Amy Galper is a New York City based shiatsu practitioner who founded Buddha Nose, Ltd. in the spring of 2004 to encourage her mostly female clientele to “be still and breathe.†Recognizing the connection between the energetic dynamics of shiatsu, a Japanese form of bodywork based in Traditional Chinese Medicine, with the essential oils of aromatic plants Amy created handmade beauty products in her kitchen to remind her clients that beauty is directly affected by our feeling good.
Several years ago, Amy experienced a “healing crisis†and was compelled to consider her illness as an opportunity to shift her perspective and make changes in her life. Changes included letting go of habits, relationships and lifestyle choices that were negative and unhealthy. One year later she went into remission.
I sorta stumbled across Buddha Nose online one day, and I just knew it had to be featured here on Prissy Green. I love what she stands for, and the way she brings it across to the Buddha Nose clients. We could all take a page from her healing success and let go of all things in our life that are unhealthy, or at least start that movement!
I sampled Buddha Nose’s Meditation Bath Salts. The scent is pretty mild, but I love to 
take a nice long hot bath and these were truly a blessing for those stress buster days. Some of you may not even realize you are doing some sort of meditation in your bath/shower. I know a lot of you have kiddos and that might be the only time of day you are by yourself. Chances are you are in some small for meditating.
I know I always do, I wash my hair, wash my skin, and then get to sit back and relax. It is one of the only places I can fully relax and let go, and I know these salts helped further my meditation too. The Salts do have a very mind calming and relaxing scent even though it is subtle, I think subtle scents are very important for this exercise.
The Meditation Bath Salts are for those who enjoy meditating in the tub. Soaking can offer us a great opportunity to think and self-reflect. The combination of the warm salty water and the clear and earthy aroma of the oils, inspire us to relax and feel good. This blend of salts deeply quiets us, making us feel comfortable and comforted. All of the essential oils in this product are extracted from plants that have been traditionally used to deepen meditation and encourage self-reflection. Ingredients include the essential oils of Frankincense, Cedarwood, Sandalwood and Ho Wood, blended into dead sea salts from Israel and red salts from Utah.
Buddha Nose has Bodhi Balms, Bodhi Sugar Scrubs, Lip Balms, all sorts of salves for all your needs, and an “I Booster Spray”, an immune boosting spray, essential oils and also a Heart Spray. She also has different types of Bath salts other then the Meditation, really wonderful array of products for your physical and mental health.
