Using Essential Oils with Children
There are so many ways that children can benefit from essential oil use- relaxation, focus, emotional well-being, and bath time fun, to name a few. Essential oils are more than just fun and pleasing aromas, however; they are incredibly strong plant extractions, and the key to using them effectively with our little ones is learning how to use them safely.

What exactly is dilution and how do you know when you’re doing it correctly? When I began my journey with essential oils, I loved them for their aromas and I wanted to interact with them as much as possible. However, I didn’t know much about them so I often overused them in ways that could have been harmful.

Three Essential Oil Self Care Practices
Self care is such an important practice that is often put aside when we need it most- when our lives show up as hectic, overwhelming or just too fast paced. Essential oils can be such useful allies during these times; they remind us to slow down, take a deep breath, and remember that our wellness is important too.
