We’re often asked how JustBe came about, so here’s our story so far…


Just over 3 years ago, our founder Gail was working as a therapist on a retreat in Turkey, offering amongst other things Lomi Lomi (Hawaiian style massage), when she recognised that the guests simply wanted to just be – the state of being where you’re able to except yourself and others as they are without the need to change or do anything.  Unable to find a massage oil that she enjoyed working with, one of the guests suggested that she made her own and on her return that's what Gail did.  The first four blends were JustBe Loved, JustBe HappyJustBe Energised and JustBe Sweet - universal emotional states that she felt she and others would benefit from.  Three years later the JustBe range has developed into offering something for each of our five senses and includes 6 treatments (2 facials and 4 for the body that includes the Signature ritual JustBe Elemental that is exclusively available at Armathwaite Hall Spa).  Whilst Gail still offers one to one sessions, her main focus is training other therapists and making the products.  The entire range is still currently hand blended by Gail on her kitchen table in Edinburgh – a real Artisan Aromatherapist.

With Valentines Day just around the corner, we’ve launched JustBe Loved, Herbal Tea - a vibrant and delicate jumble of organic Hibiscus Flowers, Rose Petals and Jasmine to soothe mind, body and spirit.  Like a ‘hug in a mug’, this blend is ideal for when we need some love.


JustBe Well
As we strive to experience true vitality, we’d like share some easy to follow tips.  Whilst February is one of the key ‘Detox’ months, the cold weather and dark mornings can sometimes mean that it’s hard to keep our best intentions.  With that in mind, here are our top tips for this month:

Remove temptation where possible e.g. ice cream from the freezer.
Make every day a fresh start.
Focus on how you want to feel and make that your priority.
Remember it’s all about balance.  Everything in moderation including moderation!
Give yourself the benefit of the doubt; you are doing your best.




JustBe Recommended
Each month we’d also like to share some of our favourite finds.  Due to our love of coconuts (95%+ of the JustBe range has some form of coconut in it), we did think about calling this coconut corner so don’t be surprised if there’s a coconut theme running through this section!  Our first recommendation is CoYo a delicious and nutritious range of coconut yogurts.  We were fortunate enough to sample the entire range and are tied between mango and pineapple as our ultimate favourites.
