🌿 I have the most exciting news… and it’s happening right in my own backyard!

For almost 12 months now, I’ve called the Mornington Peninsula home. And to celebrate? I get to run a hands-on Natural Cleaning Workshop right here - thanks to our amazing Mornington Peninsula Shire.

✨ Here’s the really good bit:
Because the council is subsidising this event, you can join me for a fraction of the normal price - think around 1/3 of what I usually charge for a hands-on make-and-take workshop. 🙌

📅 When: Saturday 2nd May, 1 - 2.30pm
📍 Where: Eco Living Display Centre, Mount Martha
💰 Price: Just $25–$40 (all materials included!)

You’ll roll up your sleeves and craft six beautiful, no-tox cleaning products to take home - everything from a multi-purpose spray to a botanical linen mist. Pure essential oils, plant-powered ingredients, and a whole lot of fun.

This is the same workshop I’ve delivered for councils and global brands - but now it’s for my neighbours, my community, and you.

Spaces are limited (hands-on means small groups!), so don’t sleep on this one.

Create six natural cleaning products that are gentle on your body, your home, and the Earth.

✨ Something magical is fizzing its way to Sydney next week… ✨

I’ve just finished hand-making a fresh batch of Loo Love Fizz & Scrub Tablets - and yes, that satisfying fizz is exactly what's needed. 🧼💨

These little heroes are part of my Natural Cleaning Like a Pro workshop – and next week, I get to bring them (and five other plant-powered recipes) to a very special team building session in Sydney for the incredible team at Nielsen, through WorkBlis. 🌏

Why? Because Earth Day is every day – and what better way to celebrate than rolling up your sleeves, blending clean ingredients, and creating something kind to our homes, our health, and our planet? 💚

👀 Here’s the thing: I’ll be making these live in front of the participants… but because they take 4–6 hours to dry, I’ve brought a finished batch along too. So they get the best of both worlds: the how, and the wow.

Sydney, I can’t wait. 🌊
And to the Nielsen team – get ready to fizz, scrub, and sparkle. ✨

Sleep Part 2 – Essential Oils as Nightkeepers

Now we turn to the plants.

In Part 2 of our sleep series, we reveal exactly which essential oils support deep rest — using our 5 KEYS system.

The takeaway is simple:

🌙 Settle is your primary bedtime key
🌙 Balance is your secondary evening key
🌙 Purify and Rejuvenate are for earlier in the day
☀️ Energise is for sunrise only

We also introduce our three sleep-specific blends: Sleep, Surrender, and Rest — with a full nightly ritual to carry you into deep restoration.

Comment below: Do you already use essential oils at bedtime? If so, which one? If not, which one are you most curious to try?

We will add you to our enews list. Your rest matters here.

Sleep Part 1 – Science & Circadian Rhythms

There is a window between 9pm and 1am that determines everything about how you wake up.

Miss it, and no amount of sleeping in will ever feel like enough.

In Part 1 of our sleep series, we explore why your body's master clock (the SCN) is perfectly aligned with the Earth's rotation - and how blue light from screens tricks your brain into thinking it is still daytime.

No essential oils yet. Just the science of why modern life has forgotten how to rest.

Comment below: What is your current bedtime routine? Do you honour the 9pm–1am window, or does life get in the way?

To receive Part 2 (essential oils as nightkeepers) straight to your inbox - plus future blogs, workshop news, and plant wisdom - DM us the word ✨ REST ✨ with your email address.

We will add you to our enews list. No spam. Just seasonal invitations to deepen.

No phones. No distractions. Just this. 💞

A mother and daughter, sitting across from one another, eyes locked, hearts open. In between them? A small bottle of perfume - one that the daughter just spent the last several minutes creating, drop by drop, with her mother’s essence in mind.

This is the heart of our BOND Workshop.

Not the blending. Not the bottles. But the pause. The seeing. The quiet, sacred act of saying “I know you. I admire you. And this is what you smell like to me.”

That’s the memory that lingers long after the last drop is bottled.

Our next BOND Workshop will be held in 2027. Spaces will be very limited.

Because some moments are too beautiful to rush. And some connections are worth bottling.

"I don't know what I'm smelling, but it smells good!" 😄🌸

This was the delighted, honest reaction from a daughter after her mum handed her a roller blend she had just created - just for her.

And this is the quiet magic of our BOND Workshop.

When someone who knows you deeply - your laugh, your strength, your quiet moments - sits down with over 80 essential oils and asks, “What smells like them?” something beautiful happens.

They don't follow a recipe. They follow their heart.

The result? A scent that fits you perfectly. Even if you never would have put those notes together yourself. Because it was blended with love, intention, and the unique lens of someone who sees you.

That's what makes this workshop so special. Not just the perfumes you take home, but the ones you give.

This is a memory you can still create. Our next BOND Workshop will be held in 2027 and spaces will be limited.

💞 Be the first to know when 2027 dates are released.

Come for the scents. Leave with a story and a scent that smells like you, through the eyes of someone who loves you.

🌸 One week from tomorrow, a room in Brunswick will be filled with the soft scent of essential oils, laughter, and a quiet kind of magic.

In that room, parents and teens/young people will sit side by side - not on phones, not distracted - but fully present. They’ll be inhaling scents and asking “Does this smell like you?” And then, in a moment that always steals my heart, they’ll present the perfume they created for each other.

That’s BOND.

It’s not just a perfume workshop. It’s a morning designed to create something you can’t bottle: a shared memory you’ll both carry long after the scents settle.

If this has been on your mind, now is the time to book. Spaces are limited, and we’re just over a week out.

