In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, Aisha Harley and essential oil expert Erin Fugate broke down the three foundational ways to use essential oils—aromatically, topically, and internally. They explained how each method works, when to use it, and shared practical safety tips to help listeners confidently incorporate essential oils into their daily wellness routines.

The discussion covered the emotional benefits of aromatic use, the effectiveness of topical application, and the unique advantages of internal use with doTERRA's Certified Pure Tested Grade® (CPTG®) oils. The episode also emphasized proper dilution, patch testing, and using high-quality oils safely for the whole family.

Essential oils can be used in three primary ways:

• Aromatically – Inhale directly or diffuse to support mood, emotions, and air quality.

• Topically – Apply to the skin for targeted support and overall wellness.

• Internally – Use select doTERRA oils to support digestion, immunity, and healthy flavoring when directed.

Each method offers unique benefits depending on your wellness goals.

Diffusing or inhaling essential oils can help:

• Promote calm and relaxation

• Boost energy and focus

• Support emotional well-being

• Freshen indoor air

• Reduce airborne microbes and pet odors

Different oils provide different emotional benefits, such as lavender for calming and citrus oils for uplifting energy.

Applying oils to the skin may help support:

• Muscle and joint comfort

• Minor cuts and bug bites

• Healthy-looking skin

• Massage and relaxation

• Whole-body wellness through rapid absorption

Proper dilution with carrier oils helps improve comfort and effectiveness.

Diluting essential oils is especially important for:

• Children

• Sensitive skin

• Daily use

• Larger application areas

Carrier oils such as Fractionated Coconut Oil, Sensitive Skin Oil, and Castor Oil can help reduce skin sensitivity while improving absorption.

doTERRA's Touch Line offers convenient pre-diluted roller bottles for easy everyday use.

The hosts emphasized several important safety practices:

• Perform a patch test before first use.

• Avoid contact with eyes and other sensitive areas.

• Use proper dilution guidelines.

• Follow label directions for internal use.

• Take extra care when using oils with children, during pregnancy, while nursing, or around pets.

• Choose only high-quality, Certified Pure Tested Grade® essential oils.

Remember: more isn't always better—small amounts are often all that's needed.

Essential oils can easily support everyday wellness by helping with:

• Morning energy and focus

• Digestive support

• Emotional balance

• Minor discomforts

• Better sleep and relaxation

Starting with simple routines builds confidence and helps you discover what works best for your needs.

Stay tuned for more practical wellness education, expert tips, and simple ways to confidently use essential oils every day.

In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, Aisha Harley welcomed experienced networkers Dianne Del Reyes, Claudine Annis, and Arin Fugate to share practical strategies for growing a doTERRA business through authentic relationships and meaningful community connections.

Rather than focusing on selling, the conversation emphasized serving others, building trust, and creating long-term partnerships. The hosts shared proven networking habits, tips for finding the right networking groups, and simple follow-up strategies that naturally lead to referrals, collaborations, and lasting business growth.

The episode reminds listeners that successful networking isn't about collecting business cards—it's about creating genuine relationships that benefit everyone involved.

The most successful networking starts with genuine curiosity.

Instead of pitching products:

• Ask thoughtful questions.

• Learn about the other person's business.

• Look for ways to support them first.

• Build trust before discussing products.

People are far more likely to buy from someone they know, like, and trust.

Rather than joining multiple groups, Claudine recommends committing to one networking community and attending consistently.

Consistency helps you:

• Build credibility.

• Develop stronger relationships.

• Become a familiar face.

• Generate better referral opportunities over time.

Look for businesses that naturally complement essential oils.

Examples include:

• Nutritionists and health coaches

• High-end cookware consultants

• Luxury bedding and sleep specialists

• Wellness practitioners

• Beauty and self-care professionals

Collaborative events create value for everyone while introducing new audiences to doTERRA.

Networking works best when paired with a simple, consistent system.

Arin recommends:

• Attend one networking event each month.

• Schedule two one-to-one meetings every week.

• Host regular wellness classes or consultations.

• Stay active on Facebook and maintain a professional online presence.

The goal is to nurture relationships—not rush the sale.

