Why I love the Home Essentials Kit

Recently, a friend on my Facebook page asked me what my favorite kid applications are using the Home Essentials Kit. First of all, the Home Essentials Kit is my VERY favorite kit of all time! Seriously. It is an AMAZING value! My #1 favorite thing about this kit is that it comes with a diffuser. There are 3 ways to use essential oils: topically, aromatically, and internally. With kids, you MUST incorporate aromatic use to take full advantage of what essential oils have to offer you. I am always diffusing something. At night, it's usually Breathe or Serenity, sometimes Arborvitae. During the day it's usually a citrus, my favorites are Lemon and Wild Orange. Stay tuned for more on the Home Essentials Kit.

Back to School – For GIRLS, Part 7

Something that is absolutely essential to hormone health is getting plenty of Omega 3s. Unfortunately, due to the depleting nutrients in our natural food supply, it is difficult to get enough through food alone. I recently started giving this to my kids along with their A2Z vitamins every morning. It’s called IQ Mega. It tastes like Wild Orange. The texture is... Well, it’s pure oil, so, you know. The dose is 1 teaspoon a day. If you have a daughter, I would definitely recommend trying this out. Unless she’s a bit older and can swallow pills. Then I would recommend the regular Omega Complex softgel by dōTerra that comes as part of the Lifelong Vitality Pack. I take the vegan version, which does not contain fish oil, but contains lots of other omegas. At any rate, give yourself and your daughters enough Omega 3s and ALL of your hormones will thank you!

Back to School: What OILS will help? Part 6

If I were sending my daughter off to school in the morning. another oil I would apply would be something citrus-y over her heart. Lemon, Wild Orange, or Citrus Bliss would be good candidates. I would apply a citrus oil of her choice and remind her to seize the day, to approach life with enthusiasm, to be kind and uplift others along the way, to feel happy and grateful about learning and about being with people. Do you notice how, for me, the physical and the emotional ailments and resources are very much interconnected? I have found through my own research and experience that they really are.
