Why Christmas Spirit?
Christmas Spirit is a sweet, spicy blend of essential oils that taps into the happiness, joy, and security associated with the holiday season. Not only does it smell like perfection without attacking your respiratory system like synthetic scents, but it is also an effective way to work through the many emotions and memories that crop up during this time of year. We're going to use it to prep our bodies and our homes for the season!
Step 2: We're going to slow down and just breathe. Each day as we start our diffuser, it's also our reminder to take a moment and savor the season.
Step 3: We're going to have FUN with some holiday prep tasks each day in our Facebook group! We're going to clean, create, bake, and share, and you will not want to miss all of the inspiration!
Each day you will do the following three things:
* * Diffuse Christmas Spirit Oil every day in your home.
* Take at least one full minute to slow down and breathe it in.
* Do one project each day to prep for holiday hosting.*
The last thing you need when you're fatigued are complicated steps or having to remember a bunch of things. That's why you do it with us.

FAQ:
Q: What if I don't have Christmas Spirit?
A: Grab some today! But while you're waiting, use Thieves Oil, Evergreen Essence, Idaho Grand Fir, or any oil you have and join us!
Q: How much should I diffuse?
A: This is completely up to you! We like lots of drops, but you can use according to your preference.
Q: Can I diffuse something else with it?
A: Of course! We'll give you some great recipes throughout the month!
Q: Can I use Christmas Spirit topically?
A: You bet! We love using it on the chest when we need some deep breathing.
Q: Do I need to dilute my Christmas Spirit?
A: Definitely not in the diffuser. Diffusing works best with "neat" or undiluted oils. When using topically, that's your choice, but we don't find it necessary for normal usage amounts.
Q: Is diffusing safe around my kids and pets?
A: We've been diffusing around ours for years and years and have found it hugely beneficial to them in all the ways it is to us! Make sure there's good circulation and space for your baby and an option for pets to move away from the diffuser if they choose. Many want to be close to it!
We can't wait to get festive together as we take the stress out of the season!
Oh precious sleep, how I love thee! Resting all night long in my bed with no awareness until time to arise!All kidding aside. I DO NOT take quality sleep for granted because I sent many years without good sleep. How about you? Are you more like a Rock at night or restless flitting fairy?
The magic sleeping potion that is my go to EVERY night is a special blend from 2 different bottles.
The first is not only helping my eyes stay closed but in the background it also balances the body. It's working on anxiety, depression, gallstones, heart irregularity, mental clarity and the list goes on and on and on....
I'm VERY happy with these kind of side effects!!
The 2nd potion of goodness is most helpful for keeping the ZZZZZ's coming all night long. Additionally it's going to take care of bronchitis, cellulite, hair loss and any impending UTI as well as regulation of water in my cells and reducing oily secretions. It may seem to good to be true until you remember Who gave us these potions of goodness.....our God!
While this routine works every night to keep me asleep there are MANY more options for others who might not respond to what I consider my level 1 Sleep Protocol.

Inflammation is a natural response in our bodies, but chronic inflammation can lead to health issues. Combatting inflammation can be as easy as incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into our diets. Bright and colorful fruits and vegetables, healthy fats like avocados and nuts, and omega-3 fatty acids found in fatty fish or plant-based sources like chia seeds and walnuts are all great options. Whole grains like brown rice and quinoa, and herbs and spices like turmeric and ginger also have anti-inflammatory properties. Lastly, replacing sugary or caffeinated beverages with herbal teas can provide soothing benefits. By gradually incorporating these foods into our daily diet, we can promote a healthier lifestyle and show our bodies some love.
