  • 2-3 drops Cinnamon Bark Vitality essential oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

    Step 2 - Whip the mixture on medium speed until it's light and fluffy – about 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a mason jar, seal the lid, and place a festive ribbon on it. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
    Step 3 - Add a card that reads: Use this sweet cinnamon whipped butter on warm bread, pancakes, waffles, or as a delicious topping for muffins and scones. Enjoy your  festive treat!
Herbed Cooking & Grilling Salts

To a pint sized mason jar mix together:
  • 1 cup coarse Himalayan salt
  • 5 drops Rosemary Vitality essential oil
  • 5 drops Oregano Vitality essential oil (optional)
  • Roughly chopped fresh rosemary
    Add a note tied to the jar that says: Use your herb-infused salt for grilling vegetables, meats, or as a seasoning for baked dishes. It can also be sprinkled on roasted potatoes or used as a finishing salt for soups and salads!
Homemade Sugar Cookie Mix
In a clean, dry mason jar, layer the ingredients in the following order:
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
    Close the lid tightly and add a decorative label and ribbon with the following instructions for baking the cookies. 
To Make Sugar Cookies:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Gather Wet Ingredients:
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
    Step 1 - In a large bowl, whip 1 cup softened butter until smooth, then add 1 egg and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract.
    Step 2 - Add the mix from the mason jar to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Add 5 drops of Lemon Vitality.

    Step 4 - Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.

Home for the Holidays Diffuser Blends - Nov 2024

Home for the Holidays
Diffuser Blends

It's the time of year when we naturally start to slow down and savor the beauty around us, and these diffuser blends will help set the stage to do just that.

Rich in warm, spicy oils like Cinnamon Bark and Clove, these blends will also help show some love to our immune, adrenal, and respiratory systems (all of which need some TLC this time of year!). The woodsy oils in these blends help calm our minds and bodies and create the coziest holiday home. So fill up your diffuser, and keep it running all season long!

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. 

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!

To make an epsom salt bath mix - add desired amount of oils (we generally use about 10 drops) to 1 cup of epsom salts, then place under warm running water. Note: we generally avoid 'hot' oils (like Cypress, Oregano, and Lemongrass) in bath recipes. Use your own judgement, or stick to the more soothing and relaxing blends.

To make a 2 oz massage oil from any recipe - double the number of drops (or use your desired amount depending on the essential oils used) to a pump-top bottle, then add V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex or other carrier oil to top off the bottle. Invert to mix, then used as desired.

Happy diffusing!!

Log Cabin

  • 4 drops Patchouli
  • 3 drops Bergamot
  • 3 drops Pine
  • 2 drop Clove
Imagine a cozy little cabin nestled in the woods, a cool breeze blowing by, and the lovely glow of a fire. That is what this diffuser blend is!!

Calming and grounding Patchouli meets the woodsiness of Pine, allowing you to envision the forest. The Clove, Pine and Bergamot bring the warmth and light of a crackling fire. This blend is a little sweet, a little spicy, and a little woodsy… the perfect cozy combination!

Favorite Scarf

  • 4 drops Christmas Spirit
  • 3 drops Idaho Blue Spruce
  • 3 drops Grapefruit
  • 2 drops Clove
Just like the comfort of your favorite scarf, this blend wraps you in the warmth of familiarity. Diffuse it throughout the cooler months to bring some fall and winter hygge into your home!

Christmas Spirit blends Cinnamon Bark, Orange and Spruce - the perfect cozy combination that supports the immune system. It also helps uplift the mind! Add in a little extra spruce (Idaho Blue Spruce!) for some sweetness, the brightness of Grapefruit, and the spice of Clove for the perfect blend. Clove also helps support the immune system and is a powerful antioxidant!


Thankful Heart

  • 4 drops Frankincense
  • 3 drops Joy
  • 3 drops Tangerine
  • 2 drops Bergamot
We believe that a thankful heart is something to cultivate year round! Joy, Tangerine and Frankincense are powerful emotional tools that can help us recenter and focus our minds and hearts on the beauty of life before us.

Joy is uplifting to the emotions, helping us move from feelings of sadness or shut down towards feelings of joy. Frankincense is incredibly grounding and centering to the mind, while Tangerine is uplifting and stimulates creativity, and Bergamot is wonderful for releasing anxieties. Diffuse this blend throughout this season as a cue for your inner self to stop and look around at the beauty surrounding you.

Winter Nap

  • 4 drops Lavender
  • 3 drops Northern Light Black Spruce
  • 2 drops Vetiver
  • 2 drops Orange
Imagine an overcast day in late fall, a warm fire crackling away while you are snuggled in a blanket on the couch… the perfect setting for a winter nap! That is the essence of this diffuser blend. Warm, inviting and soothing.

Lavender and Vetiver help our minds to stop racing and promote feelings of calm. Northern Lights Black Spruce is grounding and soothing to the body and mind, and Orange is uplifting to our emotions. It is a wonderfully soothing blend that smells amazing – this combination will also rival any scented candle! 

