You all know how I use doTERRA oils with my clients in sessions, but I bet you didn’t know that I also use them daily around my home. This article is about using doTERRA oils to help your laundry smell amazing. Give up the chemically laden laundry sheets full of toxicity and give this a try!
Fabric softeners come in all different shapes and sizes, and have scents that range anywhere from “Tropical Breeze” to “Lavender.” Did you know that most lavender-scented fabric softeners actually contains no lavender—only chemicals that have been blended to give you an impression that you are smelling the real deal? Substituting these chemically-driven fabric softeners for an all-natural, toxic-free alternative is much easier and more affordable than you might think.
Felted wool dryer balls can easily be scented with doTERRA essential oils leaving your fabrics fragrant and soft..and more importantly… chemical free!
What You Need:

This works to shift the mood by using the sense of smell to alter the neurotransmitters in the brain and cause a lift in mood affect.
