Earth & Oil Deodorant Recipe

I posted a recipe for homemade deodorant a couple of weeks ago. It was fantastic for eliminating odor, but it irritated my underarms. I think the baking soda was the culprit. So, daughter and I developed a new concoction that we think will work famously. If you so desire, try this recipe.

Ingredients:

• 5 tbsp coconut oil
• 1 tbsp emu oil
• 4 tsp bentonite clay
• 2 tsp arrowroot powder
• 1 tbsp aloe vera gel
• 30 drops various essential oils:
• 7 drops tea tree EO
• 4 drops eucalyptus EO
• 6 drops lavender EO
• 7 drops geranium EO
• 6 drop jasmine EO

How to mix:

• Use a ceramic or glass bowl
• Mix the coconut and emu oils together
• Add the bentonite clay and mix well
• Add the arrowroot powder and mix well
• Add the various essential oils and mix well
• Lastly, add the aloe vera gel and mix well
• Place the mixture in your container of choice. I prefer a small glass jar
• Place in the refrigerator and allow to set
• When ready to apply, use your fingers; rub gently into our underarms

Enjoy!

What's the Root Chakra About?

I attended a webinar a couple of weeks ago on the seven Chakras. Fascinating. I honestly believe that we can affect our selves and our energy.

Carol Tuttle's work with Chakras is enlightening and it is seemingly a passion of hers. I've 'liked' her on Facebook. Do the same if you so desire. You can also see her work at: www.chakrahealing.com.

Since the webinar, she has been sending email Chakra healing tips. The message I received today is for healing the Root Chakra.
