Blue Cypress isn’t just pretty - it’s a skin game changer! I paired this with Manuka (bye bye fine lines and blemishes!) and made 3 facial rollers for the next 3 gals to join Young Living and buy a kit of 12 amazing oils + a stunning diffuser and tons of samples and goodies. I mean who DOESN’T need oils? That’s right - everyone needs oils and clean products in their life. Check my stories for all the fun! ⁣

It’s Monday - which means re-entry into the week and catching up from being out of town! I’ve gotta admit, time management isn’t my best attribute BUT - I’ve committed to no mindless scrolling today in order to tackle my list. Grounding essential oil on my spine and Release on my chest - good vibes in, bad vibes OUT 😂 What is your best time management tip? Tell me in the comments! ⁣

A daily staple that goes with me pretty much everywhere - Young Living’s CBD muscle rub. Crazy town but - last night I found out I made it into the top 10% in the 2021 Open for my age division. Some days I need a lil’ extra plant help to feel my best as I continue to pursue this sport - and I can honestly say I feel a difference right away when I use this muscle rub. Today I extra extra need it haha (muscle ups UGGHHH). Definitely a product you need to add to your all natural arsenal! ⁣

What’s one thing you KNOW you need to ditch and switch out in your home? One of the big ones for me was scented candles. I never realized why I had massive headaches all the time until I ditched my Volcano Candle and started using a diffuser instead! Today’s blend is Lemon + Cinnamon Bark (inspired by my friend ) and it is GLORIOUS. Curious about getting a diffuser and some oils?

Little tip: always cut open the end of your Satin Mint Facial Scrub when you think you can’t possibly squeeze anything else out. Such a fun surprise to find like a weeks worth of product left in there! 🥰 ⁣

Ok you can’t not like this: fresh strawberries. Frozen bananas. Powder peanut butter. Almond milk. And Young Living Chocolate Protein powder DUH. Speaking of - that protein is back in stock today so just trust me when I say no protein has ever tasted better. Need help ordering some? Message me! ⁣

Spending time with the earth always brings me back to this understanding that the earth is good - and was created on purpose - with tools like plants - for us to use and enjoy and yes, to help us when we need. We spent 5 days in the Bahamas 🇧🇸 working last week, so my feed was a bit quiet! Back at it this week and am going to be posting a giveaway with some news about a gorgeous new diffuser that ahem — I want and you will too. Just in time for spring and all those wonderful plants that sometimes drive us crazy 😜. ⁣
⁣

Today: apply some emotional support oils on your wrists. Rub together. Inhale. Read your Bible and your devotional. Pray. Be quiet! QUIET IS SO GOOD FOR US. Remember you’re doing your best, and that you’re loved. Happy Thursday! ⁣

Any Thai food lovers here? ✌🏻✌🏻 Admittedly I am scared to really go out to a restaurant and eat it, (I am weird I know) BUT I am enjoying cooking up some silly good Thai dinners at home. Find this recipe on my Pinterest under “Dinners I can’t live Without” - check my highlights to find me on Pinterest! Red Curry paste, coconut milk, cilantro, rice noodles, I mean you can’t go wrong. It was BANGIN’ // LMK if you try it! ⁣

You know when you have your day planned out pretty well but then 8,592 things happen that take approximately 10 times longer than expected and it’s 3pm and you realize you’ve only had coffee and water all day and still have approximately 73 things that need your attention but *doh* it’s time to leave for the gym?? ⁣

Yea. ⁣

So check back tomorrow for a quick IGTV on emotional support oils and my experience with them, and why I think they’re so important. Happy Monday! ⁣
