Everyone's Favorite Essential Oils -
Yours, Mine and Ours
We all have favorite essential oils...
and it's a lot of fun to share them!
I just got a lovely email from a woman named Peggy, who wrote to say she loves my
Sunshine Bath Oil recipe.
She said she modified that blend for her candle diffuser and also for a salt inhaler.
I thought... Wow! I wonder who else loves this blend? How is everone adapting recipes to work for you?
And what OTHER aromatherapy recipes are your favorites?
Which made me think... It would be really fun for us to get in touch with each other and talk about our favorite essential oils.
We could share our best essential oil blends, compare notes on how we adapt recipes for new uses,
talk about how oils affect us, and generally enjoy a sense of friendly community.
So to kick things off, I'll take a minute to share my faves... and then you can chime in with yours!
My Favorite Essential Oils
... I'd have to say my very favorite oil is frankincense.
In case you hadn't noticed I'm pretty excitable, and frank pulls me back down to earth and reminds me to breathe!
... I also LOVE a combination of lavender, rosewood, rose geranium and cedar.
I use it every night as a facial oil for my skin to help me fall asleep. It works!
... My favorite morning blend is lemongrass, peppermint and rose geranium with a bit
of tea tree for an awesome shower gel. Gets my brains moving!
My Least Favorite Essential Oils
... I really can't make myself like vetiver. I'd LIKE to like it because it's the oil of tranquility
and I could use some of that... but it just smells like a stinky old campfire to me.
... My husband Rick hates lemongrass. Go figure - I thought that was a fresh, manly kind of smell!
... I don't really like sandalwood. It makes me think of sticky things. Weird, huh?
That was a lot of fun!
Now it's your turn... Don't be shy! It feels really good to put your ideas out there, and we're all very nice - I promise we'll listen respectfully!
