Peace and Calming essential oil uses

Peace and calming essential oil, how to use this oil to bring a fresh and relaxing spa feel to your home. 9 ways to use the Peace and Calming Blend.

Peace and calming, just those two words make me feel relaxed thinking of them.

I personally think all of us are searching for a way to relax and unwind. Not just for ourselves but for our family too.

If you are like me, you've been running non stop all day and so has your family. 

You want to come home to an environment that allows you to kick your shoes off and slow down.

When I first started essential oils I wanted to use them because I wanted my house to smell fresh, light, airy. You know kind of like a spa.

I was searching for a way to turn my upside-down house into a cozy home.

Don't get me wrong I love that my kids run wild and free and that my house is usually a buzz of energy and fun.

But when it's time to flip that switch into rest and downtime mode.

I needed help, like lots of it.

So when I started essential oils my first task was finding an oil or two that could give me that relaxing spa feel. 

I wanted to just drop a couple of drops of oil in a diffuser and click the button to turn it on.

Y'all I need easy, and this is easy and quick.

and by using Young Living's Peace and Calming essential oil, that comes in the Young Living Premium Starter Kit along with 11 other oils and a diffuser, it works to create the scene of peace and calm in my house. 

And Y'all my house smells amazing!

Benefits of using Peace and Calming

Peace and calming is most loved for its benefit of creating a sense of relaxation.

Seriously, I dare you to diffuse this oil and not feel relaxed. I honestly don’t think it’s possible.

As a momma, it’s calming aroma is one reason I use it around bedtime for my kids. My girls go from overactive, mommas you will know that last wind kids always seem to find, to relaxed and peaceful.

Where do you put peace and calming oil?

I love to topically apply Peace and Calming and wear it as a perfume on days when I know it’s going to be stressful and I want to help support my emotions. 

I admit it, sometimes this momma needs extra emotional support and this is a great go-to oil for me.

On those days, I like to apply peace and calming to my wrist and to my feet along with a drop or two of carrier oil. I also love to apply it to my Diffuser necklace or my diffuser bracelet if I’m wearing one. I always get the nicest compliments.

You can also make an easy to apply Essential Oil Perfume Roller with Peace and Calming and another one of my favorite kit oils Citrus Fresh. 

Here is a momma tip**** When I apply it around nap time and I’m rocking my youngest, I get the bonus of watching her slow down and relax as she smells this gentle scent. Knocks her out every time and relaxes me too!

This is super important- 
Safety note- Per the Young Living website “Avoid direct sunlight or UV rays for up to 12 hours after applying the product.”
This is because some of the oils in this blend can cause a Photosensitivity. Photosensitivity can cause a sunburn.
Tip- On days I know I’m going to be outside a ton and want to use this oil I will diffuse it or I will apply it to a piece of diffuser jewelry.

Is Peace and Calming safe for kids?

I love diffusing this in my home with my girls running around. It's totally safe to diffuse around kids and pets. 

Peace and calming when applied topically should be used with a carrier oil like grapeseed. Applying it with a carrier oil is typically safe for use with kids over 2 yrs old.

I would just use caution if your child is going to be outdoors in sunlight.

For my girls, I will apply it to their feet with several drops of carrier oil like grapeseed.

 

Is peace and calming safe for babies?

I personally would not topically apply this blend to a baby. But that is my take. I tend to be a little more on the cautious side.

My hang up is the citrus oils in this blend and a baby’s skin is so delicate. I would hate for a citrus blend to irritate my baby’s skin.

But I love diffusing this oil in small amounts around babies and small children.

1-2 drops in a full diffuser is all you need. Just keep the door open to a hallway for fresh air if you are diffusing in a nursery. Diffuse for 10-15 minutes.

 

Can you put peace and calming in a bath?

 

This oil makes for the most amazing bath experience.

Add 4–5 drops to 1 cup of Epsom salt for a calming evening bath. (for a kids bath I would use 1-2 drop max.) Or
Add it to Young Living Bath & Shower Gel Base for a cleanser your entire family will love.

 

How to store Peace and Calming Essential Oil

Essential Oils over time can oxidize from exposure to light and air.

Because Peace and Calming contains a blue oil, which oxidizes faster than other oils, you will want to be a little more careful with your Peace and Calming. This way it retains its amazing benefits for as long as possible.

  1. Store in a dark bottle, this includes roller bottles you might use it in.
  2. Keep in a cool dry place.

 

How to diffuse Peace and Calming

If I’m just diffusing Peace and Calming as a single blend in my diffuser I like to put 4-5 drops of oil in my diffuser and diffuse intermittently for 10-15 mins. And I will do this a couple of times a day.

Why not diffuse until the diffuser just runs out?

Truthfully, you can do that, but I like to space it out so I can enjoy the benefits of Peace and Calming for a long amount of time. Remember those little essential oil particles are going to linger and make your home smell amazing for a few hours so why not space it out so you can have that amazing smell all day long instead of a few hours.

Beginner Essential Oil users- if you are new to this oil, I suggest for the first few times to diffuse 1-2 drops at a time for 10-15 minutes to see how you react to this oil.
