Vegan Perfumes at the Sydney Vegan Market

Video

Hello natural beauties! I hope you’re all well and fabulous. This week I had a stall at the first Sydney Vegan Market in Marrickville in Sydney.  I loved meeting beautiful people and chatting about botanical perfumes, essential oils and being vegan. I had planned on doing some filming during the day to talk about my perfumes but it was so busy I didn’t get a chance.

I was happy to showcase my range of perfumes that correspond with my book Revelation! Most people who ventured into my “scent tent” were very receptive to new ideas about personal scent, and how it can be transformative. Yes!

 

 

I manage to talk about all the products I’ve brought with me EXCEPT my beautiful perfumes. Next month that will be my goal – a walk through of the perfume range.  And here’s a link to my shop so you can buy the perfume of your dreams from the comfort of your couch

 

 

Until then, keep popping back to see me and next week I’ll post the link to a free ebook I’ve created.

Thanks, Suzanne.

Hello natural beauties!. What does the Fountain of Youth mean to you? It’s time to introduce the next botanical perfume, immortality, from my perfume range called REVELATION.

From the Fountain of Youth chapter in my book, I have created immortality the botanical perfume.

immortality 9ml roll-on bottle

 

“There is a fountain of youth: it is in your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life, and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.”

Sophia Loren, Actress

 

 

To embrace the Fountain of Youth, a legend present in many cultures, It’s not just about anti-ageing creams, botox and facelifts. It’s about a multi-dimensional approach to life which includes;

The physical aspects – eating well, being vibrant and healthy, maybe exercising, using great skin care (aromatherapy based of course), and minimising the use of chemicals in your life. This means getting rid of all the yucky cleaning chemicals as well as synthetic perfumes and synthetic fragrance in washing products too.

The mental aspects – release stress through techniques such as meditation and yoga, helping others, positive self-talk and using essential oils.

The spiritual aspects – learn to look past the wrinkles in the mirror to the oneness that connects us all. By using essential oils you will be able to improve your intuition and come to rely on it more, resulting in a more holistic approach to life.

Or just use this beautiful perfume I have created ….

 

“Molecules dissolve and pass away, but consciousness survives the death of the matter on which it rides.”

Deepak Chopra

From the Space Cleansing and Protection chapter in my book, I have created purity the botanical perfume.

purity 9ml roll-on bottle

 

“Clutter-clearing is modern day alchemy”

Denise Lin, Author

 

 

 

Clearing and cleansing your space can be fantastically liberating and freeing. Once all the extra stuff is gone, cleaning with essential oils can take reclamation to a new level. Even just cleaning with oils can make you feel lighter, as you energetically release the old negative emotions and patterns and move into a new mind space. I call it purification, and it definitely applies to your chakras and energetic body as well as your home or office.

Clear out the old, cleanse your space and body with essential oils, and protect your personal aura with intention and this gorgeous perfume I’ve created.

 

“Man flows at once to God when the channel of purity is open”

Henry David Thoreau, Poet

 

So why not flow with the energy of the universe, with a pure heart and mind?

From the Affirmations and Positive Self-Talk chapter in my book, I have created positivity the botanical perfume.

positivity 9ml roll-on bottle

 

“An affirmation opens the door. It’s a beginning point on the path to change.”

Louise L. Hay

 

Positive affirmations almost seem out-dated, but for someone in a bad mental or emotional space they can help to shift focus. And sometimes that’s all that is required and all that can be mustered up.

Affirmations simply help you point yourself in the right direction of where you would like to be. It is very important when using these simple linguistic tools, that you conjure your energy and emotions to meet the affirmation so you can project an wholistic state to the universe.

Using essential oils along with your affirmations can amplify them to the next level and help you feel a bit more special and happier along the way. And being kind to yourself is sooooo important and something we often forget to do.

So why not use this modern perfume to take you to a positive space?

 

“We are often our hardest critics, so loving and accepting yourself, and speaking to yourself with kindness and love is extremely important.”

Suzanne R Banks   “Revelation! Reveal Your Destiny with Essential Oils”

From the De Stress chapter in my book, I have created flow the botanical perfume.

flow 9ml roll-on bottle

 

“If you ask what is the single most important key to longevity, I would have to say it is avoiding worry, stress and tension. And if you didn’t ask me, I’d still say it.”

George Burns, Actor, Writer

 

 

 

Stress seems to be a popular state of being – particularly in the western world. Sometimes people live under constant pressure and stress and become so used to it that they assume this state is normal. It becomes chronic. Ongoing stress isn’t paid much attention until a negative situation arises,  like health disorder is diagnosed and someone is forced to change their life – and often all too late.

Using essential oils can help relieve stress in seconds by simply opening a bottle and having a whiff – a change of focus in seconds!

Flowing with life in all its good and bad incarnations can help us become more malleable and less resistant. Resisting your troubles and fighting against bad things can maker it all a lot worse.

Don’t resist – just flow!

“Seek not that the things which happen should happen as you wish; but wish the things which happen to be as they are, and you will have a tranquil flow of life”

Epictetus, Greek Philosopher

Chill baby.

“When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears”

Anthony Robbins

harmony 9ml roll-on

 

“Gratitude and abundance go hand -in- hand.”

Suzanne R Banks      Revelation! Reveal Your Destiny with Essential Oils

 

Abundance, of course, does not only apply to money. It could mean you require more time or positivity in your life. Using essential oils will help change your focus away from lack and into a better feeling place.

 

“Essential oils are a fantastic medium for feeling better about things, and when you feel better it’s easier to be grateful; and when its easier to be grateful you will find more things to be grateful for and then you’ll feel even better about your situation, and see the abundant nature of the universe in every little thing.

Me – again

Attune to the abundance of the universe.

From the Spirituality chapter in my book, I have created oneness the botanical perfume.

“You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher than your own soul.

Swami Vivekananda

oneness - the full size 9ml bottle

oneness – the full size 9ml roll-on  bottle

 

” The Egyptians referred to the nose and other parts f the brain as the “pathway to the soul” and in the detailed artwork some are seen to be inhaling the enchanting fragrance of the blue lotus of the Nile. It seems as though this fragrance was able to influence their mind and thoughts to reach an altered state of consciousness, to connect with the Gods. Essential oils work in the same way…”

Suzanne R Banks “Revelation! reveal your Destiny wth Essential Oils

 

 

In this chapter I discuss the important part meditation plays in our lives. Not only does it have positive physical, mental and emotional aspects, but it also helps us improve our intuition. Essential oils can amplify our meditation and help open our intuitive capacity, and a botanical perfume based on essential oils will be the perfect companion to your spiritual practice. Throw it in your handbag for those earthly moments when you need a little help – driving, screaming kids, freaking out – and things like that.

“To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders”

Lao Tse
