🌿🌿🐾 Why TerraShield is always with us on every adventure 🐾🌿
Not long ago, I learned something really interesting from a vet, who has worked with dogs for many years.
She told me that Bearded Collies are often sensitive or allergic to an ingredient found in many shop-bought tick treatments.
That instantly made sense to me because my Bearded Collie Teddy has never tolerated those treatments well.
So I started looking for a more natural alternative.
That's when doTERRA TerraShield Outdoor Blend became part of our routine.
Before every walk, I simply mix a few drops with water in a spray bottle and lightly spray:
🐶 My dogs
👕 Our clothes
💚Our outdoor gear, spray on my and kids legs and arms.
😅 Since we've been using TerraShield, I personally haven't noticed any ticks on my dogs, and I love having a simple, plant-based routine before we head outdoors.
Whether we're off for a woodland walk, spending time in the garden, or going on one of our little Friday adventures, TerraShield always comes with us. 💚🌿

🍋 My favourite natural all-purpose cleaner!
Just three simple ingredients:
💧 Distilled water
🍶 A splash of vinegar
🍋 A few drops of Lemon essential oil

It's perfect for cleaning kitchen counters, tables, bathroom surfaces and so much more.

💚 I love choosing a more toxin-free way of living.
It's especially lovely for families with little children, where tiny hands seem to touch absolutely everything! It's also a great option for homes with pets.

My boys have long outgrown that stage, but I still love walking into a home that smells fresh, clean and almost like a spa. 🏡

I've also noticed that since I stopped using harsh chemical cleaners, I don't struggle with allergies as much, and my hands are much happier too.

Small changes can make a big difference. 🌿

🌞 My morning routine with essential oils 🍋

Today I want to share one of my favourite ways to use essential oils in everyday life.
Many people think essential oils are only for diffusing, but I also love using food-grade essential oils in my cooking, baking and drinks. They add wonderful natural flavour with just a drop.
This morning starts with refreshing lemon water, followed by one of my favourite breakfasts - homemade chia pudding layered with vegan yogurt, fresh strawberries and muesli. 🍓
A drop of Lemon essential oil gives it a fresh citrus flavour that I absolutely love. 🍋💛
Essential oils can become part of your daily routine in so many ways:
‼️ In your drinks
‼️ In breakfasts and desserts
‼️ In baking and cooking
‼️ In your skincare routine
‼️ In massage oils
‼️ Or simply diffused to create a beautiful atmosphere at home.

This is just one of the many ways I enjoy using them every day.

💛 Save this idea for later, and let me know—how do you like to use essential oils?

My favourite way to start a slow weekend morning. ☀️🌿
A cup of coffee with a drop of Wild Orange essential oil, a few peaceful moments in the garden, Balance on my feet to help me feel grounded, and Adaptiv to help me stay calm and ready for whatever the day brings. 💚
These simple rituals only take a few minutes, but they've made a big difference to my everyday routine. I feel calmer, more grounded, and better able to handle whatever the day brings.
‼️ Right now, Adaptiv is on a special Buy One, Get One offer - buy Adaptiv and get Balance FREE! It's the perfect time to try this beautiful combination for yourself.
Have you tried Adaptiv or Balance yet? I'd love to hear what you think! 🌿💚
Adaptiv

🌿 Peppermint is one of my top essential oils. 💚
Today I want to share one of my favourite and easiest ways to use it.
I always keep a Peppermint cooling spray with me. It has become one of my little helpers during hot flushes, warm summer days, or anytime I need a fresh and cooling moment. ❤️🫶
I also love using it first thing in the morning. The fresh, minty aroma helps me wake up, gives me a little boost, and makes me feel ready for the day ahead.
And when the weather is hot, this spray is just fabulous! ❄️ It feels so refreshing and cooling — such a lovely little thing to have nearby when you need a quick refresh.
Save this recipe for later, and hopefully it will become one of your little helpers too. 🤍
🌱 My simple Peppermint cooling spray recipe:
💧 30 ml spray bottle
🌿 6–8 drops of Peppermint essential oil
💦 Fill the rest with distilled water
Shake well before each use and spray onto the back of your neck, shoulders, or legs whenever you need that refreshing feeling.
If you have sensitive skin, start with fewer drops (for example, 4–5 drops in a 30 ml bottle) and see how your skin responds.
⚠️ Keep away from eyes‼️
For me, it’s one of those simple little daily rituals that I truly enjoy - fresh, uplifting, and so refreshing. 💚🌿