Holiday Hygge

  • 4 drops Pine
  • 3 drops Orange
  • 3 drops Cinnamon Bark
  • 2 drops Bergamot
This blend is perfect whenever you need a cozy blend to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere! Pine is grounding and calming and also supports the immune system. Orange and Bergamot are uplifting and stimulate creativity. Cinnamon bark evokes the feelings of the season and has its own health benefits, making this blend great for your health while also rivaling the most popular scented candles!

Comfort & Joy

  • 4 drops Christmas Spirit
  • 3 drops Frankincense
  • 3 drops Bergamot
  • 2 drops Lavender
The holidays are a time for gathering with loved ones, but let's be honest - sometimes that can be an emotional experience. Whether it's stress, family dynamics, or just the hustle and bustle of going here and there, this blend feels like a warm hug in the middle of the chaos.

Christmas Spirit brings the cozy, festive feeling we all want, while Frankincense adds a grounding element so you can feel calm and centered. Lavender softens the edges of tension, and a bit of Bergamot brings a bright, uplifting twist to help ease anxious feelings.

Diffuse this blend when gathering with family, or whenever you need a little extra emotional boost! It's like wrapping yourself in comfort while still embracing the joy of the season. Perfect for keeping the holiday spirit alive—even during those more difficult moments.

DiGize Vitality Essential Blend

DiGize is another oil to always have on hand. It is our go-to for digestive support anytime we need it - both daily and acutely. Make sure to grab this one before you head out to all your summer gatherings!

Add DiGize to V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex or other carrier and massage it over the abdomen to soothe digestive needs.

Make a ‘Tummy' roller to apply over the stomach as needed for digestive support. To a 10 mL roller bottle, add:
  • 15 drops DiGize
  • 10 drops each Lemon & Peppermint (optional)
  • Carrier of choice
Apply DiGize diluted or in a roller over the stomach and liver to support release of toxic emotions. This works best when paired with strong affirmations and/or prayer.
 
When traveling, inhale DiGize directly from the bottle for soothing comfort. Or pair it with Peppermint in a travel diffuser.

DiGize Vitality is the exact same oil as DiGize essential oil blend, simply labeled differently so it can be ingested. That means you can use the DiGize Vitality the same way you would DiGize essential oil blend - in the diffuser and in all your favorite roller blends as well.

Support your health from the inside out with daily DiGize capsules. Add 1-2 drops DiGize Vitality to a vegetarian capsule and top off with a carrier oil (olive oil or V6).

Add a drop or two of DiGize Vitality to your favorite herbal tea for a digestive support twist.

Whenever you need some extra digestive health, add a drop of DiGize Vitality and a drop of Lemon Vitality (optional) to a large glass of water or to a vegetarian capsule for relief.

See the DiGize Spotlight for TONS of ways to use this oil!

Abundance Essential Oil Blend

This rich and spicy oil is designed to help us release fears associated with a poverty mindset. Even when we don't realize it, we have skills, abilities, tools, opportunities, contacts, teachers, and wisdom right at our fingertips. Abundance oil blend (and intentional practices!) can help us to realize this fact and step into those things in front of us! 

Daily Habits with Abundance

Diffuse as you work, read, and contact others.

Dab onto letters, packages, and envelopes you are sending out to business contacts.

Apply to your wrists and over your heart as you pray over your team, your time, and your future in this business.

Put on the edges of your calendar and planner so that every time you are thinking of your time commitments, you are shifting to a viewpoint of abundance and choice.

Drop on a diffuser bracelet in your purse or wallet and stop thinking of money as something in short supply. Money will ALWAYS be there and there will be ways to attain it. TIME? That's the one you guard. Use your time to find ways to pursue freedom and residual income where your money works FOR YOU.

Make a daily perfume or cologne roller:
  • Abundance, Tangerine, Hope
  • Abundance, Lavender, Frankincense
  • Abundance, Vetiver, Bergamot
  • Abundance, Vanilla, Lavender
  • Place 1-2 drops of Abundance on the crown of your head each day to focus your intention on hope and vitality.
Make a daily Gratitude Roller:
  • 10 drops Joy 
  • 7 drops Orange
  • 5 drops Abundance
    Top with a carrier oil and roll on liberally + frequently!
Make DIY Oil-Infused Shower Melts
  • 1 cup Baking Soda 
  • 1/2 cup High Quality Epsom Salt  
  • 30 drops Abundance
  • Water (about 2-3 teaspoons)
  • Silicone mold 
    Step 1 - Pour the baking soda and epsom salt into a mixing bowl. Slowly add water, about 2 teaspoons, and mix well. If the mixture is not holding, add another teaspoon of water.
    Step 2 - Add essential oil(s) of your choice and mix well. Scoop into silicone molds and let sit overnight. Remove and store in an airtight container.
    To use - simply place a shower melt on the floor of the shower near the water but not directly in the stream. Enjoy!
Make a DIY Whipped Body Butter
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup pure organic shea butter
  • 1 Tbsp Vitamin E oil
  • 20 drops Abundance
  • 15 drops Tangerine
    Step 1 - Melt together coconut oil, shea butter and cocoa butter, then add in vitamin E oil and whisk.
    Step 2 - Refrigerate until almost half solidified, then use a mixer to whip for 1 to 2 minutes until a fluffy consistency is achieved. Add in essential oils then place in a glass jar.

