I’ve always loved homeopathic things like essential oils, herbs and pretty much all things holistic. If there is a natural remedy I’m all for it. Which is why I couldn’t wait to partner with @healthylatinalifestyle for our first Sage workshop. Hope you can join us there only 4 tickets left. #brunchandslaylife tickets available at www.brunchandslay.com