The panel discussed common concerns, including:

• Meeting competitors.

• Speaking with medical professionals.

• Feeling introverted or uncomfortable networking.

Their advice:

• Be authentic.

• Focus on common interests.

• Serve rather than compete.

• Remember that confidence grows through consistent practice.

Every new relationship has the potential to introduce you to an entirely new network of people.

By leading with service, curiosity, and generosity, you create opportunities that extend far beyond immediate sales.

Stay tuned for more practical business-building strategies, wellness education, and simple ways to confidently share doTERRA with your community.

Joined by Will Wan, Dr. Louise Rose, Dr. Mika Carew, and Arianna Harley, the discussion uncovered the blend's physical, emotional, energetic, and Traditional Chinese Medicine benefits.

The panel explained how Shinrin Yoku combines powerful botanicals including citrus oils, patchouli, magnolia leaf, Siberian fir, cardamom, cypress, lavandin, and geranium to support nervous system regulation, emotional grounding, and overall wellness. They also explored the science behind forest bathing and shared practical ways to incorporate the blend into daily routines for greater calm, presence, and resilience.

🌿 Key Takeaways
What is Shinrin Yoku?

Shinrin Yoku translates to "forest bathing"—the Japanese practice of immersing yourself in nature using all five senses.
The essential oil blend was designed to capture the benefits of this practice and bring elements of nature into everyday life.

Benefits include:
Increased mindfulness and presence
Reduced stress and anxiety
Greater emotional balance
Enhanced connection to nature
Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective

Will Wan explained how the blend's ingredients work as powerful harmonizers and qi regulators.
The oils help support:
Healthy digestion
Energy flow throughout the body
Emotional balance
Reduction of stagnation
Overall vitality and resilience

The combination of citrus, woods, and botanicals creates a balanced formula that supports both movement and grounding.

The Science Behind Forest Bathing

Dr. Louise shared research demonstrating the benefits of forest bathing practices, including:
Reduced cortisol (stress hormone) levels
Lower blood pressure
Improved heart rate variability
Enhanced immune function
Better mood and mental clarity

While the blend can support these benefits, it is best used as a complement to spending actual time in nature whenever possible.

Supporting the Nervous System
Arianna discussed how engaging all five senses during forest bathing can help regulate the nervous system and reduce feelings of overwhelm.

Shinrin Yoku may support:

Stress reduction
Mental clarity
Emotional regulation
Grounding during busy seasons of life
Improved focus and presence
Energetic & Emotional Applications

Dr. Mika demonstrated energetic practices using Shinrin Yoku, including chakra-clearing techniques and mindfulness exercises.

The blend can be especially helpful during:

Major life transitions
Periods of uncertainty
Decision-making processes
Emotional overwhelm
Times when grounding and stability are needed
Simple Ways to Use Shinrin Yoku

Popular applications shared during the episode include:

Diffusing throughout the day
Applying to palms and inhaling deeply

In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, Aisha Harley welcomed certified aromatherapist and holistic health coach PJ Hanks for an in-depth yet approachable discussion on the science behind essential oils. PJ explained how essential oils work at a cellular level through specific targets, pathways, and biological mechanisms, helping listeners better understand why these plant compounds can have such profound effects on health and wellness.

The conversation explored the importance of oil quality, absorption methods, synergy between compounds, and the unique benefits of oils like Frankincense, Lavender, Copaiba, and Rose. PJ also shared practical application tips and dosing recommendations to help listeners maximize the benefits of their oils.

🌿 Key Takeaways

Essential Oils Are More Than Just Aroma

Essential oils contain biologically active compounds that interact with the body's natural systems.

These compounds work by:

Influencing cellular receptors

Triggering signaling pathways

Supporting natural biological processes

Affecting multiple body systems simultaneously

PJ emphasized that essential oils are complex plant chemistries—not simply fragrances.

Quality Matters

The effectiveness of essential oils depends heavily on purity and consistency.

PJ explained that doTERRA's testing standards have expanded significantly over the years, using extensive quality control measures to ensure oils maintain their natural chemistry and therapeutic properties.

