Details

Everything your family needs to get through summer naturally — bug protection, nervous system support, and mineral replenishment. In one kit.

Summer is hot, loud, overstimulating — and it is quietly stealing your family's minerals. You don't need 10 different products. You need this kit.

Every summer, the same thing happens. The bug spray comes out and it's full of DEET. The kids get bit anyway, the skin gets irritated, and the cortisone cream goes on like clockwork.

Meanwhile, the heat is spiking cortisol, depleting magnesium, and your whole family's nervous system is running on empty by 3pm. The car rides are loud. The kids are dysregulated. You're just trying to get to the end of the day in one piece.  This is not a you problem. This is a mineral problem, a nervous system problem, and a 'we've been reaching for the wrong tools' problem

The Summer Resilience Kit is built around one idea: your body has ancestral tools for handling summer. Herbs that repel insects. Minerals that fuel your nervous system. Botanicals that calm the chaos — from the inside out and the outside in. We just put them all in one place

The Systemic Approach (Non-Negotiables)

  • INVISIBILITY FROM TICKS + BUGS: Ancestral Bug Spray - DEET-free insect repellent made with plant-based botanicals. Spray on exposed skin and clothing before outdoor. Reapply every 2-3 hours. Smells like an herb garden and protection, not a chemical plant.

  • ITCH BE GONE: Bug Bites Rollerball Itch=gone. Skin=healing. Roll directly on bites for fast-acting relief without cortisone. Soothes inflammation and supports skin repair naturally. Works on mosquito, ant, and other insect bites.

  • SUPPORT THE STRESS RESPONSE: Because summer is loud and their nervous system knows it. Apply Adrenals Rollerball to stomach area before bed or on sides of the neck & spine when chaos is climbing. Supports the body's stress response at the root - not just the symptoms.

  • CALM THE AIR: Zero screaming (Results may vary.) Calm Hanging Diffuser - designed for exactly the kind of car ride you're picturing right now.

  • REPLENISH MINERALS: Joyful Magnesium Spray for when summer steals their minerals. Transdermal magnesium spray. Spritz on after bottom of feet after sun exposure, post-swim, or before bed. Replenishes the mineral your nervous system burns through fastest during summer heat.

🌿 What's Inside the Kit:

⏱️ When to use (as needed):

  • Morning: Spray Joyful Magnesium on bottoms of feet to replenish magnesium used throughout the night.
  • Bugs: Spray Bug Spray on every 2-3 hours as needed or roll Bug Bites Rollerball on bug bites/stings, (not that we would forget the bug spray).
  • Mid-Afternoon Meltdown: Joyful Magnesium on stomach and Adrenals on spine and sides of neck.
  • Before bed: Spray Joyful Magnesium on the bottoms of feet. Roll Adrenals above bellybutton.

Zero effort. All season. Give it 7-10 days. Their body will show you what it's been missing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the bug spray actually work?
Yes — and here's why it works differently than DEET. DEET confuses an insect's sensory receptors. Our Bug Spray masks the body odor signals that attract insects in the first place, using plant-based botanicals that bugs find repellent. Reapply every 2-3 hours for full coverage, just like any repellent.

Q: Is this safe for kids?
Yes. All products are formulated without synthetic fragrance, parabens, or harsh chemicals. The Bug Spray and Bug Bites Rollerball are appropriate for kids 2+. The Adrenals Rollerball and Magnesium Spray are suitable for the whole family. Always patch test first if your child has sensitive skin.

Q: Why not just buy the products separately?
You can — but the kit saves you [X]% versus buying each individually, ships together, and gives you a complete protocol rather than five products sitting in a drawer. It's also the fastest way to try the full seasonal system and see how they work together.

Q: Can I use the magnesium spray on my kids?
Yes. Transdermal magnesium is gentle and well-tolerated by children. Apply to legs or stomach, avoid broken skin or right after shaving. If your child is new to magnesium spray, start with 2-3 sprays and build up.

Q: How long does each product last?
With daily summer use: Bug Spray 4-6 weeks (depending on outdoor time), Bug Bites Rollerball 60-90 days, Adrenals Rollerball 60-90 days, Calm Diffuser 3+ months, Magnesium Spray 6-8 weeks with daily use.

Essential oil use 101: skin application is intentional

The reason oil blends are best used on the skin is because the skin acts as a natural gateway allowing oils to penetrate and work their magic from the outside in.
