Let's be honest.

2020 has been ridiculous in ways that are almost impossible to really put into words, right?

There are so many different aspects of this year that have felt overwhelming, and those reasons are different for each of us.

Everyone I speak with is feeling the ups and downs of their emotions. Some days feel easier, and some days feel insane.

Please know that you are not alone in this, and you do not need to struggle on your own.

You have tools in your hands and your home to help support you, and all you need to do is open those little brown bottles and take a deep inhalation.

Every morning, every evening, and any moment in between that feels challenging, open those bottles. Trust your intuition, or use the suggestions in this Stress Relief Protocol.

Whether you diffuse, apply topically, or take a drop or two internally, the powerful chemistry of these gifts of the earth will support you. Take a deep breath (or 20), stretch and move your body, drink a large glass of water, take even one minute to focus on the little joys in your day, and use your oils.

Then share them with everyone you know who needs what you've got. You were made for times like this - standing in love, standing in faith, and standing together.💕

At this time of year, I’m especially mindful of the effect that stress has on us. When holiday obligations start to influence our decision making, we tend to allow the expectations of others to discourage us from our normal self-care routines.⁣

Women have been particularly conditioned to please others, so we unconsciously feel that it’s selfish or rude to say no to outward expectations, even when they encroach on our own sense of peace. We may find ourselves harbouring feelings of anger or bitterness. Worse yet, over time we might find ourselves becoming physically ill!⁣

It’s worth remembering that we can’t pour from an empty cup. Our healthy habits and choices are extra important during the Holiday season, because our daily self-care commitments are crucial to keeping us grounded and emotionally balanced.⁣

This is the time for us to rethink "being selfish", and make mindful decisions that nourish our bodies, minds, and souls. As Shanti Zimmerman says, “The most self-absorbed human being is one who loathes themselves. The most aware is one who deeply cares for themselves."⁣

May we each be the reminder that we need that we are enough, we are deserving of peace, and we are loved this holiday season.💕⁣

'Tis the season for respiratory challenges!

No, this is not "novel" or unique to this year.

Yes, we all know that we see increased respiratory challenges every year when the weather gets cooler, the hours and tone of sunlight change, and kids return to school.

So let's keep our wits about us, allow cooler heads to prevail, and do what we do best: support our immune systems; eat nutritious, warming foods; and lean on our dōTERRA oils and supplements for support!

Here are some amazing diffuser ideas for you!

I love that more and more people are leaning into their inner knowing to help guide their lives. Phrases like "manifest", "visualize", and "ask the universe" have become so much more mainstream. It's clear that we want things to change for the better!

That being said, I wonder if the meanings of those words are getting lost...You read a book or attend a seminar and get swept up in them – you feel elevated, energized – YES! I’M GOING TO MANIFEST! Then you get home and realize you don’t actually know what that even really means.

Here's the thing – manifesting is NOT making a wish. You don’t manifest a better career path for yourself by dropping a dollar in a fountain or making a wish as you blow out your birthday candles. You don’t manifest a leather coat or a new car.

So, what IS manifesting?

Manifesting is when you create a goal for yourself and then make every fibre of your body and soul about that goal. Of course, there's the practical part of goal setting – writing a plan, creating a vision board, building a timeline to make it happen. But manifesting addresses the intangibles of who you are: your heart, your spirit, the very essence of your energy. It's the act of opening your heart wide and feeling your goal.

Be brave, be strong, be afraid – and do it anyway. THAT'S MANIFESTING. The universe will reward you for going all in, fear of rejection be damned.

What do you want to manifest?

When I was starting to build my dōTERRA business, I knew that I had to create some firm boundaries around my time and energy because I had my eyes on the horizon, on a future of abundance that I wanted to enjoy with my children.

I wanted a business that worked with my life, instead of having to schedule life around my business.👩‍💻 To do that, I had to cultivate a firm foundation of self-autonomy, to help my children recognize that I am a person beyond “Mama” – that I have my own imperfect (and sometimes messy) needs, feelings, and desires.

I’ve raised my children to have a high degree of emotional awareness, and we always find compassion and grace for each other when we make mistakes.

Helping my children to see how very powerful and capable they are has freed up my time and energy to be a better mama to them – because I’m not constantly trying to be everything to everyone. And having my children see me follow my passions and take care of myself allows me to model for them what being a fully-embodied, self-responsible, critical thinking adult woman looks like.

In order to continue being the wonderful caretakers that we are, we must put the oxygen mask on ourselves first – otherwise, we will wither and fade, and we won’t be able to nurture anyone in that state.