Maintaining the integrity of the plant compounds allows oils to work as nature intended.

How Essential Oils Enter the Body

The discussion covered three primary ways oils affect the body:

Aromatic Application

Inhaled through the respiratory system

Directly influences the limbic system and brain

Topical Application

Absorbed through the skin

Supports local tissues and systemic wellness

Internal Use

Provides access to multiple biological pathways

Supports whole-body wellness when used appropriately

PJ noted that absorption rates increase significantly when oils are diluted, massaged into the skin, and covered after application.

The Power of Synergy

One of the most important concepts discussed was synergy.

Essential oils contain dozens—or even hundreds—of natural compounds that work together.

This means:

Multiple compounds target different pathways

Effects are broader than isolated ingredients

The whole oil often performs better than a single extracted compound

This synergy helps explain why essential oils can support multiple wellness goals simultaneously

Frankincense: A Multi-System Wellness Oil

PJ highlighted Frankincense as an excellent example of a complex oil that supports multiple body systems.

Potential areas of support include:

Cellular health

Inflammation response

Tissue and skin support

Emotional balance

Stress resilience

The discussion also explored combining Frankincense essential oil with Frankincense Boswellic Acid supplements for a more comprehensive wellness approach.

Lavender Supports Calming Pathways

Lavender was used as an example of how essential oil chemistry influences specific pathways.

Its compounds can support:

Relaxation

Restful sleep

Emotional balance

Nervous system regulation

PJ explained that lavender works through pathways involving GABA and serotonin activity, helping promote a sense of calm and wellbeing.

Maximizing Absorption & Results

PJ shared several practical tips for getting better results from oils:

Massage oils into the skin after application

Cover treated areas when appropriate

Use oils consistently

Combine complementary oils for enhanced benefits

Pair internal and topical applications when suitable

Simple application changes can dramatically improve effectiveness.

Frankincense Dosing Recommendations

For Frankincense Boswellic Acid supplements, PJ recommended:

1 capsule daily for general wellness support

2 capsules daily for stronger inflammatory support

Pairing with Turmeric for enhanced benefits

She also suggested occasional sublingual use of Frankincense oil for additional cellular support.

Spotlight on Rose Oil

The episode concluded with a discussion about Rose oil and its unique wellness properties.

PJ encouraged listeners to take advantage of the month's promotion featuring a free Rose Touch product with qualifying orders, highlighting Rose's emotional, aromatic, and self-care benefits.

🔜 Coming Up Next

Next week, the Essential Wellness team will continue exploring practical wellness education and essential oil applications, helping listeners confidently use oils through both science and experience.

In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, Aisha Harley and Arin Fugate explored the art of hosting women's circles as a way to create authentic community, share essential oils naturally, and foster meaningful connection. Through personal stories and practical guidance, they shared how simple gatherings in living rooms, parks, and backyards can evolve into powerful spaces for healing, learning, and relationship-building.

The conversation highlighted how doTERRA businesses often grow organically through real-life experiences and education rather than sales tactics. From grounding rituals and sharing prompts to themed oil gatherings and community storytelling, this episode offered listeners an approachable way to begin creating circles of connection in their own communities.

Women's Circles Create Safe & Meaningful Connection

Arin shared how her weekly gatherings naturally evolved into supportive women's circles where participants could openly share experiences while learning about essential oils.

The goal of these gatherings is to create:

A safe, welcoming atmosphere

Connection and trust

Emotional support and shared experiences

Space for wellness education in a natural way

The hosts emphasized that people are craving authentic connection now more than ever.

Essential Oils Naturally Support Community Gatherings

The discussion explored how oils can help create grounding, relaxation, and emotional openness during circles.

Diffusing calming oils during gatherings

Using grounding oils before sharing

Creating abundance sprays or custom blends together

Incorporating meditation and breathwork with oils

Wild Orange

Cinnamon

Lavender

Frankincense

The focus was on helping people experience oils firsthand rather than overwhelming them with information.

Keep Gatherings Simple & Duplicatable

Aisha and Arin emphasized that women's circles do not need to be elaborate.

