The most calming blueberry smoothie you'll ever have
/
This blueberry lavender smoothie is super satisfying and fulfilling plus you get the added wellness benefits of the lavender.
Many are famiiar with lavender as a fragrance added to beauty and cleaning products but it offers so much more than just a nice aroma.
100% pure lavender essential oil is a wonderful addition to my wellness regimen and I make sure to get it in with my morning protein shake.
Lavender can promote relaxation, work with the body to fight allergies and reduce excess mucus and support the nervous system in dealing with headaches, the blues and anxiety. It can also promote digestive health by working against gas, bloating and diarrhea. Topically, lavender helps support skin healing from burns as well as itching and eczema.
No wonder lavender is so popular. I just love it.
