Toxin Free Home - Air Freshners

I have a class coming up that focuses on getting the toxins out of your home, so todays post is about Air freshener sprays, it is one of the biggest ways we poison our families without even knowing it! More studies are being done everyday and we learn more and more about the toxins hidden in our everyday products. 




Diffusing essential oils is a much better option! 




Or make your own room spray using the following base recipe and any of these suggested oil combination, or make up one of your own! You really can't do it wrong. 
Approx 4oz Distilled Water or Reverse Osmosis

2tsp Witch Hazel or Vodka – Either of these will act to disperse the essential oils into the water better. For personal use sprays (like hair or body spray) I use witch hazel, as the vodka can be drying and harsh on the skin

Essential Oils – The possibilities are endless

4 oz Glass Spray Bottle – I buy them from abundanthealth4u.com

                                            With 2 of his amazing teachers!  Today was Ethan's last day of first grade! This was his first year fully in a general education setting and he rocked it out! I am so proud of him and how far he has come. We still have a ways to go but I know that he will get there.

Summer Skin Spray

This little bottle has been sitting on a shelf by my desk for a couple of years! I made it at one of the first Make & Take classes I hosted for Young Living, since then apparently I haven't sat out in the sun long enough to need it or remember it. But today we filled the boys pool and I sat outside with them for several hours and that is about an hour and a half too long for my fair skin.  This magic potion is MAGIC, it isn't the prettiest bottle on my shelf, my label making skills have vastly improved since those early days but I am thinking it might be one of the best sprays I have made!
