A new year is upon us and we trust that everyone is writing resolutions and committing to try new things. With a year like 2020, we’re sure everyone is going to be glad to be out with the old and in with the new and so we want to encourage you to try something new in your oil routine this year! 

If you are anything like us, you got started with essential oils by grabbing a Young Living Premium Starter Kit and you’ve been sticking to using just the oils in that kit. Sound familiar? There’s no shame in that! We did the exact same thing! The oils included in the starter kit are some of our most used oils and there is nothing wrong with sticking to what you know! 

But what if we told you there was a whole brave new world of other essential oil singles and blends to explore? Would you be willing to give them a try? Let’s get you thinking outside of the box in 2021 and trying a few of our favorites outside of the kit! Are you up for the challenge? We were sure to pick ones that inspire a spirit of peace and calm because let’s be honest, who couldn’t use more of that in 2021?

Northern Lights Black Spruce

Northern Lights Black Spruce essential oil comes from Young Living’s new Northern Lights farm in British Columbia, Canada. This rich, woodsy, and invigorating scent is perfect to use during meditation to help you create a fresh, calming atmosphere. While it’s complex scent would leave you to believe it is comprised of a blend of essential oils, it simply only contains the oils from a Northern Light’s Black Spruce leaf. You are not going to want to find yourself without this oil in the new year, trust us! 

White Angelica

White Angelica is unlike any other essential oil we’ve ever tried! It’s delicious blend of Geranium, Ylang Ylang, and Rose provide a sweet, floral note; while the Bergamot and Melissa offer a boost of citrus; and the Myrrh, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Hyssop, and Sacred Sandalwood balance the blend with a warm, woodsy base. Seriously, it’s the most amazing combination of essential oils and it’s about to become your favorite of 2021! You can create a positive atmosphere with this inspiring blend while being left with feelings of security and optimism. Um, why weren’t we bathing in this stuff this year?! We also love it for its skin-beautifying elements and believe it belongs in everyone’s morning skincare routine! Add a few drops to your moisturizing lotion and thank us later! 

Joy

Joy essential oil is a blend of Young Living’s most alluring oils that has been formulated to invite a sense of romance and warmth. Well, okay, we can get down with that in the new year, right? With Ylang Ylang, Geranium, Jasmine, Palmarosa, and Rose essential oil, Joy oil has a fresh, floral aroma with notes of citrus from the essential oils of Bergamot, Lemon, and Tangerine. We love using Joy in the diffuser or applying it topically for a nice floral perfume! If you find it to be too floral for your tastes, be sure to add in a few drops of Orange Essential Oil and experience the most delicious scent of your life! 

Sacred Mountain

Sacred Mountain is a blend of Ylang Ylang, Black Spruce, Balsam Canada, and Cedarwood essential oils that promote a sense of peace and calm found in nature. We love the feeling of strength, grounding, and protection it provides when diffused and we love to use it topically as a perfume. Sacred Mountain is sure to become your power oil in 2021!

Copaiba

Copaiba is known for its gentle, woodsy aroma, as it is steam distilled from the gum resin tapped from the Brazilian Copaifera Reticulata tree. It helps to create a relaxing atmosphere when diffused or applied topically and we love using it in our evening skincare routine. Add a few drops to your favorite moisturizer and enjoy the uplifting calm it brings!

With hundreds of blend and single options provided by Young Living, we could talk about all of the new oils to try for hours! These are simply five of our must-have favorites outside of the Premium Starters Kit and we trust they will be the perfect addition to all of your new year goals and resolutions.
