Cheat Sheet for Healthy Hormones

Hormone Health Cheat Sheet

Not sure where to start when it comes to supporting healthy hormones? Check out these suggestions and learn more with the individual product spotlight linked below.

The endocrine system is a network of glands throughout the body that makes hormones - insulin, thyroid hormone, cortisol, sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone) and more. The hormones made the endocrine system are responsible for almost every cell, organ, and function in the body.

Adrenal, thyroid and sex hormones work in a cycle together. Thyroid hormone affects sex hormones. Adrenal hormones affect thyroid hormones. Sex hormones affect adrenal hormones. So when one part of the cycle isout of balance, there are consequences for the entire endocrine system.

Thyroid & Adrenals
The adrenal glands are located just above the kidneys and are know for the 'flight or fight' response. This response is natural and necessary. It protects us when in high stress situation (like running from a lion), but the constant stress of daily life often keeps our adrenals on overdrive.

The thyroid gland perfumes a myriad of tasks in the body. It regulates metabolism, energy, body temperature, and hormone production which impacts just about every other body system in some way. Thyroid support is always important, but it is especially so for women aged 25-45 and before/during/after pregnancy.

Thyroid - try Thyromin, Ningxia Red, and EndoFlex

Sex Hormones
Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone play a huge role in our overall health - everything from reproduction to muscle tone to mood to energy levels. Chronic stress, improper nutrition, low Vitamin D levels, and unhealthy gut balance and yeast overgrowth can all negatively affect estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.

Menstrual Cycle
When estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are out of balance, it can cause some pretty uncomfortable symptoms during the monthly cycle. Other factors for painful periods include overall inflammation and even dietary sensitives. This topic is multifactorial, but here are a few options when it comes to balancing and supporting menstrual cycles.

DIY Stress Recovery Serum

DIY Stress Recovery Serum

It's no secret that emotional and psychological stress can wreak physical havoc on the body. We've all heard of the 'mind body connection' and probably have our own stories of how something has gone downhill physically during times of stress. Even current scientific has connected stress to physical ailments. And lately stress seems to be the theme of the world... for us, for our kids, for our circumstances...

So, what do we do about it? We find ways to effectively process stress and we support our bodies DAILY with supplements, high quality nutrition and essential oils. And this simple DIY is one that you will want to always keep on hand for daily adrenal support.

DIY Stress Recovery Serum (aka daily love for your adrenals)
The adrenal glands are located just above the kidneys and are known for the 'fight or flight' response.. which is great if we're running from a lion. But constant stress of daily life keeps them on overdrive! Give them some love and keep them going strong. Apply over the lower back every morning and before bed each evening.

  • 4 oz glass dropper bottle
  • Castor Oil (see note below)
  • 25 drops Nutmeg
  • 20 drops Clove
  • 20 drops Frankincense
  • 20 drops Rosemary
NOTE: You can use any carrier oil, but castor oil is specifically chosen as the fatty acids in castor oil allow the essential oils to be easily absorbed through he skin. High quality, cold-pressed castor oil can help your body to detoxify and improve circulation.

Let's take a quick look at the oils in the serum...

  • Nutmeg - THE essential oil for adrenal support, Nutmeg helps process and balance feelings of Exhaustion - which makes perfect sense. When our stress response system is on overdrive, how could we feel anything BUT exhausted? And when we are exhausted we are more prone to injury and illness.
  • Frankincense - is a versatile oil that supports immunity, helps the body process inflammation and works as an antioxidant in the body. Frankincense has long been used for its powerful health-supporting properties, and has been used 'to treat every conceivable ill known to man.'
  • Clove - THE Essential oil for powerful antioxidant support. Clove has an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of 1,078,700 (read: Clove is able to absorb and mitigate a LOT of free radicals. It's ability to do so is basically OFF the charts.) Why antioxidants? Because they help boost immunity and allow the body to repair cellular damage caused by the environment, injury and - you guessed it - stress!
  • Rosemary - one of the components of the 'Four Thieves Vinegar' and the Thieves essential oil blend. Rosemary has wonderful cleansing properties, supports the liver and helps support healthy blood pressure levels, which all connect to the adrenals through the HPA (hypothalamic-pituitary-axis).
Use this adrenal serum daily over the lower back in the morning and before bedtime for stress recovery.

DetoxZyme Supplement Spotlight - March 2021

Supplement Spotlight

DetoxZyme


We all heard how important healthy digestion is to overall health, so we want to support it well. Much like a car runs better with proper fuel and maintenance, our bodies need high quality fuel and daily support. One way we can do that is with enzymes like DetoxZyme. 


