In these uncertain times, anything that can help reduce some of our natural anxiety is top of the list. Life & Style Wellness Award winner Forest Remedies products do just that, and more! Not only are these products worth buying, 5% of the purchase price is donated to the Jane Goodall Institute. Feel-good, do-good — that’s the new 2020 goal.
Take Deep, Frequent Whiffs
Breathe It’s hard to find a product more balanced in the do good, feel good space than the Wonders of Africa Essential Oil Kit. Not only are these oils sustainably-sourced from the African continent where Jane Goodall does her conservation work, they are packaged in 100% recycled Bee Saving Paper (a plantable paper made from lemongrass and poppy seeds). So Jane-genius.
Happiness is An Upward Spiral
We love Jane Goodall by Forest Remedies Hand Sanitizer sprays for doing what they should — kill harmful germs and bacteria — while being 100% plant based and made with 100% organic sugar cane ethanol. Plus, they come in 100% recycled plastic and are made in the USA. Do we need to say more?
Available by the end of 2020 at forestremedies.com and in stores in two convenient, on-the-go sizes in two fragrances — $4.99 for 2 oz.; $6.99 for 4 oz. Geranium and Rosemary
