I started using essential oils in my home years ago, and they have changed our lives. I start my day with oils and end my day with oils, every single day. It is so easy yo get hooked!

If you are a lover of scented holiday candles, then you should read this, and try out some essential oils to keep your home smelling fresh and festive. My favorite this time of year is Christmas Spirit!

If you want to elevate your mood, your wellness, or improve your child’s concentration and focus at school, then try out some essential oils!

If you want yourself or your spouse to smell wonderful without the toxic chemicals that are contained in perfumes you find in the store, then try out some essential oils. Some of these oils even enhance romantic mood!

I could go on forever.

They have seriously touched every part of our lives, and I could not be happier about that! No more harsh chemical cleaners or self-care products made with toxic chemicals in our home. Those have no place with my small children. Instead I make my own stuff with essential oils, and you know what, they work BETTER! No kidding! Check out some of my recipes here.

Now, to make this easier for you to navigate (if you are new to oils, or just want to explore more options), I have put together an essential oil gift guide. Give the gift of elevated wellness and happiness this year. I plan to!
