I love this picture.  You know why?  I’m finding there really is an essential oil for everything I have looked up so far.

My introduction to essential oils, was through the use of lavender.  I was talking with one of the ladies who uses essential oils, when I expressed my trouble with falling asleep.  She told me, I should try lavender oil. Lavender is calming and will help me relax. She even gave me a sample pack to try. So, that evening I did.

You can apply lavender in many different ways. You can splash a little on your pillow/bedding. You can just sniff it from the bottle or diffuse it in a diffuser. You can apply it to your temples, or rub in on the bottom of your feet. You can put a few drops in your hand, rub it in, cup your hands and inhale deeply.

The lavender for me, helps me to relax enough to fall into a deep sleep.  I recommend making sure you have at least 8 hours of sleep.

Here’s a great recipe to use on your linen’s before bedtime.

Lavender Bedtime Linen Spray

Ingredients:

20 drops Lavender essential oil

1 Tbsp isopropyl alcohol (you could even use vodka or everclear)

Distilled water

4-ounce spray bottle —

Directions:

Add lavender and alcohol to spray bottle, use water to top it off

Shake and use as needed on sheets at bedtime.

Did you realize lavender can also be used to help heal a blister? Make sure the blister has no fluid underneath. Take a couple drops of lavender and put it on the blister 3 times a day. The lavender will seal the blister allowing it to heal. Did you burn your finger on that hot pan or stove? Grab your lavender.  Again just place a few drops and let the cool healing begin.

Lavender is the perfect started oil, because it so versatile. Keep one in the kitchen cabinet and one in your medicine cabinet.

Call me today to get a bottle or two of lavender essential oil.

Hello!  My name is Kris. I’m a wellness advocate for doTerra Essential oils. I want to introduce you to the world of essential oils.

I know, I hear what you might be saying.  Essential Oils are too expensive! No one uses essential oils any more, we have modern medicine for that!  Essential oils are for the “hippies”, right?

Okay, let me just say, I had all the same comments when I was introduced to essential oils.

While my husband was in seminary, I met spouses on campus who used essential oils.  They would share all kinds of information on when they used them, how they used them and why they chose to use them. I even did the silent eye roll, thinking okay, “glad that works for you”.

Let me address the big issue first, the cost of the oils.  Yes, oils can be expensive.  Depending on where you purchase your oils.  Prices vary from company to company. Keep in mind, oils fit any other purchase, you get what you pay for.  Not all oils are created equal.  Some places have additives in their oils.  Additives keeps the cost down.  Pure oils have no additive and will cost more.  Is there a difference?  Yes! I truly believe there is. I have purchased both, hence why I now use doTerra pure essential oils.

Can oils have healing properties?  Yes.  Lavender essential oil for example, is great for minor skin irritations, soothing burns, relaxation, and other benefits.

Frankincense essential oil can be used for imperfection in your skin, relaxation and even support healthy cellular functions, and I am not talking about your mobile phone.

I want to note however; these statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Essential oils are another way for you to treat minor injuries or illness without human made chemicals. They can also be used to wash clothes, clean your house and add flavor to your favorite food and beverages.

Essential oils have been around for centuries. Frankincense is even mentioned in the Bible.  It was valued due to its healing properties.  It was also used as a perfume and incense.  So it’s not a “hippie” idea or new thing. Essential oils have been there, many have just forgotten about them and how to use them.

KD Essential Oils, carries only doTerra essential oils.  You can purchase them on line through my website, or contact me directly.  I can show you how you can purchase them at a discounted price, without having to become a wellness advocate.  I can also help you become a wellness advocate, the choice is yours.

I believe you will love essential oils, as much as I do.
