Heaven Scent is a lovely floral blend that is deeply calming. This is perfect for when you want to relax and be fully present.
Patchouli is the Oil of Physicality and it is beautifully calming while it grounds you in your physical body. I often find that with my Anxiety, I get stuck in my head. I can find it difficult to move away from the thoughts to be able to become engrossed in the present moment.
Not only does the citrus note of Grapefruit combine well to break up the florals, it is also an amazing companion for Patchouli, as it is the Oil of Honouring the Body. When you are grounded in your body, you are able to get a deeper appreciation of what your physical body does and in turn be more respectful of its needs.
Ylang Ylang adds a slightly sweeter note to the blend and contributes its calming qualities. As the Oil of the Inner Child, it helps the connection with the heart which often gets ignored when the mind is overthinking. It also encourages joy and play that can be missing from life.
This blend removes the control of the mind to give the heart and physical body a chance to be heard. Having a reprieve from the mind can be amazingly beneficial for anyone who is unable to get balance ordinarily.
XOXO
This is a lovely blend that is perfect for any time of the day. Combining Ylang Ylang, Wild Orange, Sandalwood and Cedarwood, it has a sweet and clean aroma.
Cedarwood is the Oil of Community so is great to help feel emotionally connected and supported. Sandalwood is the Oil of Sacred Devotion and is often used in meditation to help calm the mind, still the heart and allow a connection to Spirit. This is a perfect addition for us overthinkers.
Wild Orange is the Oil of Abundance which encourages individuals to let go of their mindset of scarcity. Its amazing ability to uplift and relax is why we use this sweet oil in so many blends. Ylang Ylang is the Oil of the Inner Child and it helps connect us to our heart and in turn our intuition. It is also calming and joyful.
With these four oils uniting their properties, this blend is calming, uplifting and beautifully connecting.
Spring Blossoms
For my friends in the Northern Hemisphere who are currently enjoying the beauty of Spring, you will know all too well the joy of stepping outside and breathing in the sunshine and flowers. The smell that brings a smile to your lips and a warmth to your heart.
That is what I feel when I close my eyes and breath in this amazing blend of Wild Orange, Ginger and Ylang Ylang. On the surface, we can see that these oils can make us uplifted, warmed and soothed respectively, but it is when we look deeper that we can see the real power of this blend.
Spring is a time of renewal and freedom from the constraints of Winter. Wild Orange is the Oil of Abundance so as we move into this time of change, we can set intentions that allow for the growth and expansion we may be wanting to achieve. Ginger is the Oil of Empowerment and teaches us that to be successful in life, we must be wholly committed. It empowers us to take responsibility for our life's circumstances, allowing us to choose our own destiny. Ylang Ylang is the Oil of the Inner Child which helps us to connect to our heart and our intuition. It also aids us in feeling the joy and playfulness we can need after the Winter hibernation.
This blend can really help us to blossom as individuals. If you are experiencing this need for renewal and change, you don't need to wait until Spring to unveil yourself. Put this in your diffuser and start walking your new path.

Feel Good
I needed a bit of a boost today so I decided to diffuse this beautiful blend to lift my mood. The Feel Good blend brings together Bergamot, Wild Orange, Spearmint and Ylang Ylang.
Bergamot, Wild Orange and Spearmint are all uplifting, while Ylang Ylang brings its calming and soothing scent to the party.
Allow this blend to work its magic as you breathe in its sweet aroma.
Peaceful Family
The best thing about the diffuser is that you can use it to not only on yourself, but those who are sharing your space - and for most of us that means family. This particular blend of Vetiver, Clary Sage, Ylang Ylang, Marjoram and Frankincense is all about bringing peace and tranquillity into the home.
Some of the best words to describe these oils would be; calming, soothing, reassuring, grounding, relaxing, connecting and balancing - a superb combination for the evening when you are wanting to relax and connect with some family time.
The aroma is quite deep and earthy but it has just enough floral to lighten it and keep it gentle.
Evening Chill
This blend is not only a beautiful combination of floral and citrus notes, but it also has a wonderful balance of relaxation and uplifting. I personally find this combination of oils really positive for my anxiety and depression, let me explain -
Patchouli is calming and stabilising. It is the Oil of Physicality so it supports you to become fully present in your physical body. My anxiety often gets me stuck in my head which is both stressful and exhausting. Often it is when I come back to my body and the present that I realise how much I have needed it.
Lime is the Oil of Zest for Life, so I loves to lift you up and get you engaged again in what you have to be grateful for. When my depression has been like a dark cloud in my mind, Lime can be like the sun breaking through and making things seem lighter.
Lavender is calming and helps you be more self aware. As it is the Oil of Communication and Calm, it can help to encourage emotional honesty and give you the space to share your true self with others. Sometimes mental illness can be very isolating so feeling supported to communicate as your true self (rather than putting on a mask for others) is gratifying and liberating.
Grapefruit is the Oil of Honouring the Body. It helps you to listen to your true physical needs and impulses, and to take responsibility for what you feel. I think that this is important as when you spend so much time in your head, and not your physical body, you can neglect and mistreat it. Once Patchouli has brought you back into your body, Grapefruit helps you listen to what it wants to express to you.
Ylang Ylang is freeing and playful. It is known as the Oil of the Inner Child and allows you to connect to the intuition of your heart rather than focusing on the mind. I find making decisions difficult because my mind overthinks and sends me into a state of overwhelm. Being able to listen to the heart means that I may not always know what I want, but sometimes hearing what I don't want can be enough to allow me to move forward.
These oils work so well in this blend because they work together. If you don't need them to do all this, that is ok. They still smell amazing and will help relax and uplift you.
