Lavender Mondays

Sometimes Mondays can be exhausting.  So, if you're feeling especially tired today here's a great recipe to unwind.


Lavender Tea~

To make lavender tea, simply infuse a handful of dried lavender blossoms in a pot of boiling water. Let the tea steep for about 7 to 10 minutes 

then strain, add a few tea spoons of dried honey and enjoy. 
In a pinch, just buy the lavender tea bags.                  









                

Lavender Mineral bath~
  

 Light a few tea light lavender candles and add lavender minerals to a nice warm bath.

It's said to relieve muscle pain, migraines and 

other headaches, and inflammation.  It also 

may help to relieve insomnia.

Add a nice cap full of lavender mineral bath

Lavender Oil~

After your bath, apply mildly heated lavender oil to your body

and slip into your lavender robe 

and read a lavender book

in your lavender bed. 

OK maybe that was a bit much.   

You get the point.

Enjoy your lavender Monday!
