    Thank you so much for sharing these. I live in Canada, and the winters can sometimes make you feel pretty low. An all natural mood booster would be perfect for the dead of winter.

    These all sound like great products. I have a lot of allergies to flowers so I am not sure if the Lavender would bother me.

    I love Lavender so much & most of my day to day usages have a lavender mix to them. I have heard a bit about Kava Kava from my cousin, but other 2 are pretty new to me. Will give a try though.

Raise your hand if you love snacks. 🙋‍♀️I Raise your hand if you love snacks. 🙋‍♀️I discovered yet another subscription box called City Snack Pack, which features snacks from a different city monthly.  This was a lot of fun to unbox, you guys. And what was really super cool about this one was it featured a product from my favorite show...Shark Tank!
