Sanctuary is a warm, nurturing blend with soothing notes of ylang ylang, earthy vetiver, and gentle rose, created to offer a sense of comfort and calm. The notes in Sanctuary may be helpful in moments of anxiety, mood swings, and emotional overwhelm. Ylang ylang is known in aromatherapy for its ability to support peace, soften feelings of anger, and offer a sense of safety and ease. Vetiver helps ground us when we feel disconnected.

Made with Vetiver (India), Ylang Ylang (Madagascar), Lemon Balm (Melissa), Rose (Morocco), Pink Yarrow essence, Bleeding Heart essence.

How to use our Aromatherapy balms: Wear it on your skin and carry your favourite scent with you through the day. Gently massage on your wrists, temples, neck, hands or feet and experience their aromatherapeutic properties. These balms double as a nourishing skin treatment or can be a simple palm inhalation ritual: massage a small amount into your hands, cup your hands, breathe deeply, and let the scent anchor you.

Aromatherapy inhalation is a powerful way to self soothe. Because scent travels directly to the part of the brain that processes emotion and memory, its effects can be felt almost instantly.

Blended into a base of organic shea, jojoba, kokum butter and beeswax.

The notes in Sanctuary may be helpful in moments of anxiety, mood swings, and emotional overwhelm. Ylang ylang is known in aromatherapy for its ability to support peace, soften feelings of anger, and offer a sense of safety and ease. Vetiver helps ground us when we feel disconnected from our bodies or the earth. Known as the oil of tranquility in Sri Lanka, it’s also traditionally used in India to scent homes, inviting in a calming atmosphere.

Rose, revered for centuries for its scent and its healing properties, adds a deep, nurturing element to this blend. It has long been connected to love, softness, and care.

This blend was created during a time of personal grief, with the intention of offering support to others moving through their own healing journeys. It’s designed to be a companion through difficult emotions, a scent to bring into your space as you carve out a sanctuary for healing and rest.

When used in balm form, this blend leaves a long-lasting scent on the skin, helping you carry the warmth and depth of the earth with you.
