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.

Being new to using oils, I haven't tried any of these yet, but I certainly have days where I feel like I need a hug! ;)
Oh hell I would love to win any of these oil's. I haven't done in oil yet that I didn't like.
White Angelica and Valor for those days when I feel like it is an uphill battle. Always Stress Away on my diffuser bracelet and lots of calming deep breaths anytime I open my oil cabinet!
I really love to diffuse peace and calming. When I'm feeling down. I also like to put a little Harmony on my wrists and smell the floral aroma!! When my daughter is having a hard time and she wants to throw a tantrum we both put Release over our hearts and rub it into our hands breathe deeply and sing the song "Let it Go" from Frozen. Lol! I know it sounds cheesy but, the combination of the oils and the lighthearted singing soon makes her forget what she was upset about and I have my patience back!! These are just a few of the oils I turn to!! There are so many I love!! Thank you Young Living and Gary and Mary Young for giving me something that helps me and my family be healthy and well!!
Sacred Mountain has become one of my favorite "go to" oils. It makes me think of the old ad "Calgon, take me away". For me it is "Sacred Mountain, take me away!" and all of everything that's not perfect just melts away!!!
Valor and Release... win for today! Along with Frankincense, lavender and panaway!
Christmas Spirit and especially Idaho Blue Spruce are the most uplifting to me. They are also comforting to diffuse at night and prompt sweet dreams and feelings of happiness. I love to share them with others as well.
All of these essential oils sound marvelous and I would be thrilled to win them. These scents are just what we need in our busy lives. Scents that will help of focus, relax and enjoy life. The combo I'm enjoying now for calm and relaxation is a mix of Lavender, Cedarwood and Frankin
I really like diffusing Peace and Calming and Stress Away, but at night I love to diffuse Sleepyize. During the day I wear Cedarwood for it's calming affects it has on me.
I like Peace and Calming II. I use it most days after my showering.
