This Honeysuckle Flower Hydrosol was made from hand-collected blossoms from Ojai, CA. Each blossom is picked two-by-two, as that is how they grow on the vine. I then distill them in distilled water. After flowers are distilled, it takes some time for their elements to rearrange themselves properly, so I give it time to settle and age and smell beautiful again. 
Plants are constantly transforming themselves to help us and this particular vine is one I have a deep relationship with and visit almost daily during its bloom. I tell it what I am doing and ask it to grow in ways that will help people with its scents and properties. 
I also distill it with the moon cycle asking for help with focus or aligning our lives or letting go, depending on when it is harvested and created. 
It's a beautiful essence and wonderful for your skin. I also love to take it with me when I travel or keep it close when I cough or have asthma and after I spray it, I take a deep breath and it opens up my airways. When my throat is really tight, I spray it directly in my mouth and breath deeply.
It also helps with uplift and mood and can also assist in teaching someone how to be in community again or even couple as it grows in couples and community.
A steward of hummingbirds and bees, a childhood memory of pulling flowers off their sticky stamen and licking the sweet nectar. I am honored to get to work wit this hearty, tenacious vine.
