Why Detox?

3/29/2021

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.

Can You Live Without Grapefruit?

Grapefruit oil is becoming one of the most popular essential oils on the market. It doesn't just smell good, it IS good! I'm not sure about you, but I don't want to be without my daily drop of Grapefruit! Here's why: 

Use Grapefruit oil for weight loss
Experimental research shows that diffusing Grapefruit oil may help to curb cravings. Additionally, when taken internally, Grapefruit can help to support blood sugar levels that are already in the normal range.*

Use Grapefruit oil for skin
Keep its lovely aroma with you all day and improve the appearance of your skin by incorporating Grapefruit oil into your skincare routine to reduce the appearance of blemishes. Remember though, as a citrus oil, the use of Grapefruit oil on the skin poses a risk for sun sensitivity, so avoid ultra-violet rays for at least 12 hours after applying Grapefruit to the skin.

Use Grapefruit oil to support a healthy metabolism*
Because it contains the chemical constituent limonene, Grapefruit essential oil has internal cleansing and purifying properties and gently cleanses the body with detoxifying benefits.* To take full advantage of these benefits, simply add one to two drops to a glass of water, and drink.

Use Grapefruit oil to create an uplifting environment
Feeling bored and sluggish at work in the afternoon? Try diffusing Grapefruit oil at your desk. Need a little pick-me-up in the morning? Place a drop of Grapefruit oil in your palms, rub your hands together, and inhale deeply to take in its energizing, delightful aroma.

Sweet and Refreshing!

Sweet! Refreshing! And Tasty! I love to use doTERRA Grapefruit oil as part of a spring detox routine. Grapefruit helps to cleanse the body of any unwanted toxins in support of a healthy metabolism. It also adds a delicious flavor to any beverage for a sweet twist.

Diffusing Grapefruit makes my house smell so fresh! Combine Grapefruit and Elevation for a tangy combination that uplifts your mood and provides an energizing aroma. It’s a great motivation boost to help set your mindset and accomplish your spring-cleaning this season which is not my favorite job, so I am happy to diffuse anything that will help give me the kick I need to get it done! Grab a bottle for your essential spring collection today!

Winter Blues? Try Liquid Sunshine!

​Seems like I’ve heard a lot of comments lately about the cloudy weather! The lack of sunshine can definitely bring us down!

We get 80-100% of our Vitamin D from the sun which provides energy, lifts the mood, helps us absorb calcium and is linked to cancer, diabetes and heart disease.  Taking 2000 iu of Vitamin D during the winter months can significantly lift the mood.

Elevation (Joyful Blend) and Cheer (Uplifting Blend) are both wonderful blends to diffuse or roll on every morning to provoke energy and happiness and drive away gloom and disinterest.
