For 31 days in October 2015, I posted tidbits and tips about essential oils. Back then, we also had a fun contest!  This turned out to be a great way to teach my friends about essential oils -- some basic usage tips plus DIY ideas.

Click to read the tip.  

TIP #1:  Take some time to learn about essential oils.  

TIP #2:  Try cooking with essential oils. 


TIP # 3:  Diffuse your essential oils throughout the day to boost mood and help with normal stresses.

Tip #4:  Apply essential oils to the soles of your feet.  

TIP #5: When taking a Veggie Cap of essential oils, add some Digestive Blend (2 - 4 drops) and fill the rest of the way up with Olive Oil.  Take with plenty of water and if you're taking a "hot" oil, I recommend eating something to make sure it goes all the way down.  You’ll thank me later!!  :-)

TIP #6:  Work within the limits of your own knowledge. Learn from others and gain knowledge from your own experience.

Tip #11:  Calm and comfort your mind and body during monthly cycles with essential oils. 

Tip # 12:  Diffuse essential oils during your quiet time.