Thankful Heart Diffuser Blends - Nov 2023

Thankful Heart Diffuser Blends

This collection of diffuser blends has some of our favorites for the cooler months. This time of year we naturally start to slow down and savor the beauty around us, and these diffuser blends are perfect for the season.

Many of these blends include ‘spice' oils like Cinnamon Bark and Clove. These essential oils are supportive of the immune system, are antioxidants (with Clove being a powerhouse antioxidant!), and support the endocrine and adrenal systems. 

This set of blends also includes ‘tree' oils like Northern Lights Black Spruce, Patchouli, and Pine, which are known for their grounding and calming properties. Further, tree oils are wonderful for releasing emotional blocks, fostering emotional intimacy and connection, and supporting the body's natural response to microbes.

Citrus oils also show up in these blends to bring a bright, uplifting atmosphere that is warm and familiar. Each of the oils in these blends supports the body in a unique way, both physically and emotionally! 

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 celebrate and be thankful this month.

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!

Happy diffusing!!

  • Add 4-5 drops of essential oils to each dryer ball.
  • Let the dryer balls air dry for about an hour or to speed up the process you can dry them alone. This will allow the oil to absorb into the wool and not transfer to your clothes. 
  • When it's time to dry your clothes - toss the dryer balls into the dryer with your clothing. Refresh the oils every 4-5 loads or more often if you prefer a stronger scent.
Scented Holiday Cards

DIY Oil Infused Bottle Brush Trees
Give your bottle brush trees a little something extra this year - infuse them with festive essential oils!

  • Distilled water
  • Witch hazel 
  • Oils of your choice! We love Believe, Christmas Spirit, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Winter Nights, Orange or Pine
  • Bottle brush trees 
    Fill the jar or pitcher almost full of water and add a splash of witch hazel. Add about 20-30 drops of oil and stir with a silicone or metal spoon. Hold your tree upside down for about a minute in the water, then take it out and let it air dry! 
Spiced Orange & Cranberry Garland
This is one of our favorite things to do every year. It is beautiful, smells amazing, adds a festive touch to any room and is so easy to make!
  • About 5 oranges or a mix of oranges, clementines and grapefruit for varied sizes and colors
  • Essential oils: Christmas Spirit, Cinnamon Bark, Vanilla, Clove, Believe, Thieves
  • Fresh cranberries and cinnamon sticks
    Step 1 - Slice your oranges in circles to ¼ to ½ inch in thickness and arrange them on a non-stick surface or parchment paper. Pour 2-3 drops of essential oils on each slice, then set them in a cool oven and turn the temperature onto the lowest setting your oven will allow. (If your oven does not go below 300, set it there and use a wooden spoon to prop the oven open slightly and allow some heat to dissipate.)
    Step 2 - Leave the slices in the oven for about 5 hours, then shut the oven off and leave the oranges in there overnight or until completely cool. They will be fairly dry, but will continue to dry out over time. You don't want to over dry them in the oven because they can start to burn!
    Step 3 - Once they are dry, string them with some twine, alternating with a few varying sized slices and a cranberry or two, a tied cinnamon stick, whatever you like! Hang them in your home for some delicious smelling holiday cheer!

    Step 3 - Serve in short glasses garnished with more apple slices, pomegranate seeds, and cinnamon stick stirrers.
Spiced Cinnamon Cider
A steaming mug of cider is the perfect remedy to cold, wintry days. Serve it after a day of sledding or an evening of caroling to warm up guests from the inside out.
  • 8 cups apple juice or cider
  • 4 cups orange juice
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 9 drops Cinnamon Bark Vitality
  • 6 drops Cardamom Vitality
  • 4 drops Clove Vitality
  • 4 drops Nutmeg Vitality
  • 3 drops Citrus Fresh Vitality
  • Sliced oranges
  • Cinnamon sticks
    Add all ingredients to a large pot and stir to combine. Heat until simmering. Simmer for 30 minutes. Serve warm in a mug. Garnish with sliced oranges and cinnamon sticks.

Simple Crafts for the Holidays

Whether your kiddos are coming out of school for a few weeks or you just want some simple, fun activities for the season, here are some of our favorite festive crafts to do together this season!

