#11- A Simple Foot Soak
Topic: Relaxation Hints

Find a bowl or pan large enough for your feet. Place marbles in the bottom and fill with warm water, add about a half cup of Epsom salts and a couple drops of your favorite essential oil (or use fragranced bath salts).  Roll each foot over the marbles or just soak for several minutes.

This provides an easy and quick way to pamper yourself and relieve some tension.  I have used this idea and found that making it a family affair gives you more time to enjoy it.  My daughters soaked their feet with me and thought it was such a treat that after 30-minutes(of quiet awe) I had to convince them it was time to stop.  Not only does this allow you to do something relaxing for yourself but you can start showing others how important it is to take care of yourself by taking some 'time-out'.

When you stop by the store be sure to pick up the FREE Relaxation Hint Grab Bag (while supplies last!).  In it you will find some of the items used in this Relaxation Hint.

Welcome!

As the owner of The Whispering Willows I wanted to thankyou for your interest in the store.  My goal is to help you create a relaxing environment in your own home.  Because while we all love being pampered at the spa, it's getting harder to find the time and money it requires.  As someone who would love to be pampered much more than funds allow for I opened The Whispering Willows.  I found that when I was trying to gather things for use in my own home I had to travel to several stores to put it all together and could never quite find the fragrances, items or inspiration I would have liked.  My goal is to be able to provide you with a one stop shop for all your needs (at a reasonable cost), whether you are planning an evening of self indulgence, a girls spa night or trying to cram 10-minutes of 'me'-time into a world of utter chaos.  I believe that relaxation should not require more money than our budget allows for or more time away from our already micro-organized families.  I believe it should be a part of our everyday lives, whether it is the drop of oil you put on in the morning, the candle you light while showering or the lotion you apply at your desk.  Relaxation is healthy and makes you a healthier person who feels better.

We carry a variety of items to meet your needs (scented candles, bath gel, lotions, bath salts, salt scrubs, loofas, relaxation music, self help books and aromatherapy products)  What I want to stress to everyone here is that we are a new and growing store.  I currently carry the above mentioned products in a handful of fragrances.  As customers ask for different fragrances our supply will grow.  I want to carry what you want and need, not what the supplier tells me everone is looking for.  

I hope you will browse our main site or better yet stop in and see what we can provide for you!
