Spark Naturals and why I am SO Excited to be an Affiliate.

So if you read me regularly you know that i live on the crunchier end of the spectrum. I make my own skin products, my own household cleaners, and i turn to essential oils for most of my day to day needs. You may also know that i am a diagnosed sufferer of chronic depression, and generalized anxiety disorder. I have tried several medications to alleviate the symptoms that come with them, with mixed results, and have always felt that while they helped moderately, it wasn't the change i was hoping for. So about 6 months ago, i went searching for something to boost what i was already doing, and through the help of a friend, i found my way to essential oils, and Spark Naturals. I use their Zen, Bliss, and Dream blends on a daily basis and the change has been drastic. I am handling stress better, no longer dissolving into tears at the drop of a hat, and i am sleeping so much better than i can ever remember sleeping before in my life. I also use a blend of my own devising in the morning for a nice, natural pick me up so that i am not so reliant on caffeine as soon as i wake up; 3 drops of tangerine, 2 of lemon, and 2 of peppermint in the diffuser goes a long way toward starting the day off right.

I am a firm believer in sharing the things that make your life better. I love to learn, and i love to pass on the knowledge that i gain, so the decision to apply to be an affiliate for spark was a natural and exciting one for me. Even it helps just one person in my life, then it will have been a venture well made. Every week i will be making at least one post about what we are doing with essential oils, and our spark products around the house, as well as natural skin care recipes, and i hope that something jumps out at you and makes your daily life a little happier, and a little healthier. If you have any questions about Spark Naturals, their products, or essential oils, sound off in the comments, and as always, if you feel inclined to make a purchase, using the code "ashleydehaven" at checkout will save you 10% off of your entire order!
