It's happening! Wild Acorn Apothecary has launched, and these beautiful essential oil blends that I have loved and used for so long as my own are now available to you too. This past weekend I debuted three Ayurvedic dosha balancing perfumes and body oils. If you haven't read my last post on Ayurveda and doshas you may want to start there to learn more.
In a nut shell, Ayurveda or the "Science of Life" is recognized by many scholars as the world's oldest healing modality. Foundational to Ayurveda are the three energies or "Doshas" including vata, pitta, and kapha. These doshas are composed of the five elements: Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth. In the physical body, vata is the subtle energy of movement, pitta the energy of digestion and metabolism, and kapha the energy that forms the body’s structure. Everyone has a unique blend of these three doshas and Ayurveda helps to foster balance of mind, body and consciousness through its principles.
With that understanding, I'd like to introduce you to DHARA, VAYU, and SURYA. These blends have been mindfully formulated to promote the balance of your predominant dosha. But can also be used and enjoyed for the sole purpose of they just smell so good - and happen to also be good for you! Based in 100% organic jojoba oil, they are suitable as a perfume, aromatherapy, skin conditioner, hair/beard oil, and may also be used for their therapeutic benefits. For example, when out of balance the flighty cold-natured Vata may be soothed and comforted by the warm grounding botanicals of DHARA. Read on to learn more about each blend...
