New video is up: Be Still. Pause.
Self-care doesn’t always have to be a big routine, sometimes it’s one small moment that helps you open your heart safely.

Something that came up in a reading yesterday really landed for me: when my heart is closed and my logical brain keeps taking over, I’m not allowing… I’m interrupting the process.

So today I blended for that. The oils I pulled were: Frankincense, Cedarwood, Rose, and Coriander Seed, a blend for stillness, nervous system support, and gently coming back into the heart.

If you’ve been overthinking, stalling out, or trying to “figure it out,” this is your reminder:

You don’t need to solve it. You need to pause long enough to let it move.

What helps you come back to your heart, breath, scent, music, movement, prayer, a bath?

New video alert:
“I want to like Patchouli… but I can’t,” or “Ylang Ylang is beautiful, but it’s a lot.”

Calm Your Nerves, Warm Your Heart: Patchouli + Ylang Ylang Blend is all about how these two oils can feel—not just how they smell.
In the video I share:
• why double distilled Patchouli is smoother and more “wearable”
• the quick, simple breakdown of Ylang Ylang grades (Extra vs Complete)
• and how I start blending them (1 drop + 1 drop… and then we adjust)

Watch here: https://youtu.be/WSy4oe0p75E

If you’ve used either of these oils before—what do they do to your mood? Ground you? Soothe you? Make you feel more “in your body”?

New Video: When Your Soul Needs a Soft Landing 🌹

Friends, I'm sharing something deeply personal today. After a month of struggling with depression and feeling completely disconnected from myself (and even from the aromatherapy I love so much), I finally found my way back to blending.

Today's video isn't just about creating an essential oil blend, it's about trusting the process of healing, even when we can't see where we're going.

I created "Soft Landing", a rose-forward blend with vetiver, Roman chamomile, and a choice between bergamot or sweet orange (you'll see me choose intuitively in real time).

This blend whispers: You are safe. You are held. You are not alone.
If you've been struggling lately, if you're feeling untethered or unsure about what comes next, this video is for you. Because here's what I'm learning: showing up, even in our quietest, most uncertain moments, is enough.

Watch here: https://youtu.be/1SKxFEQ0w_c

What's been helping you through difficult times lately? I'd love to hear what's giving you comfort. 💜

Minnesota logic: Get dumped with snow the week I'm teaching a Spring Equinox workshop 😂❄️

But you know what? I'm not letting winter's last tantrum stop me from preparing! I'm actually reviving an old blend called 'Garden Party' that I thought was a total failure years ago. Nobody bought it, so I discontinued it.

Plot twist: Just like Ricky Nelson thought he was being booed at Madison Square Garden (spoiler - he wasn't!), sometimes our 'failures' are just misunderstandings waiting for their perfect moment.

Lime + Geranium + Lavender + Sweet Orange = pure spring energy, even when you can't see it under all this snow 🌸
Sometimes our creations are just seeds waiting for the right season to bloom. What 'failed' project have you revisited and found new meaning in?

What does it smell like to shatter glass ceilings? My new International Women's Day blend captures the essence of every woman who's ever been told she doesn't belong.

I'm combining Jasmine for luxurious feminine power, Black Spruce for generational wisdom, Wild Orange for pure celebration energy, and Spikenard for ancient courage.

🫙😱 Y'all... I had a full-on panic attack yesterday when I reached for my beloved bergamot and found an EMPTY BOTTLE.

You know that feeling when your bestie goes on vacation right when you need them most? That's exactly what this felt like!

But here's the thing - this "crisis" taught me two incredible methods for finding the perfect essential oil substitute that I HAD to share with you.

🔬 Method 1: The science approach using GCMS reports and my Blend Precisely software Blend Precisely - You Formulate. We Calculate.

✨ Method 2: The intuitive approach based on energy and magical properties

Whether you're a data nerd like me or prefer to follow your intuition, I've got you covered!

👆 Watch the full video to see how I turned my bergamot emergency into a learning opportunity. Link in comments!

How can an oil be a top 10 aromatherapy powerhouse and still make me go "meh"? 🤔

Today I'm diving deep into Tea Tree essential oil - the oil that's saved lives, cleared energy, and apparently has been trying to get my attention about something I've been avoiding...

In this video, you'll discover:
✨ Why Tea Tree was called the "Wonder from Down Under" during WWII
✨ The fascinating Aboriginal history behind this healing powerhouse
✨ Physical, mental, spiritual AND magical properties
✨ The throat chakra connection that explains my resistance to this oil
✨ My off-the-cuff blending discoveries: Tea Tree + Bergamot, Frankincense & Geranium

Here's the vulnerable truth: Sometimes the oils we resist are exactly the ones trying to teach us something. And Tea Tree? Well, it's been trying to get my attention about my throat chakra healing for way too long! 💙

Whether you love Tea Tree or, like me, have a complicated relationship with it, this video will give you a whole new perspective on this essential oil toolkit must-have.

Sometimes the oils know exactly what we need before we do. 💜

This week has been heavy - yesterday was my Uncle Tom's funeral (though it was perfect on Valentine's Day with the sun shining, celebrating with my Aunt Alice after all these years). I've been struggling with my creative energy, and last week I forced a blend and video that just didn't feel right.

So instead of pushing for something new, I found myself called back to a blend I created in December 2024 during a time when I was reflecting on my husband's passing in 2022. I named it my "Grief & Transition" blend.

🌿 Just 4 simple oils:
• Cypress (flow & transition)
• Frankincense Carterii (spiritual grounding)
• Sweet Orange (gentle comfort)
• Rock Rose/Cistus (courage during overwhelm)

In today's video, I recreate this blend and share why Rock Rose is such an underappreciated oil for when we feel emotionally scattered or frozen. I also use my very first singing bowl from Taylors Falls bead shop to add healing vibrations.

There's so much wisdom in recognizing when we need to return to what already supports us instead of always pushing for something new.

If you're going through a difficult time right now, this one's for you. Sometimes the most loving thing we can do is simply hold space for where we are.

I spent the entire day with Frank and Kathy from Temple Harmonics learning about sound healing and vibrational frequencies. But here's what I didn't expect - my throat chakra started calling for attention in the most beautiful way. https://www.facebook.com/zentones

When you're truly tuned into vibrational healing, your body starts speaking to you differently. So today, I'm answering that call with a custom throat chakra blend featuring blue chamomile, myrrh, geranium, and lime.

Watch as I blend oils that support speaking truth without anger, finding courage when fear keeps us quiet, and communicating from the heart. 💙

Sometimes our healing journey knows exactly what we need before we do.
