Johnny's Winter Scavenger Hunt Feature

📍Dropwise Aromatherapy | 586 Prince St

Make sure to head to Dropwise Aromatherapy & see Dawn! We are certain she will help you solve what activity Johnny has been up to! Visit https://trurolongjohn.ca/scavenger-hunt/ once you have discovered it.

Today we are sampling "Being Well Tea" drop in while out walking on this beautiful day to have a taste.

While you are here, have a look at our Tumbled Hearts and our Heart Chakra blends (available in Roll On or for Diffusion). A great gift for your special someone on Valentine's Day.

Drop by today for a sample of "Flower Power" Tea from Cochrane Family Farm. In the diffuser we have one of our winter blends - "Fresh Winter Day". It is cold outside but warm and relaxing in the shop.

Drop by to see what we have available. So many local small businesses under one roof.

Slight delay in opening this morning. I should be there by 11:00.

Let's take your Valentine's day game to the next level! We're talking chocolates and roses 2.0 - Rose and Cocoa Essential Oils. These smell like a dream on their own but also blend beautifully with other oils.

For the ultimate rose experience, try a Rose Hydrosol!!

But wait, there's more! Our collection of tumbled stones is perfect for Valentine's Season. We have a whole treasure chest of beauties like Garnet (pictured), Rose Quartz, Moonstone, Rhodonite, Carnelian and Lapis Lazuli (plus a collection in the shape of a heart). Get ready to wow your special someone with these gems!

This comforting blend of Cedarwood, Cinnamon and Orange became a customer favorite almost overnight. If you don't have a diffuser, a drop or two on a tissue will do the trick as well.

Calling all knitters/ crocheters!

One of the honours our volunteers have is to gift lapghans* to patients on the Palliative Care Unit at the Colchester East Hants Health Centre but our inventory is running low.

Many people in our community have made and donated hundreds of these soft and colourful treasures over the years for use on the Palliative Care Unit in our local hospital.

Lapghans are a modest covering for your lower body when being transported in a wheelchair, and provide warmth when used as a shawl or additional bedding over your feet. They are cozy and homey, made by a caring heart from our community.

For some family members, the lapghan becomes a cherished item. It may be one of the few personal belongings that was used by their person at the end of their life. It may be the only item from their last days that you can take home as a remembrance of them. Some choose to place the lapghan over the back of their persons favourite chair or across the foot of the bed, a reminder of their precious time together at the end of life.

We would also like to hear your lapghan stories. What happened to this small blanket after your person died?

If you are interested in making lapghans for distribution by Colchester East Hants Hospice Society volunteers, please contact us for details at (902) 893-3265 or [email protected]

Requirements:

• Must be a minimum of 3 feet X 4 feet
• Those who are quite ill or reaching the end of their life tend to have very sensitive skin so lapghans must be made with very soft yarn

*A lapghan is a knitted or crocheted blanket sometimes referred to as a lap robe.
