Cerra Be Aware, Act, Reflect products

SheSpeaks Cerra Be Aware, Act, Reflect™ sampler showed up at my door a few weeks ago as part of a campaign I joined through SheSpeaks.

The exclusive program kit included:

• Three Tea Bags in Grounded, Creative Energy and Gratitude varieties
• Creative Energy Sensory Oil
• Dissolving Notes and Pen
• Sample Sized Lotion
• Gratitude Keepsake Notes
• Cerra™ calling cards you may share with friends and family
• An informative Cerra™ Booklet and Journal

I was thrilled to receive this box of goodies. The tea was wonderful. The blends were created to compliment the intended action. My favorite was Creative Energy. The creative Energy Sensory Oil was clean and crisp and just the right scent for me. The lotion was from the same line and wasn't too greasy. I also enjoyed the note cards, calling cards to share with friends and the Cerra Journal.

My most favorite product was the Dissolving Notes and Pen. My kids had something like these a few years ago but they were for them to write a secret message and then eat the paper! This paper isn't to be eaten but it goes along the same premise.

My package was for the Gratitude line. I got my package right before finding out that my grandmother passed away. She raised me most of my life. I really had a lot of mixed emotions floating through my head and decided to pull out program kit to see if I could find a focus. This is when I decided to use the gratitude dissolving notes. I wrote the word confused on the thin, lightly scented soap paper. I'm not going into details but confusion was the top emotion that I decided to work on.

 Once you write on your paper you are to put it in a little bowl of warm water.  For some reason my pictures posted here upside down but considering I was confused I've left them that way! The purpose of this is to make your self aware of your emotions and release them, so you can pursue a more balanced life.

 be aware- How are you feeling? I was feeling confused.

 act- Write a note about how you're feeling; place it in the water.

 reflect- How well did this work?

For me, I did feel a strong amount of gratitude toward my grandmother for taking care of me my first 17 years of life. I knew that I was no longer confused about that. The act allowed me to focus and free my mind of clutter. I wasn't confused, I was just sad. The sadness was because I"m 40 something and her death really put an end to childhood. I guess this is what people feel like when their parents die. She was my parent and the exercise really made me feel better. I am at peace with her death because she knew that I was appreciative of all she did for me growing up.

I am a huge fan of these Cerra products. They came at the right time for me to review. Check them out and tell me what you think. I will be ordering some of the teas and dissolving notes for up and coming Christmas presents.
