are you living a balanced life?

Hi there, happy weekend to you!​
I hope you have some amazing things planned for this weekend! Today I want to talk about creating balance in life and why it's so important to have it.

Do you live a balanced life? 
We all need to have balance in life. When you are living a balanced life, you are living with peace and harmony every day. Many of us work long days and have demanding careers but when you live a balanced life, you find enough time to enjoy your hobbies and interests.

Balance comes in physical forms, emotional and spiritual forms. I find my balance when I can enjoy both-my day job and my creative hobbies.

Maintaining a well-balanced life isn’t just crucial for your health, happiness, and well-being but also essential for boosting productivity, managing stress, and unleashing your true potential.

We get so busy that we have no time to recharge and relax. You might be very talented and super creative, have all the opportunities in the world to chase and become what you want to become, but if you don't give yourself time to relax, you will loose the balance in life.

Not having balance in your life and not being able to make conscious decisions and choices will also greatly impact the quality of your life and the results you get.

Bugs in the garden? essential oilS will help

13/9/2018

Pests and bugs

​I love when my garden is green and lush. However the "leaf-eating" bugs also love my green and lush garden...How can you stop the bugs from attacking your plants?

Well, number one is to keep the garden area clean and free from debris and hiding places for pests.
Number two is to use chemical-free products in your garden which repel the bugs naturally. 

 Peppermint, Clove, Cedarwood, Geranium, Lemongrass, Rosemary, or Arborvitae essential oils repel bugs naturally.
I put 10 drops of any of these oils in a spray bottle with water (preferably when the weather is not very hot) and spray the areas of concern. Simple, safe and it works!

But when it comes to specifics, here’s how to get rid of three main pests:

Aphids. Use a neem oil based spray. This natural method is easy on plants, but gets rid of the aphids. Aphids can also be controlled to a certain extent by planting some “trap crops” like alyssum, dill, and yarrow around the garden that attracts the aphids instead.
Squash bugs. Squash bugs can survive cold winters and hide almost anywhere. Check for eggs on the underside of the leaves of the plants (they are usually orange in colour) and squish them before they hatch. 
Spider mites. They love dry areas and dust. Try to control by misting the plants–water bothers them.

​Gluten and Sugar-Free Protein Chocolate Muffins
​
What I like about this recipe is that I can use cocoa powder.
I am a huge chocolate lover, but I don't buy commercial chocolate any more, I make my own healthy treats.

I try to incorporate many healthy chocolate treats in my day-to-day diet; without adding artificial sweeteners or sugar.
I use honey and doTERRA Cinnamon, Grapefruit and other (sweet) essential oils.


Ingredients:

2 whole eggs
1 banana
1 scoop of whey protein powder
1/2 scoop of coconut/almond/rice flour
1 teaspoon of baking soda
2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
A bit of salt
2 drops of doTERRA Cinnamon Essential oil

Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly. Then put them in the oven at 175 degrees for around 15-20 minutes.

Once the mass becomes just a little sticky, take it out of the oven and let it cool in the fridge.

wild orange essential oil

5/8/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
Wild Orange is a doTERRA favourite for its fresh, invigorating aroma.
It also has a variety of uses from aiding the digestive system to energising the mind and body.
Part of its appeal is thanks to its chemical makeup—Wild Orange has a high amount of monoterpenes, which gives the oil purifying and stimulating qualities that can help enhance immunity. The orange rind is also full of antioxidants that help maintain overall health.


Wild Orange Oil Uses and Benefits

  1. Possibly one of the most distinct characteristics of Wild Orange essential oil is its powerful scent. The strong, sweet, citrus aroma of Wild Orange makes it useful for purifying the air, promoting and energizing an uplifting environment, or simply creating a pleasant smell in the home. To harness the purifying power and aroma of Wild Orange essential oil, place a few drops on your air filter at home. This will improve your home’s scent while simultaneously purifying the air. 

  2. The purifying properties of Wild Orange essential oil are not only useful for cleansing the air, but you can also use the oil to cleanse surfaces around the home. Similar to Lemon essential oil, Wild Orange essential oil can be used to wipe down frequently used surfaces around the home when you want to cleanse and purify them. Not only is Wild Orange helpful for purifying your kitchen table, countertop, or anything your family might use frequently throughout the day, but it can also be useful when cleaning the bathroom. Put three drops of Wild Orange in your bathroom sink or bathtub drains to help dispel any unpleasant odours or grime. Be sure to let the oil evaporate before you run the water. 

