Essential Oils For Spring + Vibrant Health for Body, Mind and Home
The Healing Power of
Plants
From lemons to oranges, grapefruit to clementines, citrus does a body good. Here are a few benefits from these gorgeous pulpy fruits
1. Cleansing Essential Oils Citrus essential oils provide great cleansing benefits to the skin as well as some anti-inflammatory ones, which make them extremely beneficial for healing blemishes or even cuts. These oils not only clean, they can also refresh and deodorize. Oils like lime and lemon help inhibit odor-producing bacteria. Rub a little under your pits on important days or pre-workout.
2. Mood Therapy
3. Fight Infections
Our fav mood-boosting aromatherapy, citrus oils such as bergamot, petitgrain, mandarin and grapefruit are incredibly aromatic and uplifting when used in mists, diffusers and natural candles. They help relieve signs of stress and fatigue, and promote relaxation and elevated mood. For a stress-free unwinding experience, soak in a bath of Epsom salt + essential oils, which benefits your senses and your skin.

Start your day with hot lemon water. First thing when you wake up, squeeze half a lemon with hot water, adding a bit of turmeric, another powerful antioxidant. Lemons are rich in vitamin C and potassium, which is an excellent fighter against colds that also stimulates brain and nerve functions. Lemons also aid in digestion and clean toxins from the blood, which keeps the skin clean.