Backyard gatherings

Tea circles

Picnic-style meetups

Living room wellness chats

DIY classes and oil blending activities

Start with a few friends, shared snacks, and a simple intention.

Consistency matters more than perfection.

Storytelling Builds Trust & Engagement

Dianne shared how storytelling became more impactful than formal presentations.

Instead of relying heavily on slides or structured teaching:

Share personal experiences

Talk about transformations

Invite others to share their own stories

The hosts noted that emotional connection creates lasting relationships and naturally sparks interest in oils and wellness tools.

Arin shared several techniques for creating safe and flowing gatherings:

Helpful practices included:

Keeping circles around 2 hours

Using a talking stick or sharing object

Beginning with grounding rituals

Incorporating meditation or breathwork

Setting gentle boundaries for sharing

One recommended sharing format:

"Blossom, Bud & Thorn"

Blossom → What's going well

Bud → What's emerging or growing

Thorn → Current challenge or struggle

This simple structure helps participants feel seen and supported.

Community Creates Organic Business Growth

The hosts shared how many successful doTERRA businesses began through authentic gatherings and relationship-building.

Aisha reflected on hosting a simple chapstick-making class that unexpectedly led to a significant enrollment and long-term business growth.

The episode reinforced that:

People join communities before they buy products

Education through experience creates loyal customers

Sharing oils can feel natural and service-driven

• Provides more targeted, effective results at smaller doses

Recommended Dosage

In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, the panel explored doTERRA's GX Assist®, a gastrointestinal cleansing formula designed to help balance microbial activity in the gut. Hosted by Aisha Harley, the conversation featured insights from Louise Rose, ND, Mica Carew, ND, LAc; Ariana Harley and Will Wan, LAc, who examined the formula from clinical, energetic, and traditional Chinese medicine perspectives.

Dr. Louise explained the antimicrobial ingredients in GX Assist and how the formula can support digestive cleansing and microbial balance when used in short cycles. The panel also explored the energetic properties of the oils, with Dr. Mica describing the blend as protective and empowering, while Ariana highlighted its connection to emotional boundaries and clearing stagnant energy.

The group discussed pulsing GX Assist protocols, including the practice of using it around the full moon, and emphasized the importance of supporting the microbiome afterward with probiotics. Panelists also shared personal experiences using GX Assist for digestive upset, travel support, Candida balance, and skin health.

The episode concluded with reminders about the Month 3 Reset Program, upcoming educational calls, and new wellness offerings designed to support the next phase of the journey.

GX Assist is designed to support microbial balance within the gastrointestinal tract.

The formula contains essential oils with antimicrobial, antifungal, and digestive-supporting properties and may help address:

• Candida overgrowth

• Digestive discomfort

• Microbial imbalances

GX Assist is typically used in short cleansing cycles of up to 10 days.

The GX Assist blend contains powerful essential oils including:

Oregano & Thyme

Strong antimicrobial support.

Tea Tree & Peppermint

"Harmonizing" oils that help balance stronger ingredients while supporting digestion.

Lemongrass & supporting botanicals

Help promote detoxification and overall gut balance.

Together these ingredients help reduce unwanted microbes while supporting healthy digestive function.

• Begin with 1 capsule and gradually increase as tolerated.

• Can be taken up to three times daily during a short cleanse cycle.

• Always follow with probiotics to replenish beneficial gut bacteria.

• Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should avoid GX Assist.

Some practitioners recommend pulsing GX Assist periodically rather than using it long-term.

A common strategy is using the formula around the full moon, when parasites and microbes may be more active.

Pulsing may help support the body's natural detox cycles while avoiding overuse.

The panel discussed the blend's energetic qualities, noting that GX Assist may support:

• stronger personal boundaries

• clearing stagnant emotional energy

• feelings of protection and empowerment

It was also described as supportive for calming the nervous system while building resilience.

GX Assist may be helpful for:

• digestive upset after questionable food

• travel-related stomach issues

• Candida and microbial imbalance

• skin issues such as acne connected to gut health

• short-term gut cleansing protocols

Gut health plays a foundational role in overall wellness.

