Some days your skies are clear, blue, and beautiful—and some days your picnic plans are interrupted with an unexpected storm warning. But don’t worry! Ruined plans can be a bummer, but the sun will come out again soon. In the meantime, try one of these essential oil blends that will remind you of getting a great, big hug!
SARA™ is a sweet blend of Geranium, Ylang Ylang, and Rose. Think of SARA as a big sister, ready to wrap you up in a quilt, hand you a cup of cocoa, and comfort you with compassion. Try rubbing a drop of this blend onto your wrists when you feel like you could use a listening ear. Dilute it with a few drops of a carrier oil to keep your skin happy.
If you have way too many alarms set on your phone, an ever-growing to-do list, or a pile of dirty dishes that keeps doubling in size, you might want to reach for Present Time™. Diffuse this delicate scent as you take a minute to reconnect with the present and let go of the expectations you have for yourself. Once you feel calmer, consider doing those dishes before the leftovers grow legs!
Ready to let go of some of the “nope” from your day? Throw on some jams, roll out your yoga mat, and diffuse Release™. After stretching out and focusing on your breathing, you might just feel like saying, “Heck yes!” instead.
Sometimes all we need is a little nature. Even if you can’t get outside, you can connect with your roots by taking a tech detox for a few hours while diffusing Grounding™. This blend of White Fir, Black Spruce, and Pine combines into a forest-inspired aroma. Close your eyes and breathe in the scent of the great outdoors as you enjoy some quiet time.
Looking for some sunshine? Try a little Hope™. While it can’t really change the weather, it might just be the bright spot on a dark day. This gentle blend can be added to a favorite lotion, diffused, or applied topically.
Couldn’t we all use a little more Peace & Calming® in our lives? This gentle blend is one of our most popular essential oil blends, and for good reason! Whether you need a bear hug or are trying to settle in for a night’s hibernation, diffusing this scent adds a special something to the end of a long day.
It can be hard to gather your thoughts after a long day. Or gather your family for dinner. Or gather strength to keep up on your goals. Sound familiar? Try diffusing Gathering™ as you turn daily chaos into calmness by journaling, meditating, or writing an award-worthy to-do list.

I absolutely love to diffuse Theives and putting lavendar on me. I love oils. I don't have these, so it would be amazing to win! Thanks for the giveaway!!
I currently only have Valor but put it on when I am feel not so confident, it gives me a boost within seconds. I have Joy now and I feel like it gives me a hug as I apply.
Well I am having one of those stressful work days - so when I read this post - I totally thought - PICK ME - I really really NEED these oils right now.
Yes please!!! Have not had a chance to experience any of these oils so far!
I love Valor! It has the most amazing smell to me. My all-time favorite oil that always feels like a hug is Peace and Calming. It is my go to!
Sacred Mountain and Jasmine are my oils for calming my soul, they are amazing
My two daughters who are 10 and 7 steal my valor ALL THE TIME!! It gives us all an extreme amount of comfort and peace...we cannot live without it!!
It's incredible the effects that a human hug can have on an individual. I've seen it time and again with children who come from broken homes, or have spent their first years in an orphanage. They are sad, lonely, and broken. It seems an insurmountable task to bring life back into their little bodies. Yet, little by little, with a smile, a hug, a gentle hand on a shoulder, I see these wee ones begin to trust and hope and love again.
As an adult I know that my hardest days can be made that much easier when someone offers a hug. What a relief to know I can grab a "hug from a bottle" anytime it's needed now :)
These are all some of my most favorite oils!!! Would love to win them free!!
I have been wanting to try Sacred Mountain. Love Valor!!