Just a Dose of DetoxZyme

  • Promotes detoxification and cleansing
  • Vegetarian-friendly formula
  • Fast acting enzymes help break down after eating to support digestion
  • Helps provide relief of occasional symptoms such as fullness, pressure, bloating, gas, pain and/or minor cramping
  • Works synergistically with a cleansing program
DetoxZyme is a blend of enzymes and essential oils formulated to promote detoxification and cleansing, which helps support normal digestive function. DetoxZyme contains powerful essential oils like cumin, anise, and fennel that work synergistically with fast acting, powerful enzymes to help break down food and assimilate nutrients after eating and help mitigate symptoms of digestive upset.

This formulation works to complete the digestive process, improve mineral absorption from food, improve gallbladder and liver function, prevent yeast overgrowth and detoxify the gastrointestinal tract.

  • Amylase - a powerful starch-digesting enzyme that prevents fermentation of starches in the digestive system
  • Invertase - splits the sugar sucrose into glucose and fructose
  • Protease 4.5 - protein-digesting enzymes that are stable in the varying pH conditions of the digestive tract, also fight off bacteria, yeast and parasites in the intestines
  • Glucoamylase - enzyme that breaks down starches into glucose
  • Bromelain - proteolytic enzyme found in pineapple that supports carbohydrate digestion
  • Phytase - an enzyme necessary for breaking down the minerals such as zinc, magnesium and potassium found in grains, nuts, seeds, and other foods
  • Lipase - a fat-dissolving enzyme that promotes excretion of toxins
DetoxZyme & Emotions

When our bodies are overloaded with toxins or weighed down from constantly filtering everything we throw at it, things become sluggish. This not only affects our physical health; it takes a toll on us emotionally as well. This often manifests as feeling lethargic, sluggish, unmotivated or simply down. Cleansing and detoxing our systems can have profound effects on our emotional health as well.

How To Use:

Take 2 capsules 3 times daily between meals or as needed

Join us this month as we use DetoxZyme capsules to support our physical and emotional health and wellness.

Lushious Lemon - Oil of the Month March 2022

OOTMLushious Lemon

Each month we focus on using an oil every day to help us in accomplishing our goals. Join us in choosing a method of application and simply getting this oil on and around you every day in March!

Brighten your day and freshen your home with the crisp, happy, citrusy aroma of Lushious Lemon essential oil blend. This blend features bright, uplifting oils - Lemon, Lemon Myrtle, Eucalyptus, Ylang Ylang, and Spearmint - in perfect combination that brings a bit of sunshine to your day while removing any unwanted orders at the same time.


Just a Drop of Lushious Lemon

  • Has a bright, fresh, uplifting aroma
  • A great way to brighten and freshen your space
  • Can be diffused throughout your home to create a positive atmosphere
  • Features Lemon Myrtle essential oil, known for its odor-neutralizing properties
  • Includes Ylang Ylang essential oil, known for its joyful flora aroma
  • Has a sweet, citrusy aroma with floral and minty undertones
  • Makes a great addition to bath and body DIYs
  • Adds a lovely citrus twist to home and cleaning DIYs
Bath & Body Works has nothing on this incredible scent! Lushious Lemon essential oil blend can rival any candle in its ability to freshen a space, and it comes without all the toxins of a scented candle. Plus, this bright, happy blend is infused into a hand soap and a hand lotion, so we get all the good stuff and none of the bad!

Background
Lushious Lemon essential oil blend features Lemon essential oil that is cold pressed from fruit grown on the Amanzi Amahle Cooperative Farm in South Africa, as well as Lemon Myrtle essential oil that is extracted from steam-distilled leaves of the myrtle plant. Floral Ylang Ylang, obtained from plants grown in Madagascar, and cool Spearmint and Eucalyptus Globulus round out the aroma, adding a touch of herbal depth.

Key Constituents
Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties.