I want to challenge you to do one thing for yourself today. What will that one thing be? Let me know in the comments.💕

Intuition.✨ It’s something that many women are not well-versed in listening to. After all, there are so many external demands vying for our attention that our intuition too often goes unheard.⁣

If you’re tuned in to meditative or prayerful practice you might have a stronger connection to hearing your heart’s subtle yearnings, but you still may find it challenging to actually follow those tender threads of inspiration!⁣

That being said, you don’t necessarily need to light a candle or sit in a sacred space to tap into your inner voice. In fact, some of the most profound intuition will arrive without fanfare, and you’ll recognize it only because of how very right it feels – as if you’ve known forever!⁣

When something tugs on your heart repeatedly, it’s good practice to pay attention to how your body feels as you focus on that thought or feeling in your mind. Ask yourself, “Does this feel heavy, or does this feel light?” This can be a great way to determine if what you’re picking up on is actually an intuitive nudge, as opposed to an idea or expectation from outside factors.⁣

Our intuition may speak softly, but she’s incredibly persistent…and patient. She never gives up on us, even when we’ve been pretending not to hear her for years.💜⁣

Ask yourself – “What does my relationship with my own intuition look like?” Be honest with yourself. Have you been silencing her voice while listening more intently to those external factors, and if so, how can you start looking inward to build that relationship with yourself? Please share in the comments below, if you’re comfortable doing so!⁣

Digestive health was the weak link in my health from early on in my life. Diagnosed with a juvenile ulcer in grade 5, then a significant lactose intolerance in grade 6, it took me years and years of dietary changes and high quality nutrition and supplementation to heal those early gut challenges.

We now know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, just how many roles that gut health plays in our immune, inflammatory, and brain health. Some of the most profound, vital changes you can make are to clean up your diet; release the food groups that cause you to have sensitivity issues; embrace healthy, whole food choices; and add in essential oils and supplements that will help you on your journey to vibrant digestive health!

Here's a Digestive Health Protocol to help get you on your way. xo

This month, 2 Oracle cards called to me to share with you.💫

Earth School: When we face challenges in life, we often take a competitive approach to solving them, and feel defeated if we don’t “get it right”. Sometimes, learning new things can make us feel wrong-footed, awkward, and even embarrassed about what we thought was true before. This card offers a gentle and balanced reminder that we’re not meant to be instantly perfect at everything, and that the only wrong decisions we can make are those that cut us off from growth.

Being open and uncertain may feel scary at times, but true vulnerability is how we hone our intuitive chops and grow our psychic muscles. We may also interpret this as an invitation to embark upon some sort of formal learning, whether that’s beginning an exciting new chapter in your life, or getting the education you need to level up in business or surpass another income ceiling.

Releasing Allegiances: This card is calling you back into the substrata of your Earthly body, imploring you to tune out any distractions and tap into the frequency of your soul’s calling.

As your level of self-love grows, you will gain clarity regarding your relationships. Some will be evolved and conscious enough to grow alongside you, while others will fade out of harmony, and this card is your reminder to allow this natural evolution rather than halting the flow by holding on to what no longer aligns.

If you have been contemplating a change in lifestyle, a new endeavour, or starting a new project, this card offers encouragement that this is the right next step for you.

Specifically, we are being asked to stand firm in our feelings, even when logic or convention dictates otherwise. Stand sovereign in your own seasoned awareness, and skip the advice even from trusted advisors. Do not be swayed by external pressures, no matter how sound or practical they seem, because this is the time to trust in yourself and courageously break ground into new territory for your soul.

This month’s cards are from The Starseed Oracle by Rebecca Campbell, and the Sacred Rebels Guidebook by Alana Fairchild.💕

This month, the inner work is asking a lot of us, so I created a diffuser blend to help deepen our inner knowing and impart confidence in ourselves.💫

Juniper Berry is the essential oil that allows us to navigate the dream state, including nightmares, past trauma, and shadow work. It helps us to face our inner critic, and to shed the layers of repression and self-denial we may be comforting our egos with.

Patchouli is a fantastic oil for helping anchor our awareness into our physical body, and its Earthy scent grounds us into the present moment when we feel untethered and worried for the future. It’s also lovely for encouraging our sense of self-worth, and allows the release of patterns that no longer align with our true selves.

Lime is an uplifting and brightening citrus oil that reminds us that there’s always sweeter things to come. Lime’s crisp scent dispels feelings of self-doubt, negativity, and fear, and encourages us to listen to our heart’s authentic song.

Enjoy this Inner Knowing Blend:

In your diffuser, add water and 3 drops each of Juniper Berry, Patchouli, and Lime essential oils.

Let’s talk about healing.✨As our world might feel like it’s spinning in chaos and fear of the unknown due to current events, we’re left wondering what comes next. It may be difficult to even think about what healing, both personally and as a community, will look like.⁣

Many view healing as an act of physical regeneration only. While that certainly comes into play, healing is actually incredibly multi-faceted. It’s very much dependent on our mindset, our cultural and religious beliefs, old traumas and trauma patterns, our internal sense of peace and gratitude, and our willingness to let go of those strongly held beliefs that might be preventing the very healing we seek.⁣⁣

As we find ourselves reflecting, it’s important to conceptualize healing in its many forms – physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, financial, communal, and even global. Our positive, powerful energy will help us to create the path and the society we wish to live in.⁣

I challenge you to find one way to start your own healing process today. What will your first step be?💕Feel free to share in the comments – let's support and encourage each other!⁣
