🌿 My Daily Essential Oils Rituals for Hormones, Energy & Family Wellness
A Soft Life wellness routine from my real home + real stories
For years I’ve been on a journey toward a calmer, healthier, softer way of living... one that supports my hormones, my thyroid, my nervous system, my business, and my family. Between autoimmune challenges, raising kids, running multiple businesses, navigating perimenopause, and simply wanting to feel better in my skin, I’ve learned this:
✨ Little rituals create big results.
Essential oils have become one of those rituals for me.
Not in a “Pinterest-perfect” way… but in a real way:
I roll them on during morning chaos.
I diffuse them while shipping orders or coaching.
I use them to calm our animals (everyday necessity!).
I use them to support my hormones and aging skin.
And honestly — they make my home feel like peace.
I use Young Living because the quality is consistent and because I see real changes in my energy, mood, and hormones.
And since so many women ask me what I use and why, here’s exactly what’s on my shelf and how I use it daily:
✨ 1. Progessence Plus — My #1 Hormone Support Roller
If you’re a woman 35+, dealing with mood swings, irregular cycles, thyroid issues, perimenopause symptoms, or just feeling “off,” Progessence Plus is a game changer.
I roll it on my forearms and neck every morning (you can get a roller ball designed to fit your Young Living bottles from Young Living).
For me, it supports:
more stable moods
better sleep
fewer hormonal dips
more calm days
a general sense of “I can handle this”
When my hormones feel steadier, EVERYTHING else in my life feels lighter — my business, my energy, my self-esteem.

✨ 2. Lady Sclareol — Feminine Energy + Confidence Booster
This is my “soft life in a bottle.”
Lady Sclareol smells beautiful, feels luxurious, and supports healthy estrogen balance. Most people do NOT realize this:
✨ Clary Sage is bioidentical estrogen.
Which means it:
supports aging skin
improves elasticity
supports feminine energy
helps with hormonal dryness
increases confidence
I apply a drop to my skincare most nights — and it makes my skin glow.
👉 Order Lady Sclareol
✨ 3. My Holiday Diffuser Blend (Warm, Cozy, Perfect for December)
Right now this is diffusing in my home:
Ylang Ylang
Bergamot
Cinnamon
Vanilla
Nutmeg
Seasons Essentials (Young Living)
It smells like warm cookies + a hug + soft life calm.
No toxins. No artificial fragrances. Just pure comfort.

✨ 4. T-Away — The Oil That Calms Our Dogs Instantly
If your dogs get anxious, T-Away will change your life.
Our dogs can be wild.
When storms hit?
Delivery trucks?
Visitors?
New noises?
Chaos.
One drop of T-Away on their collar or chest and they settle right down. It’s like flipping the “calm” switch.
👉 Order T-Away
✨ 5. PowerGize — The Supplement That Skyrocketed My Son’s Running Times
This is one of my favorite Young Living stories.
My son started taking PowerGize, and almost immediately:
his 5K times dropped
his 400m sprint times broke his own records
his stamina improved
his confidence skyrocketed
No stimulants.
No jitters.
Just natural energy + performance support.
As a mom, it’s incredible to watch your child step into their potential — and this supplement supported that journey beautifully.
👉 Try PowerGize
✨ 6. Oils That Support My Hashimoto’s + Autoimmune Fatigue
Having Hashimoto’s means my body needs gentle support — not extremes.
These oils help me feel grounded, calm, and more energized without overstimulation:
Peppermint for sluggish mornings
Frankincense for grounding and emotional balance
Lavender when my nervous system needs quiet
Citrus blends on days when everything feels heavy
These are the oils that help me regulate my nervous system enough to run a business, care for my family, and still live a “soft life” even during flare seasons.

You don’t need a whole overhaul — just a little support that helps you feel like YOU again.