  • Limonene - known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-stress support, this is a powerful constituent with many health benefits.
  • Gamma-terpinene - a potential antioxidant, Chinese medicine believes that this constituent may halt the advance of unwelcome microbes, reducing the risk of colds and 'flu-like symptoms.'
  • Alpha-pinene - a powerful antioxidant, some studies have shown alpha-pinene to support the body through inflammation and to help calm the mind.
  • Eucalyptus - it has a distinctive, fresh aroma that has a calming effect on the user when applied in aromatherapy.
Lushious Lemon & Emotions
This blend is a wonderful choice for encouraging joyful, abundant thoughts and emotions. Ylang Ylang is well known for its use in aromatherapy to help release stress and anxiety, and is especially helpful when battling low self-esteem and confidence. Lemon and Lemon Myrtle have a cleansing, uplifting scent that is wonderful for processing feelings of frustration or lack. The crisp scent of Spearmint and Eucalyptus is also good for releasing physical and emotional tension. So when you combine all these oils into one blend, you have a wonderful option for emotional support.

Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub - Ditch and Switch March 2021


Ditch & Switch Cleaning Scrubs for

THIEVES KITCHEN & BATH SCRUB


As the gatekeepers of our home we have such a great opportunity to bring in healthy products and create healthy habits for ourselves and families! 

Join us as we make a simple swap with a big impact. Ditch conventional (and even 'natural') cleaning scrubs for the Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub.

Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub is the perfect naturally derived cleaner: tough on messes and safe for your family. You get the power of a surface scrub without all the harmful chemical smells and residue in conventional options.


Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub gains its tough scrubbing power from nepheline syenite, a naturally occurring mineral from Canada; baking soda that gently absorbs orders; sodium per carbonate that releases oxygen when combined with water, providing a powerful boost of cleaning power against tough stains; and Young Living's signature Thieves blend.

Why we Love It
  • Chlorine-free, all-purpose cleaner that is safe for use on porcelain, ceramic, copper alloys, fiberglass, Corain, brass, bronze, and chrome.
  • Easily cleans cookware, stove cooktops, countertops, tile, grout, bathtubs, faucets, toilets, backsplashes, barbecue grills, outdoor patio furniture, and exteriors without scratching.
  • Removes grease, dirt, grime, residue, and tough stains from most surfaces without harsh chemical smells or residue.
  • Formulated without harmful chemicals, synthetic surfactants, phosphates, synthetic perfumes or dyes, gluten-containing ingredients, or artificial colors or fragrances.

Thieves Scrub vs. Conventional Options

Have you heard of the term 'greenwashing'? It is when companies throw a catch phrase or use a certain packaging to trick consumers into thinking they are purchasing a natural product - when in reality, what they are buying isn't natural at all.

Unfortunately, the majority of the 'natural' cleaning brands out there do  this, which is a huge reason we love the Thieves Home products. No phthalates, parabens, bleach, formaldehyde, or toxic chemicals in these products - just the power of plants.

Another big issue with conventional cleaners is fragrance. Fragrance is a very loosely defined term when it comes to use in personal care and household products. Fragrance and synthetic perfumes are problematic because companies aren't required to disclose the exact ingredients in the fragrances. Even 'natural fragrance' is problematic. Just because something is natural, doesn't mean we want to rub it on our skin (ie: formaldehyde - a naturally occurring compound that we don't want on our skin!) As the world leader in essential oils, Young Living utilizes the scent of the pure essential oils instead of fragrance, plus these oils have incredible properties of their own!

Thieves Scrub Key Ingredients
  • Nepheline syenite - A naturally occurring mineral responsibly mined in Canada, it is formed from molten magma and is similar to granite. It provides the scrubbing power to remove tough stains without scratching.
  • Sodium bicarbonate - Commonly known as baking soda, this powder helps remove odors and gently cleanse.
  • Sodium per carbonate - An effective, safer alternative to chlorine bleach, this ingredient releases oxygen to lift stains and dirt.
  • Citric acid - This natural ingredient helps tackle tough hard-water surface stains.
  • Thieves essential oil blend - Thieves is a Young Living signature blend that features purifying essential oils known for their immune support, refreshing breathing experience, and cleansing properties.

To Use:

  • Sprinkle Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub onto a wet surface or sponge. Rub the surface with a cloth or sponge for a sparkling clean, then rinse.
  • Use it to naturally tackle soap scum, built-up grease and grime, and hard-water stains in the kitchen and bathroom.
  • Keep it on hand for cleaning ovens, grills, and barbecues as well.

Join us this month as we clean our homes with the plant power of Thieves Kitchen & Bath Scrub.

Open the windows and let the sunshine in! March is here and with it, the hint of spring. And we are ready!

These blends will freshen up your home and bring the feeling of cool, crisp mornings and sunny afternoons. These recipes mix in herbaceous scents from an early spring garden with fresh favorites like Lemongrass that are perfect any time of day.

