Yesterday we shared about the long-lasting relationships doTERRA builds with their farmers. Today we want to highlight the non-profit organization “dōTERRA Healing Hands™.”

Not only does dōTERRA source pure, tested-grade quality oils, but they also support people around the world with clean water & sanitation initiatives; they provide disaster relief, support projects that focus on leadership, education, and skill development for women in developing countries, and so much more. I've experienced this first hand at the Camp Fire resource center in Chico when they handed out hygiene kits. They do have to be requested to come to disasters, hence why they aren't present for all fires.

By joining dōTERRA, you are part of this global movement. Did you know that by buying the dōTERRA Hope Touch blend, 100% of the sales are flowing directly into the Healing Hands™ foundation?

We want to share a glimpse into dōTERRA’s sourcing department. dōTERRA stands out as a shining example of ethical sourcing and rigorous product testing.
This means that dōTERRA partners with growers and farmers from around the globe, building long-lasting relationships and a steady income for these people.
By supporting local communities and employing responsible harvesting methods, dōTERRA ensures that every drop of essential oil is not only of the highest quality but also contributes to a brighter future for our planet

If you are new to essential oils, let me explain to you what they are!

Essential oils are the essence of a plant, a gift from the earth, distilled and prepared for you to bring the power of nature into your home.

Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils.

Essential oils give a plant its scent, protect it from hazardous environmental conditions, and even assist it with pollination, among other important functions and benefits.

In the coming days, we’ll share many ways you can use these gifts of the earth in your everyday life. Stay tuned for products that will make you glow from the inside and the outside.

Think Pink

Native to South America, the Pink Peppercorn tree has tiny red or pink berries that are distilled into an essential oil. Pink Pepper is calming and has a pleasantly spicy and fruity aroma popular in perfumes.

How to use Pink Pepper:

-Inhale or diffuse to promote feelings of alertness

-Blend with citrus or floral oils to create an invigorating aroma

-Combine two drops with doTERRA Fractionated Coconut Oil for a soothing massage

-Add a few drops to a veggie capsule and take it internally to help calm and soothe the nervous system.

Fun Fact:

Despite its name, Pink Pepper is unrelated to the common spice black pepper (Piper nigrum) and is actually part of the same family as the cashew tree.

Here's what we have in store for you this month:

🌿 POM | Kick Back with Hinoki
Place a 125 PV loyalty order on or before September 15, and receive a free 5mL Hinoki. Also known as Japanese cypress, Hinoki is a slow-growing tree that eventually reaches approximately 114 feet tall. So act fast, as this offer is available only while supplies last!

💆‍♀️ 10% Off | Think Pink
Enjoy a 10% discount on Pink Pepper 5mL throughout September. The pink peppercorn, while similar in appearance to black peppercorn apart from the color, is closely related to cashews. The “molle,” or pink peppercorn tree, was considered a sacred tree to ancient Incans. Indigenous populations used all parts of the tree, including the pink peppercorn fruit, as herbal solutions to health needs.

Take a deep breath and experience the restorative power of Eucalyptus oil. 💨✨

Here are my top three ways to use this amazing oil:

1. Massage: Incorporate Eucalyptus oil into your massage practices by combining two drops of Eucalyptus oil with Fractionated Coconut Oil and massage into desired areas. The soothing, cooling topical sensation of Eucalyptus oil can make for an enjoyable massage experience, especially to the shoulders after a long day or to the legs and feet after physical activity.

2. Meditation: Because of its fresh, soothing aroma, Eucalyptus essential oil is a great option to use alongside your yoga or meditation practices. Enhance either of these calming activities by placing one drop of Eucalyptus oil in the palms of your hands and inhaling deeply. At the same time, you practice centering your mind with positive thoughts, enjoying the revitalizing aroma of Eucalyptus.

3. Diffusion: Add three to five drops of Eucalyptus essential oil to a diffuser of your choice and diffuse in the home for a refreshing, relaxing aroma. The scent of Eucalyptus oil makes a great companion before bedtime as you go about your nighttime routine or during the winter months when you could use a stimulating atmosphere to cut through the gloom of cold, dreary weather.

How are you using this oil? Please share it with us in the comments below.
