Morning sweet thing!!
How are we?! Hopefully enjoying this gorg summer weather. It’s Saturday, our favorite day of the week.
Now who else LOVES to relax? Lol.
I know. Who doesn’t? Seriously though, the weekends are a time to unwind and decompress from the busy busy work week, duh. Well I’ve discovered the perfect tool to help us unwind.
ESSENTIAL OILS.
Okay okay, I might be late to the essential oils party but at least I showed up, right?
You’re all probably like hey Drea, I’ve been using essential oils for years. WELL, some of us haven’t and even some of us might have no clue what essential oils are.
I was the same. Until @nativerootsdesign opened my eyes to the world of essential oils.
Side story: Throwback to a couple weeks ago when I’m going on about how I’ve now heard of these little miracle workers called essential oils and my gf Sara is like, “oh yeah I use them all the time.”
Wait what?
Apparently this is a thing. A huge thing. EVERYONE USES ESSENTIAL OILS.
Okay so I get this massive headache {life RUINER} and as I’m reaching for my usual Advil, I stop myself. Sara told me she uses peppermint essential oils for all of her headaches.
So I tried it.
IT LITERALLY WORKED.
The cooling effect was addictive and I felt SO relaxed.
Plus, big plus, my headache slowly dissolved away.
Um miracle? Probably.
And here we are. Hooked on essential oils. I started dropping a few drops of lavender oils into my baths before bed. HEAVEN.
The peace & calming oil from Young Living Essential Oils is also so so good.
How I use them:
x bath
x mixed with a drop of olive oil and rubbed on sore muscles/joints
x peppermint oil directly on my temples {headache cure}
Lastly, there are literally SO MANY oils. I swear one for every ailment. Young Living also has seasonal sets which look awesome.
Okay so if you have any questions, comments or more essential oil tips + tricks COMMENT BELOW.
Plzzzzz.
Have a relaxing weekend!!
