Walking through this stunning Medieval town called Pals in Spain makes me wonder what it must have been like living during this tough period. Thinking about the hardships of life in Medieval times also got me thinking about one of Young Living’s most popular essential oil blends that I never and I really mean NEVER, leave home without. THIEVES.

Now although Raymond Island may be small, it's also known for its thriving population of koalas - Australia's most prized marsupial; who also happens to love eucalyptus trees for their home and their main source of food. It's not just the koalas that love eucalyptus. We all love it for the invigorating properties and the amazing support it gives to our respiratory system. Eucalyptus essential oils are also great in helping our muscles recover after exercise. Did you know there are over 700 species of eucalyptus in the world?

I've been traveling for the last 36 hours. And as we all know, adjusting to a new time zone can be a real pain. So here are some tips to get your body adjusted quickly. If you land in a country where it's day time, I would try my best to stay up all day and go to bed about 9pm; allowing your body to adjust to the local time. First I would take one of these Ningxia Nitros, as it gives me a massive kick of energy. It also helps fight the urge for me to go to sleep. And about half an hour before going to bed, I would take two of these SleepEssence.

I feel so blessed to be living a life where you can jump on a plane one night and wake up in an entirely different environment the next morning. Today I am in Spain, at a quaint fishing village called Calella de Palafrugell in the coastal region of Costa Brava. Discovering this place was like finding a precious gem and it got me thinking about the many essential oil gems I never leave home without. So today I would like to share a little bit of information about one in particular, Cistus.

Like many of you I seem to travel more and more every year. Although I love this and know I'm very lucky. I've come to realize that every so often I miss my own space in bed. So whenever I stay in a new location no matter if it's five stars or one. I always freshen up the bed and pillow with a homemade linen spray. I love infusing it with Believe essential oil because it has a really calming and stabilizing aroma. And whenever possible I also like to diffuse my favorite essential oils just so it makes it feel a little more like home.

There are days and situations where we’re unable to get outdoors. So to have the same feeling of grounding, I like to use this essential oil blend called "Grounding" from Young Living. It helps to create a feeling of solidarity and balance. This blend is also helpful in anchoring ourselves when making important decisions relating to business or when emotions get in the way of our reality.

When I married my husband I knew he loved the outdoor life. But when he said “Let's go for a walk” I didn’t know he meant, “Let’s go climb a mountain!” So at times like these I always turn to my trusty essential oils pouch for just a little bit of extra help that never lets me down. So before we go on these so-called "little walks” I always add a drop of Peppermint Vitality in my water, and also a couple of drops of RC on my chest. This helps to support my respiratory system and also open up my airways. This is the perfect companion for a vigorous walk or any strenuous physical activities.
