Homeschooling with Essential Oils

Homeschooling with Essential Oils

Thinking of homeschooling?  It’s on the minds of many families these days.  Maybe it’s the direction you’ve been called to, or possibly the current times have led you to making that choice for your family.  Whatever the reason, having the right kind of support and tools will go a long way in creating an environment where learning can happen, and children can grow.  




Can Essential Oils Help with Homeschooling?

Essential oils can be a vital part of your game plan to make your homeschool a happy one.  We all know how amazing they work for the body, mind, and emotions, all of which come into play during the school day, for both you and your student.  And not only that, if your student is in high school, you might consider creating a course on essential oils, for which they can receive credit!  That’s science, baby!!

So, if you find yourself in that special season of homeschooling, be blessed.  As one who now looks back on it all, that time to invest and bond and grow with my children was a gift I cherish.  Truly.  Look into the eyes of that child, and marvel, because you are beholding a sacred trust from the LORD.