  3. Want to add the delicious taste of Wild Orange to your breakfast? We have the perfect recipes that will add a little zest to any morning when you might be feeling sluggish. If you are a fan of French toast, you will love this recipe for Wild Orange French Toast & Buttermilk Syrup. After experiencing the exciting twist on this classic recipe, you’ll never want to go back to eating plain French toast for breakfast. If you don’t have enough time to make French toast in the morning, you can make these Blueberry Wild Orange Muffins ahead of time and enjoy them all week! With other delicious flavours like cinnamon, blueberry, and coconut, these sweet little morsels will provide a peppy start to your day. 

  4. While many people diffuse Wild Orange essential oil to purify the air, this oil can also help uplift mood and increase feelings of energy. At the beginning of a stress-filled day, consider diffusing Wild Orange essential oil to provide a revitalizing aroma that will help get you through any task. If you are feeling a lack of energy in the late afternoon or early evening, you can diffuse Wild Orange to help lift your mood and increase awareness. 

  5. Another unique attribute of Wild Orange essential oil is its ability to polish wood furniture—a characteristic commonly found among citrus essential oils. You can easily make your own furniture polish at home by combining olive oil, vinegar, and Wild Orange essential oil into a spray bottle. This concoction will give life to old tables, chairs, or wood floors by getting rid of dust that often makes furniture look dull. 

  6. People love the invigorating, uplifting scent of Wild Orange essential oil. While the scent of Wild Orange can be enjoyed as you diffuse the oil, you can also apply Wild Orange oil topically to take advantage of its energizing properties. For an energizing boost, dispense one to two drops of Wild Orange essential oil in the palm of your hand along with equal parts Peppermint and Frankincense essential oils. Then, rub the combination on the back of your neck to maintain uplifting feelings. If you want to feel energized first thing in the morning, add a few drops of Wild Orange essential oil to your body wash for an invigorating shower. 
  7. Wild Orange oil has the ability to support the immune system when needed most.* During cold weather months, consider adding one or two drops of Wild Orange essential oil to a capsule to help support a healthy immune system.* If you often drink tea, add a few drops of Wild Orange to your favourite tea when you want to support your immune system.* You can also simply add a drop of Wild Orange to a glass of water every day to add flavour and promote overall health.*

  8. Looking for ways to use Wild Orange essential oil topically? The fresh, sweet scent of Wild Orange essential oil makes it a pleasant addition to any homemade beauty products. Try making this DIY Whipped Body Butter the next time you want to add a little extra moisture to your skin. With ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, Grapefruit essential oil, and Wild Orange essential oil, your skin will be smooth for days after you apply this citrus body butter. 

  9. While Wild Orange essential oil is a scrumptious addition to your breakfast, lunch, or dinner, it is also commonly used in beverages and smoothies. When making a smoothie, the possible combinations of fruit and essential oils are endless! Want a delicious smoothie that uses the sweet flavour of Wild Orange? Take a look at this Wild Tropical Smoothie that combines the lovely flavours of mangos, strawberries, and pineapples with the distinct taste of Wild Orange essential oil.

Essential Oils for Seasonal Allergies

Essential Oils for Seasonal Allergies
Seasonal allergies are caused by the body's inability to adapt to changes in the environment. While some of us may thrive with the onset of the spring season, it is also known for bringing on sneezing, watery eyes, swollen sinuses and discomfort for those who do not adapt easily. ​An allergic reaction begins in the immune system.

The immune system then overreacts to the allergen, which is really a harmless substance, and produces Immunoglobulin E antibodies. These antibodies travel to cells that release histamine and other chemicals, causing the allergic reaction.
​

Essential oils with antihistamine, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergen properties can help reduce uncomfortable symptoms so that you can enjoy the changing seasons.
​

People who suffer from allergies are often told to avoid triggers, but that is nearly impossible when the seasons are changing and our immune systems are impaired by the food industry and environmental toxins. Thankfully, some powerful essential oils act as a natural and safe way to treat the symptoms of allergies and boost our immune systems. These essential oils for allergies have the ability to chemically support the body and help it to overcome hypersensitivity.

Peppermint, lemon and lavender when diffused on a regular basis will help to reduce pollens and allergens.

​Why I use honey in my hair masks?

