My Story

Basically I am a Young Living #oiladdict, who is just learning the basics and trying to share my knowledge! This is an essential oil for dummies blog because 1. I love the "for dummies" book series and 2. I am far from an expert and I just want to share my love of oils and my oil knowledge in the most basic form!















My name is Monique. I am an army wife, mother, and oil lover.

I first became aware of essential oils after my son was diagnosed with an acute autoimmune disorder. I searched and searched for a different avenue and methods to help him be healthier and happier. That is when I first came across detox baths on pinterest. My first thought was, what the hell it couldn't make it any worse! So we purchased our first supplies for detox bath time, and had a detox bath 1-2 times a week. I immediately noticed an improvement in my son. So I dug a little deeper, read a few more books and testimonials, and knew that essential oils were the perfect route for my family.

As I researched and learned more I started to realize essential oils could have a dramatic effect on more than just our physical well-being, but could also enhance almost every aspect of our lives. So I started researching more on essential oils and depression, anxiety and PTSD. I can now say that instead of taking medication for my panic attacks I am able to reach for an essential oil instead. When a fever does strike our home (which is very rarely now) I can now reach for an oil instead of medication.


My goal is to continue pursuing essential oils and become a certified aromatherapist in order to spread the word of essential oils. You can also follow my pinterest and see tons of recipes and information I post there! In the end my hopes are to have rid my house of all toxins and be able to make my own products that are effective and safe for my home and family!
