ABOUT

As a virtual assistant, spending extended time at a desk on a computer, working online, being exposed to technology more than most, I’ve discovered over the years ways to hack into health.

One of those ways is by using essential oils, and specifically dōTERRA.

I was introduced to dōTERRA a few years ago and have used these oils through pregnancies, healing, for my kids, for my home, my loved ones and now I’m excited to share with you some of the ways I use this at work, too.

With just 13 oils I’ll share with you a host of ways to make the most of them and use them to make your life as a virtual assistant better, and more fun!

In this Book...

These are the oils you'll need to have to make all the cards inside this book.

You'll also need a diffuser and fractioned coconut oil + roller bottles for the blends.

THE EXPERIENCE

CRANBERRY & LEMON ENERGY BALLS

4 4 METHOD

everything is well combined. The mixture should have a smooth and thick consistency, like raw cookie dough.

3.

Add the chopped dried cranberries to the mixture and stir-in by hand until they are evenly distributed.

4. Take a spoonful at a time and roll them into the palms of your hand to form a ball shape. If they start to stick to the palms of your hands, just rub a tiny amount of coconut oil on your palms and continue.

6.

Test the mixture by taking out a spoonful to see if it's firm enough to roll into a ball shape. If they aren't firm enough to roll into a ball shape, put the ball mixture in the fridge for about 10-15 minutes, then remove.

5. Place the balls on the prepared baking tray and place in the fridge for about 15 minutes to firm.

Store in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to serve, because they will get soft and lose their shape if left out at room temperature.

7.

Virtual assistants often need quick and healthy snacks to fuel their digital work, as we rarely have time to take long lunch breaks to cook ourselves healthy, nutritious meals. Sometimes we just need something healthy and energising to keep us going, especially when those deadlines are tight.
