Benefits of Diffusing Essential Oils

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

Soft, golden sunlight filters through the bedroom window, casting a warm morning glow throughout your home. You take in the serene scent of Lemon and Juniper Berry essential oils from a gentle mist that flows from the Volo® Marble Diffuser beside you. As you contemplate the day, you’re elevated by your environment, finding the peace and presence you need to begin your routine.

Anyone can appreciate the breathtaking scents of pure essential oils being diffused, but are you aware of the plethora of benefits that come from doing so? Here are four of them!

1. Bring the Outside In

Spending time in nature offers beautiful sights and smells. By diffusing pure essential oils, you can harness the power of nature to create a harmonious and calming environment in your space.

Whether it’s the invigorating aroma of sandalwood trees, the calming scent of lavender fields, or the refreshing notes of an orange grove, diffusing essential oils brings the wonders of the outdoors inside your home!

2. Enjoy Natural Scents

Unlike commercial air fresheners and scented candles, which can contain harmful chemicals and synthetic fragrances, essential oils serve as a safe and natural alternative. These pure extracts from plants, flowers, and trees are free of artificial additives and toxins, making them an easy choice for you and your family.

Rather than turning to unnatural scents, try diffusing Eucalyptus essential oil for an effective solution to unwanted smells. With essential oils, you enjoy not just pleasant fragrances but also their purity.

3. Bask in Portability and Flexibility

One of the most convenient features of diffusing essential oils is portability and therefore incredible flexibility. With a diffuser, you can easily move from room to room, diffusing scents for a variety of purposes. Here are some examples:

  • Start your morning routine with the renewing aroma of Purify in the kitchen.
  • Use Rosemary in your home office for a refreshing space.
  • Refresh your bathroom with a burst of Peppermint after a shower.

The possibilities are endless, and you can tailor the atmosphere in each room to match your needs and preferences at any given time.

4. Diffuse from Dusk to Dawn

Every good day begins with good sleep! Diffusing essential oils at night can create a more serene and relaxing environment conducive to sleep. It’s a simple yet effective way to support your bedtime routine.

The soothing, grounding aroma of doTERRA Serenity® Restful Blend will make your bedtime routine complete—rest assured.

Experience the benefits of diffusing today. This bundle is the perfect starter kit!

Alignment Blend

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

When we combine our thoughts, our bodies and our minds with the magical gifts of mother nature, we reveal wisdom.

The wisdom of our true Selves. The wisdom of the Earth. The wisdom held in the vibration of every living cell.

Last month we dove into discovering what our true values are that sustain us during hard times or simply how we navigate our everyday. Knowing our values is step one, living in alignment with those values is step two.

Our actions and the words we speak, and even the thoughts we have, all must strive to be in alignment with those values. When we step into daily living in alignment we become our best selves.

I try to look at my values daily. I try to pause before I respond. I think before I speak. And, I try to ask myself if what I am about to do going to help me create the life I want.

I also love my body everyday with intention. I try to eat mindfully. I also find time every day for moments of stillness.

This beautiful blend I perfectly crafted and named Alignment helps me to stay in living within my values. This blend includes Frankincense–Oil of Truth, Rosemary–Oil of Knowledge, Lavender–Oil of Communication, Roman Chamomile–Oil of Spiritual Purpose, Sandalwood–Oil of Sacred Devotion, and Tiger Eye which is a stone of protection. Tiger Eye may also bring good luck to the wearer. It has the power to focus the mind, promoting mental clarity, assisting us to resolve problems objectively and unclouded by emotions.

This blend is perfect for creating a sense of alignment with yourSelf and with others. Grab yours HERE!

Ylang Ylang Essential Oil

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

For the last few months I have been so drawn to a specific and potent aroma. I can’t stop reaching for it and I got really curious about why my brain and my body has been wanting this one so much.

This divine floral is all about the heart, being vulnerable, and finding sweet moments of childlike joy.