Clay Leaf Dish

This simple craft gets everyone outdoors and can even be a school project with just a little imagination! It makes a lovely oil tray or a handmade gift.
  • Air dry clay 
  • Craft paper 
  • Rolling pin
  • Craft paint (we like the metallic colors!) + brushes
  • Modge Podge gloss or other sealer 
  • Various leaves from your yard
    Step 1 - Cut out a piece of air dry clay, then roll it out onto craft paper to about 1/2 inch thick, making sure your leaf will fit. Then, press your leaf (vein side down) onto the clay. Remove the leaf from the clay, and cut around the outline with a knife, then remove the excess clay from around your imprint.
    Step 2 - Go around the perimeter of the leaf and gently press the sides up and in to create a small edge. Allow the clay to air dry and harden on a baking rack for 24 hours.
    Step 3 - Paint! Once the paint is dry, cover with a coat of Modge Podge gloss, then dry for 24 hours. After the sealer is dry, have your children sign the back and write the year. 
Essential Oil Infused Play Dough
This is a fun one to get your children to make with you OR to make and surprise them with after school!
  • 2 cups flour (can use gluten-free if desired)
  • 1 cup salt
  • 2 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 Tbsp olive or coconut oil
  • 2 cups cold water
  • 5 drops essential oil: Lavender, Peace & Calming, Tangerine, Believe 
  • Natural food coloring, optional
    Step 1 - Mix flour, salt, cream of tartar, oil, and water in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the dough has reached the right consistency.
    Step 2 - Let cool, split into 3 balls, and knead in essential oils and optional food coloring until it is distributed evenly throughout each ball of playdough. Store in airtight container.
We hope you enjoy this Holiday Handbook. May your days be merry and bright!

As Always, I'm here to support you.

All recipes are for a 2 oz glass spray bottle. Add essential oils to the bottle, then add a splash of witch hazel, then fill with filtered water. Invert the bottle a few times before use.

It features the refreshing scents of Wintergreen, Peppermint and Balsam Copaiba essential oils, and Vanilla oleoresin, each of which has an incredible ability to support our bodies during the winter months.

Winter Wonderland Diffuser Recipes - Dec 2022

Winter Wonderland Diffuser Blends


Whether you're walking in a winter wonderland or basking in the warm sunshine this time of year, 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 a 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 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 December. Get the everyday products you need and get free oils to use in the diffuser too!

Happy diffusing!!

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. Vanilla and Ylang Ylang are welcoming and uplifting, making this blend perfect for the winter season.



Give your immune system a boost and make your home smell like mulled cider - all at the same time!

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


This blend of tree oils + citrus is a crowd favorite for calm nights and sweet dreams all year long, but its soothing scents are especially welcoming this time of year. 

Cedarwood is earthy and calming, Lavender is soothing and relaxing. Orange and Frankincense pair together for a calming and uplifting duo that also provides support for the immune system!

Add this combo to your diffuser before bed and drift away into sweet sleep.



This blend is sweet and welcoming, just like the iconic winter candy, the candy cane!

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. 

Add this trio to your diffuser anytime you want a little winter day pick me up!


Spruce, spice and everything nice!

This blend of Believe, 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!

And if you don't have Believe, substitute a mix of fir and pine, then add it to your order asap!




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.

Evergreen Essence Oil Spotlight - Nov 2022

Evergreen Essence Essential Oil Spotlight

If you have ever wanted to bring the peace, tranquility and aroma of an evergreen forest to your space, then this is the blend for you!!

Evergreen Essence essential oil blend is formulated with various conifer oils, including Pine, White Fir, Spruce, Black Pine, Idaho Blue Spruce, Lodgepole Pine, Scotch Pine, and Pinyon Pine. This combination feels like walking through a snow-draped forest!!

Just A Drop of Evergreen Essence…
  • Has a rich conifer aroma
  • Brings nature's tranquility inside your home
  • Contains multiple varieties of Pine essential oil, which are wonderful for immune support
  • Calming and grounding
  • Conifer oils provide muscle and tension support
Evergreen Essence & Emotions

Evergreen Essence is a blend of conifer oils, all of which contain alpha-pinene, a constituent that helps the mind and body reach a calming, peaceful environment. Tree oils can be a wonderful tool for processing feelings of Unimportant, Un-nurtured or Disempowered. The Spruce and Evergreen family of oils are the ones to reach for when you feel like you are comparing yourself to others, are feeling undervalued or as though your unique voice has no place. The alternate side to feeling unimportant is Empowerment. When we can rest secure in who we are then comparison melts away and our unique blend of magic can shine!

A 2011 study in Pharmacognosy Magazine looked at the anxiolytic effects of an alcohol based pine needle extract and its ability to soothe depression in rats. Bottom line: however you approach it, pine and other conifer essential oils can be powerful health tools! 
Interestingly, we are often drawn to these oils during the colder months, when we are gathering with friends and family, remembering years past, and even grieving the things we have lost. Pine, Spruce, and Fir are calming and grounding and help us connect to feelings of strength and protection, which is something we need while processing those emotions. Adding Evergreen Essence to your daily routine is a wonderful way to support mental and emotional health during these times! 

