The Vet, The Charmer, and Lana Banana

This morning, I dropped off my beloved Lana at the vet with my husband, and while we were rushing out the door, I couldn’t help but notice how much rapport the head vet seemed to build with me. Maybe it’s just his way of doing things, or perhaps it was the fact that we paid the bill in full, but there was something rather charming about this gentleman. He had a polite, almost suave way about him, and his humor definitely caught me off guard. It was one of those moments where you think, wow, this guy knows how to make you feel at ease.

I handed Lana over into his capable hands, feeling confident she’d be well cared for, and off we went. But when I returned to pick up Lana, I found myself crossing paths with him again. There he was, just as polite, just as funny—his demeanor unchanged. He greeted me with a smile that I could practically hear through his mask, and he had this gentle way of making me feel like I mattered, even in a brief exchange. It almost felt like he was drawing me in with his energy, which, I’ll admit, was a little strange but undeniably magnetic.

I greeted Lana, calling her “Banana” as I always do, and she looked so good. But what caught me off guard was the vet—he looked at me with a knowing smile. He kept staring for just a moment longer than I expected, as though he remembered me, or maybe he just knew how to make a connection with people. I’m not sure, but there was definitely something there.

Did he treat everyone that way? Maybe. But connections and energy speak volumes to me, and there was something about this interaction that stood out.

Would I take Lana back to that vet? I’m not sure. It might not be me, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he called my number again. There was a certain familiarity there, like he already knew me, or at least, he made me feel like he did.

For now, though, Lana Banana is home. And that’s what’s giving me those Friday feelings. Thanks to such a great vet team, she’s healthy, happy, and back in my arms. And that’s all that really matters.

Love,

My soul in Furry form🥰😍

  My Pitador, my heart, my soul in furry form. Life has been dealing us a tough hand lately — we’ve been losing a lot. But I hold onto this truth: we  will  win. I know it in my bones. You had a rough start, a beginning no one should have to endure, but I promise you — things are going to turn around. I can take the hits life throws at  me , but not at you. You deserve everything good this world has to offer. I make this promise to you, Lana: I will fight harder. I will work faster. I will do more. All so you can have the happiness and peace you deserve. You’ll never know the full weight of the battles I’ve faced — but that doesn’t matter. Because we’re going to rise. Together. Love Mom

Oils over Pills - Lana Essential Promise

Most people today reach for a pill when they have muscle pain or a headache. It's quick, it numbs the discomfort, and—let’s be honest—it can give a certain kind of high. That fast relief becomes addictive in its own way, leading many down a cycle of temporary fixes. But what if we paused and looked at healing from a different angle? Holistic healing doesn’t always offer the instant gratification we’ve come to expect, but it brings something deeper: long-term wellness without filling your body with synthetic chemicals. Sure, some essential oil blends can work quickly—headaches included—but the real power is in the overall healing they promote. It’s pure, intentional, and supports the body rather than masking the symptoms. Here’s what I’ve learned: using natural remedies takes effort. It’s a lifestyle choice. But simple things help, like keeping your oil blend where you need it most. Leave it near your skincare station, your bedside, or by the couch where you rest your feet. I keep m...

One year on...

  Can you believe it’s already been a year since Lana Essential Oils was just a dream in the making? Back then, we had a different name, smaller batches, and an overwhelming to-do list while juggling a full-time job. And Lana — our beautiful inspiration — wasn’t even a part of our lives yet. What a journey it's been. Over the past year, I’ve learned so much more than how to craft essential oil blends. I’ve learned to  honour my heart , to trust soulful connections, to gently release what doesn’t resonate, and to keep pushing forward — even when the road gets rough. Starting this wellness cart has been more than just a business move — it's been a turning point. A transformation. A deep affirmation that living your most authentic journey is not only possible, but necessary. To our customers: your warmth and sincerity mean the world. I feel privileged. I feel blessed. And I feel ready for what’s to come. 💫 Thank you for being part of this journey.