This year has been a little rough in my world. Some aspects of my life have flourished into greatness, while other areas have been heart breaking and have brought about quite a bit of grief and sorrow.

Truth is, my heart has been hurting. There I has been some loss and with that opportunities for acceptance that are seeking to emerge.

Ahhh. So that is why my spirit has been craving this smell. It’s sweet floral is an instant soothing to the soul. And the heart.

One of the most fragrant among essential oils. In fact, it is being used as a critical ingredient in the legendary perfume Chanel No. 5.

Ylang Ylang helps us connect to our heart and become balanced by releasing negative emotions and deep emotional sadness. It calms the heart and balances emotions during times of high stress, crisis, tension, or depression.

More importantly, it opens the heart to receive more love and acceptance. 

As a reflection of Ylang Ylang’s ability to restore a healthy flow of positivity in the heart, the essential oil helps encourage a healthy circulatory system. It improves blood flow, fights inflammation, and assist with other heart problems.

The Emotional Benefits:

The oil of a childlike heart
• Powerful for melting the walls around your heart
• Increases love, compassion, trust, empathy, and intimacy
• Softly releases any negative emotion or trauma you’re carrying within
• Use when you’re struggling to connect, put yourself out there, or be vulnerable and tender

Ylang Ylang, meaning “flower of flowers”, has its petals used in Indonesia to decorate the beds of newlyweds due to its aphrodisiac properties. Just so ya know.

Other health benefits::
• Promotes libido and hormonal balance
• Favorite for heart health, including healthy blood pressure, healthy heart rate, and more
• Calms the stress response in the body
• Used for a very restorative sleep

It is just so good. The investment is so worth it because it is so versatile for uses. Check out this gorgeous ebook that breaks down the many uses.

How Fast Do Essential Oils Work?

/ embracingspirit / 3 Comments

when you know better, you do better

Maya Angelou

Think essential oils just smell good? Back when I first started using them, I did too. I have learned through the years that they are actually working inside your brain and body to support every cell within our body. Crazy, eh?

Think about it. Long before pharmacies came to town, our ancestors used plants to help our bodies. Peppermint plants, homemade salves from herbs and tree parts, teas and much more. We strayed from these methods but I think more and more people are coming back to them.

People often get overwhelmed when learning about essential oils and I admit, it can be confusing at forest. But, using essential oils is really pretty simple.

Stop for a second.

Ask yourself what you are feeling. (Stressed, tired, overwhelmed, in pain, etc)…..then ask yourself what you WANT to feel. (Happy, calm, energized, peaceful, content, etc), then grab an oil that will offer that.

The simplest terms of beginning to learn about aromatherapy is to think of a tree. The higher up on the tree you go, the more uplifted and energized you’ll feel (citrus), the lower to the ground and close to the tree the more grounded and calm you’ll feel. (trees, roots, barks, flowers). Mints and herbs are low growing and provide unique properties. Mints will be both soothing and uplifting and herbs are typically used for ailments and brain support (basil and rosemary and excellent brain supports).

Pick one.

Put a few drops in your hands. Cup your nose and breathe. Apply the extra to the back of your neck and chest.

There ya go. Aromatherapy 101! I have a great downloaded ebook that explains it all. Once you get started, I will hook you up with education and mentoring plus a fabulous welcome gift.

Circadian Rhythm

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

Have you ever heard of the circadian rhythm?

The circadian rhythm, also known as your internal body clock, is responsible for making you feel alert and sleepy throughout the day. Ideally, you should feel most alert early in the morning and sleepy as it becomes darker and later in the day.

The circadian rhythm is the reason why teenagers find it difficult to go to bed and wake up early, because their melatonin is released later than adults and children, so they’re awake later. Jet lag and shift work also interfere with the natural body clock as well as long and irregular hours.