Read more about how to process and release emotions in this powerful book Releasing Emotional Patterns with Essential Oils.

Holiday Spice Wool Dryer Balls
There's something about the smell of warm fresh laundry fresh from the dryer - especially when combining Thieves Laundry Soap and essential oil infused wool dryer balls! 
  • Organic wool dryer balls
  • Essential oils of choice - Christmas Spirit, Peppermint + Vanilla, Cinnamon Bark + Orange, Stress Away + Peppermint, Cardamom & Orange
    Step 1 - Add 4-5 drops of essential oils to each dryer ball.
    Step 2 - Let the dryer balls air dry for about an hour or to speed up the process you can dry them alone. This will allow the oil to absorb into the wool and not transfer to your clothes. Even better, add oils to the wool balls after you empty dry clothes from the dryer so you're all set for the next load.
    Step 3 - When it's time to dry your clothes - toss the dryer balls into the dryer with your clothing. Refresh the oils every 4-5 loads or more often if you prefer a stronger scent.

DIY Oil Infused Bottle Brush Trees
Give your bottle brush trees a little something extra this year - infuse them with festive essential oils!
  • Large pitcher or jar (big enough for your trees)
  • Distilled water
  • Witch hazel 
  • Oils of your choice! We love Believe, Christmas Spirit, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Winter Nights, Orange or Pine
  • Bottle brush trees 
  • Fill the jar or pitcher almost full of water and add a splash of witch hazel. Add about 20-30 drops of oil and stir with a silicone or metal spoon. Hold your tree upside down for about a minute in the water, then take it out and let it air dry! 
Spiced Orange & Cranberry Garland
This is one of our favorite things to do every year. It is beautiful, smells amazing, adds a festive touch to any room and is so easy to make!
  • About 5 oranges or a mix of oranges, clementines and grapefruit for varied sizes and colors
  • Essential oils: Christmas Spirit, Cinnamon Bark, Vanilla, Clove, Believe, Thieves
  • Fresh cranberries and cinnamon sticks
    Step 1 - Slice your oranges in circles to ¼ to ½ inch in thickness and arrange them on a non-stick surface or parchment paper. Pour 2-3 drops of essential oils on each slice, then set them in a cool oven and turn the temperature onto the lowest setting your oven will allow. (If your oven does not go below 300, set it there and use a wooden spoon to prop the oven open slightly and allow some heat to dissipate.)
    Step 2 - Leave the slices in the oven for about 5 hours, then shut the oven off and leave the oranges in there overnight or until completely cool. They will be fairly dry, but will continue to dry out over time. You don't want to over dry them in the oven because they can start to burn!
    Alternatively, you can use a dehydrator, if you have one.
    Step 3 - Once they are dry, string them with some twine, alternating with a few varying sized slices and a cranberry or two, a tied cinnamon stick, whatever you like! Hang them in your home for some delicious smelling holiday cheer!

Once cooled - use your favorite holiday cookie cutters to create fun shapes. Optional to top with a layer of chocolate frosting (with or without a few drops of Peppermint Vitality) or powdered sugar.

Simple Crafts for the Holidays

Whether your kiddos are coming out of school for a few weeks or you just want some simple, fun activities for the season, here are some of our favorite festive crafts to do together this season!

Clay Leaf Dish
This simple craft gets everyone outdoors and can even be a school project with just a little imagination! It makes a lovely oil tray or a handmade gift.
  • Air dry clay 
  • Craft paper 
  • Rolling pin
  • Craft paint (we like the metallic colors!) + brushes
  • Modge Podge gloss or other sealer 
  • Various leaves from your yard
    Step 1 - Cut out a piece of air dry clay, then roll it out onto craft paper to about 1/2 inch thick, making sure your leaf will fit. Then, press your leaf (vein side down) onto the clay. Remove the leaf from the clay, and cut around the outline with a knife, then remove the excess clay from around your imprint.
    Step 2 - Go around the perimeter of the leaf and gently press the sides up and in to create a small edge. Allow the clay to air dry and harden on a baking rack for 24 hours.
    Step 3 - Paint! Once the paint is dry, cover with a coat of Modge Podge gloss, then dry for 24 hours. After the sealer is dry, have your children sign the back and write the year. 
Essential Oil Infused Play Dough
This is a fun one to get your children to make with you OR to make and surprise them with after school!
  • 2 cups flour (can use gluten-free if desired)
  • 1 cup salt
  • 2 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 Tbsp olive or coconut oil
  • 2 cups cold water
  • 5 drops essential oil: Lavender, Peace & Calming, Tangerine, Believe 
  • Natural food coloring, optional
    Step 1 - Mix flour, salt, cream of tartar, oil, and water in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the dough has reached the right consistency.
    Step 2 - Let cool, split into 3 balls, and knead in essential oils and optional food coloring until it is distributed evenly throughout each ball of playdough. Store in airtight container.
We hope you enjoy this Holiday Handbook. Bring the family together and try some of these projects! May your days be merry & bright!

