5 Day Essential Oil Challenge

5 Day Essential Oil Challenge

Cove Essentials

My apologies for not posting for awhile…

I am inviting you to take the 5 Day Essential Oil Challenge!
 
Each day, I will post a “challenge” for 5 days showing how you can use one of the Essential Oils in your daily life.
You don’t have to be a member to participate, and you can even be new to using Essential Oils.
Take it one step at a time, and see how useful essential oils can be for cleaning, for self care and how they can help you in your home.
 
Please let me know if you have any questions at all, and I look forward to sharing this experience with you. 🙂
START DATE: August 20th, 2019
END DATE: August 24th, 2019
I will be posting each challenge right here on this webpage.

Relaxing Bath Salt & Essential Oils Recipe

Cove Essentials

Use to unwind after a busy day or busy week…..

  • 2 oz (56 g) pink Himalayan salt
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) jojoba
  • 2 drops Neroli/Petitgrain
  • 2 drops Cedarwood
  • 1 drop Tea Tree (Melaleuca)

Make this blend in a 2 oz (60 ml) jar.

Put the salt and jojoba into the jar, add the essential oils, and stir with a glass stirring rod or the handle of a stainless steel spoon.

Use the whole jar to help yourself relax in the tub after a long day. The essential oils and warm water help to work out any tension held in your muscles.

Be sure to towel off the tub when you’re done with your bath. This blend leaves the tub slippery, so be careful.

Aromatherapy Playdough Recipe

Cove Essentials

This is a fun recipe to make for the kids and is a great activity for children, a fun to learn about aromatherapy and essential oils. Use a variety of oils and colors to help kids learn new scents. Some fun essential oils could include:

Wild Orange, Peppermint, Lemon, Rosemary, or Lavender.

Personally, I love to use On Guard  during the colder months of the year.  https://www.doterra.com/US/en/blog/spotlight-doterra-on-guard-protective-blend

Have fun exploring!

Ingredients
2 cups flour
2 cups colored water
1 cup salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
5 drops essential oils


Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients, except for essential oils, in a large saucepan and stir until combined.
  2. Once combined, put over medium heat. Using a spatula, continue to stir ingredients together until it forms a ball.

    Note:     Don’t overcook as it will lead to dry play dough.
  3. Remove from heat and cool on parchment paper.
  4. Once cool, add five drops of your favorite essential oil and knead until thoroughly combined.
  5. You’re done! Just store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for months of fun.
