Welcome!
You’re here because you’ve received a doTERRA package from me to experience the power of using essential oils for enhanced ENERGY SUPPORT.
We can’t talk about ENERGY without talking about our LIMBIC SYSTEM. And if you didn’t already know, essential oils are quickly absorbed by smell receptors directly connected to one of the most powerful areas of the brain: the limbic system. Not sure how powerful our limbic system is? The limbic system affects our moods, emotions, heart rate, blood pressure, & memories... so, it's kind of a big deal! Which is why essential oils are so effective to balance your moods + increase your energy.
Let’s boost those energy levels, sis:
Wild Orange:
A beautiful cleansing oil that supports toxin elimination from the body, stimulates the lymphatic system, eases anxiety, + uplifts the mood. Its powerful aroma is so energizing! Even just smelling it straight from the bottle leaves me feeling uplifted! It's also called "The Oil of Abundance" & is beautiful to use alongside your journaling + gratitude practices ... it inspires abundance, fosters creativity, supports a positive mood, restores physical energy & aids in transitions.
Peppermint:
One of the most daily used essential oils ever. It’s hugely beneficial in promoting regular body temperatures, supporting head tension, tummy upset along with a thousand other things! Love diffusing this for focus. doTERRA’s peppermint is the purest you’ll ever experience & is the highest in the constituent, menthol ... which is short form for: INSTANT energy boosting, INSTANT tension kicking, INSTANT digestive support, INSTANT tingles 😘

Some essential oils can pep you up, while others can calm you down. You will feel a shift in your mood within seconds!
You can either take the cap off and breathe in, or place a drop in between your hands, rub them together and inhale deeply, or diffuse them.
Diffusing essential oils is one of my favourite ways to balance my mood while also reducing the need to use toxic air fresheners in the house.
But let’s talk about some more ways you’ll want to use them …
Peppermint:
Wild Orange:
Add 1 drop of Peppermint + Wild Orange in your palm, rub your hands together, and take a big inhale. Instant wake-me-up.
Dilute with Fractionated Coconut Oil and trace over your temples, across your hairline, and the back of your neck for that pick-me-up you’ve been needing.
When you feel a headache coming on, add 1 drop in the palm of your hands, cup over your nose, and inhale.
