August Young Living ER Order

I received my ER order from Young Living last month. I thought I would share the products that I purchased and how I plan on using them. I Have loooved getting more serious with my essential oil use over the past few months!

Rosemary - This is an awesome oil! When I received My ER order, I couldn't remember why I had purchased this oil. So glad I did! I've used it so many times over the last month. I have diffused it in combination with orange essential oil (Amazing combo!), made a salve that included rosemary, and used it to treat wounds. You can also cook with this oil.   

Cedarwood - This is hands down "one" of my favorite oils! It smells so good! It's also one of the least expensive oils, it's only about $11 bucks. That's cheaper than getting it a the health food store! I loving diffusing this oil in combination with lavender or bergamot in the evening before bed and using it for promoting healthy skin. 


EndoFlex - I was so excited to get this oil blend! I wanted to purchase it last month, but it was out of stock. I have been using this oil everyday as a support for my endocrine system. I use one drop per day by rubbing over my thyroid gland, and rubbing the residual oil left in my hand over my liver and adrenals. 


Lime - Lime is awesome! I have been diffusing in with peppermint and StressAway, as well as drinking it in my water. Lime, as well as other citrus oils has awesome detoxifying properties.

Fennel - This oil smells like licorice. Yum! I have only used this oil twice since receiving it, but for this times I did use it (for girly issues...) it worked incredibly well! This oil is also great for oral health. If you like oil pulling or making your own toothpaste, this would be a great oil to incorporate. 

Oils are AHHH-MAZING! Such simple beneficial ways to promote a healthy lifestyle for you and you family! If you are interested in checking out the incredible benefits of essential oils hit me up!

September and Smoothies

Can you believe it's September!? I can't. I love the carefree feel of summer, but the anticipation of autumn excites me! It makes me want to buy school supplies (even though I haven't been in school for a while now) and break out my boots and sweaters (even though today is a "chilly" 97 degrees). So in honor of the quickly approaching autumn season, I created this deeeeelicious Chai Spice Smoothie. Tastes like fall, but with a cool, creamy, and refreshing summer twist. It contains chia and hemp seeds which are rich in calcium, omega 3's, and fiber, cinnamon which helps to control and balance blood sugar, then all blended up and made with love. 

Chia Spice Smoothie

• 1 banana
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds

• 1/2 teaspoon cardamom
