10 Ways to Supercharge Your Shower
When you shower, you get the circulation flowing. Showers should be quick (best to not linger in the heat that can drain your energy) and very deliberately a time of self-love. As with all of feng shui, your positive intention matters! You’ll want your shower to be streamlined, organized, packed with products that are botanically-rich and naturally nourishing for your skin and hair. Start finishing up and recycling all your old products, moving toward a more curated collection of only products you truly love.
To start upgrading your morning shower ritual: start by sprinkling a few drops of lavender essential oil in the corners of your shower.
This will help set a truly blissful mood. You can choose any essential oil (I like rose also for it’s heart-opening powers). Essential oil will have a profoundly positive effect on your brain chemistry – scent is very powerful – so feel free to play around and find your best oil or blend.
Affirm your beauty from the moment you enter the bathroom!
