Why Detox?

Spring is the perfect time to detox! Your body is already naturally detoxing to help it move from winter to spring. 

But why do we need to detox? Overtime we pick up toxins from our environment in the air, the chemicals added to the ground, food and products we use and from the things we put on our bodies. 

Toxins disrupt our hormone balance, contribute to inflammation, digestion & respiratory problems, weight gain and poor sleep to name a few. 

Detoxing promotes:
  • Better digestion
  • Better skin
  • Better metabolism
  • Better mood
  • More energy
  • Less weight
  • Less inflammation

What is the best detox for you?
  • Detox can be diet changes such as eliminating dairy, gluten, sugar and process foods.
  • You can eliminate toxic cleaners and body care products by replacing them with non toxic cleaners such as doTERRA's OnGuard*, Verage or Essential Skin Care lines.
  • Or you can use herbs and essential oils to focus in on the areas you want to detox.
    • Whole Body- Cellular Detox*
    • Focus on Chemicals- EnviroDetox*
    • Hormone- Indole 3 Carbinol*
    • Skin and Body Odor- Liquid Chlorophyll*
    • Heavy Metals- Heavy Metal Detox*

If this seems overwhelming, contact me and I would be happy to customize a detox plan for you! 
*Can be purchased at the Country Cupboard in Fairbury, IL.

Three Are Better than One!

Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint are three of the most common, yet powerful essential oils! Essential oils are lovely by themselves but when you combine them together you create a synergy that supersedes their effect individually! This is the case with Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint.

LaLePep as we like to call this blend is an amazing remedy to use for this time of the year as the flowering trees start to bud, the pollen content goes up and things are blooming! It soothes and calms seasonal discomforts and helps you enjoy this time of year. 

Lemon is a great cleanser for the body, sinuses and your home! In this blend, it helps to clear out congestion and irritants. 

Lavender is soothing and calming to your bodies reaction to irritants. I love to apply this to my throat, forehead and cheekbones when things feel tight and uncomfortable. 

Peppermint opens the airways, allows for more blood flow and promotes circulation to assist the body with clearing out irritants. 


This blend is best when used multiple times daily before you start to have discomfort. If discomfort arises, apply every 60 minutes until issue is resolved. 

To use: 
Blend equal parts of Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint in a bottle. Use 2-3 drops internally several times a day, diffuse 3-4 drops of the blend or dilute and apply topically to areas of discomfort. 

This trio is the perfect blend of oils to start with if you are new to oils and come prepackaged all ready to go in a kit!
