PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Herbal Zen, a wellness company specializing in hand-batched aromatherapy goods, today announced the launch of its newest product – the Winter Walk Shower Steamer – along with the release of its holiday gift guide.
Shower steamers are like bath bombs but for the everyday shower. These aromatherapy tablets release essential oils into the air as they dissolve, transforming any shower into an at-home spa-like retreat.
The Herbal Zen’s new Winter Walk shower steamer is a seasonal blend tailored to awaken the senses and calm the mind with scents from trees, spices and herbs. Made with essential oils of menthol, pine, cedarwood, basil, rosemary and clove, this earthy blend was inspired by the experience of walking in nature during late fall and winter.
“For many of us, the past year and a half of the pandemic reintroduced a love of walking, a simple act of self-care that has powerful benefits to mental and physical health. This walking comeback is one of the influences behind our latest creation, Winter Walk,” said Jason Donahue, Founder of The Herbal Zen. “While it isn’t possible to bottle the feelings you get from a great walk, the intent of Winter Walk is to evoke pleasant memories of a brisk stroll through the forest.”
With the addition of Winter Walk, The Herbal Zen now offers 10 aromatherapy blends targeting different needs and moods – from stress relief and relaxation to congestion and headaches, to name a few. Its product variety is one of the reasons the company is seeing record sales this holiday season.
“Self-care doesn’t require an expensive getaway, lavish spa day or deviation from your everyday schedule. Rather, it’s a practice that stems from the intentional daily rituals that bring us joy and a sense of feeling grounded, no matter how small,” said Donahue. “Adding one of our shower steamers into your existing routine is easy, affordable, and useful to all genders, scent preferences, and ages from pre-teens to seniors. This universality makes them an ideal gift of self-care.”
For the first time, The Herbal Zen has issued a gift guide pairing the best blends for different gift recipients:
