While we certainly don't need a new year to create great health habits, there is something fundamentally refreshing about this time of year. It's a time to rest, to renew, to sit and enjoy the slowness of winter while holding space for our dreams, our needs and our desires.

Winter is a time to reflect on what we want to continue giving energy to and what we want to gratefully release. During this time, let's make room for healthy habits on a daily basis. It is the small steps over time that make a lasting difference.

This collection of diffuser blends features some of our favorite oils for health - Lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, Frankincense, Pine, Rosemary and more. These are the blends we are reading for right now as we extend our winter hibernation, reflect on the year past, set personal and health goals for the future, and refresh and renew our bodies and spirits as we look forward to the year ahead with expectant hope.

Our diffusers are running 24/7 in our homes, supporting our immune systems, respiratory systems, emotions, cleansing the air and making things smell welcome and inviting all at the same time.

LIFE HACK - You can easily transform these blends into roller recipes and sprays!

To make a 10 mL roller from any recipe - triple the number of drops to make a total of 35-45 total drops, add a carrier of choice (we love V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex) and you're good to go.

To make a 2 oz spray from any recipe - double the number of drops to a total of about 25 drops, ad a splash of witch hazel and fill with filtered water. Spray on upholstered surfaces, bedding, rugs, anywhere you want to freshen!

Check it - many of these recipes contain the Gifts with Purchase oils in January. Get the everyday products you need and get free oils to use in the diffuser too!

Happy diffusing!!

Pine and Northern Lights Black Spruce are grounding and calming and also offer wonderful health benefits, making them all stars for the diffuser!

Add in a little Cinnamon Bark for a hint of spice and you have a blend that rivals any candle in scent but also packs a wonderful health punch!


Whenever you're feeling ready to set goals and make progress towards this, this is the blend you want to diffuse.

Lemon is bright, crisp and inspiring. Grapefruit is happy and uplifting. Basil and Rosemary are herbaceous and focusing oils.

It is this constituent that gives Eucalyptus Radiata its camphor's aroma and incredible respiratory support properties.

Winter Wonderland Diffuser Recipes - Dec 2021

Winter Wonderland Diffuser Blends
For your December


Whether you're walking in a winter wonderland or basking the warm sunshine this season, this collection of diffuser blends will bring you all the cozy feelings of the season. Nature itself shows us that winter is a time to slow down, to rest, to find presence with those around us.

It is a time of shorter days and longer nights, of cooler temperatures and warm fireplaces. And no matter where this winter finds you, we hope it is surrounded by joy and beauty within the day to day.

These blends feature tree oils, mint, and citrus, plus the warm scents of spice oils like Vanilla and Cinnamon Bark. Tree oils are emotionally calming and wonderful for grounding our hearts and minds during this season of slowness. Tree oils are also wonderful for the immune system, which is perfect during time of gathering with loved ones.

Citrus oils are happy and uplifting adding a brightness to these blends that is welcoming and comforting. Peppermint is crisp and clear like freshly fallen snow and cool winter air and pairs perfectly with tree oils and citrus. The blends often finish with a hint of warmth from Vanilla, Clove or Cinnamon Bark or with a sweetness from uplifting floral oils like Joy and Ylang Ylang.

Our diffusers are running 24/7 in our homes, supporting our immune systems, respiratory systems, emotions, cleansing the air and making things smell divine - all at the same time! Join us this month as we diffuse these favorite winter blends.

Check it - many of these recipes contain the Gifts with Purchase oils in December. Get the everyday products you need and get free oils to use in the diffuser too!

Happy diffusing!!

Is there anything more warm and inviting than the smell of Vanilla? Pair it with crisp Peppermint, sweet Ylang Ylang and spicy Nutmeg for a diffuser blend reminiscent of your favorite coffee house.

This is a great blend for any time of day, but we especially love it in the mornings. Peppermint is bright and alerting, and Nutmeg is helpful for stress levels.

Ylang Ylang and Vanilla are welcoming and uplifting, making this blend perfect for the winter season.
Frankincense, Orange and Peppermint combine in this blend that is happy, uplifting and centering all at the same time - the perfect combination of the season.

Diffuse this blend during family gathering to create an atmosphere of joy and togetherness. Frankincense is a wonderful oil for the season - supportive of immunity and also emotionally calming.

Orange and Peppermint are a great combination anytime of year - uplifting and joyful.


Give your immune system a boost and make your home smell like mulled cider - all at the sam time. The spicy scent of Thieves is kicked up a notch with extra clove, and it mixes with Orange and Grapefruit for a citrus twist that is perfect anytime of day.

This is a great blend to diffuse during gatherings - warm and welcoming and a perfect way to add a little holiday cheer.


Spruce, Vanilla and Orange - oh my! This blend is the quintessential winter combination - tree oil + citrus + spice.

Vanilla and Vetiver create a warmth that is calming and relaxing, Northern Lights Black Spruce is great for the immune system and smells like a winter forest, and Orange is uplifting and calming at the same time.
.

When it's snowing outside, we love to get out and play, then curl up by the fire with a good book and the ones we love. This blend is all those things combined.

