Oh my goodness!!  Did anyone take a step outside this morning and freeze?  It’s cold!!  

The temperature change shocked me and reminded me that Old Man Winter is on the way.  I try to always be a “glass half full” type of person so I’ll tell you first what I LOVE about Winter…fires, warm drinks, comfy blankets, Christmas, and the occasional snow.  Now I’ll be honest……Winter can also be a hard season. The Winter time brings some of the darkest and coldest days of the year.  Add in Covid and this Winter will no doubt be hard.  

So to bring some soothing comfort and warmth into your home, I’m going to give you TEN… Yes, you read that right, TEN amazing diffuser blends to help you chase away the Winter blues.

I don't know what it is right now, but I could use all the relaxation tips and tricks i can get. 

I have learned that you can't give from an empty well, but sometimes taking time out for ourselves can be hard. Maybe we feel guilty? Or maybe there's just no time? Whatever the reason, it is okay. 

Try diffusing my favorite blends for relaxation. I keep my diffusers going all day long. Not only does it make the house smell amazing, but it calms my nerves and everyone else who's under the roof. 

It's a win-win for everyone.

Do you have a favorite relaxation blend? Tell me about it! 

Until next time y'all, woo-sah.

XXOO!
