ESSENTIAL OILS AND WOMEN
Did you know that the average woman has a hormonal imbalance? Between pregnancy, childbirth, endocrine disrupting products that are being used by most on the daily, synthetic hormone consumption through foods, and just aging in general,, it's actually an extremely common issue. Most of us just don't realize it!
​
What does a hormonal imbalance look like? It can show up in lots of different ways! Some of the more common ones are (get ready to raise your hand a whole lot) struggling to lose weight, acne, hair loss or excessive hair growth, depression or anxiety, mood swings, heavy menstruation or severe menstruation symptoms, fatigue, night sweats, low libido, thyroid issues... the list goes on and on!
​
Below are some of my favorite oils and recipes to keep my health in check as a women! From balancing things out and supporting healthy hormones, to helping me feel good!
"There's an oil for that!"
