To make the Lavender Hinoki Peace Mist, we soak lavender buds in high proof organic alcohol for a week to turn it into a fragrant lavender extract, and then add Hinoki (Japanese Cypress) essential oil to blend the fragrance of lavender with the calm of walking through a wooded forest. I’ve then added Rose Quartz, Amethyst and Moonstone gem essences to make you feel loved and protected and nurtured, Black Tourmaline gem essence to ground you, and Clear Quartz gem essence to supercharge this mist.

Mist your crown of head, third eye, throat (external), heart, palms and soles of feet (if accessible) 5x a day to feel a sense of inner calm and peace.

Ingredient Deep Dive

🌲Lavender: Lavender has traditionally been used to invoke peace, rest and relaxation. In European herbal magic traditions, it is common used in love spells, to lift depression, to purify and protect against the evil eye. By soaking the lavender buds for a week in high proof alcohol, we distill more of the botanical and magical properties of the plant into the mist, helping create for you a greater state of calm and peace. We also add lavender essential oil to the mixture to further enhance the qualities of lavender here.

🌲Hinoki:  Hinoki is also known as Japanese Cypress, and is widely loved in Japan. Hinoki wood is used to manufacture many Japanese bath and spa products. The terpene components of Hinoki essential oil have been argued to be deeply restorative and deeply healing, according to the Japanese research field of “Shinrin Yoku”, which argues that simply hanging out in the forest doing absolutely nothing is deeply healing to all psyches.

🌲Rose Quartz Gem Essence: I selected Rose Quartz for the following reasons: is calming for the mind, assisting one in releasing worry, fear, anxiety and past emotional trauma. It clears the emotional body of ego-driven patterns and can help pone feel more open to receiving and sharing love, compassion and kindness.

🌲Amethyst Gem Essence - Amethyst is commonly prescribed by energy healers to help soothe anxiety and to bring peace and calm. It helps the user to feel safe and protected. When used to stimulate your inner intuition and wisdom, it also helps with releasing negative attachments. Amethyst can be a powerful addition to your healing energy rituals.  

🌲Clear Quartz Gem Essence: Clear Quartz is known as the "master healer" crystal, probably because it enhances the intentions and work of everything around it. When worked with personally with meditative practices, it helps too instantly boost energy, to filter against negativity and to transform critical words and harm. It helps to increase protective qualities of crystals, and to provide a feeling of safety, thus aiding relaxation and sleep.

🌲Black Tourmaline Gem Essence: Black Tourmaline crystals are ideal for psychic protection for anyone who must work or live in challenging places or circumstances. Carrying or meditating with one of these stones can keep one’s auric field clear of imbalance, even in the presence of destructive energies. Black Tourmaline is also one of the most gentle of Black protective crystals.

🌲 Moonstone Gem Essence: Moonstone is ideal for you to tap into your divine feminine energy, intuition and inner peace. It is an excellent talisman for the inward journey, and meditation with it can take one deep into the self.