  • Honey seals moisture in your hair, keeping it conditioned. This reduces breakage, which is often a cause for slower hair growth.
  • It has rich antioxidant properties which prevent damage, keeping your scalp and hair healthy.
  • Honey strengthens the hair follicles, curbing hair fall.
  • Honey also comprises antibacterial and antiseptic qualities. This prevents scalp infections and soothes issues like dandruff, eczema, and psoriasis, allowing for unhindered hair growth.
  • Using honey as a hair care ingredient not only boosts hair growth but also stimulates hair re-growth from dormant follicles.

Lime essential oil-uses and benefits

2/7/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture

Famous for its distinct flavour and aroma, the lime fruit has seemingly endless applications for cooking, cleaning, personal care, and more. Much like the fruit, there are also many uses for Lime essential oil. Whether you want to add some zest to your smoothie or fill the room with an energising aroma, once you use Lime oil, it will soon become a major staple in your daily essential oil use. 

Why to use LIME essential oil? 

1. Known for its purifying properties, Lime essential oil is often used as an internal cleanser.* Lime oil may also support healthy immune function.* When you want to reap these internal benefits, consider adding a drop or two of Lime oil to your water glass or water bottle to enhance the flavor and provide antioxidant support.* If you want a flavorful drink that isn’t soda or full of sugar, you can also place a drop of Lemon and a drop of Lime oil in your water for a refreshing, sweet flavor. 
2. Looking for a flavorful side dish to take to your next party? You can always add a drop of Lime essential oil to homemade salsa to give it an extra punch of flavor.
3. Not only does Lime essential oil taste sweet, it also has a tart, citrus scent as well. This aroma is perfect for when you want to brighten a room or make your home feel clean or fresh. To utilize the smell of Lime oil around your house, try our Spring Fling Room Spray DIY. Simply combine Lemon, Grapefruit, and Lime oil with distilled water into a glass spray bottle and spray the concoction around your home or any area that could use a more cheerful scent.
4. If you are a fan of fruity or sweet drinks, Lime oil is your new best friend. Lime essential oil will add a tart, naturally sweet flavor to your favorite smoothies, or drinks. For cooling relief on a hot summer’s day, try our Non-Alcoholic Cranberry & Lime Spritzer, which uses four simple ingredients to create a one-of-a-kind taste. For another simple Lime beverage, mix up a batch of this Raspberry Limeade. This delicious summer favorite gives you all the flavor without all of the processed sugars and preservatives that are added to store-bought lemonades.

5. While the cleansing properties of Lime essential oil can be helpful for internal cleansing* or cleaning the house, you can also use Lime oil to help purify the skin and hair. Consider adding one or two drops of Lime essential oil to your face wash or shampoo to yield the benefits of added cleansing properties. To use Lime oil for hair, just combine with a few drops of Melaleuca and give yourself a scalp massage in the shower. 
6. Possibly one of the most common uses for the lime fruit is to add a tart, sweet flavor to dishes like chicken. This is also true for Lime essential oil—it can dress up any boring dinner when you are looking to add a little flavor. 

Let's summarise how to use Lime essential oil:
  • Take three to four drops in a veggie capsule or in your water to support a healthy immune system
  • Add a few drops to your water to use as an internal cleanser, and for enhanced flavor and antioxidant support 
  • Put five to six drops on a cotton pad to help remove grease spots
  • Add one drop to your facial cleanser or shampoo for added cleansing properties
  • Combine one to two drops with equal amounts Melaleuca for a soothing scalp massage
  • Add one drop to add a refreshing kick your homemade salsa
  • Diffuse while studying and then apply to wrists again while testing on the same subjects

Product Spotlight: Correct-X® Essential Ointment

Correct-X® Essential Ointment
Essential oils have long been used to soothe, calm, nourish, and hydrate the skin. Because they are natural and pure, essential oils are good for the skin and can help soothe skin irritations, provide moisture, nourish the skin, and more. Knowing the power of essential oils for skin, doTERRA created Correct-X essential ointment to help soothe distressed skin. Filled with essential oils that have significant cleansing, purifying, and soothing properties, the Correct-X formula was designed to provide the skin with soothing relief when irritations occur. 

doTERRA Correct-X is a multi-purpose, natural ointment that helps soothe skin and enhance the natural process of skin returning to a healthy state after being distressed.

