Gosh it feels good to be blogging again. Im not gonna lie, the last few weeks, maybe even moths have been SO CRAZY. I feel like finals ran right into Christmas and Christmas ran right into New Years and everything was jumbled up and all while that was happening, my family and I moved…..So yeah…. its been a long and stressful couple of weeks. But I’m back! I have so many fun and cool ideas for you guys that I’m really excited to share but I thought I’d start off with a review!

A few weeks ago I was sent some essential oils by a Young Living representative. What the heck is that liv??? Young Living is a company that provides natural essential oils! Whats so special about essential oils by Young Living is that they all come right from the plant which means if the plant isn’t in harvest or they don’t have access to that plant for other reasons then they can’t produce the oil. Point is, they’re 100% natural, cruelty free and they’re pretty dang awesome. Savannah (the YL rep) and I chatted for a bit about some of the things I might struggle with. I explained to her that Ive used essential oils for a while now with all sleeping problems but that I was interested in trying some new ones. She recommended Lavender (what I’ve been using) to help with stress and sleep, as well at tea tree oil, which helps with skin healing and ylang ylang  which smells yummy and can even improve your mood.

All of them were amazing and the sample sizes were so cute and perfect. I used the lavender for a bath and it really did help me chill out lol. All of the oils are also edible because they contain no toxins that some oils have. You can literally put their lemon oil like on chicken… if you don’t want do that or use them on your skin, you can use what i use a lot; a defuser. (Young life sells defusers as well)Now, I won’t lie, tea tree oil has a VERY strong smell that I wasn’t crazy about but BOY does it work WONDERS. Ive used it on my piercing to help them heal in the past, but this time I used it on a few scabs that I have on my back from some breaking out I had and not only did it heal the skin but it also prevented scaring. The ylang ylang was really really nice. It only took a small drop to make my whole room smell heavenly.

Ive always been interested in organic, wholesome products, from foods to essential oils! Candles, aerosol sprays and air fresheners all create toxins in the air that can lead to things like cancer and other serious problems. With essential oils an a diffusers, you’re simply creating water vapor that smells any way you want it! Im hooked! I hope some of you find this interesting and give Young Living a try!!

Best,
