Love isn’t just a feeling—it’s a choice, a commitment, and something we intentionally cultivate every day. Whether it’s through the words we speak, the atmosphere we create, or the actions we take, love requires nurturing to grow and thrive.
And while love may not always come in the form of chocolate and grand gestures (although, let’s be honest, chocolate never hurts), it can be cultivated in simple, everyday moments—like setting the tone in your home with the perfect essential oil blend.
Lucky for you, I personally test every blend before sending it out, and I can confidently say this one is a keeper! I’ve been diffusing it non-stop, and not only does it smell amazing, but it lingers in the home for hours—which is a total win in my book!
🌿✨ Heart & Home Blend ✨🌿
- 3 drops Orange – Infuses joy and a bright, uplifting energy
- 2 drops Cedarwood – Grounds and strengthens, fostering stability and connection
- 2 drops Ylang Ylang – Encourages emotional balance and promotes a joyful heart
- 2 drops Geranium – Helps create harmony and tenderness in relationships
- 1 drop Frankincense – Deepens faith, wisdom, and inner peace
This blend is like a gentle hug for your soul—comforting, grounding, and filled with warmth. Whether you’re diffusing it in the morning to set the tone for the day, using it in a relaxing bath, or applying it as a personal fragrance, this blend is meant to encourage you to pause, breathe, and refocus on love.
Why Cultivating Love Matters
Love isn’t just about romance—it’s about how we show up every single day. It’s the way we extend grace to our spouse after a long day, the patience we show our children when they test our limits, and the kindness we offer to those around us.
The Bible reminds us of this truth in Colossians 3:14: “And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.”
And if you’re like me, sometimes that “harmony” feels more like a loud, off-key choir practice in your living room. But love is what holds it all together, even in the chaos.
Ways to Use the Heart & Home Blend:
- Diffuse it during your quiet time with God, allowing His love to fill your heart.
- Use it while preparing meals or gathering as a family, creating a peaceful and joyful home atmosphere.
- Roll it onto your pulse points for a soothing, personal fragrance that reminds you to carry love throughout your day.
- Add a few drops to a carrier oil for a massage blend, bringing relaxation and connection to your relationships.
- Diffuse it after a long day when everyone is one sock away from losing their sanctification.
