I’ve always said, “When in doubt, get your Frankincense out.” I can say the same thing for Copaiba. It helps the body to be more resilient and it does that through several different body systems. For me, it’s a main stay and daily use essential oil. I love Copaiba.
Why do you love Copaiba essential oil?

And we all fell like dominoes .... sorry I went AWOL. Only my scheduled posts were coming through. The big C did get us and it seems, the older you are, the harder you fall. Littlies all good and had nothing more than a runny nose and bad attitude. Grown ups hit much harder with fevers, aches and pains, headaches, fatigue, etc. 🥱
So, what did we do to support ourselves? Actually there are a whole heap of things (including a chemist load of vit D, Zinc, vit C, etc that my beautiful neighbour stocked us up on) but let's just stick to oils for now.💛
😳Fevers - thanks
for the tip: Eucalyptus and Peppermint in a bowl of water. Dip in a cloth to put on forehead and back of neck. So cool and refreshing. Defs provided relief.
💦Copaiba for pain! Muscle aches, headaches, shooting pain, etc. Copaiba! Copaiba! Copaiba! This oil is magic. Save yourself time and get the softgels. Amazing stuff!!
Easy air🌬 for all things chest and cough! We had it in steam showers, as chest rub and in diffusers.
💪On guard in a spray bottle with witch hazel and cooled boiled water. I use this in lieu of products like Glen20 for surfaces and furnishings.
Magnesium baths with lavender 💜
I've already mentioned the flu bomb and the headache blend but feel free to DM me if you have any questions
*Always use oils according to safety instructions. Doterra has safety info on their website.
This is just what we used and by no means am I discounting pharmaceuticals that might be beneficial to others.

I've been using oils for over 4 years now and I am still blown away by their power.
I discovered this disgrace after tidying up toys that had been confiscated and put up above the kitchen cabinets, out of reach of little hands. I have no idea how I let it get this bad but my tip to others who have similar cabinets, DON'T LOOK 👀!
As seen in the first pick, I scrubbed for about 30 minutes with very little progress before trying Lemon oil. I used about 8-10 drops per cabinet, but LOOK AT THEM!!!
No elbow grease required.
Flipping AMAZING!!!

First things first, let me tell you the basics of what we are doing to help our sickie and keep the family well:
💪 Immunity blend (to kick big C butt) on feet and spine of everyone, every few hours. It's a combination of Frankincense, Lemon, On Guard, Oregano, Tea tree and Thyme oils, diluted with FCO dependant on the age of each person.
*Feel free to DM for exact quantities
🌬 Chest rub for congestion. I cheated and used Doterra's pre-made Easy Air stick but making your own is heaps cheaper and can be tailored to your individual needs.
*Feel free to DM for recipes
🙆♀️ Headache blend of Frankincense, Lavender, Peppermint and, my much loved Copaiba on temples and base of skull/top of spine. My son says it has also helped him with peaceful sleep.
*Feel free to DM for exact quantities
Keep your eyes peeled for more
The big C has found its way back into our house and one of my kids was hit pretty hard. Fevers, dizziness, headaches and an upset stomach. I have heard that it also messes with your emotions and question whether that is a result of the fearmongering that the media seems obsessed with or how vulnerable we feel when sick. I suspect one of the other kids had it too but he tested negative and only had mild symptoms.
The sickie was hit hard yesterday but greatly improved today. I'm so thankful to have oils at hand to support us and keep us sane. Over the next few days I'm going to share some of the ways we used oils to protect ourselves.
There are 7 people living in our home. 7 folks in iso this week. 7 breakfasts, lunches and dinners, 7 voices all talking at once (or arguing), 7 lots of showers, washing, entertaining and prioritising 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳.... but gosh they are good company!
We have wonderful, supportive friends and community who have offered assistance. We are safe, dry and happy, which I am utterly grateful for. The only real challenge has been a muddy backyard which restricts our outside time (aka my sanity).
Years ago an incredible friend gave me a blend of Rose, Myrrh and Eucalyptus when I was going through a particularly difficult time. I hope she doesn't mind me sharing her words on the note which read "you are loved (Rose), you are safe (Myrrh) and you are well (Eucalyptus)". This blend has been my go-to whenever I have faced scary moments.
So when my sons test read positive, it was the first blend in the diffuser.

