Relax - Room and Bedtime Spray

I know it has been a while since I posted but as soon as I tried this combination and the wonderful results I have felt from it, I had to share :)

Life has been on the stressful side and sleeping and I have not been friends
So I needed to find some oils to help me :)

I have been obsessed with Fennel lately, for me it is helping me feel more balanced and well rounded, more down to earth, bonus it smells amazing, though I do not like the taste of licorice, I love the smell :)   Fennel has been helping but just not enough so Stress Away to the rescue :)

For this spray
I used a bottle I found at the dollar tree - Love saving money :)

I added
5 Drops of Fennel
6 Drops of Stress Away
filled it 3/4 with Vodka (this is the cheap stuff found on the bottom shelf)
and the rest with distilled water
Put the top back on and shake :)
Then spray to your hearts content :)

I love to spray it on my pillows - I have also not only had some great night sleep some wonderful dreams! :)

Information about the oils

Young living has a combination oil - Stress Away
One of my favorites, it is the oil that actually turned me on to Young Living.
Here is the information about it from their site: Young Living’s Stress Away™ essential oil blend is a natural solution created to combat normal stresses that creep into everyday life. Stress Away is the first product to contain the unique stress-relieving combination of lime and vanilla pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils. Stress Away also includes copaiba and lavender to reduce mental rigidity and restore equilibrium. Featuring powerful plant constituents, such as the cedrol found in cedarwood and the eugenol that occurs naturally in vanilla, Stress Away can help induce relaxation and reduce occasional nervous tension.*

The other is Fennel - I have been using this one a lot
Here is the information about it from their site
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) has a sweet, earthy, anise-like aroma that is energizing, vitalizing, and balancing. It is stimulating to the circulatory, glandular, respiratory, and digestive systems.* It also may support feelings of well-being during the menstrual cycle.* Fennel has an approximate ORAC of 2,383,680 (TE/L). TE/L is expressed as micromole Trolox equivalent per liter. EarthKosher Certified

DIY Room Freshener

I have been having so much fun making all these goodies, and researching different things to make

My Favorite thing in life is when people say how good my home feels, how comfy it is :)

One of the things I do is always have some sort of room freshener going
From Candles, Warmers (Scentsy), Reeds, Solid Room Fresheners to Room Sprays

Well I LOVE Room Sprays, and started looking at how much I spend on them
Yea, never going to spend that much ever again!!!

I looked to, of course Pinterest first and my boards (I had quite a few pinned)
Most of the ones I had pinned consisted of a large amount of water
That did not work for me, I wanted something that would bind better to the Essential Oils and when I sprayed it I did not want "water" left to dry

So the research/search continued

I learned that Alcohol Dries FAST and that it is a great binding agent, thus why it is used in Mouthwash so much then I found  - Cheap Ways to Make Your House Smell Good on eHow (Click to see original post)

What you need
1/2 Cup Vodka (the cheap stuff works fine - this bottle was $6)
1/2 Cup Distilled Water
Essential Oils - I used
    3 Drops of Lemon
    3 Drops of Orange
    3 Drops of Grapefruit

I call this spray my Orgasmic Citric Happiness!!!

This is by far the BEST Room Freshener I have EVER Used!!!!

I can't wait to try different blends of Oils :) :)

Enjoy!!! :) :) :) :) :)
