Marie-Pier DionneEssential Oils to Help You Through the Holiday Season
Updated: Nov 27, 2021
The Christmas season is for creating joyful memories and reflecting on meaningful moments of the past. But for many, the never-ending to-do lists, dinners, parties, family and friends visiting can feel overwhelming. Stress and the holiday season often go hand-in-hand. Essential oils are great tools to keep your spirits up and maintain your energy. Their aromatherapeutic benefits can support our mind, body, and soul. Scent has the powerful ability to transport us to past memories. To help you get through this busy season, we came up with easy ways to incorporate aromatherapy into your holiday routine.
Bring the Holiday Spirit into Your Home With These Blends
Whether you want your house to smell like a Christmas tree, gingerbread cookies, or the crisp winter air, we got you covered with our selection of single essential oils and blends. Ditch the toxic candles and infuse your home with pure, festive goodness.
Uplift the spirit and cleanse the air with our energizing Noel Blend. It combines Balsam Fir, Cedar Leaf, Sweet Orange, and Cinnamon Bark into a sweet yet spicy holiday scent. Not only does it smell like a Christmas Tree in a bottle, but it is also a powerful tool to help boost and maintain a healthy immune, respiratory and digestive system.
HOW TO USE:
Add 5 to 10 drops to your diffuser. If you have pets, please allow them to escape if they don't approve of the scent.
You can use Noel on your immune points by adding 10 - 12 drops in a 10 ml roller bottle filled with your favourite carrier oil. For children 5 yrs and up, we suggest 5 drops.
Use in a facial steam bath by adding 1 drop to boiled water and by covering your head with a towel. Take deep breaths. Add a few drops to your sauna or hot tub to create a full spa experience.
Apply it to your abdomen prior to eating by adding 5 drops in 5 ml carrier oil of your choice.
Our most popular blends Armour & Wheeze are also great companions to get through the holidays, but also wonderful to use all year round!
Get Some Sleep Before Santa Comes
If you are feeling anxious, excited, or have trouble falling asleep, essential oils are bound to help ease your mind. Our Fleur roller blend, Roman Chamomile, Lavender, Ylang Ylang, Ho Wood, or Bergamot will be your best friends to gently allow you to switch off. These are also safe to use with your kids when properly diluted. Remember, essential oils are very potent. So safety first! If you don't own a diffuser yet, check out our Sweet Dream Kit, which includes our Aurora Diffuser, Lavender & Ho Wood.
HOW TO USE:
Apply Fleur under your feet, temples, back of the neck or simply roll it in the palm of your hands and inhale deeply.
Add your favourite oil to your bath by adding 8-10 drops to a bath salt and 1 tsp of your favourite carrier oil.
You can use our single essential oils suggested above alone or use them to create your own diffuser blend. Simply add 5 drops to your diffuser. Turn it on 30 minutes prior to going to bed for about an hour.

Add 1 drop in the palm of the hands and inhale deeply.

Bergamot & Palmarosa for When You're Feeling Stressed Out
Bergamot is an awesome oil to boost your mood and ease tensions. Bergamot is often used in meditation and helps ease the mind. Simply diffuse Bergamot by itself or combine it with Frankincense and Lavender to help bring focus and calm.
Palmarosa is not only great for the skin but also uplifting and helps soothe anxiety. It may help one bring stability to chaotic situations. It is also an immunostimulant and purifies the air. This is a safe oil to use with children at a proper dilution ratio.