I have been eating a lot of crap recently, using the old "busy" excuse and fueling my body with the wrong things. I'm a working mum with a shift working husband (that brief description really doesn't cover the very real juggle that is our life).
It's EASY to take short cuts when you are feeling tired and overwhelmed. Indulge in "treat" foods as a reward (😱 that last sentence could just as easily be used by somebody training a dog!). What was I thinking? Putting rubbish into my body is not a treat! More often than not, it's toxic and makes you feel gross. It also perpetuates that tired and overwhelmed feeling. Poor food choices effect not just my bodies weight and energy levels but also my mind and moods.
It's actually EASY to nourish your body with healthy and delicious food. But if you're anything like me, it feels like an extra job or you just don't know where to start. I'm on the other side of the big 4-0 now and my metabolism doesn't work the same way that used to. I can no longer eat whatever I feel like, whenever I feel like it. I need to really tune into my body and listen to what it is telling me when I'm craving certain foods.
My eldest son announced the other day that he was 54kg. This was the weight I was when I met my husband in my late 20s, before I had four beautiful babies, before I really understand what "busy" was, before I learnt to be kind to myself. I don't think my body's natural healthy weight is 54 kg but I'm certainly a long way from that now, and would like to get at least half way back there.
A couple of days ago I received this photo in the mail from my beautiful cousin. It was taken at their wedding a few months back. Gosh it was a gorgeous wedding! I love the photo but it was interesting to see how my face has changed with age and not taking care of myself as well as I should. It really is time for a change.
I want to be the best version of myself in mind, body and spirit. I want to teach my kids that it's ok to take care of yourself. I want to find balance that allows me to enjoy the things I like but also nourish my body so that I am healthy and able to handle age, illness and stress in the best way I can.
So today I start. I've got lots of learning to do and will share along the way in the hope that the Ripple Effect works to help others too. Wish my luck and feel free to share any tips or healthy recipes.

We are away on holidays at the moment and I'm so pleased that I packed this magic stuff. It's a combination of aloe vera gel (straight from my garden plants) peppermint, geranium, helichrysum, and lavender oils and filtered water. Perfect after sun spray to care for my babies precious skin when we are enjoying ourselves a little too long in the Aussie sun.

My little lady got bitten by a big green ant this afternoon! 🐜 She cried and whimpered "hehwp me" 🥺
Always so grateful to have these magic oils to take the sting out. She was completely fine within seconds of treating with oils.
Have you looked at the toxic crap in commercial brands of sting relief sprays lately?! I'm glad our family has a natural alternative- Thank you Doterra!
Safe! Effective! Affordable!

My story
My name is Meg and I was introduced to essential oils through a trusted friend when I brought my third baby home from hospital. Sleep was a distant memory and my whole family was struggling with the change to our family dynamic. The use of these oils enabled me to help support myself and my family though emotional and physical challenges and regain our sense of harmony and contentment. I have seen first hand the positive impact these oils have had on my family and in our home. Now, my aim is to share the benefits these oils can bring in the hope that others may experience the same peace, empowerment and joy that I do. I am looking forward to helping you explore and experience the potential of essential oils.
Contact me for more information and we can work together to establish what will be the best fit for you and your family.
I've been told that before you start any business you should be very clear about WHY you are doing what you are doing. I started using essential oils because I wanted a healthy and more natural alternative for my family.
I started a business as a Wellness Advocate because I want a balanced life where I am present when my family need me, to make my husband proud and be a good role model for my boys and to show them that you should do the things in life that bring you the most joy. For me, that thing has always been to help others. When I was younger, that often meant enabling people but as I've grown and learnt I now see that empowering people produces vastly different results. DoTERRA resonates with me because it empowers people to choose a healthier lifestyle.
This crazy mob are my wonderful, exhausting, loud, joyful, beautiful and perfectly imperfect reason why.