Get ready to hack your circadian rhythm for sleep:

•Go to bed and get up at the same time every day and diffuse trees and flowers
• When you wake up, take a morning walk and get some sunlight on your face
• Try a sunlight alarm clock that wakes you up with light
• Pop citrus and mint oils in your diffuser to start waking up your senses

Full Moon

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

The full moon is traditionally known as the time of letting go…of releasing what is no longer serving your highest good.

It’s a good time to ask yourself where do you feel constricted? Where do you feel bound? Where do you feel obligated? Where do you long for freedom?

With freedom comes joy. And joy is the ultimate goal, right?!

Sit quietly today… ask where you need to release responsibility that you’ve been carrying that really isn’t yours to carry. This could mean stepping out of drama between friends or co-workers. This could mean letting go of volunteer positions or projects you said yes to out of obligation.

Another question to ask is where is an area can I take better responsibility in order to receive the freedom I desire? This could mean de-cluttering your home or making freezer meals to free up mental and emotional space to play and be spontaneous with your family. Or this could mean really getting focused on the income producing activities in your business so that you can enjoy the travel you crave.

Remember… “Whatever is on your plate got there because you said yes to it.” Danielle LaPorte (Desire Map)

This blend is packed with clarity and releasing emotions.

Breathe Easy

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

Another day, another Classic. This is one I can’t live without. Supported airways. All the back to school stuff that goes around and seasonal changes can make breathing a little difficult. I am in and out of assisted living homes all day and keep a stash of Breathe essential oil in my bag just in case I encounter some stuffiness or smells that do not sit well with my nose. It’s amazing how well it works!

You can use a few different options:

? The Classic: Breathe– a beautiful blend of Laurel, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Melaleuca, Lemon, Cardamom, Ravintsara, and Ravensara–maintains clear airways, supports restful sleep, and supports you through seasonal threats

? The NEW Classic: Diffuse equal parts Frankincense + Lime + Douglas Fir in the diffuser at bedtime to beat the stuffy and full head feeling.

? PRO TIP? Add DigestZen, Breathe, Frankincense and Lime to a roller for ultra support–roll over your sinuses and your chest for clearer airways from the first inhale.

What’s your go-to sinus and respiratory support blend? Have you tried a sinus steam or neti pot before?

Fall Asleep Faster

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

Life happens. Stress happens. Menopause happens! Lol!

There’s nothing worse than struggling to get a good night’s sleep! ?

These are my GO TO favorites for Sleep supporting sleep!

Diffuse them. Slather them on. Take a Serenity and a Copaiba softgel and call me in the morning. Lol!

I have fallen in love with these oils all over again because of the incredible sleep support they deliver–like the heavens reached down and said “We got you!”

Nightly, I take 1 Copaiba Softgel and 1 Serenity Softgel 30 minutes before bed. I start my diffuser and put in Serenity or Balance and Cedarwood. I roll a drop of Vetiver on my feet.

Fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up refreshed!??

Ready to get started sleeping?

Pick and choose any or all of these. They work great together and have many additional uses like mood management and emotional support during the daytime AND Copaiba helps with everyday aches and pains.

The Smells of Fall

/ embracingspirit / Leave a comment

I used to be such a candle addict!

Especially from fall through Christmas! All those cozy smells filling my space. Agree?

As much as I love the warmth and coziness, had no idea that I was disrupting my own hormones and my family’s! (Yep! Hormones aren’t just a woman thing!)

I have a friend whose son was suffering from asthma. Lots it discomfort and costly doctor appointments. But wouldn’t ya know when she ditched the synthetic fragrances in candles, air fresheners, car fresheners, laundry soaps and personal care items… his asthma pretty much disappeared!

Maya Angelou says, “ When you know better, you do better.”

Diffusing essential oils can’t not only make your house smell amazing but it will bring great benefits to everyone in the home! Think immune and respiratory support!

My favorite fall smells? Clove, cassia, ginger, wild orange, or Siberian Fir.
