1/2 cup olive oil, divided

1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

3/4 teaspoons black pepper, divided

4, 6 oz salmon filets

1 lb broccolini, trimmed (regular broccoli works just as well)

1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Toss potatoes with 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, rub salmon with 1 tablespoon oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Add salmon to sheet and roast until potatoes are tender, 5 more minutes. Turn potatoes, add broccolini to sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Heat broiler and broil all until salmon and broccolini are browned, 2 to 3 minutes.

Wellness Practice: Crystal Healing

I used to think crystals were a little “woo-woo” because I didn’t understand them or how they worked. Over the past several years, though, I’ve learned more about crystals and their fascinating properties.

Garnet Crystal Gemstone

Here’s a quick summary.

All natural substances, including humans, vibrate at specific frequencies as a result of the movement of their atoms and molecules.

Crystals have unique frequencies, and are believed to interact with the body. Different frequencies can elicit different physical and emotional responses.

This week, let’s talk about Garnet and the effect its frequency can have on the mind and body.

Garnet is considered to be the crystal of courage, and is thought to stimulate energetic and emotional balance in the body.

Garnet is believed to influence the following:

Courage and determination
Passion & creation
Sense of safety, security, and protection
Feelings of being centered and in harmony

We infuse Garnet Crystals in two of our essential oil roller blends: Root Chakra Blend to encourage feelings of safety, security, protection, and groundedness, as well as in our Seize the Day Blend to promote energy and feelings of courage, determination, passion, and creation.

Live well. Be kind.
