“Although essential oils will never replace a minute of the 7 hours of sleep most adults really need for optimal health, essential oils can serve as a natural aid to stimulate energy, focus and vitality.” (Healthy Human)

A good night’s sleep or a healthy diet doesn’t guarantee you’ll always have energy, but it’s a state of mind too.

You know there are other inexpensive ways to take the essential oils with you, especially if you can’t use a diffuser or if you’re on the go.  You can get a small piece of cloth and add the oil to it, stick in your bag, or car.  And then there is also a pendant locket that has a felt pad that would go in the locket part, just put the oil you desire to take with you on the felt and go.
