Essential oils are a fabulous support for your creativity! Aroma has a powerful impact on the brain, and pure essential oils are particularly helpful in supporting your emotions, mood and healthy brain function.
Wild Orange is known as the oil of abundance. It has properties that aid you in seeing possibilities. It helps connect you to your inner child bringing spontaneity, fun, joy and playfulness into your studio!
One of the best ways get aroma into your space is through a diffuser. Diffusing oils is easy this way. Simply fill the well in the diffuser with water, add 2-3 drops of oil, put the cover on, and start the device! I like to place my diffuser behind my shoulder on the window sill so that the aroma is drawn past me on it’s way out the ventilation!
Another oil that is great for creativity contains Wild Orange, but has some other great oils in there too! It’s known as the Invigorating blend, is the Oil of Creativity and is called Citrus Bliss! Citrus Bliss can return motivation and drive when it is lacking! A great oil to jump start your creativity if it’s not flowing.
You can also diffuse this oil in your home to support a creative energy throughout your day, so when you head to the torch you are primed and ready to go!

The official start to summer is mere days away, but if you are sitting behind a torch, it’s plenty hot enough already! I love peppermint this time of year! It’s naturally cooling, able to lower your body temp by as much as 3 degrees, in a matter of moments!
Simply take a glass spray bottle, fill with distilled water and add 5 drops of Peppermint.
If you are feeling your temp rising, and want to cool that down, simply spray on your torso, upper chest or back of your neck. Avoid spraying near your eyes as peppermint can really make them water!! A nice controlled spray is good.
Peppermint is also invigorating and can give you a sense of greater energy, as well!
Happy Torching!
When people ask me what my favorite oil is, I do have a hard time picking because I gain so much from so many, however one oil does stand out. Frankincense is known as “The King of Oils”, and it’s for really good reason. Almost every system in the body cheers when they encounter Frank! Frankincense supports the cells of the body in a very powerful way. This oil can be used topically, aromatically, and if you know that your oil is pure with not fillers, additives, or residues, you can even use it internally. I love the brand of essential oils I use because the company was founded on a desire to know exactly what is in each bottle of essential oil, so their dedication to testing is outstanding. For this reason, I feel confident in using this oil internally to support healthy cell function in my body.
What I love most about Frankincense is how it makes me think and feel!! Frankincense has a way of shifting my thought space, and opening me up to new possibilities and creative paths. This oils is the one most likely to be found in the diffuser in my glass studio! A diffuser is a small, table top device that contains a well for tap water, and 2-4 drops of essential oil. Once the electronic device is turned on you will see a mist coming out from the device, which is tiny water molecules bound with essential oils. These molecules are dispersed into the air, allowing you to inhale as you work. I place my diffuser a little behind where I’m working so that the draw from my ventilation brings the air past me. This allows me to gain the most benefit from having it in the space.
Ask me any questions you have about diffusers. What are they, how do they work, how to I get one in my home? I love my diffusers! I have them in several rooms of my house and love the way the change the energy and how my family feels each day!
