If you would like to learn more about dōTERRA essential oils and products, along with how we use them in our day to day, this is a great place to start!
Why I Chose Dōterra
Recently I’ve had a number of people ask me, “Why did you choose Dōterra?” Or “They’re like the same thing as ‘X brand’ right?” Here’s the thing. Dōterra is a league all on its own. No other essential oil company comes close to them, based on my research when looking to begin using oils. -They…
Detox Mud Mask
One of my most favorite doterra products is the detox mud mask. Though most people use it on their face (1st way to use it), there are 2 other great places to apply this mask for incredible benefits. The second place to try using your detox mask is your arm pits. Your underarms contain a…
Hands
One of the first places on your body to show age is your hands. You could have a beautiful, wrinkle free face, but if your hands start looking like tissue paper, it’s a dead giveaway. As a mom I am constantly washing my hands, working in the garden, and putting my hands through the wringer.…
Happy & Healthy
I guess I should start with the “disclaimer.” You know, the ones that all “alternative resources” have. The one that says, “According to the FDA these products can not prevent, treat, or cure, any illness or disease” blah blah blah. Isn’t it funny that somehow resources that have grown on the Earth and were used…
Dryer Sheets VS Dryer Balls
One of the many places we inadvertently expose ourselves to chemicals is our laundry! This is something I never thought about until I had a baby- why can’t I use regular clothes soap and dryer sheets on my baby clothes? If these products aren’t safe enough for her, how are they possibly safe for ME!?…
Pregnancy
As I mentioned in my post about Eleanor’s Birth, finding out we were pregnant again was petrifying for me. Not because I was afraid to be a mom of 2. Not because I was afraid of labor & delivery. No. I was terrified of pregnancy. When I was pregnant with Athena I had all day…
Adult Bedtime
One of the hardest parts about using oils, has actually been remembering that I can use them for Ethan and I as well. This doesn’t mean I forget and use OTC medication, I just suck it up and wait for what ever is wrong with me to end or stop. I’m sure you’ve noticed I…
Nursery Blend
When I got my initial starter kit of essential oils, I knew they were safe for my tiny human, but how was I supposed to use them!? The easiest place to start is the diffuser. It’s fairly common knowledge that lavender is exceptionally good at calming and relaxation. It’s also one of the safest oils…
Migraine Rollers
My mother and I both suffer from horrific migraines. Horrific really doesn’t even touch the debilitating pain sometimes, but it’s the best I’ve got. There are a few migraine blends we use to help give some relief, but the following are our 2 favorite. Peppermint Migraine Roller 10ml roller bottle Fractioned coconut oil (or carrier…
Cradle Cap, Colic, & Heat Rash
As parents, especially first timers, it’s so easy to become overwhelmed or feel like a failure when your little human has “something wrong” with them- even when it’s perfectly normal! Below are 3 super fast, super easy, recipes to take care of 3 of the most common baby issues. Cradle Cap: At just shy of…
They See Me Rolling
They hatin…. sorry. I couldn’t resist. One of the biggest concerns people have when they start with essential oils is HOW DO I USE THEM!? You invest, you’re SO excited to get them, and then you get them, and suddenly YOU JUST DON’T know! And when you want to use your oils on your Littles,…
Rosemary Popcorn
We love popcorn in our house. It goes hand in hand with our epic movie marathon days. I love {real} buttery popcorn. I’m pretty plain-Jane, but now and again I like to mix it up. 1 bag of unbuttered, plain popcorn 2 tablespoons butter 1-3 drops Rosemary oil 1. Pop your popcorn as usual 2.…
Sugar Scrub
A few weeks ago I did a post on Epsom Salt scrubs/soaks. This week, I’m doing one on sugar scrubs. My inspiration? This ad that I came across on Facebook. They look fun, fresh, and premade! Chocolate scrub!? YUMMO! But I did a little investigating. This is what I found on the website for the…
Miracle Whip
No, this is not the stuff you put on a sandwich. This is my favorite jackofalltrades put-it-on-anything, oil blend. 3-5 tablespoons of coconut oil (regular NOT fractioned) 5 drops lavender oil 3 drops melaleuca oil 3 drops frankincense oil Add coconut oil to your mixing bowl. I use my KitchenAide with the whisk attachment and…
Cassia Wild Orange Scones
In a few weeks I am hosting a Tea, Snacks, {Baby Snuggles}, and Oils class. You obviously can’t have an afternoon tea without scones! Being that it will also be an oils class, and you can cook/bake with dōTERRA oils, I decided to do some experimenting. I couldn’t be happier with how these Cassia scones…
Lavender Lemon Cupcakes
These beautiful cupcakes made their debut on Mother’s Day, and popped out again for an Afternoon Tea and Oils Party, I hosted a few weeks ago. Usually I make as much as possible homemade. Between church, schedule, and mom-ing, I did this one semi-homemade. Ingredients: 1 white cake box mix (NOT vanilla or yellow!) Purple…
OnGuard Cleaner Concentrate
This month, dōTERRA’s discounted item of the month is the OnGuard Cleaner Concentrate. I’ve been wanting to get it, so I was SO excited to find out it was on sale. Of course as soon as I got it, I HAD to start using it! I’d like to take a brief moment of pause for…
