Hey ya’ll!! This week I have thinking about deep cleaning in my kitchen.  I don’t know about y’all, but this is something I dread doing, but love to have done, once I am finished.  

This time, I’m really focused on using eco friendly products and essential oils in my cleaning.  Grease and grime gets everywhere in the kitchen.  That’s probably why the kitchen is one of the hardest rooms in the whole house to clean.  Using essential oils really helps cut through all this, sanitizes, and makes your whole kitchen smell amazing!!

Here are some of the oils I like to use in my cleaning…

Oregano Oil-damp & dark places

On Guard Oil-counters, kitchen, & all purpose

Tea Tree Oil-toilets, sinks, showers, washing machine odor, makeup brushes, & exercise mats

Lemon Oil-toilets, skinks, showers, floors, stainless steel, & wood

Lavender Oil-deodorizing, laundry, & carpets

Peppermint Oil-windows, mirrors, & pest...

I want to give a huge shout out to one of my FAVORITE essential oils….lemon!  I love lemon! I love the smell! I love the taste and I LOVE what lemon does for the body.

Lemon oil is one of the most versatile of all the essential oils.  It cleanses and purifies the surfaces and the air.  Add a couple drops to a diffuser to help promote a positive mood.    

Add a drop or two of lemon oil to your water for a refreshing treat.  Using this oil internally, naturally cleanses the body and aids in digestion.    

Below are a list of ways that I like to use lemon essential oil around my home.  I promise, if you try one of these all natural tips, in your home, you will be hooked.   

• One to three drops removes sticky grease stains.
• Freshen your laundry by adding one drop to the final rinse cycle. 
• Mix with water for a natural cleaning spray.
• Sooth a sore throat by adding a drop or two to a cup of warm tea.
• Brighten your...

So… I figured what better way to follow up our Essential Oil Resolutions…than with some super easy Essential Oil Organization Tips!!  

Now that your supply of essential oils is growing, you need some practical ways to organize them.  If your oils are organized and accessible you will be so much more likely of using them daily.

I love to put labels on my lids!  I am a huge a fan of paper products, so I love a good sticker!  Other than giving your oil bottles some extra flair, lid stickers help you avoid picking up the wrong oil.  You can get lid stickers directly from doTERRA, Amazon, Etsy, or from various bottle suppliers.  Look around and find the ones that you like best.

You will want to store your oils out in the open, where you’re most likely to use them.  I have mine organized in an antique spice rack in my kitchen, on a shelf in my bedroom, and I store my extra oils in an oil box.  There are tons of ideas out there,...

ESTABLISH A BEDTIME ROUTINE USING ESSENTIAL OILS. 

Essential oils are an amazing way to close out your day.  They help you wind down from a hard day…  Diffuse in the air, or rub on your feet, or down your spine at night for tons of health benefits while you sleep.  

Below are some ways that you can use essential oils at bedtime… 

Take an essential oil bath.  Baths are a great way to release stress, tension, and toxins from your body.  Add some epson salts and your favorite oil to a warm bath and relax.  Baths are a great way to help kids unwind before bed.

Hey ya’ll!!  We are officially one week into our Essential Oils Resolutions. How’s it going so far?  Were you able to use at least one oil every day last week?  I can happily say “I did”!! One day, all I did was run my diffusers, but that counts! 

This week, let's jump right into our 2nd Essential Oil Resolution.

TRY A NEW ESSENTIAL OIL EVERY MONTH! 

This is a GREAT resolution that I am super excited about!!  This resolution keeps you from falling into an essential oil rut, using the same oils over and over.  

By using a variety of oils you benefit from tons of different therapeutic qualities.

You might just discover a new favorite oil too.  This is how I discovered Spearmint early on in my oil journey.  I was thinking “I have peppermint…Why do I need Spearmint?” Little did I know.  Spearmint is amazing, and I’m so happy I found this gem.  

So I know what you’re...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!  I am so excited about the coming new year and all the adventure it brings….maybe a couple less than last year.  LOL!!

Today, we are going to dive in-depth into our 1st Essential Oil Resolution.

USE AT LEAST ONE ESSENTIAL OIL EVERY DAY!  

Now I bet you're thinking…”I already do that.”  Think back over the past year.  How many times have you thought?  “I’ll start my diffuser later.”  Or “tomorrow I’ll start using that roller.”   Or you forget to rub oils on your kiddos before bed?

It happens…I do it too and I’m the “Crazy Oil Lady”!! 

Now do you see why we need this resolution?  Below are some tips. 

Start your day using your oils.  Start your diffusers in the morning with a motivational or a wake up blend.  Use an On Guard roller, on your kids, before they head off to school.  You’ll start their day...
