The Best Essential Oil Blends for Summer

June 25, 2018

We are entering into our first full official week of summer and I could not be more excited to celebrate the season.  All throughout our cheery new house, doors are thrown open, light is flooding in through the windows, and there is a palpable sense of new beginnings in the air.  When I say that they are in the air, I mean that both literally and figuratively.  It is impossible not to feel a sense of excitement around our neck of the woods.  My husband and I are finding that our new life in Kansas City is exceeding our wildest expectations and are so happy that we made this move when we did.  The air in our home is also LITERALLY filled with the scent of the season because I have had this collection of the best essential oil blends for summer pumping through our abode for weeks, helping to ease us into the hot, summer days ahead.

Now, I have a confession before I go any further in this post.  I personally put off using essential oils in earnest until THIS YEAR because the barrier to entry felt too high.  That is why this new series I am doing on essential oil blends is special.  Each of the blends that I will be sharing can be made from a fabulous $20 set of 14 essential oils you can purchase on Amazon.  The cute little diffuser I personally use and recommend is $15.  That means you can test out the advantages of using essential oils yourself for $35!  I swear by both products (no, this is not sponsored) and can attest to both their quality and durability.  In fact, both the oils and my diffuser made the cross country move with us!  You can learn more about the fabulous benefits of using essential oils, and find links to my recommended essential oils set and diffuser, after the jump.

Welcome the season and ease your transition into summer with this collection of the best essential oil blends for summer, all made from a $20 set of 14 essential oils available on Amazon. The barrier to entry into the world of essential oils has never been lower. Learn more about the benefits of using essential oils on Musings on Momentum!

Springtime Wishlist

March 15, 2018

There is something about the transition between seasons that I love, particularly the transition from winter to summer.  After months of cold, bleak weather the sun is suddenly shining, birds are chirping, and flowers are in bloom.  It feels like a fresh start on all fronts and what better way to celebrate a fresh start than with a little seasonal shopping?

Three Easy Ways to Keep New Year’s Resolutions

Is it just me or is anyone else finding that their New Year’s resolutions have already gone out the window?  I embarked upon 2018 with so much positivity and excitement, ready to take on the world, and then I got the dreaded flu going around the United States.  My best laid plans for keeping my New Year’s resolutions disappeared somewhere around mid-January and, now that I’m healthy, I am in major need of a reset.  Due to the impact the never-ending flu had on my January plans, I jumped at the opportunity to partner with wanu water to shine a light on three simple ways to keep New Year’s resolutions on track.

As far as I’m concerned, 2018 is the year of health and I’m focusing on how I can make little changes to my daily routine to encourage my goals.  Check out my top three ways to keep New Year's resolutions alive all year long!
