Oils Tree Life

Enjoy your weekend… with Easter Peeps, Blessings, Joy & more. 🌷🐣🐰

🌳💚 Perspective

🌳 This is not a painting — it’s the view from beneath an ancient oak.

When you look up, the canopy of branches forms a living cathedral of light and life. Nature’s architecture at its most majestic.

For all you Pumpkin Spice fans. 🎃🍂

Tree time. 💚

That’s Amazing.🌳💚🍀

Love how purchases like this lotion + dT foresight and action = benefits to people involved in harvesting & distilling our beautiful oils. 🌹💜

Get your skin ready for summer with doTERRA spa Rose Hand Lotion. This light, alluring lotion promotes smooth and beautiful skin. Plus, the purchase price (net of tax) is contributed to the doTERRA Healing Hands Foundation to support projects like a mobile blood donation clinic in Bulgaria.

Because of a shortage of blood donors in Bulgaria, there’s a great need for blood at hospitals and medical facilities. By funding a mobile blood donation clinic, we can help supply blood to support the Rose Valley community, where doTERRA sources and distills Rose essential oil.

See the “About” section for donation and solicitation disclosures.

Thankful for dōTERRA essential oils ~ Most Tested, Most Trusted.

Your regular reminder that adulteration is a huge problem in the EO industry, with experts suggesting around 80% of the entire market is adulterated currently. A recent study evaluated 50 commercial samples of peppermint EO and found that 42% of them were adulterated. Adulterants, including synthetic chemicals, de-mentholized cornmint oil (very common in industry), and lower-cost oils, were identified.

Personal choice ~ mutual respect ~ informed choice … only with safe use & the right oils. dōTERRA of course.

I’ve spent 12,000+ hours researching essential oils, hold a Doctorate in Naturopathy, and am a Certified Clinical Master Aromatherapist. My deep dive into essential oil chemistry has led me to weigh the benefits vs. risks carefully, which is why I confidently teach safe internal use when appropriate.

That said, if you’re not comfortable ingesting essential oils, I respect that—just as I ask others not to force their fears onto those who make informed choices. Let’s embrace knowledge, science, and personal choice in natural health.

Nootka essential oil is distilled from the majestic Nootka cedar trees of Canada and is known as one of the strongest cedar varieties in the world. ❤️

As an environmental initiative, doTERRA uses the residual wood from the forestry industry that would have otherwise been wasted to distill Nootka essential oil. ♻️🫶

What do you love most about Nootka oil?

💭 Did you know that Black Spruce essential oil is sourced exclusively in Canada?

The strong and resilient black spruce tree dominates much of the landscape in the Canadian Tundra and is extracted in a responsible and sustainable way, minimizing waste. ♻️

❤️ What memories of home does Black Spruce remind you of?

All oils are not created equal and a high percentage of commercially available oils are adulterated. Adulterated essential oils, especially those with synthetics which are chemically (isomeric) different, will have different actions in the body and emerging research suggests have higher risk of side effects.

A recent review of 51 commercial lavender essential oils found that 49% were adulterated, and this doesn't even consider the quality of the oils. Of the samples, 6% were lavandin, 14% contained synthetic compounds, and 29% were a mixture of synthetics and lavandin.

If a price seems too good to be true for an essential oil, it probably is. As consumers, we must not be tempted to by an inexpensive oil if we want good results.
