Roller Recipes
Did you know you can apply oils topically? We often choose the method of diffusing as its so effective, but we can also apply essential oils to our skin for incredible benefits too. This is actually one of my favourite ways to use them. From applying them to help elevate mood, relaxation and sleep, kiddie tantrums, wellness, respiratory support and more!

Say Goodbye to Harsh Chemicals:
Cleaning is something we all do daily. Whether it’s wiping the table, cleaning the dishes or mopping the floor. What if I told you that the average household will have approximately 250-300 chemicals in the form of cleaning products, garden products, handyman products or detergents?!

Detox and Epsom Salt Baths
I thoroughly enjoy taking baths and find them incredibly soothing for both my body and mind.I’m sure many of us do! From a young age I remember enjoying the relaxation and comfort they provide, whether it was after a long day at school or to warm up after spending time outside in the English chilly weather.

Veggie Wash
One of the most germ-prone things in your kitchen may actually be your produce! Since produce passes through so many hands, boxes, and delivery trucks, it has a high potential for germs. Washing your produce before eating, cutting or cooking it is so important!


DIY Body Wash
If you peek on the back of the body washes sitting in your shower right now, I am guessing that you can’t pronounce half the words listed on the ingredient list. That is a good sign to get rid of it and make something to replace it. (Or purchase something clean, my favourite is Morning Start by Young Living. It smells so fresh and has no nasties!) Among these ingredients, there are a few you will definitely want to avoid. These include fragrance, artificial dyes, parabens, sulfates, and triclosan.

Ningxia Red
I consider this my daily vitamins (I take a probiotic too). It is my superfood vitamin drink… 60 ml of Ningxia Red. Either on its own or mixed with sparkling water or just water. Ningxia has helped with my energy levels, bounce back quickly when feeling not my best! 60 ml of Ningxia a day was a big part of Bens journey in reducing his coffee intake too!

Plant Care with Essential Oils
I love plants! Indoor plants, outdoor plants, foliage, you name it! Houseplants in particular are a fave of mine to breathe life into a home along with purifying the air! Plants can absorb toxins through their leaves and serve as a natural way to filter the air in your home, cleaner air inside the home is a healthier home I say. We don’t burn candles, use air fresheners, aerosols or have anything labeled with the word fragrance in our home. We only use plant- derived cleaning products and essential oils, which we use to feed our plants too!


DIY Essential Oil Sprays for the home
Super easy DIY sprays to make yourself, no chemicals, artificial fragrances or hidden toxic ingredients. It’s just pure plant juice with your Essential oils, which is cost effective and fun! But not only do you know exactly what’s in it, you can make any spray you want with your oils and with any scents that you love the smell of! Room sprays, air fresheners, linen sprays and more.

Why we ditched candles for Essential Oils!
I have always loved the cosy feeling and ambience created by candles. Selecting scents to transform the mood and atmosphere in my home. There is very strong connection to the scents you inhale and the limbic system in your brain (the emotional command center) which can trigger memories, emotions, behavior, hormonal function, motivation, sexual function and libido. Adding scents to your home is important on many levels but the method of how we can safely do is up to us.

Natural Skincare Routine
Over the years I have used many skin care products, from cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising, makeup and more to find a skin care routine that was simple and worked for me.
