Hey there! š
Ā
Ā
Letās talk about rituals. Not the fancy, candlelit kind (although⦠mood š), but the daily ones that ground us, energize us, and keep our nervous system from going haywire. Iām talking about small, intentional things we can doāconsistentlyāto feel human again in the middle of deadlines, group chats, and random aches that show up uninvited (lower back pain, Iām looking at you). š«£
Ā
Essential oils have quietly become part of my rhythm. And because Iām a sucker for research and reading the most random things at 2am on PubMed. š Iāve found the perfect way to build a daily wellness ritual using šOleia Blended Topical Oilsš. Letās break it down by time of day, so you can do this with me.

āļø MORNING: WAKE UP YOUR SENSES
Ā
You know those mornings when your bodyās up but your soulās still in REM sleep? Thatās when I reach for šOleia Peppermint Oilš. Just a few drops on my palms, rubbed together, and a deep inhaleāI feel like I finally have the will to open Excel.
Ā
Peppermint oil has been shown to boost alertness and even improve memory and reaction time. Researchers have linked menthol (the key active compound) to increased cognitive performance. Translation: You might actually remember where you put your keys. š
Ā
Pair it with a quick stretch, a daily affirmation and off we go!
Ā
Ā
š MIDDAY: STRESS CHECKPOINT
Ā
Somewhere between meetings and accidentally doomscrolling, stress creeps in. Enter šOleia Tangerine/Jasmine Oilš®āaka the scents that energize.
Ā
Tangerine is the bright, citrus wakeup we all need at that 2 PM slump. Studies show citrus oils like it can boost dopamine levels, improve mood, and reduce that sneaky, stress-induced inflammation we pretend isnāt happening.
Ā
Jasmine, on the other handāsoft, floralāand suddenly, youāre grounded and glowing. Research even shows that jasmine can soothe anxiety and boost alertness at the same time. A multitasker, just like you need to be to finish everything by the end of the day. š«£
Ā
A drop or two on your wrists or a quick inhale from your palms can be all it takes to keep the meltdown at bay. Or at least delay it until after dinner. Lol jk. š
Ā
Ā
š EVENING: THE DECOMPRESSION ZONE
Ā
Now that weāve made it to the finish lineādishes done, emails closed, Kinder fed and sleepy, itās time to wind down.
Ā
š¼Oleia Chamomile Oilš¼ goes on my chest post-shower. If my legs are feeling a little sore (you know, from taking that one flight stairs like a responsible adult), Iāll reach for āØļøOleia Warm Mint OilāØļø. Sometimes I use both. It really depends on what my bodyās asking for.
Ā
Chamomile essential oil is known for its calming and anti-inflammatory effects. It helps lower cortisol levels and supported better sleep when used before bed.
Ā
Light a candle. Put your phone on airplane mode. Stretch a little, write a few thoughts down, or just sit quietly. Let your evening slow downāgently.
Ā
Ā
š BEDTIME: STILLNESS AND SKINCARE
Ā
One last step before we clock out. šŖ»Oleia Lavender OilšŖ» on your temples for that never-releasing pressure. A few drops, inhale, hold, and let your body exhale fullyālike itās finally allowed to rest. Lavenderās gentle scent has long been used to quiet the mind and invite sleep. Thereās actual research behind it too: lower heart rate, easier breath, better sleep.
Ā
If your skin craves a little love, mix a drop of š¹Oleia Bulgarian Rose Oilš¹ with your evening moisturizer. Itās subtle, comfortingāand that glow the next day will start it right.
Diffuse your favorite Bea Oleia Pure Oil. Or dab some of it on your pillow.
Ā
Ā
Weāve made it through another day.
Ā
Ā
Show me your bottle and Iāll show you mine? āTil next time! Sweet Dreams! š“
