Gourmet Bath & Beauty Products

MoonDance Botanicals is a fabulous resource for women and for men who know women (wink, wink to all the guys reading this). MoonDance is owned and operated by herbalist Tonja Reichley.

Tonja and I worked together at an integrative pharmacy a couple years ago. Since then she has opened her own shop and handcrafts gourmet bath and body products in her beautiful, peaceful boutique in Denver, Colorado. Stop in if you are in the neighborhood, 301 W. Cherokee Ave. She only uses organic and natural ingredients and runs her business with the utmost integrity and healing presence.

I love her products and frequent her shop regularly, the lavender facial cleanser, (she grows the lavender in her back yard) and the oatmeal, poppy seed exfoliater are two of her many products in my daily regime. If you don’t live in Denver you can order products here.

These are great pampering gifts for yourself as well as girlfriends, sisters, moms and brides-to-be! Tonja has regular classes in her shop, including spa parties, gratitude yoga circles, soap making, homemade eco-friendly cleansers to name a few.

You can travel and study with Tonja in Ireland in September 2008. This will be her third group trip focused on Celtic herbs and spirituality. Among other things you will:

• Explore the sacred sites of Burren, Tara and Bruna Boinne
• Meditate
• Experience a Celtic sweatlodge

If I made a list of my top 5 Healthy Discoveries, MoonDance Botanicals would absolutely be on that list!
