Nourish – Vata Abhyanga Body Oil

Nourish – Vata Abhyanga Body Oil is a rich, warming botanical oil created for daily self-massage and traditional Ayurvedic abhyanga. It softens and replenishes dry skin while inviting a deeper sense of warmth, comfort and grounded presence.

Prepared slowly over three days, Nourish begins with a concentrated herbal decoction and a freshly blended herbal paste. These preparations are gently cooked into sesame, sweet almond, apricot kernel and St. John’s wort-infused olive oils until the water has fully evaporated and the essence of the herbs remains within the oil.

Ideal for:

• dry or rough skin
• cooler seasons and windy weather
• times of stress, depletion or feeling ungrounded
• evening self-care and slowing-down rituals
• anyone wanting to bring the nourishing practice of abhyanga into daily life

For a traditional Abhyanga ritual, apply a small amount of oil to dry skin before bathing. Massage with long, unhurried strokes along the arms and legs and circular movements around the joints, abdomen and chest. Give a little extra attention to areas that feel dry or in need of care.

Allow the oil to rest on your skin for 10–20 minutes, then step into a warm shower or bath. Rinse gently and pat dry, leaving a light layer of nourishment on the skin.

For everyday moisture, apply a smaller amount to warm, slightly damp skin after bathing.

Use daily or several times each week as part of a grounding self-care ritual.

A little care: For external use only. Patch test before first use. Avoid the eyes, mucous membranes and irritated or broken skin. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Use caution in the bath or shower, as oil may make surfaces slippery. Protect clothing and linens from oil staining, and follow safe laundering practices for oil-exposed fabrics. Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat.
