Cool & Calm: Herbal Hydration for Summer Balance

Cool & Calm: Herbal Hydration for Summer Balance

Join us for a refreshing event focused on finding balance this summer! Learn about the power of herbal hydration and how it can keep you cool and calm during the hot months. Discover new ways to stay hydrated while enjoying the season. The event will take place at 1018 Orrs Lake Rd, so mark your calendars and come ready to chill out with us!

In the height of summer’s heat, our bodies crave cooling, soothing, and restoration.
This month’s gathering focuses on herbs that hydrate, calm, and balance the system — supporting the skin, nervous system, and digestion through the warmest days of the year.

We’ll work with mint, lemon balm, cucumber, and other refreshing plant allies to create herbal remedies that help you stay grounded, hydrated, and at ease through the summer sun.

1. Cooling Herbal Hydrosol or Mist — A refreshing botanical spray to tone and cool the skin.
2. Rehydrating Electrolyte Tea Blend — A mineral-rich herbal infusion with mint, hibiscus, and citrus for hydration.
3. Soothing Sunburn or Bug Bite Gel — A gentle, aloe-based remedy infused with herbs for skin repair and calm.

• Hands-on blending with herbs and fresh plant materials
• Teachings on cooling energetics and herbal hydration
• A calm, nurturing environment — the perfect midsummer pause
• Herbal iced tea and community connection in the shade of Oakhenge’s gardens

“Even in the fire of summer, there is peace — found in the cool breath of mint, the shade of trees, and the quiet rhythm of rest.”

This is the seventh gathering in The Oakhenge Apothecary Year 2026 — a yearlong journey through herbal wisdom, creation, and seasonal attunement.
You may join for this class alone or continue through the full series.