These oils are wonderful for supporting immune and respiratory health as we head into the changing seasons, and they are great for our emotions as well!

Our diffusers are running 24/7 in our homes, supporting our immune systems, respiratory systems, emotions, cleansing the air and making things smell happy and inviting all at the same time. Join us this month as we diffuse these favorite blends to get you going this spring.

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!

EndoGize Supplement Spotlight - Feb 2022

EndoGize

Supplement Spotlight

Hormones play a huge role in our overall health and well being - both physical and mental. We want to use all the tools in our toolbox to support hormone balance, and EndoGize is an incredible supplement for those needing more hormone balance.


Just a Dose of EndoGize

EndoGize is a daily women's hormone support supplement powered by a blend of minerals, Ginger, Myrrh, Cassia, Clary Sage, and Canadian Fleabane essential oils, plus ashwagandha root (a well known herb for hormone balance). These ingredients work synergistically to create a balancing formula that supports a healthy endocrine system for women.

Why We Love EndoGize

  • Specially formulated to support a balanced endocrine system in women.
  • Includes ashwagandha, a well known adaptogen
  • Provides overall endocrine (hormone) system support
  • Enhanced with essential oils
Each of the ingredients in EndoGize works synergistically together to create a 1+1 = 3 scenario for hormone balancing that no other supplement can provide.

  • Ashwagandha root extract - an ancient herb that works as an adaptogen, helping your body manage stress; can boost brain function; lower blood sugar and cortisol levels; and help fight systems of anxiety and depression.
  • DHEA - a hormone precursor for estrogen and testosterone. DHEA is made in the body and levels decline as we age. Note: DHEA is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding or for those being treated for prostate or breast cancer unless directly by a physician.
  • Tribulus terrestris - an herb that supports muscle tone, libido and overall hormone balance.
  • Ginger essential oil - soothing to the digestive system and supportive of the body's response to inflammation.
  • Myrrh essential oil - a powerful essential oil for overall health, myrrh contains terpenoids and sesquiterpenes, constituents which show both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
  • Clary Sage essential oil - known as a phytoestrogen, Clary Sage helps to support healthy hormone balance and estrogen levels.
  • Cassia essential oil - supports the body's response to inflammation; one of the oldest known medicinal herbs (in the cinnamon family, though distinctly different chemical profile).
  • Canadian Fleabane essential oil - this oil contains powerful constituents - limonene, cis-matricaria ester, and trans-alpha-bergamotene - which have incredible health benefits.
  • Zinc - and essential trace element that also helps to strengthen the immune system.
  • Muira Puama bark - an herb commonly used to help with cramps, PMS and other monthly issues.
  • Vitamin B6 - an essential B vitamin that must be obtained in the diet, Vitamin B6 plays a critical role in the function of essential chemical reactions in the body.
To Use EndoGize Daily

  • Take 1 capsule 2 times daily. Use daily for 2 weeks.
  • Discontinue for 2 weeks before resuming.
Note: Contains soy, not recommend during pregnancy or when breastfeeding.

Massage Oils Ditch and Switch - Feb 2022

February's Ditch & Switch

Lubricants for Massage Oils


When it comes to physical intimacy, there are many things that can help or hinders in the process. One simple way we can enhance our experience with products that don't harm our health is with Young LIving's massage oils. For use as a personal lubricant, Relaxation Massage Oil or Sensation Massage Oil would be a great choice.

As the gatekeepers of our homes we have such a great opportunity to bring in healthy products and create healthy habits for ourselves and families. Join us this month as we make a simple swap with a bit impact. Ditch personal lubricants and use Young Living massage oils instead.

Sensation Massage Oil

Sensation is formulated to create a beautiful smell that is profoundly romantic, refreshing, and arousing. It amplifies the excitement of experiencing new heights of self-expression and awareness. This blend is also nourishing and hydrating for the skin. This unique blend of essential oils can encourage and amplify and atmosphere of love, excitement, and affection.

  • Geranium essential oils is commonly used in perfumes for its uplifting aroma, and it can help balance hormones as well.
  • Jasmine essential oil helps you develop a broader perspective with its romantic floral aroma - a very feminine aroma that embraces and exults the sacred masculine - and has been revered for centuries as a symbol of love and purity, harmonizing opposites to promote wholeness.
  • Ylang Ylang essential oil has a calming aroma that sets the mood for romance and helps enhance emotional connection.
Relaxation Massage Oil

Relaxation massage oil can help restore a state of calm and invites tranquility to them, body, and spirit. The pure vegetable oils blended with essential oils are moisturizing and nourishing to help soothe all skin types. This calming massage oil combines some of our favorite essential oils from across the globe.