Blue Spruce and Patchouli bring the woodsy scents of the outdoors (and support immunity), while Orange and Grapefruit are fun, playful and uplifting.

Diffuse this blend after a day playing out in the cold.

This blend is sweet and welcoming, just like a candy cane!

The iconic holiday candy is more than meets the eye, carrying symbolism many of us don't know. This blend is the same.

Peppermint is bright and crisp and wonderful for the respiratory system, Ylang Ylang is floral and sweet and emotionally uplifting, and Vanilla is warm and inviting.
No matter whether you're celebrating holidays this month or not, there's something so special about getting in the kitchen and doing some winter baking with the ones you love.

This combination of spice oils with a little Jade Lemon will take you back to your fondest memories of grandmother's baked goods!

This is also a great blend to diffuse if you're feeling the stress of the season. Nutmeg is wonderful for the adrenals, and Copaiba and Vanilla are calming, while Jade Lemon is bright and happy.

Bright, sweet and warm, like a giant hug from someone you love - that is this blend!

Joy and Ylang Ylang are lovely floral oils, Bergamot adds a bit of citrus spice, and Vanilla is warm and welcoming.

This combination is bright and fresh and perfect for any time of day, but especially love it in the mornings or whether we are feeling the anxieties of the season.



Spruce, spice and everything nice! This blend of Christmas Spirit, Tangerine, Bergamot and Nutmeg is the perfect blend for the season.

Citrus with a hint of spice and spruce that feels like pulling on your favorite pair of cozy mittens against the winter chill.

Essentials for Nov 2021

November Essentials
What should I order?


November is all about giving and thanks, finding gratitude for what is and hoping what is to come. We want to enjoy this season to the fullest by being completely present in each moment and by taking care of ourselves and our families. Join us this month as we use the following products daily to do just that.

Idaho Blue Spruce essential oil - for emotional centering and yummy diffuser blends

Gratitude essential oil blend - to use as you foster gratitude during the season

Idaho Blue Spruce Essential Oil

Idaho Blue Sprue is a crowd favorite tree oil with a woodsy blue slightly sweet smell. The oil is steam distilled from the wood, bark, and needles of the Picea pungens tree, an evergreen species native to the central Rocky Mountains.


Considered a sacred tree by Native American tribes in the Northwest, Idaho Blue Spruce was used tratidially for smudging and purification rites. Idaho Blue Spruce essential oil has a grounding, evergreen aroma that can be used during meditation or prayer to enhance your practice and inspire spiritual connection.


Learn more about Idaho Blue Spruce essential oil in November's Oil of the Month post.

Tangerine Essential Oil

Tangerine essential oil is a bright, happy citrus oil that pairs well with just about anything. It has a delightfully sweet aroma that can create a happy, contented mindset when diffused.

Tangerine Vitality essential oil offers a fresh, sweet, citrus flavor that can be used to elevate your favorites sauces, marinades and desserts. It may also provide digestive, lymphatic, and immune support when taken as a dietary supplement, making it an incredible oil for this time of year.

Antioxidant Drink

Add a daily shot of NingXia Red to your routine to enjoy the benefits of this powerful whole-body supplement. There are MANY reasons we love this wolfberry puree (see the list of blog posts for all the ways).

NingXia Red is packed with superfoods to support overall wellness - plum, aronia, cherry, blueberry, and pomegranate juices and extracts, pure vanilla extract and Lemon, Orange, Tangerine and Yuzu essential oils.

The benefits of NingXia Red include support for energy levels, normal cellular function, and whole-body and normal eye health. A daily shot of 2-4 ounce helps support overall wellness with powerful antioxidants.

Learn more about NingXia Red:
Gratitude Essential Oil Blend

Gratitude is a practice and an attitude, both of which we want to foster year round, but specially during this season.

Gratitude essential blend has an uplifting aroma that fosters gratitude, thankfulness, and contentment. When you concentrate on things you are grateful for instead of things that bother you, you open yourself up to receiving more of your gifts.

Life flows better when your heart and mind are open with gratitude. One great way to do that is to apply and/or diffuse Gratitude essential oil blend while journaling, during prayer or during meditation.

Enjoy this blend of Grand Fir, Frankincense, Coriander, Myrrh, Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Vetiver, and Geranium, with us as we focus on gratitude this month and beyond.

Learn more about Gratitude blend (which is free with purchase this month) in November's How to Use blog post and how to use Gratitude in these yummy diffuser recipes.
ImmuPro Tablets

ImmuPro is a power-packed supplement that combines multiple immune support ingredients including naturally derived NingXia wolfberry polysaccharides as well as a unique blend of reishi, maitake, and agarics blazei mushroom powders to deliver powerful antioxidant activity to react the damaging effects of oxidative stress from free radicals.

ImmuPro also provides zinc and selenium for proper immune function, along with other chelated minerals that emerging science suggests are more easily absorbed by the body. It also delivers melatonin, which encourages restful sleep by promoting the body's natural sleep rhythm. Sleep is essential when the immune system needs to get its defenses going, making ImmuPro a favorite this time of year.

Read more about ImmuPro in this Supplement Spotlight bog post.
OmegaGize Capsules

We have all heard how important fish oil and omegas are for our health, but it can be so difficult to find a clean, sustainable source. Young Living has done that for us.

