Join me for a free fun 1 hour class Saturday 8 December 3-4pm.


Learn about doTERRA essential oils and how they can naturally support your physical, emotional, spiritual and environmental well being.


It's a sad fact that we now live in a toxin filled environment.



We can't control the toxins and chemicals we are exposed to when we are out and about, but we can control what we are exposed to inside our house.


From the products we use to clean our house to the beauty products we put on our skin. Many of these can have nasty chemicals hiding in them that over time, can build up in your body and have negative side effects on your health.



I want to show you how to use essential oils to replace all these with natural alternatives!



In this class you get to smell the oils, learn about the oils and learn how to use them safely and effectively and have the opportunity to purchase oils to start on your own journey into a more natural toxin-free life.

And then sample some yummy essential oil infused treats!
