Waking Up To Flowers

Rose Petal Bath

For more of a calming effect, avoid using vibrant colour roses and use light-coloured ones instead. You can also add roses to your daily beauty routine. For example, rosewater toner, body oil, bath bombs or soap.

Drink Them! (Yes, drink them!)

It may come as a surprise to you that there are a lot of flowers that are actually edible. Go ahead and add organic flowers (unsprayed food-grade) roses, lavender, chamomile, herbs etc. to your infused water or even hot tea! Although it makes it very appealing, it is also incredibly delicious too! You can even find flowers in infused syrups made with jasmines and elderflower.

Essential Oils

Flowers essential oils are also a great stress reliever.
