If You're Feeling Diffuser Blends - July 2025

If You're Feeling...
Summer Vacation Diffuser Blends

Summer is a season of movement - of memories in the making, sun-warmed days, and spontaneous joy. Whether you're packing for a road trip, lounging by the lake, or just dreaming of your next getaway, emotions can run the full spectrum: excitement, freedom, gratitude, boldness, and more.

This collection of diffuser blends is designed to match your mood with the perfect essential oils—so no matter how you're feeling this summer, your space can reflect it. Breathe in, slow down (or rev up!), and let these blends bring your summer story to life.

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. 


If You're Feeling... Adventurous - Diffuse: Abundance

For hiking, exploring, or following your curiosity.



If You're Feeling... Playful - Diffuse: Tangerine

Lighthearted and fun - like summer carnivals and carefree laughter.


If You're Feeling... Energized - Diffuse: Motivation

For when your excitement bubbles over - perfect before beach games, packing, or day trips.


If You're Feeling... Bold - Diffuse: Highest Potential

When you're ready to shine, take risks, or say yes to something big.


If You're Feeling... Free - Diffuse: Lime

Inspired by open skies, ocean drives, and wind-in-your-hair moments.


If You're Feeling... Grateful - Diffuse: Present Time

For soaking up the beauty of the now - sunsets, family dinners, or quiet mornings.

Whether you're looking to boost confidence, deepen your sense of love, or maintain calmness amidst the excitement, these specially selected oils provide a harmonious accompaniment to your once-in-a-lifetime celebration. Embrace each moment with the perfect scent to match your emotions, ensuring your wedding day is both memorable and magical.

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!!

If You're Feeling Diffuser Blends - Feb 2025

If You're Feeling...
Love is in the Air Diffuser Blends

Sometimes, emotions can feel overwhelming or hard to pin down, but your environment can play a powerful role in helping you process those feelings. Diffusing essential oils tailored to your mood can not only create a calming atmosphere but also help you navigate whatever you're going through. Now matter what you're feeling, there is an oil that is your perfect match for finding balance.

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. 



If You're Feeling... Lonely - 
Diffuse: Ylang Ylang

Ylang Ylang’s sweet, floral aroma promotes feelings of joy and inner peace, making it an excellent choice for easing feelings of loneliness. It uplifts the spirit and fosters emotional connection, helping to replace isolation with a sense of comfort and positivity. Diffusing Ylang Ylang creates a serene and nurturing atmosphere.


If You're Feeling... Giddy - Diffuse: Orange

Orange is vibrant and uplifting, known for its ability to enhance feelings of excitement, playfulness, and positivity. Its sweet, citrusy scent stimulates the senses, making it perfect for moments of lighthearted joy. Diffusing Orange instantly brightens your mood and fills your space with a cheerful energy.


If You're Feeling... Heartbroken - Diffuse: Bergamot

Bergamot’s citrusy yet warm aroma is both uplifting and soothing, offering comfort during times of emotional pain. Known for its ability to balance mood and reduce stress, it helps restore confidence and optimism. Diffusing Bergamot creates a calming environment where healing can begin.


If You're Feeling... Hopeful - Diffuse: Hope

Hope is a specially formulated blend designed to inspire optimism and restore faith during challenging times. Its uplifting aroma encourages a sense of possibility, helping you stay focused on brighter days ahead. Diffusing Hope fills your space with a comforting sense of renewal and courage.


If You're Feeling... Overlooked - Diffuse: White Angelica

White Angelica is a protective blend that creates an empowering shield against negativity, promoting feelings of security and self-worth. Its calming and uplifting aroma is perfect for those feeling unappreciated, offering reassurance and emotional grounding. Diffusing White Angelica helps you reconnect with your inner strength and value.


If You're Feeling... Enchanted - Diffuse: Jasmine

Jasmine’s exotic, floral scent is renowned for its romantic and captivating qualities. It evokes a sense of wonder and charm, making it ideal for moments of enchantment. Diffusing Jasmine creates an atmosphere of magic and allure, perfect for igniting creativity and passion.

These oils are powerful tools to support and uplift your emotional well-being, each offering a unique aromatic experience tailored to specific feelings.

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!!

Christmas Carols Diffuser Blends - Dec 2024

Christmas Carols Diffuser Blends

Celebrate the holiday season with these fun, uplifting diffuser blends, inspired by classic Christmas carols! These blends capture the joy, nostalgia, and magic of your favorite holiday songs, creating a festive atmosphere perfect for any occasion. 

Plus, these oils are wonderful for supporting our bodies and minds during the winter months! Fill your home with the essence of your favorite holiday tunes and create a warm and festive atmosphere that celebrates the magic of the season.

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!!

Orange essential oil has a bright aroma that is believed to bring joy, peace, and happiness to those who possess it. Cinnamon Bark essential oil is the oil of wealth from the Orient. Black Spurce essential oil has an aromatic influence that brings a feeling of balance and grounding. This is THE blend for the season, so no matter how you use it, make sure to have it around you this month.

This crowd favorite blend combines Copaiba, Myrtle, and Peppermint with four different types of Eucalyptus (including Eucalyptus Blue) to create a powerful, invigorating combination. It is the perfect companion for respiratory needs and has a sweet, crisp eucalyptus aroma that is wonderful for cleaning and DIYs!

Hello! I'm Jennifer Meckel

 

I am very passionate about helping you achieve the best YOU that you can be!


A little about myself. I live in the Pacific Northwest in Washington State. I am married to a wonderful and supportive man named Sean since 2003 - all wonderful years. We have two smart and sassy daughters, Emmy is 10 and in 4th grade in the Mandarin Immersion program and Lilly is 6 and in kindergarten. I like to paper craft and make my own cards, I like to sew (though don’t have much time for that lately) and I just returned to belly dancing now that Lilly is getting bigger.


I’ve been using essential oils and infused products for since October 2015 and absolutely love this lifestyle and how it makes me and my family feel. I started my oily journey after sitting next to another mom at a play date.  We started talking about my infertility issues, and she suggested I try Young Living’s essential oils to support my hormones.  After a year of intentionally exercising, eating better, and using oils to support my hormones and emotions, I became pregnant with Lilly, right before my first time attending the International YL Convention in Salt Lake City in 2016. There is so much more to tell about this story, and I’m open and willing to share with you, if you are interested.


So, tell me more about yourself!  Tell me about the season of life you are in now. Tell me about your family. 


In health, wellness, and abundance!