OmegaGize combines the power of three core daily supplements: omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin D3, and CoQ1-(ubiquinone). These supplements combine with a proprietary enhancement essential oil blend to create an omega-3, DHA -rich fish oil supplement that can support cardiovascular health and general wellness. Used daily, these ingredients work synergistically to support normal brain, heart, eye, and joint health.

Learn more about OmegaGize in this month's Supplement Spotlight.

October's gifts with Purchase


Fall is here! We are so excited for all the cool-weather activities and to make the most of this season with our loved ones. Celebrate togetherness with this month's gift.

Gathering your favorite people becomes even sweeter with your favorite Young Living products on hand (and your wellness habits in full swing).


Patchouli, Cinnamon Bark, Clove, and Nutmeg will be the stars of your favorite diffuser blends. Spiced Turmeric Herbal Tea will be a great start to our morning. And when it's time to wind down, let the evening melt away with ImmuPro chewable tablets. Plus, enjoy a hassle-free fall with free shipping when you reach the 100 PV tier.

At the end of the day, Young Living is all about connection, which is why the will be donating $1 to The D. Gary Young, Young Living Foundation for every 400 PV order.

For some of our favorite ways to use these oils and products, check out the How to Use October's Gift with Purchase blog.

Every month this generous company loads us up with free items simply for being loyal customers. We purchase items we’d be buying anyway - toothpaste, lotion, shampoo, makeup, supplements and cleaning supplies, etc - from Young Living, and we not only get amazing, high quality products that are safe for our families, we get free products, free shipping, delivered to our doorstep and product credits galore! I am ALL about boxes of safe, effective and healthy products showing up in my mailbox with fun freebies inside!


Freebies During the Month of October


With any order (Subscribe to Save or one time shop order) of 100 PV or more, you will receive FREE SHIPPING. Stock up on fall-time favorites and your order will ship for free.


190 PV Orders

With any order (Subscribe to Save or Shop) of 190 PV or more, you'll receive a free 5 mL CINNAMON BARK AND CLOVE. If your order is a Subscribe to Save order (previously Essential Rewards), you'll also receive a free 5 mL NUTMEG.


CINNAMON BARK essential oil, 5 mL
  • Usher in the season. Cinnamon is THE oil of fall, so add Ito to your diffuser, your DIYs, your roller blends - even your coffee grounds.
  • Unwind and relax. Mix 3 drops of Cinnamon Bark oil with some V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex and use it for a warming foot massage. Then put on a pair of soft socks to keep your feet cozy and moisturized.
  • Spice it up. Make a room spray by filling a spray bottle with 3 ounces of water and 4 drops each of Cinnamon Bark, Clove and Orange essential oils.

CLOVE essential oil blend, 5 mL
  • Add antioxidants. Clove essential oil is an antioxidant powerhouse! Clove has an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of 1,078,700 μTE/100 g, meaning it provides your body with a large supply of antioxidants to support health and healing. (To give you an idea of what this means, oranges are created 750 μTE/100 g and kale is rated at 1,770 μTE/100 g.)
  • Spice up a soak. After a day of outdoor adventures, draw a warm bath, add 2 drops Clove to 1 cup Epsom salt and then add to your bath water (ideally, let the water run into and over a cup containing the salts) for a relaxing soak. Sit back and soak up all the health benefits of Clove essential oil.
  • Don't want the full body experience? Cut the recipe in half and add the salts to warm water to a large bin for a simple, wonderful foot soak.
  • Feel forest fresh. Add 3-4 drops of Clove to a glass spray bottle to bring in a warm, woodsy scent that simply sings of the outdoors.
NUTMEG essential oil blend, 5 mL
  • Say goodby to stress. Give your stress response system (adrenals!) some love with a daily dose of Nutmeg. Dilute and apply over the lower back morning and evening. Pair with Clove, Frankincense and Rosemary for added benefits.
  • Freshen up fall. Make a homely linen spray by combining a few drops of Nutmeg, Clove, and Bergamot in a spray bottle filled with 2 cups of water. This cozy scent will make guests feel right at home.
  • Work in bliss. Refresh your home office with a diffuser blend of Nutmeg and Eucalyptus Radiata for a spicy-fresh scent that will make your upcoming meeting a little brighter.
  • Note: for Subscribe to Save orders only.

250 PV Orders

PATCHOULI essential oil blend, 5 mL
  • Warm up indoor workouts. Diffuse Patchouli oil to add a comforting atmosphere to a calming yoga session or as you stretch before bed.
  • Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. With cold weather coming in, skin can get drier and direr. Add a drop or two of Pachouli oil to your favorite face lotion for extra moisture your skin will love.
  • Ditch the deodorant. Use Patchouli as a natural alternative to conventional deodorant.

With any order of 300 PV, you'll receive a free bottle of IMMUPRO TABLETS and all of the above with FREE SHIPPING!

  • Kick back and relax. After a long day of overcast weather, settle into the evening with a dash of delish by pouring a mug of this spiced wonder.
  • Note: for Subscribe to Save orders only.