DIY Pumpkin Pie Spice Candles - Nov 2022

DIY Pumpkin Pie Spice Candles

This fun autumn DIY is perfect for bringing the warm, cozy feeling of the season into your home! Cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom and more combine for a perfect fall scent. Adding whole spices adds even more scent and beauty to these candles, making them a wonderful gift as well!

Supplies Needed:

Step 1 - Thread the wicks through a wick holder and apply the wicks tabs firmly to the bottom of your jar or container using glue dots or hot glue.

Step 2 - Place the jars on a baking sheet/tray and keep in the oven set at the lowest temperature until you are ready to pour the wax. Warming the containers helps the wax to distribute in the container evenly.

Step 3 - Melt beeswax in a double boiler. Heat and stir until the wax has fully melted and no solids remain.

Step 4 - Let the wax cool to 155°F / 68°C. Then stir in the essential oils

Step 5 - Carefully fill each container to about 1 cm below the rim of the jar. Be careful that the wicks stay in the center of the container.

Step 6 - Sprinkle with a pinch of pumpkin spice and arrange whole spices as desired. You'll know you can decorate the candle when the wax becomes cloudy and sets around the edges.

Step 7 - Let the candles cool at room temperature (not the refrigerator!) for several hours or better overnight. Allowing the wax to cool slowly will create the best-looking candles and helps to avoid crack.

Step 8 - Once the candles are hard, remove the wick holder and trim the wicks to 1/4 in / 0.6 cm.

Tag me over on Instagram @oilisliving when you make these so we can see!

Cozy Winter Home Essentials in Nov 2022

Essentials for A
Cozy Winter Home

Winter is fully upon us, and this season often brings lots of gatherings and goings-on. We want to make sure we stay above the health line and enjoy this season to its fullest. Here are a few of our must-have products for doing just that!

We definitely recommend ordering these favorites on your Loyalty Rewards order. I mean, is there anything better than your favorite, healthy products showing up on your doorstep each month? What about getting free products and product credits just for ordering things you're already using? Sounds like a winning situation to us! Which is why we love ordering using the Loyalty Rewards. We ditch conventional, toxic products for safe, clean Young Living versions, save money, save time, create a natural home, and get freebies all at the same time! 

To set up a Loyalty order, search for the products on the ‘Essentials' list, then click ‘Add to Loyalty Order.' You can manage your subscriptions by going to ‘My Account' and ‘Loyalty Order'. You can edit your order each month to reflect what you need (hello easy button!), change the order date and shipping options. Just make sure to order 50 PV minimum each month in order to maintain and increase your percentage back in points! Every time you hit a qualifying PV threshold (100 PV, 190 PV, 250 PV and 300 PV), you will automatically add free oils or products to your order!


Stress Away Roll On

Stress Away is your vacation in a bottle - convenient and ready to go with you to the grocery store, school, work, or wherever you need to pretend you're in a beach chair sipping something cold and watching the waves!

Roll this blend over your wrists, chest and behind the neck any time you want a quick vacation.

Thieves Roll On

If there were only one oil we could have in our arsenal, it would probably be Thieves. This blend of Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Rosemary essential oils smells like a warm cup of chai and is a powerhouse when it comes to our health and our homes, and the pre-diluted roll-on makes daily application so easy. Roll this powerhouse blend over your spine daily!

Wanna know more about this immune supporting blend, read these blog posts: 

Pine Essential Oil

Pine essential oil is an underrated one for sure. This tree oil has an uplifting aroma that creates a breath of fresh air anywhere you use it, encourages feelings of positive energy, repels the influence of negative energy, and has some really unique and incredible health benefits!

Read all about Pine essential oil on this month's Oil Supplement Spotlight.

AlkaLime

So many modern foods are loaded with (often hidden!) sugars and stimulants, impeding the body's ability to foster a healthy pH balance. 

AlkaLime works to combat this with its array of high-alkaline salts and other yeast-fighting elements such as citric acid and lemon and lime essential oils! AlkaLime works as a natural alkalizing supplement to maintain optimal pH in the stomach, soothing digestion and occasional upset stomach. This is also a wonderful supplement for those who have dietary sensitivities and experience exposure to a food that is pro-inflammatory for their body!

Read all about this amazing supplement on this month's Supplement Spotlight blog post.

NingXia Red

It's no secret that we are crazy about NingXia Red. Use this incredible supplement for 30 consecutive days and you'll see why! 

Honestly, we're better people when we drink it. Sound a little far-fetched? Think about it. Do cars run better when fueled by the right gas? Yep. Yet we often expect our bodies to run on second-rate, processed, non-fuel. We get worn out, our digestive systems get tired, our cells get dirty, and we need something we can assimilate quickly and easily to go to work. NingXia gives our bodies the boost that we need!

