✨Spring is here and Summer is around the corner! SO I made a delicious citrusy, floral body butter consisting of Shea and Mango Butter. This butter is Non-Comedogenic which means it won’t clog your pores and will leave your skin soft and moisturized. It’s light enough to use it as a hair moisturizer and on your face and won’t leave you feeling greasy. Grapeseed Oil and Rosehip Seed Oil are wonderful for reducing wrinkles, scars, treating eczema, and regenerating damaged skin cells.✨
Ingredients:
2/3 Cup Shea Butter
1/3 Cup Mango Butter
3 tsp Grapeseed Oil
1 tsp Rosehip Seed Oil
¼ tsp Vitamin E Oil
10 Drops Bergamot EO
8 Drops Geranium EO
2 Drops Lemon EO
2 Drop Grapefruit EOInstructions:
1. In a double boiler melt the Shea and Mango Butter on medium heat.
2. Remove melted butter and add the remaining ingredients.
3. Using an electric hand mixer, whip the butter for several minutes until it starts to look like whipped cream. I like to place the mixture into the freezer to help it thicken faster.
This makes about 8 oz. worth of butter. I placed them into two 4 oz. jars.
Enjoy!

I never thought I was mentally exhausted

I don’t know how to stop this. It is maddening.
This is very similar to generalized social phobia. Those with the disorder think of themselves as being inadequate, unlikeable and socially inept. They fear being rejected, criticised or ridiculed and would rather avoid most social situations. The reasons can differ may be related to emotional neglect and peer group rejection in childhood and/ or adolescence. Symptoms may include the following:
- Hypersensitivity to rejection/criticism
- Self-imposed social isolation
- Extreme shyness or anxiety in social situations. (However, the person still has a strong desire for close and meaningful relationships)
- May avoid physical contact with others (because it is associated with emotional or physical pain)
- Painful feelings of inadequacy
- Poor self-esteem
- Intense feelings of self consciousness
- Self hatred or self-loathing
- Mistrust of others
- Emotional distancing/ fear of intimacy
- Highly critical of their ability to relate naturally and appropriately to others
- Do not feel they can connect with others (although others may view them as easy to relate to)
- Intense feelings of inferiority.
In more extreme cases, may suffer from agoraphobia.
Treatment approaches include social skills training, cognitive therapy, gradually increasing exposure to social situations, group therapy and, occasionally, drug therapy. Gaining and keeping the client’s trust is essential for progress to be made.
1. See it as a process, not a one time event. When you make a change in your life, there are lots of small adaptations to be made. It takes time to process and adjust to those changes – so be patient with yourself.
2. Change the way you think about change. Try to see it in a positive light. Even although there are lots of negatives and challenges, you’re likely to benefit in the end.
3. Face your feelings, and especially the negative ones. If you don’t, they’ll simmer beneath the surface and make it harder for you to cope. Feelings are neither good nor bad. They just are. If you feel bad, you feel bad!
4. Notice any areas where you have control as that will help you to feel less trapped or boxed in.
5. Pay attention to your thoughts and attitudes – and choose to look for the positives, and to frame uncertainties in a hopeful way.
6. Stay in touch with people who care, and can act as a support in this time of change.
