About Useful Essential Oils

Hello and welcome! I’m Jasmine, the owner and voice behind Useful Essential Oils. I’m so happy you’re here, and I’d love to share a bit about myself and why I started this website.

My Story & Mission

My journey with essential oils began almost a decade ago. At the time, I was a young mom looking for natural remedies to keep my family healthy. One sleepless night with a fussy toddler (and an exhausted me!) led me to try a few drops of lavender oil in a diffuser. To my surprise, it worked like a charm – my little one calmed down and finally slept, and I was able to relax a bit too. That simple success sparked my curiosity and sent me down the wonderful rabbit hole of essential oils and holistic living.

Over the years, I found myself reaching for essential oils for just about everything: a drop of peppermint for a tension headache, tea tree for a pesky pimple, lemon oil in my homemade cleaners, and frankincense during my meditation sessions. Friends and family began asking me for advice like, “What’s good for stress?” or “How do I use oils for colds?” I realized that many people were curious about essential oils but didn’t know where to start or whom to trust.

That’s why I created Useful Essential Oils – to be the friendly, trustworthy guide I wished I had when I started. The name says it all: I focus on useful, practical uses of essential oils for everyday folks. My mission is to help families, busy moms, and anyone interested in natural remedies to safely and confidently use essential oils to improve their daily lives.

Who I Am

I’m not a big corporation or a multi-level marketing rep – I’m just a passionate individual who has seen the benefits of essential oils firsthand. To deepen my knowledge, I’ve taken courses in aromatherapy and spent countless hours reading research, attending workshops, and experimenting in my own home. While I don’t claim to know it all, I am constantly learning and updating my understanding as new information comes out. (Science is always evolving, especially in wellness!)

A bit more about me on a personal note: I am on this journey with my husband, two kids, and an ever-energetic dog who sometimes smells like eucalyptus (thanks to the natural flea repellent spray I use on her bedding!). When I’m not blending oils or writing blog posts, you can find me curled up with a good book, making crafts, and cooking new and interesting recipes! I truly believe in a balanced approach to health: I love modern medicine and science, but I also respect traditional remedies and the wisdom of nature. Essential oils, to me, represent the best of nature’s offerings. Thanks for coming along with me for the ride!
