Skin Alchemy

Look and Feel Divine

S kincare is used widely around the world, as the health of the skin is a big part of our lives. The success of this book and the work involved is due to thousands of skincare consultations. I have considered the overall well-being of my precious clients at my ‘Salus’ Clinic in terms of emotions and stress, and by evaluating the ingredients in their daily use of products in achieving skin health.

‘Salus’ is a Latin word meaning health, well-being and being of sound condition complement, and this perfectly describes the mission and mantra of my clinic. I chose the name of my business, Salus Beauty & Day Spa, because a large part of what I do is about good skin health. To this day, Latin terms are used in medicine, beauty and cosmetic ingredients.

My experience and continual research, through extensive travel and studies of global cultural traditions, have been instrumental in creating many of my treatments and products, making my products unique, and earning me a reputation as a leader in the field.

I am sharing my personal knowledge with you, so that the power of Skin Alchemy can help you to unlock the secrets of nature and to learn how to best look after your skin. By selecting quality ingredients for the products you use for your skin - which is the biggest organ in the body – you will also help the environment and future generations.

I know that this book will assist you in achieving your highest potential towards reaching that radiant authentic beauty that, in the past, might have only existed in your dreams. In addition my support will help you to understand your skin.

The sage wisdom of the giants on whose shoulders I stand, like my grandmother Koka, who, through her genius, planted the seed of vast healing traditional knowledge, which compliment years of research I acquired in my journey of holistic healing through the skin.

It is my pleasure and privilege to contribute on a holistic level with Skin Alchemy and I am grateful and humbled in the knowledge that the readers have the opportunity to make profound changes in their lives.

With any success, we want to be free of fears, tensions, worries, unhappiness and toxins. In addition to success we seek inner peace to make our life complete. Since English isn’t my first language - my native tongue is Serbian - it was an interesting undertaking to write this book in English, however, I was determined to write it so I could share my vast knowledge with the world. I agree with Anthony Robbin’s statement that Determination is the wake-up call to human will.

Many of us experience roadblocks in our life. So how can we deal with such situations?

The answer is quite simple. If we are inspired from within we will have the courage and determination to exercise persistence until we accomplish the goal that burns within. That means we must have brainstorming solutions to the inevitable roadblock and countless challenges that life gives to us so that we can grow and, achieve the most positive outcomes of present reality. Throughout our life there will be times where there are things and situations we cannot control so the ability to be happy and flexible is a choice that can contribute greatly to how you take action.

My grandmother, Marija (Bobic) Grubic, always said: When we leave this beautiful planet we haven’t learned everything.

I believe it is great to break through barriers in our life and learn with love. This leads to freedom and freedom leads to true
