Time for a COMPLETELY different post than what I normally post.

But this had to happen!

Because it is my way of doing this shit (pun intended).

So you know when you’ve done your number two?

Done a poop.
Dropped a deuce.
Made an offering to the porcelain throne.
Or whatever other euphemism you use to describe taking a shit!

Original is by artist Adam Lucas/Hanksy but I find this here

And for some reason, it stinks.
Not like a sweety little stinky stink.

But like a PROPER stank.

Like holy hell, what the devil is rotting in my system to produce such foul odour?

Yeaaaa, you know what I mean

So out pops those horrible toilet deodorants that smell like warm lavender while you are sitting in a field of roses… or some stupid shit like that.

And the whole toilet (or bathroom) gets filled up with this icky sweet chemical smell that makes you want to gag.

And it sticks in your clothes so when you walk out of the bathroom, EVERYBODY knows that you just took a massive dump.

Yea, not great ey?

Which is obviously a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE TO HAVE!!

But I’ve discovered something that you can replace your dump-deo with and it works WAY better, smells a hell of a lot nicer and extra bonus points, it’s natural!

I am talking about Palo Santo
Otherwise known as Holy Wood.
Which is literally what it means in Spanish.

Now this gorgeous smelling wood has many healing properties (so they say) but is especially known for it’s grounding and clearing powers.

Now if you don’t speak Spiritual, then let me explain.

Basically, when you set Palo Santo ablaze, it will bring you into your body and get rid of any ‘negative’ energy that may be in you or around you.

You may not believe this but that’s fine.

But the BEST thing about this wood when it comes to our matter is that it masks any nasty pesky smells!

And it works wonderfully.

It’s like the smoke absorbs the horrible smell and transmutes into pure goodness.

It’s just great.

Nowadays, you will ALWAYS find a piece of palo santo and a lighter hanging out in my bog.

Just cos it’s become somewhat of a ritual.

Take a poo and then light the palo.

And BAM! Away goes all your problems and insecurities!

Letting my Palo Santo smoke
(I did not take a poo before this. I just made this to show you what it looks like!)

Hehe okay, I am overreacting obvs

But in all seriousness, it’s damn good.

Try it out!

I do not think you will be disappointed unless you HATE the smell of it.

Which to me, it smells like home.

It has a very fresh earthy smell to me.

WHY DOESN’T SMELL-O-METER ALREADY EXIST?

I am sure you can buy at your local airy fairy shop.

Definitely online somewhere.

Oh yeah and now that I think about it, it’s a fuck you to the huge companies who try to market their chemical soup of toilet-deodorant which CANNOT be good for you!

WIN-WIN.

Here’s to taking poops.
Here’s to naturally getting rid of the smell.
Here’s to Palo Santo.

PS. I don't want to offend anyone with my Trump Poop image that I found. It's just very funny.

BIG love,

Ashley