Correct-X Benefits and Uses
  1. The essential oils in doTERRA Correct-X are known for their soothing properties, particularly for skin. When your skin needs soothing relief from occasional skin irritations, the Correct-X formula will provide calming for the skin, without removing any moisture. In addition to soothing the skin, Correct-X creates a moisture barrier for the skin, helping to hydrate while it soothes. If you are tired of using ointments or products that dry out your skin, give Correct-X a try, and experience the soothing, calming power of essential oils for skin. 

  2. For those with sensitive skin, it can be difficult to find a product that will get rid of skin irritations, without causing other problems. Many ointments are too strong or intense for sensitive skin, so they can cause additional irritation, rather than taking irritation away. Correct-X absorbs quickly into the skin, with a gentle, non-irritating formula that is perfect for anyone who has sensitive skin. 

  3. One of the greatest benefits of using essential oils for skin is that they can help give the complexion a clean, healthy-looking glow. After using Correct-X, your skin will be left with a clean, moisturized look and feeling. Because Correct-X uses safe, natural ingredients including essential oils, your pores won’t be clogged with extra toxins or fillers. As Correct-X works to reduce skin irritations and imperfections, you’ll enjoy a clean, hydrated complexion. 

  4. You never know when skin irritations are going to occur, and you might not always have a bottle of essential oils on hand. Correct-X was created as a convenient, travel-friendly product that will allow you to soothe your own skin irritations as well as those of your family, no matter where you are. Keep a tube of Correct-X in your car, purse, first aid kit, or favorite travel bag to ensure that you always have the skin-correcting benefits of essential oils on hand when you need them. Correct-X can be extremely helpful during outdoor recreation, whether you are on the playground, campground, or pitching mound. 

  5. The use of clean, natural ingredients in Correct-X leads to clean, smooth skin. Not only is the Correct-X formula full of skin-soothing essential oils, but it is also free of preservatives and petroleum that can be a hindrance to clear, clean skin. With only the best ingredients and pure, powerful essential oils at work, you know you can count on the doTERRA Correct-X formula to give you clean, healthy-looking skin.

Key Ingredients

Frankincense: Among its countless benefits, Frankincense oil has long been revered for its ability to reduce the appearance of skin imperfections.  

Melaleuca: Also known as Tea Tree oil, Melaleuca essential oil holds powerful cleansing properties that make it rejuvenating for the skin.  

Bisabolol: Recognized for its calming effects on the skin, Bisabolol is an important component of the doTERRA Correct-X formula. 

Helichrysum: Frequently used to reduce the signs of aging, Helichrysum oil has rejuvenating properties that help promote a healthy-looking complexion. 

Lavender: Known for its soothing properties, Lavender oil can be helpful for soothing occasional skin irritations. 

Jojoba: Because it is similar to the natural oils found in our skin, Jojoba can help provide hydration, which significantly improves the skin’s texture. 

Cedarwood: Cedarwood oil provides clarifying properties when applied topically, and can be a beneficial part of any skincare routine.

Pain and Inflammation Relief

Naturally safe, purely effective therapeutic-grade doTERRA essential oils came into my life after I’ve been diagnosed with two autoimmune conditions- inherited arthritis and celiac disease. I was told nothing would help me, and there is no cure from arthritis. I didn’t want to believe it and decided to search for answers.

I came across doTERRA, a science company that started a health care revolution 10 years ago, and I am extremely happy that I was introduced to the powerful medicinal grade essential oils.

Within a few days of using the oils I felt a huge difference. I decided to learn everything about these amazing naturally occurring volatile aromatic compounds and to share them with the world. doTERRA essential oils are a huge part of my daily life.

I am very passionate about helping others just like I helped myself and my family, and I want to share the following with you during the class:

+ samples to try and take home

+ medical research on doTERRA essential oils

+ doTERRA essential oils that have been registered as a medicine by the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration

+ oils with powerful anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties

+ oils that suppress inflammation within the cells via regulation of the metabolic profiling

+ oils that support the whole of your muscular skeletal system which includes your joins, muscles, ligaments, structural tissues, including bones

+ try and apply the oils on your joints or muscles

+ I will share with you different recipes and let you try the blend that I use every day to manage aches and discomfort.

doTERRA is leading an innovative movement in healthcare in which medical providers take an integrative approach to keep their patients healthy and thriving.

Many doctors and naturopaths are already using doTERRA Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® essential oils around the world, including Australia.

You will be able to order the oils after the class. I am a doTERRA’s Wellness Advocate and will help you to set up your doTERRA wholesale account (wholesale pricing gives you 25%-55% discount).

I am looking forward to meeting you and sharing my knowledge and experience.
