Natural Wellness Without Oils -->

Natural Wellness Without Oils

If you don’t yet have doTERRA essential oils, that’s perfectly okay. You can begin your journey toward natural wellness with what’s already in your home. Simple, pure ingredients—like olive oil, baking soda, vinegar, honey, oats, and herbs—can be powerful tools for renewal. When I don’t have oils on hand, I often reach for things like Epsom salt for cleansing, chamomile or lavender tea for calm, or fresh citrus peel for an uplifting scent. Healing doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive—it begins with what you already have, used with intention and care.