Strategic cleansing—followed by proper microbiome support—can help restore balance while supporting physical, emotional, and energetic wellbeing.

• Gentle movement supports emotional regulation and healing.

• Practices highlighted:

• Qigong

• Tai Chi

• Restorative yoga

• Mindful walking

• Simple movements demonstrated included shoulder rolls, neck stretches, and slow, intentional movement paired with breath.

Hosted by Aisha Harley, this episode brings together Dr. Louise Rose, Dr. Mica Carew, Will Wan, LAc, and Ariana Harley for a multidimensional conversation on detoxification—physical, emotional, and energetic.

Together, the panel explores how RevitaZen® supports the body's natural detox pathways in a gentler, more approachable way than traditional cleanses. Designed for sustainable transformation, RevitaZen® offers support without overwhelm—inviting listeners to reset with intention, curiosity, and compassion.

• Referred to as the "poor man's rose" for its heart-centered emotional qualities

This week on the Essential Wellness Podcast, our community gathered for the official kickoff call of the 90-Day Wellness Reset Program, hosted by Aisha Harley and guided by Dr. Josie Schmidt and Dr. Louise Rose.

This foundational call set the tone for the next three months, introducing a gentle, sustainable approach to detoxification and whole-body wellness. Unlike short-term cleanses, this reset is designed to work with the body—supporting natural detox pathways through preparation, nourishment, and intentional daily practices.

Participants were encouraged to approach the journey with curiosity, patience, and an open mind as they begin this transformational reset together.

• The 90-Day Reset officially begins January 19th

• The program is divided into three intentional phases:

• Prepare

• Cleanse

• Reset

• Each phase lasts approximately 30 days, allowing the body time to adapt and respond gently

• Dr. Josie emphasized avoiding aggressive detox methods in favor of a supportive, sustainable approach

• Weekly calls, ongoing education, and community support are built into the program to help integrate wellness into everyday life

Dr. Louise Rose—naturopathic physician, chef, and spa-based wellness expert—explained the differences between:

• Short-term cleanses

• Detox protocols

• Long-term reset programs

She compared the body to a symphony, where modern stressors and toxins can throw systems out of tune.

Common signs of imbalance include:

• Fatigue

• Brain fog

• Joint pain

• Digestive issues

The reset focuses on regulation and balance, not deprivation or extremes.

Dr. Rose introduced the concept of toxic burden, describing how toxins accumulate like water filling a bucket.

Sources of toxic load include:

• Environmental toxins

• Metabolic waste

• Endogenous toxins produced within the body

The body eliminates toxins through multiple systems:

• Liver

• Kidneys

• Lymphatic system

• Bowels

• Skin

• Lungs

Month One of the program focuses on building vitality, as detoxification requires energy and proper nutritional support.

• Hydration was emphasized as foundational to detox and digestion

• Participants were encouraged to:

• Eat mindfully

• Support digestion before detoxing

• Reduce exposure to toxins in household and personal care products

• Tracking progress with pre- and post-lifestyle assessments helps personalize the reset experience and measure results

Dr. Josie introduced RevitaZen®, formulated to support liver health and detoxification.

RevitaZen® features:

• Milk thistle in a phospholipid co-crystal formation for enhanced bioavailability

• A synergistic blend designed to support the body's natural cleansing pathways

Additional product support discussed:

• Citrus oils to support liver detox pathways

• Turmeric and Deep Blue® Polyphenol Complex for inflammation support

The program emphasizes a systems-based approach, rather than relying on single ingredients.

Aisha shared her personal results from the program, including a significant reduction in biological age.

Participants discussed the importance of:

• Community accountability

• Consistent daily habits

• Viewing the reset as a lifestyle, not a one-time event

Mindset tools such as affirmations, visualization, and curiosity were encouraged—especially during moments of discomfort or resistance.

• Month 1, 2, and 3 bundles are available with special promotions

• Dr. Rose offers individual telehealth consults:

• $95 for a 45-minute session

• Participants are encouraged to:

• Use available resources

• Ask questions

• Lean into the collective support of the group

The call closed with encouragement to trust the process and allow the body time to recalibrate and heal.
