Pamper Those Precious Feet

Those precious feet of yours are key players in your mobility ...... such a small area of your body keeping you in contact with Mother Earth,  strong and upright throughpit life.  Imagine for a minute  - they're working continuously from those very first few steps as a toddler through til whenever. Give a thought to your heels, soles and toes by treating them to a pedicure easiiy done with self-care.  Yes you can, all by yourself and often - no need to go to the spa.  Just think of the savings in time and money you could make with these easy few steps. .  

A revitalising foot scrub is so easy to conjure up and help you put a spring back into your step if feeling tired and overworked. Adding say lavender or peppermint are my favourite go to essential oils.  It's simply the same when it comes to looking after my feet with a revitalising foot scrub.     Using just a small amount of scrub, apply to dampened feet then soak away in a bowl of warm water. Ingredients you're likely to have already in the kitchen pantry anyway.  Best foot forward !

Start with coarse or fine sugar, your choice .... For the oil you can use avocado, jojoba, almond or any other neutral-smelling oil. (Olive oil could be a possibility but maybe on the heavy side - I use it sometimes). 

This DIY is just one of many delicious foot scrubs you can make to soften those hard skin heels. If you'd like a downloadable recipe then click this link


I help heart-centred driven people like you think more about growing food and the idea that the gardens which surround us can be a place not only to grow food, beautiful blooms to feast our eyes on and a place to unwind from the sometimes crazy world which surrounds us.   If we grow a little in the garden, we learn a lot and grow in ourselves !   If all this growing sounds like you, well hello !  How about signing up for my blog today?
