My Top 5 Motherhood Oils for Fall: Oshawa Motherhood Studio Photography
Welcome to September! Kids are back to school and as we get adjusted to new routines this week ( or settle into old ones) with it brings a lot of mental and physical exhaustion. And of course germs and sickness. Being a parent is hard enough, but when your little one/s or family goes down for the count it all falls on mom right? Germs are everywhere and a part of our lives, but there are things you can do to help keep your families immune systems strong.
I’ve put together a list of my top 5 oils for motherhood that will help keep you and your family healthy. While still keeping your sanity too.
Here’s my top 5 motherhood oils…your Easy Button!
In order from left to right:
Thieves-this will be your game changer to keeping the family healthy. And when sickness hits, your recovery time will be drastically cut down. Thieves kills 99.96% of all airborne germs. Diffuse, wear topically or make Thieves, Lemon and honey tea when onset of sickness starts. Thieves is a hot oil so use with carrier oil on little ones on soles of feet or spine.
R.C- (respiratory care) amazing for sinus congestion, cough, allergies, asthma, sleep and lung infections. I also use this for my workouts. Keeps the airways open ;) Diffuse or wear topically.
Lavender- one I don’t go without. YL’s lavender is not your grandma’s lavender lol. It’s so so good. I use this daily for sleep, managing stress when I need some calm/grounding. It’s also in my mom’s wellness kit. Scrapes, bites, burns, use in your skincare regimen and so much more. Use topically on pulse points or drop into hand and inhale. Diffuse and transform your space to have more Zen/Spa like vibes.
Stressaway- Yeo the name says it all. It’s your vacation in a bottle :) Used for reducing stress and keeping emotions where they should be. That goes for ALL ages. Can be used topically or diffused. Added to skin, hair. body products or worn as perfume.
Progessence- Hormones and emotions, time of the month and overall balance. Every mama needs this magical oil. Low Progesterone is so common in women ( including myself) Progessence is made with wild yam and is a natural alternative to synthetic hormone replacement. It also helps relieve PMS and all symptoms around your period too.
You pour every ounce of your being into your family mama. I am SO proud of you!
Just look at the GORGEOUS tiny human you have raised!

Congratulations on your baby! I’d bet it’s safe to say that it’s been such a crazy last 9 months that have left you exhausted but so in love. I’d also say that your hormones are doing a number on you right now too. Hot, cold, irritable, anxious, weepy…ugh they suck at times ;)
Do you know that the most common and typical hormone imbalance in women is low progesterone? I actually suffer from this and I had NO idea until I wanted to have children. There are number of things that affect progesterone levels. Environmental toxins like chemicals in home cleaners, pesticides in food, birth control, prescriptions and stress. Rest assured…there are ways to help naturally.
Natural progesterone can work wonders to help keep the body balanced and happy. Progesterone is often prescribed in a synthetic form, but a better option that I have found and been using is from wild yams and infused essential oils. Enter Progessence Photo Plus! It’s a game changer for my emotions, moods and overall happy balance.
Women NEED progesterone all the way through menopause and beyond. It’s what keeps us from having too much estrogen. That’s a good thing!
Wild yams are said to help normalize blood sugar levels, combat weight gain and hair loss. It helps reduce reoccurrence of hormonal headaches, and promotes restful sleep.
Progessence is a powerhouse and has received so many testimonials on relief from monthly cycles, hormonal acne, support for PCOS, fertility and so much more. The easiest way to apply is to start with 2-4 drops to the stomach, feet, inner thigh or forearm daily.
If you are struggling with your hormones at whatever stage in life you are at, look into Progessence. It’s helped so many women including myself ;)
There are a few others that help too. Endoflex, Clary Sage and of course Ningxia Red. Feel free to do some research on these too!
