[Everything doTERRA] Cleaning with Oils- For those who have Allergies

Probably one of my favorite things about using Essential Oils is
cleaning. I have a lot of allergies to chemicals, plants, foods,
weather, etc. My reactions range from throwing up to hives to
difficulty breathing. Cleaning has been aweful. I do not enjoy it and
I avoid it at all cost. Needless to say my house is not the cleaniest
place. To try to be a better wife I decided to try natural products to
use for cleaning. The "all natural" cleaning products still got my
allergies going so I switched to vinegar and baking soda. These things
work alright, but we began noticing our clothes smelled like mildew
and our home was smelling musty. One of our biggest challenges has
been getting our dishes clean using our dishwasher.

When I got my first order of EOs I immediately made an all purpose
cleaner with lemon using the recipe from the book. I LOVE it! It makes
our home smell sooo good and it looks and FEELS clean. I also used the
carpet cleaner recipe and our carpet is starting to soften up and look
cleaner, plus it smells good.

For laundry I put 4 to 10 drops of Lavendar in the wash. You can also
do this with the dryer, but I like it in the washer.

I started putting lemon oil in with the dishwasher and am in awe by
the results. My dishes come out clean and spot free. It even makes our
house smell yummy, a built in diffuser :) The other day I ran out of
lemon oil and just washed the dishes like usual. I should have just
done them by hand. I was soo frustrated. I then decided to go through
the oils I do have and see which one would work for cleaning the
dishes. I decided to go with on-guard. I'm not a fan of the smell, but
it cleaned our dishes better then the lemon! The only thing it didn't
do was keep them spot free, so I think when I get more lemon I'll just
add it to my spot free section of the dishwasher.

I am so excited to create more cleaning products. I probably spend
more time learning about using the oils for cleaning than I do
anything else.

I LOVE cleaning now! Seriously. Its freakin fun AND I don't break out
in hives, throw up, need my inhaler, or have to lay down after
cleaning. Infact I actually feel like I have more energy and could go
for hours.

Totally loving doTerra Oils!
