Road Trip!

We are traveling to the Destin, FL area to visit my brother and his family this week. We are so pumped for warmer weather. Even if it's not super hot, it's better than cold & snow! 

We're leaving tomorrow and I'm packing like crazy. Of course, not only do I have to get us out the door, I also am cleaning the house, the van, then prepping our house for house sitters and dog sitters. There are one million and one things to do. One thing I'm not worried about though, that I used to always have to keep in the back of my mind, is the atmosphere in our van!

I don’t know about you but I like some peace in my life, especially when it comes to road trips. We used to have car rides full of carsick and anxious kiddos. That meant mommy was riding in awkward positions, constantly getting snacks or toys or changing movies in the dvd player to keep everyone happy!

The fun part about dōTERRA is they actually have an essential oil blend that is called Peace so I make sure to pack that for all my long car trips, potentially anxious situations with the kids, or just anytime we are all in the car. dōTERRA’s Peace was made as part of their Emotional Aromatherapy System and is only one of six wonderful blends to help keep your and your family’s emotions balanced.

Other oils we always keep on hand on car rides are:

• Peppermint for ocassional motion sickness
• Balance and Serenity for the BACK seat diffuser to keep kiddos calm
• Elevation for the FRONT seat diffuser to help the driver stay alert
• OnGuard Touch, Throat Drops, and Sanitizing Mist for strong immune systems while traveling
• PastTense for neck and shoulder tension during longer drives
• All the new kids oils for whatever emotions or ailments pop up during trips

Just a few more hours until we hit the road! Wish us luck!
