All the wives, moms, grandmothers, career women, stay at home moms, homeschoolers, volunteers… they ALL seem to say that taking care of themselves is next on their to-do list. Well, essential oils are a helpful and effective way for us women to make some progress in this area. Here are 14 essential oils for women’s health that are fantastic for physical and mental well being, with some fun ways to use them.

6 Mar 2017That’s the prettiest infographic I have ever seen! Did you make it? If so, bravo. I’ve been trying to make these myself and haven’t succeeded in making anything but a mess, so far! I laughed reading your post at all your “etc’s” for every oil, but in a good way, because it’s true; every oilcan do so many things it is amazing. Your blog is beautiful.
