Happy Friday! I have a great giveaway to celebrate the upcoming weekend.
On Tuesday I shared a WONDERFUL book for moms — The Complete Book of Essential Oils for Mama & Baby. It has over 200+ oil recipes to help almost anything that ails us OR our kids! I love that you can use ANY brand of essential oils in the recipes. I shared a very soothing Anti-Anxiety recipe on my post on Tuesday – be sure to print it off!
Here’s a little bit more about this fabulous book –
Christina Anthis is a fellow blogger and mom at The Hippy Homemaker. She is a DIY blogger and an expert in aromatherapy. Christina has written an amazing book full of 200 safe and effective remedies for expectant moms and babies using essential oils. I remember being an expectant mom with babies and I wish this book had been around when my kids were little! But there are some remedies in this book that I use now, including the anti-anxiety recipe that I will share below. Some of the the other remedies are covered in the book are anxiety, backaches, breast tenderness, cold and flu, constipation, contractions, fatigue, morning sickness, depression, varicose veins and more!
Some of the natural remedies for children are allergies, asthma, blisters, bug bites, colds, colic, congestion, cradle cap, croup, diaper rash, dry skin, fever, head lice, sore throat, teething, thrush and more!
Over the past few years we have been using oils and they have helped SO much. I love that this book is for essential oils in general – you don’t have to use a certain brand. No matter which oil brand you prefer, you can make ALL of the remedies in this book. Another thing that I love about this book is that the remedies for kids age with them! Each recipe has different measurements for different age groups.
And if you don’t know that much about oils, this book has a section that teaches you about 30 plants and the medicinal properties, common uses, and precautions for each.
You can buy The Complete Book of Essential Oils for Mama and Baby on amazon!
The Kindle version of this book is a SUPER deal right now until 8/21, the Kindle edition of The Complete Book of Essential Oils for Mama and Baby is available for only $1.99.
SUCH a great resource! Send them to your mom friends – what a great gift for an expectant mom!!!
And I am super excited to let you know that I am giving away THREE of these books!!
Here’s how to enter:
- Leave a comment on this post.

Have a BEAUTIFUL Friday!
