Winter Walk Balm for Restored Hope and Winter Skincare
Winter Walk Balm, for when you want to connect to the majesty of snow-covered evergreens and the youthful curiosity of your childhood.
My littlest Graeme came up with the idea for this balm. He loved the scent of his Frasier Fir so much that he collected all the little needles in a jar. We added dark red wild Rosehips, giant chunks of Scotch Pine resin, local golden beeswax (like from across the street!) and a new balm was born!
His ability to be fully present in his body and in the moment, his wild unending curiosity, his openness to learn, his utter joy at the daily- all of his beautiful energy is swirled around in this mix. I can feel it and I’m so happy to share it with you. The only rule is that you MUST cup your hands over your nose and breathe in the luscious scent before fully rubbing it into your hands and body.
Rosehips, Fir, and Pine Resin have all been used generationally for skin healing and protection against the harsher elements. Not only will this balm bring soothing to your skin, but the forward-looking Fir, the protective and renewing Pine, and the love-giving Rosehips all offer themselves as friends to walk the winter path with you.
What’s a ritual balm? Of course you can use any of my balms for skin healing, nourishing, and protection. But they have also been crafted to be used in ritual. Apply your balm before quiet times, after bathing, or before rituals to prepare yourself for the moment and invite in that specific energy. You can also use the balms to anoint candles and apply herbs, just like you would a consecrating oil.
