Switching to Healthier Alternatives Using doTERRA

I have spent a lot of time researching how to go about switching to healthier alternatives throughout our home. For many years I have used essential oils, however I mostly used them for healing ourselves, but didn’t really think about how they could help around the house with things such as cleaning and so forth. Recently I decided that I was going to ditch harsh chemically made laundry soap, fabric softener and many of our other cleaners. I started by making my own laundry soap, but I felt like my clothes just didn’t have a real nice smell, so I started researching. I figured it was pointless to clean the clothes with homemade soap and then throw a chemical on to make them smell good, so I started looking into essential oils. I ended up getting Lemon Eucalyptus oil blend from doTERRA, and I have been adding several drops of this onto my wool dryer balls and using it like fabric softener. Wow, what a difference! I sometimes add a couple of drops straight in with my homemade laundry soap as well. My clothes now look and feel super clean!

Speaking of doTERRA, I feel like I should talk about some of my favorite products. We can NOT live without DigestZen. Years ago, we came across this product, and it is now a staple in our home. Have a stomachache, cramps, belly feeling upset? No worries! Simply rub a little DigestZen onto your tummy and bam–you will be feeling comfort in no time! It really is that good! Another product that I personally love is the Balance oil blend. It has really helped me with my anxiety and in times when I’m feeling overwhelmed. My teen boys have used it as well. I had to sort of trick them into it at first as they didn’t want me rubbing oils on them, but it has helped with their anxiety as well. When I feel really overwhelmed, I will do DigestZen on my belly and Balance on the back of my neck and wrists.

I could go on and on as there are so many different products that we love from doTERRA. This is not to be medical advice. We recommend always talking to a specialist and doing your research. This is an informative post letting you know what we have tried and what has worked for us.
