New to essential oils?
Don’t know where to start?
Bought some oils, but don’t know what to do now?
Here are my 5 biggest tips for anyone starting to use essential oils.
(I’m assuming you already have oils at this point, because obviously that’s the real step 1. If you need to grab some, click here to browse our bundles and then come back here!)
Do a quick self scan
How are you feeling? What is your body experiencing? What are the things you would love for your oils to improve or help? Make sure you take note of your starting point and remember to check in with yourself as you start to use your oils. Awareness is such an important step!
Open ALL your bottles
Your oils won’t do you any good if they aren’t open. I have talked with so many people who have had oils for years, but don’t use them and this is one of the reasons why.
Oils are meant to be used! You aren’t buying them to look pretty on a shelf (although they do!)
You bought them for the wellness benefits, so let’s open them up and start smelling them!
Smell them and note which are your favorites, and any you don’t like as much too
Aromas have a big impact on us quickly. Pay attention to your body’s reactions, how you feel, and what you are drawn to.
This will help you learn what your body will respond best to so that over time you can become intuitive and natural reaching for your oils.
Keep them where you can see them!
I can’t stress this one enough! Maybe it should be step 1…
One of the top reasons I hear when people don’t use their oils is because they forget about them.
I know it’s fun to get cute boxes to store them in, or tuck them in your medicine cabinet or a drawer. BUT until you are using them regularly it’s too easy to forget to get them back out.
Opt for an open shelf in an easily visible and accessible place, or in the areas you’ll use them.
For example: Oils for sleep? Keep them on your night stand. Oils for skin? Keep them in your bathroom with your moisturizers or cleansers. Oils you love to diffuser? Keep them close to your diffuser so it’s one less step. (Another tip is to keep a container of water close by too!)
You’re more likely to use them if you can see them! So show them off!