🌙 My Sleep Stack: The “Coma Blend” That Finally Helped Me Rest
If you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you know sleep has been one of my biggest battles — between Hashimoto’s, perimenopause, stress, and just… mom life.
And here’s the truth:
✨ When your sleep improves, your whole life softens.
Your patience.
Your mood.
Your nervous system.
Your confidence.
Your ability to run a home and a business.
After trying everything from magnesium to weighted blankets to mindfulness apps, I finally landed on a gentle, natural sleep ritual that supports my whole system instead of shocking it.
I call it The Coma Blend — because that’s exactly what it feels like (in the best way).
Here’s what I diffuse at night:
Dream Catcher
Stress Away
Peace & Calming
Valerian
Lavender
Cedarwood
This blend is like letting your whole body exhale.
It supports:
deeper, more restorative sleep
less nighttime overthinking
calmer nervous system
smoother mornings
more emotional stability (especially in perimenopause)
And if you want even deeper calm…
✨ The Rutavala Sleep Roll-On
I consider this one my secret weapon.
I roll Rutavala on my wrists, neck, and under my ears and within minutes I feel my blood pressure lower, my muscles loosen, and my mind slow down.
And the scent?
Heaven.
Soft, grounding, peaceful.
It’s the perfect addition to your nighttime ritual if you want sleep to feel luxurious instead of elusive.

A Cooling Spray for Midlife Warm-Ups 🌿
One of the simplest things I keep on hand — especially during midlife — is a light, refreshing cooling spray. This isn’t about “fixing” anything. It’s just a gentle, supportive ritual that helps your body feel a little more comfortable when it suddenly decides to turn up the internal thermostat.
This spray is especially nice for the back of the neck, wrists, or a light mist across the chest or arms.
Cooling Spray Recipe
In a small spray bottle, combine:
1 part witch hazel
3 parts water
10 drops Peppermint
5 drops Clary Sage
5 drops Jasmine
Shake gently before each use.
Peppermint gives that immediate cooling sensation, while clary sage and jasmine add a grounding, softly supportive note that many women love during hormonal shifts. The scent is light, feminine, and refreshing — not overpowering.
Tip: Always avoid spraying directly on the face or near the eyes, and do a small patch test if you’re new to topical oils.
A Simple Wake-Up Diffuser Blend for Mornings ☀️
If mornings feel foggy, sluggish, or hard to get moving, a wake-up diffuser blend can help set the tone for the day — without relying on more caffeine.
This is one of my favorite blends to diffuse while getting ready in the morning or while making breakfast.
Wake-Up Diffuser Blend
Add the following to your diffuser:
8 drops Awaken
8 drops Lemon
5 drops En-R-Gee
This blend is bright, clean, and energizing without feeling harsh. Lemon adds clarity and freshness, Awaken brings an uplifting emotional tone, and En-R-Gee gives that gentle “let’s go” feeling — especially helpful if mornings aren’t your favorite time of day.
You can diffuse this for 30–60 minutes in the morning, then switch to something softer or more grounding later in the day.
A Gentle New Year Diffuser Blend
I don’t approach the new year with big resolutions or rigid goals anymore. Instead, I like to create an atmosphere — something that quietly supports clarity, steadiness, and intention as the days unfold.
One of my favorite ways to do that is with a diffuser blend that feels grounding and expansive at the same time.
For the new year, I’ve been diffusing a combination of:
Highest Potential
Hope
Gratitude
Abundance
There’s no strict formula here — I usually add a few drops of each and adjust based on how the space feels. What I love about this blend is that it doesn’t feel energizing in a pushy way or calming in a sleepy way. It simply creates a sense of openness and steadiness — like clearing mental clutter and making room for what’s next.
I’ll often diffuse this blend in the morning while journaling, planning my day, or easing into work. It’s also lovely in the late afternoon when I want to stay present without forcing productivity.
Rather than setting intentions that feel heavy or overwhelming, this blend serves as a quiet reminder of how I want the year to feel: supported, grateful, open, and aligned.
