You’ve probably heard of the many benefits of meditation, and maybe you’re curious about how to start a meditation practice for yourself. Maybe you are a little skeptical about the benefits of meditation. That’s okay!

I am going to start off right here saying that I don’t sell essential oils for an MLM company. I have nothing against DoTerra or Young Living, but I don’t sell either one. Both companies have great quality products, but I want to start this series by letting you know that I don’t sell either one and I am not trying to recruit you. 😉 I will let you know what I recommend below, but wanted to start this with the disclaimer that I am not a distributor or a member of any group like this!
Now that we have that out of the way, on to the good stuff! The best uses for peppermint essential oil is post number one in a series that I will be doing about essential oils. I love using essential oils in our home, and I use them in a very realistic way. If you’re interested in trying essential oils but think some of what you’ve read is just “too much” then this series will be for you! The series will be full of practical and realistic uses for essential oils, along with advice on which brands I recommend and safety tips.
