Essential Oil Applications
Download 50+ tips on the roll-on bottles in the kit!
The oils you have received are diluted in a base of fractionated coconut oil so they are easy, safe, and effective when applied to your skin. Most citrus oils, like Wild Orange, are photosensitive. This means that they should not be applied on skin that will be exposed to UV rays. You could get a sunburn so please be careful.
Oils are wonderful applied directly to your skin. They can be applied to the bottoms of your feet for a systemic application. Did you know that when applied to the feet the oils are absorbed into the bloodstream in 30 seconds and into your cells in 20 minutes? You can also apply them to specific areas of concern (e.g., sore stomach = apply the oils on your stomach). Sensitive areas need to be avoided (e.g., eyes, inside the ears, broken/damaged skin, etc.). If you do get some essential oil in a spot and it stings, apply any type of oil you have handy to flush it out (e.g., olive oil, vegetable oil). Do not use water.
You can also use these rollers to inhale the aroma. You can also roller some of the oil into the palms of your hands, cup your hands over your nose, and breath deeply. When inhaled, essential oils have been shown to support your mental and physical well-being.
You can also layer these oils! For example:
Peppermint + Lavender. This is great for headaches and bug bites.
Peppermint + Wild Orange. I love this one for an afternoon energy boost.
Wild Orange + Lavender. You want to calm down, but it’s not time for bed. Get calm and optimistic!

Clothing Swap Corner
What is clothing swap?
Sometimes, we buy things that we wear once and forget about them, or we have clothing items that we don’t wear and love anymore.
Instead of throwing away clothing in good condition, or keeping them in our wardrobe to collect dust, we can give it to someone who will wear them.
The Clothing Swap Corner is where each of attendees brings clothing and accessories to the event. All of the items are fair game, so you can trade, barter, and donate clothes to your friends while snagging some new stuff to breathe new life into your closet.
You have to bring unwanted clothes which are in good condition.
The clothes will be spread around, and after that, the people will start checking the clothes that other people brought!
Whatever you like, and it fits you – you can take, free of charge.
In that way, you will get “new” free clothes, and the ones you don’t like anymore will find a new owner – so it is a win-win!
Guidelines for clothing swap:
-
It is for all sizes and shapes – This might be a concern a lot of people have but don’t worry!
Usually, there will always be something for everybody, as these clothing swaps include everything from tops and bottoms to jewelry, purses, shoes, and other miscellaneous accessories. -
Only things in good condition – Pick items that are clean and in excellent condition. If clothing items are in poor condition, including stained, smelly, scratched, broken, missing pieces, etc., it’s best to repurpose them as cleaning rags.
-
There's no minimum or maximum number of items to bring. All remaining clothes after the clothing swap will be donated.
How it works:
-
Drop off your clothes before 11:30pm, we'll organize them, come back at 1:30pm for the Clothing Swap Party! 🎉
Intuition Activation Workshop
Become empowered with your own deep insights within. We are all intuitive beings but we may lose touch with our intuition because we were told our emotions, feelings, and gut instinct are irrational. Imagine you becoming in trust with yourself and your own inner wisdom. This is the first step in many series of workshops to help allow your heart, heart, and gut to be in sync.
Join us for a 2-hour activation class to help us get on that journey in awakening your intuition through discussion, yoga, meditation, mantra, tarot cards, and journaling.