Learn more about NingXia Red:

Christmas Spirit Foaming Hand Soap

Christmas Spirit foaming hand soap is a crowd favorite is a must have for winter! The bright, wintry scent just makes us happy, and our hands stay clean without drying out. Instant foam makes it easy to lather and rinse, while aloe, ginkgo biloba, and green tea extracts condition and moisturize skin for soft, smooth hands, making it ideal for even the most frequent hand washers.

More about other Young Living hand soaps on the Ditch and Switch blog post from June 2022.

Thankful Heart Diffuser Recipes - Nov 2022

Thankful Heart Diffuser Blends

This collection of diffuser blends has some of our favorites for the cooler months. This time of year we naturally start to slow down and savor the beauty around us, and these diffuser blends are perfect for the season.

Many of these blends include ‘spice' oils like Cinnamon Bark and Clove. These essential oils are supportive of the immune system, are antioxidants (with Clove being a powerhouse antioxidant!), and support the endocrine and adrenal systems. This set of blends also includes ‘tree' oils like Northern Lights Black Spruce, Patchouli, and Pine, which are known for their grounding and calming properties.

Further, tree oils are wonderful for releasing emotional blocks, fostering emotional intimacy and connection, and supporting the body's natural response to microbes. Citrus oils also show up in these blends to bring a bright, uplifting atmosphere that is warm and familiar. Each of the oils in these blends supports the body in a unique way, both physically and emotionally!

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 a bit of Autumn to the air and brighten our spirits!

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

Happy diffusing!!

Imagine a cozy little cabin nestled in the woods, a cool breeze blowing by, and the lovely glow of a fire. That is what this diffuser blend is!!

Calming and grounding Patchouli meets the woodsiness of Pine, allowing you to envision the forest. The Clove, Pine and Bergamot bring the crackling fire. 

This blend is a little sweet, a little spicy, and a little woodsy… the perfect cozy combination!


Just like the comfort of your favorite scarf, this blend wraps you in the warmth of familiarity. Diffuse it throughout the cooler months to bring some fall and winter hygge into your home! 

Christmas Spirit is a blend of Cinnamon Bark, Orange and Spruce - the perfect cozy combination that also supports the immune system.

Add in a little extra spruce (Idaho Blue Spruce!) for some sweetness and the spice of Clove for the perfect blend. Clove also helps support the immune system and is a powerful antioxidant!

It may be the season of gratitude, and we believe that a thankful heart is something to cultivate year round!

Joy, Tangerine and Frankincense are powerful emotional tools that can help us recenter and focus our minds and hearts on the beauty of life before us. Joy is uplifting to the emotions, helping us move from feelings of sadness towards joy. Frankincense is incredibly grounding, and Tangerine is uplifting and stimulates creativity.

Diffuse this blend throughout this season as a cue for your inner self to stop and look around at the beauty surrounding you. 


Imagine an overcast autumn day, a warm fire going and being snuggled on a blanket on the couch.

That is this diffuser blend. Warm, inviting and soothing. Lavender and Vetiver help to promote feelings of calm, 

Northern Lights Black Spruce is grounding and soothing, and Orange is uplifting. This combination will also rival any scented candle!


This blend is perfect whenever you need a calming, cozy blend to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere!

Pine essential oil is grounding and calming and also supports the immune system. Orange and Bergamot are uplifting and stimulate creativity. Cinnamon bark evokes the feelings of the season and has its own health benefits, making this blend great for your health while also rivaling the most popular scented candles!



The first snowfall of winter is such a magical time. The air is cool and crisp, all bundled up in warm, cozy clothes or snuggled up by a fire.

Idaho Blue Spruce, Pine, Jade Lemon and Wintergreen are key players in this blend, supporting the immune and respiratory systems (perfect for the cooler months!) and also lifting the spirits and mind.

These oils combine to create a blend that is crisp, bright and fresh, just like the air before the first snowfall.

  • Orange & Clove essential oils
    Step 1 - Poke a hole on the side/ bottom of the cauldron/pumpkin if plastic for the diffuser's cord. If using metal, simply set the diffuser in and lift the cord out the back.
    Step 2 - Fill your diffuser with water, add oils, turn on. Add spider web or tissue paper on top of the cauldron as desired!
Anthropologie Inspired Blends: Diffuse it, Roll it, Spray it!!
These are some of our favorite diffuser blends for the fall season, but they make great rollers and sprays as well! The recipes below are for a standard diffuser and can be adapted easily!

  • To make a diffuser bomb - multiply the quantity of each oil by 10-20 and place in a dropper bottle with a pretty label. (You can also reuse old YL bottles and add a bamboo dropper top.)
  • To make a 10mL roller - have the total number of drops around 30-50 and fill with carrier of choice.
  • To make a 2oz spray - multiply the drops by 3-5, add a splash of witch haze and top with water in a glass spray bottle and add a label.