  • Lavender helps promote feelings of calm and relaxation
  • Ylang Ylang has a calming aroma that sets the mood for romance and helps enhance emotional connection
  • Spearmint & Peppermint are energizing and uplifting to the body and mind
  • Bergamot & Tangerine promote feelings of calm and connection to others.
Why Make the Switch

Unfortunately, both conventional and organic lubricants contain ingredients that can cause harm long after their use. These ingredients are toxic to vaginal tissue and disrupt the sensitive vaginal microbiome (balance of microorganisms that naturally inhabit the vagina). Exposure to these ingredients can lead to discomfort, irritation, and increased risk of infection - even from short term exposure. Some lubricant ingredients also have the potential to cause chronic health issues including cancer and reproductive problems from repeated exposure.

In fact, there is growing consensus among scientists that the vast majority of lubricants need to be reformulated to be safer than they are now. Ingredients found in common lubricants that have know health consequence include:

  • Methylparaben, propylparaben, & ethylparaben - preservative chemicals that can irritate vaginal mucous membranes, contribute to genital rashes, and potentially cause fertility problems and endocrine (hormone) disruption.
  • Chlorhexidine gluconate - a disinfectant chemical that can kill strains of lactobacillus, which is a bacterial that is necessary for a healthy microbiome.
  • Cyclomethicone, cyclopentasiloxane, & cyclotetrasiloxane - commonly found in silicone-based lubricants, these substances are linked to reproductive harm and uterine cancer in animal studies. Almost no research has ever been conducted to examine the long term impacts of vaginal exposure to these chemicals in women.
  • Natural and artificial flavor & fragrance - flavors, fragrances, and aromas can include a mix of chemicals which can cause irritation and allergies.
  • And so much more...
Product Options

  • Sensation Massage Oil - a blend of Coriander, Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, Jasmine, and Geranium that is romantic, refreshing and arousing, amplifying the excitement of new heights of self-expression and awareness.
  • Relaxation Massage Oil - combines Tangerine, Lavender, Spearmint, Ylang Ylang, Peppermint, Coriander, and Bergamot essential oils for the relaxing, restorative properties.
  • Dragon Time Massage Oil - a soothing combination of Fennel, Clary Sage, Marjoram, Lavender, Yarrow, and Jasmine that is perfect for supporting women.
  • Cel-Lite Magic Massage Oil - tones and nourishes the skin with a blend of Grapefruit, Cypress, Juniper, Cedarwood, and Clary Sage essential oils.
  • OrthoEase Massage Oil - a blend of Wintergreen, Peppermint, Juniper, Eucalyptus Globulus, Lemongrass, Marjoram, Thyme, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Vetiver essential oils that warm and soothe fatigued muscles for relief.
  • OrthoSport Massage Oil - combines Oregano, Peppermint, Thyme, and Wintergreen to give a cooling sensation when used with a soothing massage, specifically following strenuous physical activity.
  • V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex - great to use as a base and add your special blend of essential oils. Suggested oils for an intimate massage oil - Yarrow, Ylang Ylang, and Shutran.
To Use Massage Oils:

Use your massage oil of choice in place of a personal lubricant for intimacy. There is always the option to further dilute the massage oil with V-6 carrier oil to test the area(s) or when making the switch. Note that OrthoEase and OrthoSport contain hot oils that have a warming or tingling sensation when applied to the skin.

Join us this month as we ditch personal lubricants for Young Living massage oils.

Clary Sage Oil Spotlight - Feb 2022

Clary Sage Essential Oil

Oil Spotlight for February

Clary Sage is a distinctly feminine oil that we love for everything from supporting healthy skin to wearing as a personal fragrance to supporting healthy hormone levels. This oil is a great choice for women for many reasons.


Each month we focus on using an oil every day to help us in accomplishing our goals. Join us in choosing a method of application and simply getting this oil on and around you every day in February.

Just a Drop of Clary Sage...

  • Has a calming, soothing, lightly floral aroma
  • Promotes the appearance of healthy-looking skin and hair
  • Helps soothe minor skin irritations
  • Geared toward women for its hormone support properties
  • Supports healthy estrogen levels through naturally occurring phytoestrogens
  • Makes a lovely perfume
Clary Sage essential oil is a main component of Dragon Time oil blend, a blend formulated for supporting normal, healthy emotions during the female monthly cycle. Clary Sage contains the naturally occurring constituent linalyl acetate, which contributes to its calming and soothing herbal aroma. Applied topically, Clary Sage essential oil promotes the appearance of healthy-looking skin, making this an oil every woman wants to have in her arsenal.

