Good Morning!  So after my complaints about Seattle weather yesterday, I woke up to this.....

Ok, so I didn't actually take this photo, but it is the perfect illustration for what today looks like here in the Northwest.  Yay!  Definitely having some outside time today.

As promised, today I am continuing my essential oil posts by sharing  4 of my favorite and simple ways you can use essential oils on the body to calm and soothe.  Let's get straight into it.....

​1. Calm Nervous System/Adrenal Exhaustion Bath Blend 
Mix together the following in your bath and soak for 15-30 mins:
10 drops vetiver
10 drops roman chamomile
1 cup Epsom salts
OR you can also blend 20 drops lavender with 1 cup Epsom salts for similar effect

I hope you’ll try a few of my suggestions and see how you like them!  Please let me know if you do, or if you have any of your own favorite recipes using essential oils!  I’d love to hear them. 



P.S.  Next week I am going to be on the Aspire Natural Health podcast talking about how to calm an anxious mind.  I will be sharing some of my story, along with some tips to help you if you suffer from anxiety or simply need to reduce your stress levels.  The podcast will air live on Thursday June 29th at 1pm PST.  Here is the link: aspirenaturalhealth.com/podcast/
Hope you can tune in and listen! 

P.P.S. For those who live in the Seattle area, I will be offering an 8 week course on How To Calm An Anxious Mind starting in early September!  I will be sharing my unique Life Model that I created to help me overcome anxiety and live each day feeling calm, centered, and balanced.  I will teach you how to apply it in your own life to help you reduce anxiety and feel more calm in body and mind.  Stay tuned for more details! 

​Peace.
