Coffee Break for Tired Feet

In salute to all those hard working feet out there, bodylish will include a STAND ON LOTUS flowering foot fizz with every order until May 15!

800px-Roasted_coffee_beans[1].jpgWhew, what a weekend. Who knew that mid-April in Minnesota means head to the garden? You’ve got to make hay when the sun is shining, as my ancestral farmers proclaimed, and we listened. A weekend of great gardening weather wreaks havoc on a body after a Minnesota winter and it’s time to give my feet a COFFEE BREAK.

The feet are often forgotten. They work tirelessly for a body, and get very little tender loving attention. Here’s a perk that’s sure to work, and you likely have everything you need.

Gather these things:

  • 1/4 cup sea salt
  • 1 tbl freshly ground coffee beans
  • 1 tbl ground vanilla beans
  • 1/4 cup oil (olive or almond)
  • 1 pot of coffee, at room temperature
  • whipped cream

Then just follow these steps:

  1. Mix salt, coffee and vanilla beans and oil in a bowl.
  2. Pour the pot of coffee in a basin and add the whipped cream.
  3. Place feet in the basin and soak for about 10 minutes.
  4. Rub feet and calves with a scoop of the salt mixture, concentrating on callused areas.
  5. Rinse feet with warm water, dry them lightly with a towel, and follow up with a hydrating moisturizer.

The caffeine in the coffee reduces redness and swelling, and the salt, coffee grinds and vanilla beans – along with the lactic acid (in the whipped cream) - are all natural exfoliants.

The Secret to Happy Living

For the past several months, I have made the conscious choice to go media free.  I have given up television, radio, and print media to focus on the “micro life” of everyday living.  I have made some remarkable discoveries.  I think I have found the secret to happy living.

Cowgirl SpritzDiscovery #1:  I find that I can hear my own thoughts much more clearly, and in many regards, I feel as though my life has slowed to the point of awareness of each passing moment.  I feel alive and eager.

Discovery #2: I feel more relaxed and happy … free to roam like a cowgirl out on the range, appreciating the simple pleasures of a starry night and bright dawn.

Discovery #3: I have found more satsifaction in each day. I am unencumbered by thoughts of politics, violence or “things” that I want but don’t have. I find I have positive connections with others and more time for meaningful interactions.

Discovery #4: Most important of all, I have realized that everything I really need is mine already.  Each day I choose my path for the beauty and pleasure it provides. 

Yes, it’s true … all this from tuning out the words of others and tuning in the voice from within. From where I stand, this is the good life.  But, I’m always looking to improve.  At this moment, one way to make this good life better, is to share the goodness with others. 

In honor happy living, every internet order of $25 or more in the month of March gets a FREE bodylish COWGIRL Spritz.

Live HAPPY TODAY!