Chai Spice Wool Dryer Balls
Make your laundry smell like fall with these scented dryer balls! Place 3 drops of each oil onto each wool dryer ball and let sit for a few hours before use (recommended to make sure no oil spots transfer to your laundry). Or simply drop one of each oil onto a ball and use immediately. For even faster use, premix these essential oils in an empty bottle and place in your laundry for easy use.
Pumpkin Succulent Diffuser
Create a cute, fun and festive centerpiece with a pumpkin, some succulents and essential oils! 
  • Plastic pumpkins - real work as well but don't last as long
  • Potting soil
  • Small succulents
  • Natural materials - wood slices, Spanish moss, small pine cones, wood rings, etc. (find them at the craft store)
  • Essential oils of choice
    Step 1 - Simply cut the top off of your pumpkin and scoop out the inside if you're using a real one.
    Step 2 - Fill about 3/4 with soil, then plant 2-3 small succulents into the top.
    Step 3 - Add moss, wood slices and rings, small pinecones, anything fall and festive that will soak in essential oils! Add 3-4 drops of oil to the porous materials for a 'diffuser' or spritz with a DIY room spray (witch hazel + water + EOs) every few days!
    NOTE - If you use a real pumpkin, this will only last about a month at most. Using a plastic or ceramic pumpkin will extend the life of the diffuser/succulents indefinitely.
Festive Wreath Diffuser
Create your own festive wreath (and switch it out each season!) with some florals and essential oils.
DIY Scented Pine Cones
This is a fun one because you get yourself outside and collect pinecones in various shapes and sizes. If you have kids they will love doing this with you!
  • Pinecones gathered from your neighborhood, or unscented ones from the craft store
  • Ceramic, glass, or stainless bowl
  • Essential oils of choice
    Step 1Preheat oven to 200°. Line an old baking sheet with aluminum foil and place pinecones on baking sheet. Bake pinecones for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
    Step 2 - Add pinecones to the bowl, then add essential oils of your choice about 30 total drops. Seal the bowl & shake so that the oils soak into the pinecones. Leave the bowl in a cool dark place for at least one week. The longer you can leave the bowl covered the better your pinecones will be scented.
    Step 3 - Now they are ready to be displayed on your favorite tray!
Cinnamon Pinecone Fire Starters
This craft is a very simple one that my kids LOVE! It starts with gathering pine cones, which is always a fun fall task.
  • Pine cones in various sizes
  • Yarn of desired color (or even dryer lint!)
  • Essential oils
    Step 1 - Gather your pine cones and spray with diluted Thieves Cleaner, then let sit overnight to dry.
    Step 2 - Once dry, wrap the yarn around the pine cones as desired. You can wrap all of it in the center or cover the whole thing - it's up to you! Just weave the yarn through the individual ‘leaves' of the pine cone.
    Step 3 - Drop a few drops of Cinnamon Bark essential oil (or your other favorite fall scents) onto the yarn and let it sit overnight. Store then next to the fireplace, and add 2-3 to the wood when starting a fire!

For the Little Oilers


Pumpkin Pie Play Dough
An activity for the kids with the option of being free of harmful dyes and ingredients and leaves the house and their little hands smelling AMAZING plus it has immune boosting properties! You can make this together, super easy, then let them play the crisp, fall day away!!
  • 2 cups cornstarch
  • 1 cup Kidscents lotion
  • 4 drops Cardamom
  • 2 drops Orange
  • 1 drop Cinnamon bark
  • 1 drop Clove
    Mix all the ingredients together and let their imaginations run wild!
DIY Clay Leaf Tray
This DIY tray is a fun craft for the little ones to make and gift! Before the clay hardens, you can drop essential oils onto it. Choose stronger scents like Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Thieves or Peppermint to ensure more scent. 
  • Air dry clay
  • Craft paper
  • Rolling pin
  • Craft paint (we like the metallic colors)
  • Paint brushes
  • Modge Podge gloss or other sealer
  • Various leaves from your yard
    Step 1 - Explore around your yard and gather your leaves! Cut out a piece of air dry clay, then roll it out about 1/2 inch thick, making sure your leaf will fit fully onto the clay.
    Step 2 - Press your leaf (vein side down) onto the clay. Make sure all parts of the leaf press in so that you get all the pretty nuances of the leaf!
    Step 3 - Remove the leaf from the clay, and cut around the outline with a knife (have adults do this part), then remove the excess air dry clay from around your imprint. Go around the perimeter of the leaf and gently press the sides up and in to create a small edge If adding oils, do so now.
    Step 4 - Allow the clay to air dry and harden. We set ours on a baking rack so that both sides were exposed to air. After 24 hours they had hardened and were ready to paint!
    Step 5 - Paint! Once the paint is dry, cover with a coat of Modge Podge gloss, then let that dry for 24 hours. After the coating is dry, have your children sign the back and write the year.
We hope you enjoy this Autumn Handbook. Bring the family together and try some of these projects!
