  • Clarity scent: this combination of sacred desert sage and Rosemary helps jump start your day. Great for memory and alertness I recommend this pack for anyone who wants to jump start their day either to help you rise and shine with the snooze bar or after that early morning yoga class.  Also great for pre test taking as rosemary is revered for its ability to help with our memory.

  • Calming & Peaceful Cub scent: our most popular scent, this one covers it all almost. This is our sweetest scent combination incorporating all the herbs that calm and comfort us.  This combination of lavender, rose and chamomile is just an aromatic dream that calms everyone.  It is our most popular scent among kids and so we created a whole line just for them.  This combination is sure to help rest the mind and lull you to sleep like a warm cup of tea.

  • Anxiety Free scent:  needs say more.  If you suffer from stress or anxiety or just find yourself in a situation that lends itself to stress or anxiety then this is the pack for you.  This is the strongest scent combination and really packs a punch.  With sacred desert sage, lavender, chamomile, and eucalyptus there’s something for everyone and this really wakes up the mind and the senses and really encourages you to breath deep.  As you begin to breath in deep you will exhale deep and this simple function will help relax the mind and the nerves.  If sleeplessness is an issue do to ruminating thought this pack will really help you find some rest. Also great for moments of quite time, restorative work and therapeutic yoga.  Try the pocket Pod for the office or the car for those stressful moments.  

  • Headache Relief scent:  common amongst migraine sufferers is the knowledge that peppermint oil can dramatically reduce the pain of these intense headaches.  But peppermint oil is very strong and can be dangerous if miss handled or over applied, so I created an eye pillow version using dried peppermint leaf to assist in the relief of headaches while controlling the volume of the peppermint aroma.  My headache customers love this pillow and use it warm or chilled.
