NEW:
Benchmark Thyme
Nature's Gift is proud to make available the United
States' first batch of Benchmark Thyme, sometimes called
Thyme 4 Seasons.
This unique blend of four ethically
cultivated Thymus varieties has been standardized to give
the powerful germ-killing effects of Tea Tree, Red Thyme,
etc. along with the gentleness of Thyme Linalol and other
"skin safe" essential oils.

information, and research results on this powerful new Thyme blend,

results of testing against MRSA!)
Lavender "Fine" ... Population; organically grown from seed,
never cloned. Certified Organic. Grown at a lower altitude (1100 meters) than our "Hi
Alt" Lavender, which is grown at over 1400 meters. A wonderfully
aromatic and energetically powerful lavender oil. Lavendula
angustifolia.
A new specimen to us, and delightful. Supplies are limited.
Shades of violet and purple, with touches of brown or white
marble this healing stone.
Traditionally Amethyst is said to have prolific healing powers
which can be characterized as purifying, pacifying and transitional.
Amethyst has the ability to transform lower energies into higher and
acts as a healer at all levels of mind, body and spirit.
Amethyst is said to calm and protect the mind. It soothes those
who have engaged in constant rigorous mental activity. It has been
deemed "nature's tranquilizer" by many healers because of it's
effectiveness in relaxing not only the mind but also the nervous
system. Those who wear amethyst jewelry and who have been
recommended to wear this stone for healing purposes have done so
because of its tranquil qualities and it's ability reduce negativity
and alleviate anxiety.
Just in time for Father's Day we bring back our favorite Three King's
Soap. Our rich skin-pampering Goats Milk soap, designed to nurture
his skin, not dry or abuse it, fragranced with the oils of the Magi.
Frankincense, Myrrh, and just a wee hint of Rose Otto create a synergy
to nourish any skin type, with a deeply resinous unisex aroma.
If his skin deserves the same pampering you give your own, but he
doesn't want anything "girly", floral or feminine.... Order him our
Three Kings soap packaged with one of our White Pine Soap Savers.
(Save $2.00 by ordering the set.)
For years I've searched for the "right" formula to add our precious
Sandalwood oils for the men in our lives. Finally we found it! With no
heavy waxes to clog pores or too many rich oils to leave his skin
greasy, this nutrient rich cream softens and prepares skin for shaving
without causing irritation or dryness. In addition, it penetrates the
upper layers of the skin with ingredients that hydrate, protect against
free-radical damage, regenerate collagen, balance sebum production and
reduce any inflammation to maintain the skin at maximum health.
Excellent for any skin type. Our human guinea pigs loved the shaves
they got, and the way their faces felt after shaving. We loved the way
they smelled.
Usage:
(Couldn't be simpler!) Moisten skin well with warm
water, apply a generous amount to face and neck and shave as usual.
An aromatic, moisturizing after shave splash designed to soothe and
tone his skin. To be used after shaving for healing skin relief.
Contains, among other goodies, Calendula, Lavender, Witch Hazel, Aloe,
Glycerine, a trace of alcohol for quick drying, and, of course, lavishly
scented with Sandalwood essential oils and Sandalwood Absolute.
The first of the year our Sandalwood Splash was reviewed on a Shaving
Forum (Badger and Blade). The consensus: "And once again, the
stuff set to work immediately calming my skin. So thus far, from a
purely skin-healing perspective this seems to be a wonderful product.
The choice and combination of essential oils used really works well to
calm, soothe & moisturize irritated skin."
Our rich, emollient shower gel, scented just for him
with Indian and Sri Lanka Sandalwood essential oils and Sandalwood
Absolute. In a special hanging tube, convenient for any shower.
With all the rain we've had this spring the mosquitoes are thriving. We
are keeping them at bay by slathering on
SkeeterBeater
whenever we are going to be spending time outdoors. Save 10% on
either the Aloe-based gel or the body oil. Four ounces of either.
The third essential for our summer activities -
Nature's Gift Sunburn Soother - our most healing and anti-
inflammatory essential oils in a base of Jojoba (to moisturize) and Aloe
(to put the fire out.)
A whole shipment of diffusers, from different suppliers arrived after
we had posted this page. (Just in time for the newsletter.)

