March Favorites

When I am looking for new books to read or new makeup to try, I always look online to read reviews or watch a youtube video review. I love that places like sephora, target, and ulta will let me return products I try that just don't work for me, but I don't like the time wasted with trips back to the stores to have to return something.

Easy DIY Essential Oils Rollers

If you are relatively new to using essential oils then you will love this post and video! This was something that was so simple yet I didn't think about doing it until after I had used oils for a few months. Mixing my own roller bottles was so helpful to me and allowed me make the most of my awesome starter kit! I loved being able to keep the bottle of Thieves that came in the starter kit in my kitchen but also have roller bottles with diluted theives in each of my daughters' rooms which was so convenient. So...watch the video and then check out the roller bottle "recipes" or mixes below to give you some ideas to get you started!

Essential Oils: December ER Order

Here's a quick video I made to share what I purchased last month on my Young Living Essential Rewards order. I signed up for essential rewards over a year ago and each month I earn reward points back that I can use just like cash to purchase other products. A few months after I ordered my starter kit, I realized Young Living had so many different products I wanted to try AND I would be reordering some of the oils I had started using a lot {like lavender and lemon} quite frequently so it just made sense to order through Essential Rewards to earn FREE product! I hope to keep up with making a video each month to share everything I order. I LOVE getting to peek inside other people's orders to see what they love and are using. If you have any questions about essential oils or the video feel free to email me or comment below. Thanks for watching!

Daily Oil Routine

1  //  I drink Ningxia Red errday y'all. Why? Because it's amazing. A drink made from the wolfberry...the ultimate superfruit! Its great for overall wellness support as well as energy.

2  //  A couple drops of lemon oil in my water to start the day. I try to drink a glass of water before I get my coffee. Just a little personal rule that makes me feel responsible. Ha.

3  //  I put Stress Away on daily because I love the smell. I put it on my wrists and my neck.

4  //  Diffusing Thieves and Lemon is a daily combo in our house. Usually in the AM since we are home for the summer.

5  //  At some point during the day, usually afternoon, I love to put a drop of Grapefruit in my water. So so good.

6  //  We usually run the diffuser a couple of times a day. Citrus oils are our favorite go to oils in the afternoon to perk us up!

7  //  The Kidscents oil collection is used on a daily basis. We use Bite Buster and Owie the most but love them all.

8  //  Summertime means a whole lotta bug spray. We make our own with Peppermint, Thieves, and Purification along with witch hazel and distilled water. Smells amazing!

9  //  I have a roller with diluted thieves for putting on our feet before bed to assist our immune system.

10 //  This blend of Frankincense and Helichrysum is another way I support my eye health. I have it in a roller ball bottle to easy roll on before bed along my eye bone. While being very careful to not actually get any in my eye. That's a no no.

11  //  For my youngest, I usually diffuse Lavender or White Angelica in her room to promote a good night's rest!

This is an overview of my daily oil routine. I use other oils depending on what my or my family's needs are for that particular day. Do you use essential oils? What is an oil you can't live without???

Essential Oils---What are they?

Before I go into more detail about my essential oil experience and story, let's talk about what essential oils are. Just in case you're not sure or would like some basic info.


>>>>>>  WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS???

Essential oils are tiny molecules that come from plants and have been used for thousands of years. I hear people say things all the time about how essential oils are the newest trend and while they DEFINITELY have become much more popular recently, they are not NEW. :)
They are usually extracted through distillation but sometimes through cold-pressing. They make up a plant's "immune system" protecting it from bad stuff like fungi and bacteria.


>>>>>> HOW DO YOU USE ESSENTIAL OILS???

The main ways to use them are...

• Inhale- inhale directing from the bottle, diffuse with a diffuser, or a drop in the palm of your hand, cover your face and breathe deeply.
• Topically- apply directly on the skin or with a carrier oil. Bottom of the feet, along the spine, edge of ear, inside mouth, on wrists or an immediate area of concern are good places to apply oils.
•  Ingesting- drop oils under the tongue, into clear vegetable capsule or add to a drink (be sure to use a glass container)

>>>>>> WHY SHOULD I USE ESSENTIAL OILS???

Want a healthy and natural way to improve your health?!? There are so many different essential oils which means there are numerous ways and reasons to use them. Essential oils may help improve sleeping patterns, improve your immune system, may improve seasonal discomforts and so much more. We'll go into more depth on what each oil from the starter kit may help with over the next few weeks!


>>>>>> WHY YOUNG LIVING???

There are many different essential oils on the market today but please know the quality of the oil is EVERYTHING. Young Living Essential Oils are PURE, THERAPEUTIC grade essential oils. So pure, they can be ingested and so different from PERFUME grade essential oils and even oils purchased at health food stores which often contain fillers and are not 100% pure oil. Essential oils are currently not regulated by the FDA so companies can put whatever they want on the bottle. The reactions you may have seen or read about are due to not using the highest quality of essential oils and/or not using them properly. Check out Young Living's amazing Seed to Seal guarantee to learn about how their oils are cultivated - from the planted seed to the sealed bottle.
