Indu (nectar of the Moon) Lotion(cont.)

The several essential oils in the lotion offer many benefits for the skin as well as for the emotions and the psyche. The three main essential oils in Indu are geranium, bergamot and lavender.  
  
The geranium oil is excellent for aggravated skin such as acne and it is excellent for uplifting and balancing the emotions. It is a non sedative that helps relieve weariness and depression.

Thelavender is calming in several ways, it quiets and soothes the mind   and is excellent for relaxation , insomnia , impatience and irritability. Lavender can aid in the calming of eczema and other skin conditions.

The Bergamot is also an uplifting essential oil for the emotions and supports vitality. It keeps the mind feeling refreshed.   

The essential oils are added to the unscented lotion which contains all natural ingredients such as deionized purified water, jojoba oil, extract of rapeseed oil, & derivatives from corn. After the oils are added, the lotion is shaken by hand while a mantra, such as om namah shivaya is sung. A mantra is a powerful word or phrase, sacred syllables which form a nucleus of    energy that can bring about the experience of peace....transcendence. Literally mantra means,` “the thought that liberates and protects”.   

Thus the blend of oils & mantra makes Indu the perfect lotion when relaxing or winding down for sleep;   or as an all over hydrating , uplifting aromatherapy lotion that   gives you a reminder of peace during your hard working day.
