My name is Maria Koropecky and I am announcing the release of my new book, “How to Throw a Home Spa Pajama Party the Homespunspa Way.”
Let me tell you a little bit about my background. In May 2001, I started my own business called Homespunspa, a party-planning service that teaches spa-style recipes for sleep and beauty using natural ingredients.
I believe Homespunspa fills an important role in our busy, hustle and bustle, fast-paced and stressful world. We all need to take some time out for ourselves and put our feet up, to stop and smell the roses — and the lemon verbena — and the pine trees.
The Homespunspa Mission is to form a circle of neighbours and together make a metaphorical quilt covered with wondrous colours and textures based on the principles of comfort, folklore, goodwill, harmony, creativity and humour so we can all sleep better at night. And I think this philosophy shines through in “How to Throw a Home Spa Pajama Party the Homespunspa Way” a book which encourages people to transport themselves to a relaxing spa without leaving home.
“How to Throw a Home Spa Pajama Party the Homespunspa way” is a great reference tool — filled with ideas and recipes — all designed to soften skin and inspire sweet dreams — and is perfect for bridal showers, birthday parties and girls' night in.
Let me show you a quick recipe from my research and my book. I'm a big fan of taking baths to relax and here is a recipe for BATH SALTS that people can make for themselves or give as gifts.
- 2 cups Epsom salts — to ease aching limbs, draw toxins from the body and reduce stress.
- 2 cups baking soda — This ingredient soothes itchy skin, clears blemishes, softens bathwater and eliminates foot odour.
- 1/2 cup sea salt — is relaxing when added to baths, is a nutritious exfoliator and improves condition of skin.
- 1/4 cup cornstarch — this lends a particularly silky and luxurious feel to bathwater, making skin feel smooth and soft.
- 2 TB almond oil — This carrier oil is good for normal, dry and mature skin types and has cleansing, moisturizing and conditioning properties.
- 1/2 tsp vitamin E oil — to act as a preservative, prevent scar tissue and to reduce anxiety.
- 20 drops essential oils — Choose according to your preferences, fragrance families and therapeutic effects. Today, I'm going to go with 5 drops each of lemon, grapefruit, mandarin and ylang ylang.
Method: In a large bowl, combine Epsom salts, baking soda, sea salt, and cornstarch. In a separate jar, shake together essential oils, almond oil, and vitamin E. Pour the liquid drop by drop into the salt base. Gradually mix and blend until any clumps disappear. Store in jars.
Manner: Add a few tablespoons of salts to your bathwater when you bathe. That's all there is to it — a really easy way to relax and simplify your life.
I have found hundreds of ideas just like the bathsalts in my research that help people pause and take care of themselves — both physically and spiritually. And I would love to share my knowledge with others.
