THE BEAUTY OF SAGE

When I walk into a yoga or massage studio that has sage essential oil and sage smudge sticks on its shelves, I inhale and feel immediately enveloped by its earth herbal aroma. It brings me a deep sense of peace and calm. Makes sense, as sage is known for its dopamine boosting properties and was called “The Sacred Herb” by ancient Romans. So I knew I had to find a good sage vendor and get some for my space.

So I found Faiza Naturals, an ethical spiritual wholesale producer of sage based out of Southern California. They engage in earth friendly farming by sun drying their sage and rotating their crops. I chose a lovely, colorful bunch of assorted sage bundles: white sage blended with lavender, nag champ, patchouli, rosemary, rose petals & more. Burning this sage in your home boosts mood and helps with mental clarity, is purported be spiritually purifying, and helps clear our respiratory passageways. I find just the act of lighting the sage, taking a few deep breaths and waving it around my home brings me a sense of calm and focus — not to mention makes my space smell amazing.

I wanted to encourage people to bring the joy of sage bundles home with them, so I’m giving away a FREE sage bundle when you book any of Bella Mina’s Sage Signature Specials. I paired sage with willow balm for these services because willow balm has been a favorite for many of my clients and they create such a harmonizing aroma.

If you need a place to lay your sage while it burns, I also have Abalone Shell Smudge Bowls for sale. If you think it’s too lovely to burn, feel free to leave it on a table or in a small bowl as a decorative piece. The subtle scent of the sage lingers for a while in the room.

If you book a Sage & Willow Balm Massage or Body Wrap, Sage essential oil provides moisturizing and conditioning properties and provides antioxidants, and works with Willow Balm as an anti-inflammatory. The earthy-minty scent of Willow Balm combines well with sage to create a grounding and relaxing mind-body-spirit experience. The sage creates a soothing, balancing and uplifting effect to reduce fatigue and anxiety.

The Sage & White Willow Bark Balancing Facial has the added benefit of providing a greater boost of antioxidants for face, neck and decollate, while reducing swelling and balancing oil production. The aromatic effects of the sage & willow are boosted by steam application to open pores.

And finally, the Sage & Willow Balm Pedicure stimulates and then relaxes the nervous system with the cool effects of aromatherapy and the warming effects of hot towels and Herbal Sage & Rose petal Foot Soak.

After your service, you get to pick out your free sage bundle from my lovely assortment and I’ll put it in a mesh bag for you.

Note — please use caution if you have a respiratory condition, it may be best to keep your sage bundle as a decoration and enjoy its subtle scents.

Thanks for reading and I look forward to sharing the joy of SAGE with you !!
