This hands-on, experiential workshop is an opportunity for you to learn how to make one of the most well known and celebrated herbal infused oils: Mugwort oil. Leave with a bottle of oil to start your body oiling self care practice this summer! 

Mugwort oil is a deep green herbal infused body oil widely known for properties supporting physical and spiritual well being. Mugwort is a moving herb that helps relieve the body of stagnation. Mugwort is also aromatic, and helps awaken the senses and bring forth a sense of vitality to the body during times of lethargy. Mugwort aids in the release of tension due to temporary ailments commonly associated with the menstrual cycle such as cramping, ovulatory pain, constipation, and abdominal bloating. Mugwort can also help stimulate the lymphatic system, and encourage healthy blood flow to occur around dull or damaged skin.

Many people misunderstand how to make herbal oils, making them in ways that result in lackluster oil that is not as potent as it could be.