Background

Native to the Mediterranean region, Clary Sage is a perennial shrub in the Salvia family. Traditionally used as a medicinal herb, it typically grows 3-4 feet tall and produces showy purple blooms that attract pollinators. Young Living's Clary Sage essential oil is steam distilled from the flowering parts of the plant at the Mona, UT and Simiane-la-Rotonde, France farms.

Key Constituents

Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties.

  • Linalyl acetate - a potent antioxidant that promotes circulatory health and allows the body to support healing from ischemic injury (injury as a result of poor blood flow).
  • Linalool - supports stress relief and uplifts the mood, helps support the body during times of illness and stress.
Clary Sage & Emotions

Clary Sage can be a powerful tool for female emotions! Since we know of its estrogen-support properties this makes a lot of sense. When our hormones are unbalanced, it takes a toll on our health - both physical and emotional. Clary Sage is grounding and comforting and evokes feelings of feminine energy. It pairs well with citrus oils like Bergamot and Tangerine as well as Patchouli and Lavender.

Clary Sage is also a component in the supplement CortiStop because of its ability to balance hormones and stop the stress response. Stress wreaks havoc on our health, so any way we can find to support stress reduction is key! Pair daily use and inhalation of Clary Sage with meditation, journaling, affirmations and prayer.

Clary Sage & Pregnancy

Because Clary Sage contains phytoestrogens, it can increase fertility in some women. It can also be used to support labor! Because of this, some women choose to avoid excess use of Clary Sage during pregnancy until labor is desired.

Clary Sage is found in:

Love & Connection Diffuser Recipes - Feb 2022

Diffuser Blends
For Love and Connection


Love and connection are a vital part of our health. We live in communities, gather in small groups in churches and chapels, enjoy book clubs and other intimate gatherings with friends and family. We need these relationships for our mental, emotional and even physical health! Our mind and body are so interconnected, that cultivated sincere relationships not only bolsters us emotionally, it keeps us healthier in the long run.

This collection of diffuser blends include some of our favorite oils for love and connection - to self and to others! Ylang Ylang, Orange, Lavender, Idaho Blue Spruce and Vanilla to name a few.

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

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 February. Get the everyday products you need and get free oils to use in the diffuser too!

Happy diffusing!!

When you want to unwind at the end of the day, add this blend to your diffuser. Lemon and Orange are bright and happy, while Lavender is calming and relaxing. 

This is a great blend to diffuse as you journal, meditate or simply sit and talk with a loved one at the end of the day.
Patchouli, Orange and Lavender - oh my! This blend is for all the Patchouli lovers out there... and for the non-lovers too!

Adding the sweet scent of Orange and the herbaceous scent of Lavender help round out the earthy scent of Patchouli in the Peace & Calming blend. Peace & Calming is one of our favorites for creating a serene environment!

Add this blend to your diffuser during gathering with family and friends or during family time in the evenings for a blend that is sweet and grounding.

Flowers are an international symbol of love and devotion, and for good reason! They remind us of the beauty in relationships, the opportunity for growth, and they add such life to a space - much like our connections with those around us!

Diffuse this sweet, slightly floral blend any time of day and especially when you're needing some connection and self love.
Did you know that the Joy essential oil blend was originally called 'Love'? This blend is wonderful for fostering connection - both to others and to our inner self!

Add in the happy, calming scent of Tangerine and the grounding aroma of Frankincense, and you have a diffuser blend that is wonderful for starting your day off on the right foot.

Diffuse this blend during prayer and meditation or during time with those you love.

This uplifting, unassuming blend has quickly become one of our favorites - both in the diffuser and as a perfume blend!

Bergamot and Grapefruit are bright and happy, Clary Sage is light and floral, and Vanilla is warming and inviting.

These scents pair well together to create a blend that is slightly romantic and incredibly welcoming.


Ylang Ylang is the oil of romance! Ylang Ylang petals were traditionally placed upon the beds of newlyweds as a symbol of love and connection.

This floral oil pairs well with the bright, happy notes of Orange. Adding Idaho Blue Spruce rounds out the romantic atmosphere while fostering open connection with your loved one.

Add this blend to your diffuser during date night or anytime you want to foster romantic connection.
