Aromatic Water Mists
Someone said that “scent is like poetry to our nose, an ancient language that subtly influences mood.”
Below are some of my favorite aromatic spray recipes that I have used to delight clients and students in our Premier Spa Indonesia Course.
Put all flower essences in a very fine mist aromatic sprayer. I like the glass blue ones with the white tops with an ultra-fine mister.
Asian Waterfall:
This is one of my favorites. Anytime I need a quick reminder of what it’s like to be back along the rivers and uplifting waterfalls of South East Asia, I mist this in the air, and I am there … ahhhh !!
3 drops Neroli (a little expensive but well worth it)
3 drops Geranium
3 drops Lavender
Thai Waterfall:
I have been to Thailand 7 times to study and bring back the many secrets of spas that abound in this lovely country. I share many of these ancient health and beauty secrets in our Best of Asia Spa Course at Body Wisdom. Whenever I want a quick pick-me-up and remember my time in the “Land of Smiles,” I spray this over my body. Clients absolutely love it at the end of a massage as a quick freshener and a delightful wake-me-up .. :))
3 drops Lime
3 drops Lemongrass
3 drops Ginger

I agree Rhett – I also use aromatic mists a lot for myself and my massage clients and they love it. They’re also effective in cold/flu season – keep a small bottle close by so that you can ‘clear the air’ in ‘your space’ whenever you need to. I will direct the students in the current aromatherapy class to your posts for all the wonderful and inspiring recipes – thank you.
