Blessed Balm: DIY Lotion for Emotional Healing

For a dreary day and a dark mood, use the strength of this olden unguent to release both mind and body. This desert plant produces a protective gel which works as both a sunscreen and a moisturizer. Combine the following oils with either four ounces of unscented body lotion, or two ounces of olive oil or sweet almond oil:

  • 2 drops chamomile oil
  • 2 drops neroli
  • 15 drops aloe vera gel
  • 6 drops rose oil

Shake the oils together and place in a corked pottery jar. Sit quietly in a room lit only by one blue candle after a bath and rub the balm gently into your skin. Pray aloud:

    Work thy spell to heal and nurse.

    Blessed balm, banish my pain.

    Harm to none and health to all.
