What’s the Deal with Essential Oils?

You know those fancy little bottles you see in health stores or online? That’s essential oils.

Basically it’s like a field of lavender, a fresh orange peel, or even a sprig of peppermint – condensed in its pure form into a bottle.

Extracted through steam or cold-press, these oils are pure plant goodness.

From Ancient Temples to Your Living Room

History is full of essential oil wisdom. Back in the day you might have found yourself walking through ancient markets filled with scented oils and herbs. Today, science is giving a nod to what our ancestors knew. Cool, right?

If you’re into candle making, add a few drops of your favorite oil to your wax, and voila! You’ve got yourself a spa day at home. It’s artsy, fun, and smells heavenly!

Stressed? Tired? There’s an Oil for That!

Life’s busy, and let’s be real, sometimes stressful and overwhelming.

  1. I’m such a big fan of essential oils. I find them so good for so many things. I especially like lavender, as I’m a bit of an insomniac, but I also like rose oil. Now that I have children, I don’t burn them as much as I used to, but your post has reminded me I should do so more often. #mbpw