MIO Diffuser all on our Aromatherapy Accessories page.

The 'm' technique®

We've had the Video, but the DVD has been out of stock for some time
now. They've just arrived. Read about, and order, on

LAST CALL
We don't ship our beloved
Baby Bottom Balm or our
Shea Soufflé
during the heat of summer - which may come early here in the midsouth.
If you may need some between now and next Autumn, this is the time to
order. (One of my son's just called and reminded me to put aside a big
jar for his little one...and one for his nephew!)
MOMS is a
non-profit, non-denominational organization whose purpose is to
improve maternal/child health and maternity outcomes through
education and service. They bring training in midwifery and healthy
prenatal and birthing care to the poorest parts of the world.
For years we have been on their mailing list, reading of the work
that they have been doing in Sierra Leone, and planning on
supporting them. The time is now. A quote from
their web page:
Why Sierra Leone?
At MOMS, we serve
where little or no quality care is available. Sierra Leone is
terrifyingly poor, isolated, and misunderstood. It is also
beautiful, with strong people who dream of a better life. The
government is working hard to reduce corruption and improve the
infrastructure. We spend hours on each trip consulting with
officials to build a healthy relationship based on mutual respect.
Our capabilities match the needs of the people. We are skilled in
training birth attendants and providing support to clinic staff. We
are experts in designing effective instructional material. We have
a deep appreciation for African culture.
Because we are small, we are also nimble. We do not need expensive
facilities, infrastructure, or paid staff, but work with skilled and
dedicated volunteers, who need only basic supplies for educating and
serving the women.
So we work where the women are afraid of pregnancy and birth, facing
up to 2% maternal mortality rates and 45% infant and child mortality
rates.
Nature's Gift has traditionally donated 2% of
every Wednesday's gross sales to a selected charity. The
link above allows you to participate in supporting the various
causes we have supported. To see "where the money has

Accolades: I am just beside myself...One of my first Aromatherapy
Mentors, Sylla of The Atlantic Institute of Aromatherapy wrote:
Marge thank you so much, I got mine today!! I had
to read it from cover to cover. How exciting, what an awesome little power
packed book for anyone to have close at hand. You covered it all (especially
love the safety notes in red, very clear!) and you give some good recipes and
personal advice. What a nice thing to see - I couldn't put it down, handy to
hold, nice pictures and it's pretty too!! Thank you for putting this together -
it should be a great help to others to get properly started or to have as a
handy reference. Good job, well done!

"My copy came yesterday and
it's gorgeous, well written, and filled with
information (as expected). Knowing Marge, I did expect this to be a
delight to the senses, and was not disappointed. Hard cover, nice stock,
color pictures...
Lots of info on a good number of oils, with recipes and how-to's included.
Nicely done, Marge!"
Others have written:
What a WONDERFUL book!! Took a quick glance thru it and I
am re-organizing my weekend to give me time to sit down and be totally absorbed
in it. WooHoo! (So glad I got a couple extra for gifts.)
Dear Marge
Thank you for your lovely book. It is beautifully done! I am so proud to know
you.
Love Jane
Hi Marge,
Just got my order including your new book and it is spectacular!!! I was
expecting a paperback kind of thing that I could drag around w/my bag of oils
but it's sooo beautiful, the pictures are stunning, it's really an "art" book
but at the same time it's so useful, the best of tips off your website - you
really did a great job! Karla
Again, thank you so much for your book!!! You
have put a lot of work into this. What a great resource for people
starting out in aromatherapy!! I can't wait to share it with
others!! Debi
Thank you so much for
sending my special copy of your book. It is lovely !! I
especially like your personal touches..blends, everyday uses, your
experiences, hints and even when you explain that certain oils pour very
sloooowly. To me, that speaks of an intimate relationship with the
oils not someone just writing another "how to" book on aromatherapy.
CONGRATULATIONS !!!! xoxo Kathy
