If I was stranded on a desert island with only one essential oil, I would want BALANCE, my #1 favorite oil!!! It helps me to feel settled like no other oil in my collection.
Here are some details about the 5 essential oils which make up the Balance blend:
Spruce: Spruce is found to ground the body and balance our ability to give and receive. Its herbaceous scent helps expand the bronchials to deepen breathing and release tension or emotional blocks that may reside in the throat, jaw, and chest.
Ho Wood: Ho Wood is slowly taking the place of Rosewood. Rosewood is becoming endangered and so good companies are choosing to remove it from their blends. It is very similar in composition, just simply more sustainable. Ho Wood is a powerful sedative, offering grounding and calming effects on the nervous system and emotions.
Frankincense: This oil has been used for centuries in physical and emotional healing. It contains sesquiterpenes, which oxygenate the pineal and pituitary gland, passing the blood brain barrier to promote brain health. It strengthens skin and nails and promotes cellular regeneration to prevent the appearance of aging. It also balances mood and strengthens a person’s spiritual connection and sense of understanding.
Blue Tansy: This is a detoxifying oil, thought to help detoxify the liver and lymphatic system, which is closely related to the emotions of anger and depression. The mind-body connection allows this oil to aid in promoting self-control and well-being.
Blue Chamomile: A calming and sedative oil, Blue Chamomile has also shown properties of being pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory, which helps when dealing with stress, joint support, and muscle health.
Mommies need liquid calm when their children are not. Clary Calm is a doTERRA blend made for ALL women (even if they are not mommies, and it is great for men, too), because it supports a healthy, balanced hormonal system. And a balanced hormonal system means "good witch" days instead of "wicked witch" days. Clary Calm is even great to soothe and calm cramps. Your entire family will be thankful that you have discovered such natural and safe solution ;) .

Through mindfulness, good intentions, and positive thinking, we gain balance and harmony in life. Remaining in this state of mind sharpens focus and builds confidence. It is known that stimulating the olfactory portion of the brain with essential oils affects us deeply on many levels.
Once an association is established between a positive thought and an aromatherapy oil blend, affirmations become airborne.
To get the best results, repeat the following affirmation as you inhale the scent of this essential oil blend. With repetition, the positive affirmation will naturally become associated with the aroma.
"As I breathe in Inner Peace, I am reminded to live peacefully with balance, forgiveness, and loving kindness."
The Sweet $16 list below shows the wholesale prices for our least expensive oils. I love that you don't have to spend buckets of money for oils that you will want to use all the time!!! Of the oils in this list, which is your favorite and which are you most eager to try???
Did you know that there are two ways to purchase essential oils through doTERRA? Retail and wholesale. Just like Costco or Sam's Club, a wholesale membership with doTERRA only costs $35 a year. (OR you could buy an enrollment kit and the annual membership fee is waved.)
If you love essential oils and want to add to your collection all year long, buying them wholesale is definitely the way to save money, because those prices are 25% cheaper than retail!!! If you want to save even more money, then signing up for the Loyalty Rewards Program will allow you to save up to 55% off retail prices over the course of a year if you reorder often, plus the LRP option also gets you a lot of FREE OILS. Whoa! Who doesn't like to save money on their natural healthcare?!?
There is NO minimum purchase or "sharing" oils with other people required (unless you want to!) There are honestly NO strings attached! doTERRA strives to make these oils accessible and available for everyone. I will help you find the right single oils or enrollment kit that is just right for you!
Who could resist these yummy treats on a hot long weekend!?!
Citrus Coconut Pops
1 can full-fat coconut milk
1 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup agave (or sweetner of choice to taste)
1-2 drops orange or lime essential oil
Mix all ingredients together, and pour evenly into popsicle molds. If the molds don't have a built in stick, put in the freezer for about 30 minutes, then put popsicle sticks centered in the mold.
Across the country, school will soon be out for the summer. Are you ready to be a Mellow Mama when you have your kiddos at home all day each day? If you would like for me to make this rollerball blend for you, I will sell them for $15 each plus shipping (if you don't live in the Atlanta area.) Doing what I can to help you find peace in the summer months ahead!!!
Add a little Zing and Pep to your Memorial Day BBQ
If you are like me, and you live on watermelon all summer, you are going to love this fun, easy, healthy salad to make all season long. Add some Lime essential oil + mint for a fresh and healthy treat with some zing. And with the Lime EO, you're getting a mood booster, making it even better for you! Cube your watermelon or slice into triangles. Put several drops of Lime essential oil (only ingest doTERRA therapeutic grade oils!) in a small bowl and brush it over wedges or cubes. Finely chop fresh mint and sprinkle over salad. It's so easy, but has that extra little something making it perfect to take to a party. It's so simple and healthy to add some EO's to your kitchen and cook with them.
Think Outside the Box With Lemon Essential Oils...
If you mix Lemon Essential Oil with water and put it into a small spray bottle, spraying a light mist can eliminate those annoying cobwebs around the house!
A freshly cut lemon may be a great way to clean the BBQ, but did you that 5 drops of Lemon Essential Oil, mixed with water and lightly sprayed over a hot grill is a great way to clean it, and it is just as effective when used on a cold grill with a wire brush?!
Homemade Lemonade? NO PROBLEM! Let's boost up the tang with a few drops of Lemon Essential Oil. (PLEASE make sure that any essential oils that you consume are able to be taken internally. All doTERRA oils are Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade CTPG, and many including Lemon are great for internal usage. It clearly notes proper usage on every bottle.)
