When life gives you lemons.....

Sometimes, life isn't fair....that's just life, that's part of the overall experience, so what do you do when you've felt the wrath??? You change your perspective, and make it better. Eckart Tolle once said, " Take on every situation as if you've chosen it" putting yourself in this mindset, IMMEDIATELY changes any given situation.  So, one way to make things all better, is to pamper yourself, take a step back, a deep breath and prepare for what's ahead....so here's an easy way to do just that..

                                                    Lemon Sugar body scrub

Ingredients you'll need:

1. Approx. 1/3 cup of Olive oil
2. Approx. 2/3 cup of granulated sugar
3. juice of one lemon

some lemon zest( optional)


 That's it!!! 3 ingredients to transform the mundane into the magical!!!! Mix all of these together, store in an airtight jar and Voila!!!! You can use this anywhere on your body that needs a little extra pick me up!!!
  As always, I say measurements are approximate, because the beauty of DIY things is customizing it to your liking, you can make it thicker or thinner, if you like, or switch the sugar for Kosher salt( just beware of any small cuts, OUCH!) Just remember, to take a minute for yourself, everyday..even if it's only your morning shower........Now you're ready to take on the world. Go get 'em!!!!
