this is one of my most FAVORITE DIYs using my oils! it was one of the first I ever made, and I loveeee it (when I remember to be consistent with it!) my hair feels so soft and shiny, and I love how it grows! and smells lovely!!! Step 1: grab your Young Living cedarwood, rosemary, and lavender essential oils Step 2: use equal parts of each essential oil in your final recipe Step 3: roll, spray, or massage onto scalp where desired! PRO TIP: make up a 5mL bottle of the blend and use it in multiple applications or do your refiling quickly and easily! in an empty 5mL bottle, add 30 drops each of the 3 oils (90 total drops) RECIPE STARTERS: here's a great place to start! experiment and see what works best for you, and adjust the recipes for your preferences! and remember: consistency is key! ROLLER: in a roller of choice, add 20 drops each cedarwood, rosemary, and lavender. add carrier oil of choice if you would like (I use it neat!). roll onto hairline or where desired and massage with fingertips. DROPPER: in a dropper bottle, add 20 drops each cedarwood, rosemary, and lavender. drop 1 to 2 drops onto scalp where desired and massage with fingertips. SPRAY: in a 4 oz glass spray bottle, add 20 drops each cedarwood, rosemary, and lavender. fill the bottle 3/4 full with water then add a splash of witch hazel (if desired for mixing). shake gently before misting wet hair. helps as a detangler, too - some like to add a little bit of carrier oil for taming flyaways and extra detangling, too! SHAMPOO: add one drop of the mixture of cedarwood + rosemary + lavender per ounce of shampoo as a place to start! keep out of eyes. *** NOTE: as always, start low, go slow, and listen to your body! dilute as desired, especially for kiddos. keep oils out of eyes and ears. and have fun!!! *** PIN IT: https://pin.it/6vl0knJ SUPPLIES ON AMAZON: http://a.co/eBmlAFg want in on oils and the wellness lifestyle?!?! here's more info on how I got started!!! essentiallyinspired.org/codileighessentially excited to welcome you into the tribe, friend!!!!

Less Mess - Save Money - Change Up Scent - Ditch Those Toxins Cut to the Chase: 1. Grab your bottle of Thieves Laundry Soap + three Pump Bottles 2. Split the Thieves between the three bottles 3. Fill the one you're ready to use with water and tilt to mix 4. To up the cleaning, add a capful of Thieves Household Cleaner 5. Use a few pumps in each load, add a drop of essential oil for extra customized scent! What is it about detergent bottle caps that I always make such a mess with?!?! Also....... some in our household - *cough *cough - tend to use wayyyyy more than necessary! I mean, I guess it IS hard to only use 1/4 of that tiny cap! So excited to share my fave hack that will Change. The. Game. For. You. Step 1: Grab your Thieves Laundry Soap and your three Pump Bottles! I love this stuff because: - it's plant based! - scented with essential oils and NOT "fragrance"! - no dyes, SLS, petrochemicals, formaldehyde, phosphates, or optical brighteners - works SO well for fancy clothes to workout clothes and everything in between! - super affordable and actually saves us money over the course of the year! You will LOVE it !!! (links to bottles and laundry soap below!) Step 2: Split the Thieves Laundry Soap between the three pump bottles! Easy peasy!!! Simple as that! If you have a steady hand, just aim and pour! Or if you're like me..... probably should grab a funnel ..... or have a load of laundry ready to go for the excess wiped off the bottle.... and counter.... and floor .... when you dribble! It's not an exact science - just do your closest! But if you wanted to get all sciency about it, you can always get out the ol' food scale and even them out!! Happy pouring!!!! Step 3: Fill the rest of the way with water!! I choose to only add the water to the bottle I'm going to use first, but you can totes fill them all up!! Once the water is in, tilt to mix and you're good to go!!!! Step 4: Some of my oily friends also like to add a capful of Thieves Household Cleaner for an extra *BAM* for super dirty loads!! I hear it works really well!! Step 5: Get to washing!!!!! I use 2-3 pumps per large load! These bottles last SO long, with no mess, and helps not to have a heavy hand! Pro Tips: -Peel the label off of your Thieves Laundry Soap bottle and put it on your pump bottle! Super cute! -Add a drop of your favorite oil in with your detergent! I love Gentle Baby (smells like fresh linen!) or Peppermint! One drop is all you need! Links & Products First of all, grab pump bottles from Amazon!!

I don’t want to rub it in, but here in Wisconsin we’re a few weeks ahead of the Northerners for spring! Growing up in Maine and living there for 30 years, it's usually a wayyyyyssss into "normal spring" for everyone else before we need to think about this stuff!!! Kind of snuck up on me this year! For me, Spring brings a little push-pull of feelings: // My fave season is “changing seasons”, so I love this time of year!!! (yes, I get 4 fave seasons a year) // My body revolts when everything starts to pop and you can see the grass again! This combo has been EVERYTHING for me. I don’t like to take unnecessary meds, so I used to suffer through it squinty eyed and with a box of tissues. Now, I smell amazing AND can support my body through it naturally by giving it what it needs!!! the three ways to use it The good stuff is equal parts lavender, lemon, and peppermint! Here's how I love it!! // Roll it on my wrists, neck, behind ears, over sinuses, nose .... early and often! // Diffuse it all day errrry day... like barely anything else goes in the diffusers the next month or so .... even while we sleep! // I drink one Vitality drop in my water! It will linger in your glass or bottle for 2-3 refills! the mother of all tips Take an empty YL bottle. Fill it up with 1/3 Lemon, 1/3 Lavender, 1/3 Peppermint (or Vitality Oils) You’re ready to go!!! Each single drop now contains 1/3 each LLP!!!! Brilliant, I know!! Fill up your rollers and drop in your diffuser without doing pesky things like tracking down all the bottles and counting! Lawd knows one drop of each is too much in one glass of water, and try breaking off 1/3 of a drop of each manually ..... #cantdoit the science Expert educator Jen O’Sullvian broke it down like this after talking with Dr Woolley about it: Lemon Vitality help supports your lymphatic system Peppermint Vitality is a pusher and very volatile and will have a cooling sensation but will push those oils in Lavender Vitality is really helpful with the seasonal stuff and promoting a sense of openness within your breathing sensation. All together, they’re this perfect little trio!! happy happy spring time! Well, time to get my Seasons Blend on!!!! Be well, my friends!!! Let's be friends!!! instagram.com/codileighessentially tinyurl.com/PinterestInspired Curious about the wellness world of Essential Oils? I gotchu!! essentiallyinspired.org/start THE USUAL DISCLAIMER: Always start low and go slow when using oils for the first time! And quality counts!
