Taking a bubble bath can be a fun treat for kids, or part of a relaxing nighttime ritual for adults. However, most store bought bubble baths are full of artificial chemicals, fragrances and can be irritating to your skin. To reduce the chemicals in your home, but still enjoy the benefits of all the bubbles, I recommend making your own bubble bath with essential oils and other ingredients that are gentle on your skin.

While you could add essential oil directly to your bath, essential oils are not water soluble, meaning they won't dissolve in water alone and will sit on top of your bathwater. To resolve this issue, you would normally add essential oils to epsom salt or soap and add it to the water. In this case, the other ingredients in my DIY bubble bath help disperse the oil throughout the water in the same way.

Including an essential oil in your bath is a great choice when you want to create a specific atmosphere. For example, for a relaxing bath, use...

Is it just me or ya’ll as just as tired of this winter weather as I am? Well hopefully we are getting close to putting this cold, dry weather behind us and we can use these all natural homemade lotion bars to nourish our wintertime skin! 

Lotion Bars are a wonderful, natural alternative to traditional lotions and they are easy to make at home. Lotion bars are far more concentrated than a typical liquid lotion because they do not contain any water, and the handheld bars look like a bar of soap. But because they contain no water, lotion bars do not require any preservatives and are shelf stable for at least 6 months!

Below is my simple, easy recipe!! Feel free to change it up with different oils to achieve the scent of your liking.

Ingredients: 

• 1/4 cup Beeswax 

• 1 Tbs. Shea Butter 

• 2 Tbs. Cocoa Butter 

• 2 Tbs. Almond Oil 

• 1 Tbs. Jojoba Oil 

• 50 drops (apx. 1/2 tsp) essential oil of choice (optional) ...

Hey ya’ll!! This week has flown by but I didn’t forget about you…Who wants to do some pampering??? 

A warm, luxurious bath is sometimes just what you need at the end of a long or stressful day. You can take your relaxation to the next level by combining essential oils and bath salts. As the salt and oils interact with the warm water, you will get to enjoy the lovely aroma of essential oils as they soothe the body and awaken the senses—making your soak in the tub even more rejuvenating. 

Ingredients: 

• 1 cup Epsom salt
• 10 drops Lavender oil 

Instructions: 

Add Lavender oil to Epsom salt and stir together.
1. Draw a warm bath and add 1⁄4–1⁄2 cup of Epsom salt to the tub. 

2. Soak until you are relaxed and refreshed. 

I hope you find time to pamper yourself.  You deserve it!!

I want to give a huge shout out to Copaiba Essential Oil! 

Copaiba essential oil is derived from the resin of the copaiba tree, which can grow upwards of more than 100 feet and can be found in tropical South America. Copaiba is widely used in cosmetic products including soaps, creams, lotions, and perfumes. Copaiba has a soothing aroma and it can be applied to the skin to promote a clear, smooth complexion. Taken internally, Copaiba essential oil supports the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, and nervous systems. It also helps support a healthy inflammatory response. Copaiba essential oil can be added directly to the mouth to cleanse and soothe the gums and oral cavity. It’s also a powerful antioxidant that promotes immune health.

Hey guys!!!!  This week I want to focus on our immune system.  With the rise in COVID and a heavier than normal cold and flu season this is the topic we need right now!!

When we talk about the immune system, we are actually talking about a complicated network of organs and cells. Several organs and cells make up the immune system, including your lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, lymphocytes (white blood cells known as B- and T-cells), the thymus, and leukocytes (another type of white blood cell). Each piece works together to defend and protect the body.

The Immune Support Kit
To keep each element of your immune system on track, doTERRA offers an Immune Support Kit.  Along with the probiotic supplement PB Assist®+, this kit includes all of the most popular doTERRA essential oils known to help protect your body from environmental and other threats.
