for me over the last few years—and the good news is, you don’t need to spend $50 on sprays or fancy supplements to get the benefits. I felt off after having magnesium supplements and had scary dreams so prefer other methods but everyone is different!

🛁 **Transdermal boost:**
An epsom salts bath is one of the best ways to get magnesium into your body. It helps draw out toxins, and since your skin is the largest organ, it's a super efficient way to absorb it.

🌱 **Food as medicine:**
Every morning I have a tablespoon each of pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds—both great magnesium sources and help to remove parasites in the gut. (My dog loves pumpkin seeds.) I also have a teaspoon of almond butter (from the machine at Binn Inn—no additives!), which gives a good dose of zinc. Hot tip: if you’re doing red light therapy, a little almond butter beforehand can enhance the benefits!

💧 **DIY mag spray for pain + daily use:**
After experiencing some unexpected long term health side effects (from the Covid vaccine), I started using magnesium spray— It’s made a big difference for sleep, tummy pain, headaches, and pain in general. (Full list below of other benefits.) I also made the connection that the same mag spray recipe was a great natural deodorant and after trialing a few other natural, aluminum free deodorants, making my own and using one all rounder spray has been a win.

I make it myself using magnesium chloride flakes (available online), mixed with purified water in a spray bottle. I add a few drops of sage essential oil and use it as both a deodorant and pain spray. It’s simple, natural, and powerful.

The recipe I use is below!🌿

Healing with water:

Often we go to medication, or the quickest way to heal the symptoms of pain instead of preventive methods!

I am a big fan of meditation, energy healing, frequency healing and giving my body, mind and soul what it needs so I don't get in a state of dis-ease.

If you're feeling run down, doing more isn't always the answer and blanketing the symptoms isn't going to help. It is much easier to deal with issues that arise to stop them in their tracks, then trying to recover from something we could work on now.

If you are run down, tonight prepare yourself some healing water for the week to drink tomorrow. Boil your water to purify if you don't have a purifier, and add in whatever you need. Herbs, ginger, rose water etc, depending on what you instinctively feel will help.

One small change, will make your life easier. Focus on rest, instead of recovery. Preventative instead of prescriptive. Our food is our medicine. Our bodies are self healing. Give yourself what you need.

We will often go externally to someone or something, even algorithms these days to heal ourselves.. our body already knows. Tune in and spend time living in alignment with health, over weightless. Selfcare over stress.

HAIR CARE 101 COMING IN HOT: 💈

Super excited to be introducing "Shake it up."
Natural, vegan friendly, unisex volume + texture powder for your hair!

Just Shake a little product into the roots and rub it in for extra root volume, you can use it like a dry shampoo to absorb oil and refresh the roots, or texture and hold for shorter styles. Brushes out easily, and is a great product to hold back combing in.

I have been using this all wedding season on my clients and clients love it and can't get enough of the scent.

Aniseed + Vanilla
Shake it up volume powder
$28.00
100% natural
Made in Wellington NZ

I chose these two essential oils, because Google says vanilla is great for your hair – If you suffer with split-ends or hair loss, vanilla used as an essential oil can strengthen the hair and induce blood flow to the scalp promoting hair growth.

Aniseed essential oil is used as a hair lubricant for smoother and more manageable hair as well as repairing damaged hair. Aniseed oil also helps in stimulating hair growth of new hair.

Every ingredient is natural and has a purpose to benefit the hair. As a qualifed hairdresser I have developed products my clients love and I use personally, with everything you need and nothing you don't.
