The most wonderful time of the year is here! Time to turn up the Christmas music and add Christmas Spirit essential oil blend in all the diffusers! Soaking in the holiday spirit and spreading Christmas cheer is the best part of the season, so here are 11 ways you can bring the Christmas spirit into your home and share it with others.
O’ Christmas Tree
When decorating the tree, opt for a classic, home-for-the-holidays look. Get the whole family involved, go green, and save some cash with these festive DIY tips:
- String dried orange slices or popcorn to make a garland to hang around the tree.
- Add a couple of drops of Pine essential oil to the branches for an irresistibly cozy scent to make your fake tree smell just like a real one.
#YLTIP: Grab your empty oil bottles, remove the oil dropper, and gently press the bottles over each bulb on your twinkly lights.
Sugar Plums Danced in Their Heads
Drag a mattress or some sleeping bags in front of the tree for a snuggly sleepover with the kids, a Christmas movie date night, or even a fun night with the girls, and create some special memories!
It’s Beginning to Smell a Lot Like Christmas
Make your whole house smell like Santa’s workshop! When sprucing up for holiday guests, clean and create angelic aromas all at once.
- Put several drops of Christmas Spirit essential oil blend on a cotton ball and place it in the dirt tank of your vacuum. As you go over carpets and hardwood floors, the scent will fill every room.
- Make a no-fuss, totally green air freshener with 1 tablespoon witch hazel and 15-25 drops of essential oil in 200ml of water.
Dressed in Holiday Style
If your whole house isn’t decked out for Christmas, what are you doing?! Elevate your kitchen and bathrooms with Christmas Spirit™ Foaming Hand Soap.
Give It to Someone Special
While there is so much to be grateful for this time of year, there are so many who aren’t as fortunate this year. Try and volunteer at a school, deliver food to a homeless shelter, or donate to a charitable cause. Make giving back the reason for the season by serving your community.
Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Among all the gift-giving, selfless serving, and holiday fun, make sure to take a moment for yourself. Whether you’re able to sneak away for a silent night or get a jump start on a merry morning, a bath is the perfect present for you. Mix 5 drops of Christmas Spirit with ½ cup Epsom salt and add to a hot bath, or simply add a couple of drops of Peppermint to your shower floor to enjoy a spa-like morning.
Oh, What Yum
We love a good Aussie summer with a day well spent outdoors be sure to cool off with a classic festive mocktail!
- NingXia Red Sachet – 60ml
- 1 can of NingXia Zyng
- 1 drop of Cinnamon Bark
- 1 drop of Orange
Parties for Hosting
Nothing says it’s time to celebrate the season like watching your favorite Christmas movie! Invite some friends over, jump into matching pajamas, and get cozy with this diffuser blend.
- 3 drops Peace and Calming
- 2 drops Northern Lights, Black Spruce
- 3 drops Christmas Spirit
Voices Singing, “Let’s Be Jolly”
A wise person once said, “The best way to spread Christmas cheer is by singing loud for all to hear.” We couldn’t agree more – although some might! Whether you’ve got perfect pitch or just like to listen, here are some magical music ideas for you:
- Head to a local Christmas concert.
- Create a playlist of traditional tunes and blast them all season long.
- Get the family together, host a Kids Christmas Musical, and have your kids perform a Christmas song to all – we promise you’ll leave with lots of laughter and memories cherished.
Merry and Bright
Make the most of every moment this season. Whether you plan a family vacation or stay in with a couple of Christmas movies and a BBQ, cherish each moment and surround yourself with those that matter most. PLUS, if you get stuck, you can always attempt our Gingerbread Cookies – it’ll be a delicious treat to enjoy the season with memories made.
Introduction:
I recently discovered an article about multiple sclerosis and how it affects the immune system. I became very emotional because I have loved ones in my family who have, and who have succumbed, to this disease. I felt it was important to share this information! Please pass this blog along to anyone in your life who suffers from multiple sclerosis and give them hope for natural solutions besides pharmaceuticals.
Life has a curious way of presenting us with challenges we never anticipated. This chronic and unpredictable autoimmune disease has affected the lives of our loved ones, reshaping our perspective on health, strength, and compassion. Today, I want to share our journey and explore natural ways, along with an incredible range of Young Living products, that have helped us navigate the difficult path of MS.
Understanding Multiple Sclerosis:
Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, disrupting the communication between the brain and the rest of the body. The immune system mistakenly attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers, known as myelin. This damage leads to a range of symptoms that can vary from person to person, including fatigue, muscle weakness, difficulty with coordination, numbness or tingling, and cognitive impairment.
