Mmmmmm…
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of sunshine on your face and a warm summer breeze swirling around your body, as you enjoy countless hours walking around barefoot in the grass (or in the sand) breathing in the fresh summer air.
And who can resist dangling their fit in the water as they watch the sunset on a warm summer night?
Or maybe you love nothing more than starting a warm summer morning by taking a full body dip in a pool, lake or the ocean. Heck, a simple sprinkler in the yard will even do in a pinch! (That tends to be my reality anyway. LOL!)
If only there was a way to recreate the feeling of summer all year long.
Well, there kinda is…through smell.
A lot of people turn to scented candles to create desired smells in their home. But that is problematic, because burning candles can be highly toxic and pollute the air in your home (you can read all about it HERE).
No worries, there’s a simple and health-enhancing way to create the scents of summer in your home, office and vehicle!
