On the 9th Day of Christmas, My Soul Self Gave to Me Essential Oils


In the Fall of 2014, my daughter asked me about alternatives to medicine for her 3 year old and new infant.


One of my friends had been talking about doTERRA® essential oils, so I contacted her and signed up to be a Wellness Advocate. It’s really easy and free to join doTERRA® and you can save up to 25% on all your purchases. There are also free oils and other items when you maintain a certain level of monthly purchases.

Please do not think I am leading up to a subtle (or not so subtle) sales pitch. I do not sell essential oils. If you are interested in buying doTERRA® essential oils, you may contact my friend and master teacher Christi Turley Diamond: www.mydoterra.com/ctd

OR you can call or text Christi at: 972-838-7383.

Now that I have that out of the way, would you like to learn more about using Essential Oils? For example, consider Lavender. It is one of the most popular essential oils and also one of the most reasonably priced oils. The aroma of Lavender is heavenly and it can support you in a number of ways. Here are just a few:

1. Linen Closet. Wake up your linens with lovely lavender. You can mix in a bottle with distilled water and spray.
2. Good Sleep. Make a rollerball and put Lavender on the bottom of the feet of babies, children and adults to calm them down and support good sleep.
3. Smell Fresh. For a homemade room freshener, put baking soda and 5-6 drops of lavender essential oil in a small Mason jar. Punch holes in the lid. Place in smelly areas. (laundry room, near garbage can, garage) Shake up from time to time.
4. Pet Smells. Toss a tablespoon or two of your baking soda and lavender mixture on your carpet and vacuum! Especially effective for pet smells!
5. Diffuse. Put a few drops in your cool mist diffuser and allow the mist to permeate a room.
6. Place on pulse points (wrist, neck, behind the ears) to support your physical or emotional healing.
7. Apply topically for burns, eczema, pain, inflammation and other physical concerns.
8. Add to recipes to enhance flavor, such as in icing for cookies or in recipes for shortbread.

doTERRA® has an introductory kit of 3 oils: Lavender, Peppermint and Lemon. Here’s a pdf of 101 Ways to use these three essential oils for your home and family:

That’s the fastest and most inexpensive way to get some essential oils into your home.

When I started with doTERRA®, my friend told me about the Family Physician Kit. It gives you 10 different essential oils or essential oil blends. Utilizing these 10 is a great way to learn about essential oils:

Frankincense
Lavender
Lemon
Melaleuca
Oregano
Peppermint
dōTERRA Breathe™
dōTERRA DigestZen®
dōTERRA On Guard®
dōTERRA Deep Blue®

You can learn more at: http://www.doterratools.com/documents/Enrollment_Kit_Flyers.pdf

doTERRA® just added 6 new essential oil blends to their product line. These blends come individually or in a kit of all 6 called the Emotional Aromatherapy Kit.

This new line of proprietary essential oil blends represents six categories of emotional well-being and gives you a way to use fragrant essential oils for emotional aromatherapy applications. Each delicate blend contains CPTG® essential oils that can be used aromatically or topically to help balance and brighten your changing moods. Just a few drops of these naturally complex, fragrant blends can elicit profound emotional responses to help you let go of burdens, find comfort and encouragement, or inspire you to dream with passion again.

dōTERRA Forgive™
dōTERRA Cheer™
dōTERRA Console™
dōTERRA Peace™
dōTERRA Passion™
dōTERRA Motivate™
