Essential Oils – Blends & Individual Oils
Essential oils are something I genuinely enjoy and use in our home almost every day. Diffusing oils helps create a calm, welcoming environment that can support emotional balance, relaxation, and connection between partners.
Over time, I enjoyed working with oils so much that I even began creating some of my own blends.
Many of the blends mentioned on this page originally come from Young Living, where I first began learning about essential oils. I also appreciate many blends from doTERRA. Both companies offer beautiful, high-quality oils and blends, though they do come at a higher price point.
I’ve also found that companies such as REVIVE Essential Oils, Mountain Rose Herbs, and Edens Garden offer many wonderful oils and blends at a more cost-effective price point.
The most important thing is simply finding high-quality oils you enjoy using in your home and daily rituals.
Why do I love essential oils so much for the home environment?
Imagine you’ve had a difficult day or a painful argument. Even after the conversation ends, the emotional energy of stress, frustration, resentment, or tension can still linger in the space around you.
What we carry emotionally often impacts the atmosphere of our homes.
For me, diffusing oils is one simple way to intentionally shift the feeling of a space – helping create calm, peace, warmth, grounding, and emotional softness within the home.
While I won’t go deeply into the physical or medical properties of oils here, I do believe the atmosphere we create around ourselves matters deeply — both emotionally and energetically. 💛
When I work with clients, I like to personally recommend essential oils based on what I think might be best for them, but these are some of my recommendations-some are individual oils and some are blends from Young Living that can often be found through revive.

It’s not because you don’t care.And it’s not because something is wrong with either of you The real reason couples miscommunicate is something most people never think to look
When two people come together, it can feel like it’s simply about love, compatibility, and building a life side by side. And while those things matter, there’s something deeper happening underneath it all—something most couples don’t fully see at first. You’re not just coming together as two individuals.

Most couples spend more time planning their wedding…than they do preparing for their marriage. They talk about the venue, the dress, the guest list… But they don’t talk about the things that will actually determine whether their relationship lasts. And it’s not because they don’t care about their forever marriage, It’s because they don’t know
One of the most significant challenges couples face is growing apart when they don’t intentionally grow and evolve together. As someone close to me once said, “adulting” isn’t easy, but it’s inevitable as we age, we must “adult” as well as change or, as I call it, evolve. Who you were at 20 or even
