How to use essential oils for your dogs.

Over the 8+ years I’ve used doTERRA essential oils I’ve had so many amazing situations where these oils have helped support my dogs health and emotional wellness! One of my most recent stories you can find here:

I’ve used everything from DigestZen for tummy’s (if you’ve ever had a Great Dane you know they have sensitive stomachs), to Serenity for calming during storms and fireworks, Copaiba for supported inflammation, healing and discomfort when my Rat Terrier broke his tail, to CorrectX for the many adventures they’ve had and come home with proof!


I also reference “Spoil Your Pet” by Mia K Freeze, DVM and Jan C. Jeremias, MSc. as well as “Essential Oils for Dogs and Cats” by Skye Petterson. Not all oils are safe for cats and dogs so be sure to only use doTERRA and reference these books before you use them. Also, I love Dr. Janet Roark, the Essential Oil Vet, she’s a wealth of information and has a private community you can get extra training and information monthly. Check out her website here.


Often people wonder about how much and how often, both for humans and pets! So feel free to pin this graphic for easy reference.

I’d love to hear from you! What oil stories do you have using oils on your pets?

Ditch and Switch

It seems like every year when January rolls around we’re looking for a way to detox, purge, get back to some semblance of normal after all the delicious yet high sugar and fat foods of the Holidays, am I right? There is also an amount of purging that goes on in our homes as we make room for all the new Christmas gifts, have a little time to sort the kids outgrown clothes or maybe realize your own clothes don’t fit like they use to.

So, what about how you clean and take care of your home? You’ve probably at least thought about all the chemicals that are in the different cleaning, body and beauty products you use. If you haven’t that’s a whole other post…anything from toxic cancer causing ingredients, dyes, hormone disruptors and more! No one should be subjecting their body to that much yuck!

It’s time for CHANGE! It’s time for little swaps that can make a BIG difference!

Join me live on FB or Instagram, Thursday January 14th at 12pm Central for a Ditch and Switch class. I’ll show you how to make cleaning products, give you recipes I already use throughout my home as well as some cost effective, natural solutions that work for taking care of your body! See you then!

Want 7 Easy Non-Toxic Swaps for your Home?

“Since cleaning products aren’t food, beverages or drugs meant to be ingested, they aren’t regulated, per se, by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The government only requires companies to list ‘chemicals of known concern’ on their labels. The key word here is ‘known.' Unfortunately, the government has no idea whether most of the chemicals used in everyday cleaning products are safe because it doesn’t test them, and it doesn’t require manufacturers to test them either. This is part of the reason why we're starting to do our own research, and go back to natural occurring, simple ingredients to remove toxins from our homes to protect our health and well being.”

These 7 Easy Swaps will walk you through each different rooms of your home and help you make simple swaps you can easily incorporate and sustain in your home.

Top 3 Tips for Holiday Decorating

I hear it all the time, “I wish I could have you come decorate for me!” or “Can you please come to my house and decorate it?” For most its not an easy thing or something that comes naturally. For me it’s my happy place, my love language, the thing that refills my cup! I LOVE it!

A lot of times i like to clear everything out of a room, off the shelves, ouf the mantel, clean and THEN bring in the Christmas decorations. But sometimes I end up feeling smothered by holiday decor and can’t wait to take it down once Christmas is over! That’s not the way it should be. So this year I' went with my gut and really went simple and only what made me happy. I was careful to leave room on a shelf or table and spread the decor throughout the rooms/house.

Untitled design-14.png

What I landed on was 3 simple tips for helping someone else decorate for the Holidays.

  1. Keep it Simple

  2. Shop what you already have.

  3. Use nature.

I explain it in a LOT more detail in my quick YouTube video so be sure to check it out!

How do you decorate for the holidays? Are you a simple and cozy, extravagant and deck the halls, or something else? Do you have a favorite holiday tip? Please share!

Pure Beeswax Candles

Pure beeswax candle making! So fun, so easy, we’ll be doing it again for sure!

All you need:
• Vessels to pour the wax.
• Beeswax
• Stainless steel vessel to melt the wax (using double boiler method), and wicks. I ordered off #amazon but I’m sure your local craft store has supplies too. You can even make your own wicks.
• We added a few of our favorite essential oils too. The big one is our two favorite holiday scents!