The Power of Natural Support:
While there is no cure for MS, we have learned that providing the body with natural support can significantly improve overall well-being and help manage the symptoms. Together with conventional treatments, incorporating Young Living products into our daily routines has been a game-changer in our journey.
1. Valor® Essential Oil Blend:
Valuable for its grounding and empowering properties, Valor® has provided emotional support to our loved ones as they navigate the challenges that come with MS. This blend promotes feelings of courage, strength, and balance, bringing a renewed sense of purpose and determination.
2. Copaiba Essential Oil:
Renowned for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, Copaiba essential oil has shown promising results in managing pain and inflammation associated with MS. We have witnessed its powerful calming effects on the body, promoting restful sleep and easing discomfort.
3. OmegaGize³™:
Rich in essential fatty acids and a potent blend of natural ingredients, OmegaGize³™ has become an integral part of our loved ones' wellness routine. This supplement provides vital support for cognitive health and a healthy inflammatory response, which is essential in managing the symptoms of MS.
4. NingXia Red®:
A delicious and nutrient-rich blend, NingXia Red® has become a staple for our family's overall wellness. Packed with powerful antioxidants, vitamins, and high-quality wolfberry puree, it supports immune function, promotes energy levels, and provides essential nutrients for the body.
5. Aroma Siez™ Essential Oil Blend:
Muscle tension and spasms are common symptoms experienced by those living with MS. Aroma Siez™, a relaxing and soothing essential oil blend, provides relief, relaxation, and comfort to tense muscles, helping to manage discomfort and promote a sense of calm.
Conclusion:
While multiple sclerosis presents its fair share of challenges, we refuse to let it define us. Through the power of natural support and the incredible range of Young Living products, we have discovered a sense of hope and resilience. By incorporating these products into our daily routines, we have seen firsthand the positive impact they can have on our loved one's overall well-being.
Remember, each individual's journey with MS is unique, and it is crucial to consult with healthcare professionals in conjunction with exploring natural support. Together, we can support those affected by MS and inspire them to embrace a life brimming with hope, courage, and newfound strength.

Introduction:
Welcome, folks, to a side-splitting adventure into the realm of frozen meals! As we delve into the hilarious world of preservatives, we'll take a closer look at the notorious villains lurking in your microwavable dinners. So brace yourselves for a laughter-inducing journey through the toxic chemicals known as TBHQ, BHA, and BHT, and their chaotic influences on your immune system, flu vaccines, and food allergies.
Be sure to have your bottle of "Digize" ready just in case! These preservatives do a number on your Tummy!
1. TBHQ: A Tongue-Twister of Trouble
Let's start with TBHQ, also known as Tertiary Butylhydroquinone, or as we like to call it, the "Tummy-Bothering Hazard Quirk." Known for extending the shelf life of frozen delights like beef-based dinners, TBHQ can leave your immune system waving the white flag. This tricky preservative has been linked to allergic reactions that would make your head spin faster than your very own microwave.
2. BHA: Beefing Up the Food, Browning Your Immune System
Ah, BHA, short for Butylated Hydroxyanisole, or the "Balaclava for Health Attack." This clever chemical is commonly found in burgers, but it does more harm than create a juicy patty. BHA can wreak havoc on your immune system, leaving it weak and vulnerable. It's like having a flu vaccine that's sabotaged by a mischievous clown.
3. BHT: Burittos' Hidden Trouble-maker
Enter BHT, or Butylated Hydroxytoluene, as we like to call it, the "Bad Haircut Traveler." This cunning preservative loves to make appearances in burritos and countless other frozen delicacies. But beware! BHT can mess with your immune system in ways that would make food allergies take center stage. It's like a comedy of errors but with your health as the punchline.
Summary:
Now that we've had a good laugh at the expense of these tricky preservatives, it's time to don our detective hats and protect ourselves from their shenanigans. Next time you're browsing the frozen aisle, be sure to wield your secret weapons: reading labels and choosing organic foods. By making informed choices, you can dodge the pranks these chemicals play and embrace a healthier, preservative-free lifestyle.
Disclaimer: Remember, folks, this blog post is meant to entertain and inform. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding your health and dietary choices.
So there you have it, dear readers! The comedic world of toxic chemicals in frozen meals, starring TBHQ, BHA, and BHT. Stay tuned for more rib-tickling adventures in the battle against harmful additives in our food. Stay healthy, stay positive, and keep those microwaves spinning!
