Stress. We all experience it but none of us need to put up with it.🙌🏼 There are so many ways we can kick stress to the curb. Oils. Sleep. Limiting screen time. Not giving energy to people who trigger stress in our lives. The key is finding some easy ways to deal with the everyday stresses.

YOU KNOW THAT good feeling you get when you step out into the sunshine? 🌞😎 Especially after a long day? Well, scientists studied why that is and apparently there's a skin/sunshine connection in the production of serotonin. Meaning, we produce more serotonin when our skin is exposed to sunshine. More serotonin = happier feelings. 😁 Happier feelings = less stress. This is probably why a vacation is the first place our minds go to when we're stressed. ...Somewhere sunny, RIGHT NOW.

Another thing I found interesting is that vitamin C (I think vitamin sea, too! 🌊) helps reduce blood pressure and cortisol, which are both connected to stress. So, a little sunshine and whole food vitamin C (NOT ascorbic acid) is a POWERFUL combo!!

I feel like we know a lot of the other practical ways to cut down on stress, it's just a matter of doing them. So, let's write them down. MAKE A LIST! Things [we] can do daily &/or in the moment. Like getting more sleep. Setting down the cup of coffee when we start feeling edgy or shaky (never drink it on an empty tummy). BIG things that are incredibly helpful for me include purging/decluttering the home + office and making sure to schedule down time.

Also? USE. OUR. OILS. They are absolutely useless just sitting on your counting, on the wall, or in a drawer/cabinet -- make a list of the one(s) that help you most with stress. Keep a bottle of Stress Away within arms reach. Have Northern Lights Black Spruce + Lavender next to your diffuser. Keep a bottle of Joy out! Let's do the things we know to do. Small shifts can bring big results. 🎉

Take a deep breath inhaling from your nose.. hold it two beats and exhale through your mouth. Do that two more times and I hope you're able to kick off your day with the sunshine on your face! Let's encourage one another to say "C-yah" to stress!!

It's the jack of all trades, the Swiss army knife of essential oils. But it's really helpful this time of year. 🙌🏼 Here are just a few ways you can let this genie out of the bottle in spring and headed into summer.

RECIPES:
3 drops Lavender
3 drops Lemon
3 drops Peppermint
Diffuse for a fresh aroma and easy going atmosphere to breathe in and enjoy the season.

Sun Kissed Skin
15 drops Lavender
Aloe vera juice
Fractionated coconut oil
Instructions: in a glass roller bottle, add the Lavender oil and fill the rest with 1/4 aloe vera juice and fill the rest of the way with fractionated coconut oil. Mix well before each use and roll on your skin after a day out in the sun for soothing relief and healthier looking skin.

Honey Lavender Lemonade
6 lemons, juiced
1 lime, juiced
½ cup honey
2 drops Lavender Vitality essential oil
Ice water, about 10 cups
Lavender sprigs, optional
Instructions: Combine lemon juice, lime juice, honey, and Lavender Vitality in a large glass pitcher. Add water to taste.Stir until well mixed. Garnish with sprigs of lavender.

That Honey Lavender Lemonade is a recipe straight from Young Living. Want a little more Lavender? Add a drop or two more. Want to add some Lemon Vitality? Start with a drop! Either way, it's a delicious, refreshing drink that's also pretty good for you!

What are some other ways you let the Lavender genie out of the bottle? Give us some of your favorite Lavender uses for springtime heading into summer!

There are a number of similar oils + blends from Young Living, and thankfully we don't have to only use just one over the other. BUT, we probably do have our favorites between them! So, let's play "This or That" and you share which one of the two oils is your favorite (and why, if you want). Ready? Let's do this!

DiGize or TummyGize?
R.C. or Raven?
Frankincense or Sacred Frankincense?
Peace & Calming or Peace & Calming II?
Brain Power or Clarity?
Grounding or Sacred Mountain?

That should be enough for this round. 🤗 You can add a few in the comments if you want, but I'm excited to see which ones everyone picks!

Have you tried Young Living's Golden Turmeric?

Turmeric has been one of those "good for your health" topics for as long as I can remember. The reason I love it is because it's:
a) high in curcuminoids that help with inflammation,
b) it has a prebiotic which helps with that gut-brain connection (gut health is connected to SO many things including but not limited it uncontrollable worries),
c) curcumin is a powerful antioxidant.

So by simply adding Golden Turmeric to our routine we get extra immune support, digestive support, the same amount of turmeric from 300mg as I would from 1,926mg of regular turmeric extract, emotional support (yes. please.), AND it supports my muscles after a long day, helps my joints feel better after sitting for hours (IE: in car OR in front of computer) PLUS, it's an amazing anti-inflammatory.

What to see the science? Here are just a few of the studies on why the curcumin in Golden Turmeric is so good for us, especially for inflammation...

Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of curcumin: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17569207/

Curcumin a more potent anti-inflammatory than OTC anti-inflammatory meds, without the side effects: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15489888/

The connection between stress/mental health issues and chronic inflammation: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6491771/

HOW TO USE IT:
Mix ½ teaspoon in 6–8 ounces of water, juice, or milk of choice once daily..

Drink at nighttime as part of your wind-down routine.. (warming up milk of choice with cacao, maca, a touch of honey and this blend is absolute perfection)

Combine with water, ice, 1 drop of Cardamom Vitality essential oil, and 2 ounces of NingXia Red for a delicious wellness drink..

Add to a green smoothie (it’s delicious with the Vanilla Spice Protein Powder)..

Steep Spiced Turmeric Vitality Tea and add ½ teaspoon of Golden Turmeric for a cozy nighttime drink (so good!!)

AND A FAN FAVORITE:
Start your day with a Golden Milk Latte
+ ½ Tsp Golden Turmeric powder
+ 8 oz milk of choice
+ 1 drop Cardamom Vitality
+ 1 drop Nutmeg Vitality
+ Swish of Cinnamon Bark Vitality (insert a toothpick into the bottle, then swirl it around in the milk)
+ Dash of ground cinnamon for garnish
* Heat the milk on medium low, then stir in Golden Turmeric powder and add essential oils. Stir gently, then top with a sprinkle of cinnamon!
+ Optional: froth some of the milk and essential oils together for a delicious foam!

The secret here is to just use it! Whatever way suits you and your family best.

Chronic, low level inflammation is such a big part of so many of the health problems many of us might be experiencing. Golden Turmeric really does help. 😍👏🏼

For those who have used it, what's your favorite way to drink it? I love hearing everyone's preferences!!

Make a cologne roller!
In a 10mL roller bottle add:
10 drops Idaho Blue Spruce
8 drops Bergamot
8 drops Cedarwood or Northern Lights Black Spruce
3 drops Ylang Ylang
Fill with fave carrier of choice

15 drops Idaho Blue Spruce
10 drops Bergamot
Optional: 10 drops Shutran

You can also diffuse it for all the good vibes and to have him in a confident, good mood. Try one of these!

*PRO TIP: Northern Lights Black Spruce is always a great oil, and adding JUST A TOUCH of Lavender is an absolute game changer.

Year 'Round Lumberjack:
4 drops Idaho Blue Spruce (or Northern Lights Black Spruce!)
3 drops Peppermint
2 drops Cedarwood

Date Night:
4 drops Idaho Blue Spruce
4 drops Ylang Ylang
