A Father’s Day with Romance and Soul

Contributed by Bonnie M. Morét

Life is never a bowl of cherries, but fathers always seem to carry the weight of world on their shoulders. While mothers are often praised for their love and dedication, dads are there trailing somewhere not too far behind, usually pushing the cart or carrying the shopping bags. They’re the ones who pick up the pieces when everything falls apart. With their tools, they fix the roof, mow the lawn and put together the flat-pack IKEA furniture. Is there anything a dad can’t do?

Economic hard times and out-of-work fathers mean buying his favorite “big ticket” toy is out of the question this Father’s Day for many families, as the extra cash is needed to run the household. Of course there are other ways of celebrating fatherhood and one very important way is indulging him with escapism. According to Dr. Judith Orloff, author of “Emotional Freedom,” when life is more stressful, we need an escape even more because it is a healthy and positive coping mechanism that helps us find an oasis of calm.

The perfect way for mom to create an oasis for dad is with Soulstice Natural Products. For under $30, the all natural products are the ultimate accoutrement for giving him a long massage and drawing a warm bath for the two of you to relax in. Soulstice Natural Products’ mood enhancing, aromatherapy candles and bath salts will bring dad’s sexy back with scents like Leather, Voo Doo and Love Potion #9. As you soothe his emotions and create a state of deep relaxation in his body, dad will be wishing everyday were Father’s Day!

In addition, you can cast an enchanting spell with Soulstice Natural Products’ New Orleans line. Creole, Café au Lait, N’awlins and Mardi Gras King Cake will have dad thinking he’s sauntering the streets of the Big Easy and you didn’t have to pay the airfare to get there.

Mirroring dad’s giving soul, a portion of Soulstice Natural Products’ proceeds is donated to restore New Orleans’ natural levee system and for keeping the arts in public schools. For more information or to place an order, visit www.soulsticenaturalproducts.com.