📅 Sunday 12th April | 9:00am – 12:00pm
📍 Artocracy, 435 Sydney Rd, Brunswick

You’ll each create three natural perfumes (spray, roller, balm) and experience the heart-led activity of blending a signature scent for one another - inspired by what you admire most.

No experience needed. Just an open heart and a curious nose.

We've covered how to store your oils and which ones to keep away from the sun. Now let's talk about how to apply them safely to your skin. 🧴

Welcome back to The Oil Insight Series. We're wrapping up our SAFETY MODULE with Tip 3: DILUTION 101.

What is dilution?
It simply means mixing your essential oil with a carrier oil (like jojoba, or sweet almond) before applying to the skin.

Here are your 3 key takeaways:

1️⃣ ALWAYS DILUTE FOR TOPICAL USE
Even "gentle" oils like lavender or tea tree can cause sensitivity if applied undiluted over time. Carrier oils act as a buffer, delivering the essential oil safely without overwhelming your skin.

2️⃣ DILUTION = SAFETY + BETTER RESULTS

Protects your skin: Prevents irritation, redness, and sensitisation.

Slows evaporation: Carrier oils help the essential oil absorb at a steady, deeper level rather than evaporating off the surface.

Stretches your oils: A little goes much further!

3️⃣ USE THE RIGHT RATIO
For healthy adults, a safe starting point is 1–3% dilution.

1-2% = For sensitive skin, facial applications, or daily use

2–4% = For general body massage, targeted blends

Quick Reference:

1% ≈ 3 drops per tablespoon (15ml) of carrier

2% ≈ 6 drops per tablespoon

3% ≈ 9 drops per tablespoon

Pro Tip: Invest in a small glass roller bottle (10ml) and use this simple formula:

1%: 2 drops EO + 10ml carrier (safe baseline)

2%: 4 drops EO + 10ml carrier

3%: 6 drops EO + 10ml carrier

What's your go-to carrier oil? Jojoba, almond, or something else? Drop it below! 👇

P.S. Next up, we're moving into the APPLICATION METHODS MODULE - diffusers, rollerballs, sprays, and more. Any topic you'd like me to cover first?

Myrrh (Commiphora madagascariensis) – Madagascar

Not all oils are equal. And then there is Myrrh.

Steam-distilled from wild-harvested resin, this ancient oil carries a deeply grounding and restorative presence, inviting stillness, release, and resilience. Like Frankincense, these oil fit into our Autumn collection.

Where It Comes From

Our Myrrh is sourced from the spiny forests of Madagascar, where Commiphora madagascariensis trees have adapted to harsh, arid conditions for millennia, their resin harvested by those who understand its profound value.

Why Madagascar?

🇲🇬 The Terroir: The island’s unique, dry bushlands and limestone-rich soils produce a resin distinguished by its high content of furanosesquiterpenes. This is the chemistry responsible for Myrrh’s powerful anti-inflammatory and skin-regenerative power.

🌍 Wild Harvested: These trees grow as nature intended - untended, unmodified, uncultivated. No irrigation, no interference. Just resilient trees offering their resin at the precise moment of peak vitality from one of the world’s most unique landscapes.

👐 Traditional Stewardship: Our harvesters work with communities who understand the tree’s rhythms. They take only what the land can spare, ensuring these precious, near-threatened species remain for generations to come.

You hold the fingerprint of Madagascar’s spiny forests, ancestral knowledge, and a connection to a botanical treasure distinct from its Arabian cousin.

Key Constituents

• Furanoeudesma-1,3-diene (30-40%) – Anti-inflammatory, skin-regenerating
• Curzerene – Analgesic, antimicrobial
• Lindestrene – Grounding, supportive of emotional release

What This Means For You

✓ Soothes inflammation and supports skin repair (scars, mature skin)
✓ Encourages emotional release while anchoring a sense of inner steadiness
✓ Deepens meditative states and quiet reflection
✓ Offers resilience for compromised or mature skin
✓ Ideal for emotional trauma recovery and creating sanctified space
✓ Perfect for rituals of grounding and release

How To Use

🕯️ Diffuse during meditation, prayer, or quiet reflection to anchor presence and encourage release. Try 4 drops Myrrh + 2 drops Cedarwood.

✨ Blend in serums at 1-2% for mature skin, scars, and to encourage resilience.

🤲 Pair with Frankincense for the ultimate sacred, grounding duo: one to bridge, one to anchor.

🌹 Combine with Rose or Helichrysum in a scar serum for physical and emotional healing.

Sacred serum recipe: 5 drops Myrrh, 3 drops Helichrysum, 2 drops Frankincense in 15ml Jojoba oil. Apply to old scars or wrists for emotional resilience.

Important: Avoid during pregnancy. Always dilute before topical use (max 2% for adults). Keep away from pets.

A sacred anchor, bottled - from the spiny forests of Madagascar to your hands.

🌸 In under two weeks from today, something magical happens.

The scent of pure essential oils. A table laid out with over 80 ingredients. A quiet moment where a parent and teen create or young person create a perfume for each other - not because they have to, but because they see each other.

That’s the heart of BOND: Parent–Teen Scent Connection Workshop.

If you’ve been meaning to carve out time with your young person (12+), this is your gentle nudge. Our next workshop is coming up fast:

📍 Artocracy, 435 Sydney Rd, Brunswick
📅 Sunday 12th April | 9:00am – 12:00pm

Together you’ll craft three natural perfumes each (spray, roller, balm) and experience the highlight of the morning: blending a signature scent inspired by what you love and admire about one another.
