Quinquennial

 At 44 years old I have had some deep conversations with myself this past week. Much to my delight some answers have sneaked up and others took sometime to level my thinking of who I am and where I am going. Basically laying out my worth and adjusting my future endeavors. Setting reasonable goals. Financially we seem to be on the mend knocking out some debt one month at a time. That is a couples goal but personally I wanted to find the magic on the way forward. I woke up realizing I am going to be 45 and 5 years left to 50. I am currently studying Education which has been my life long dream. But what else. Plan for retirement, settle down by buying a house. Finding my worth in the workplace knowing that I can and must do what is rightfully my joy and passion and this is to train, teach and inspire. I find that all these things plus a bucket list has me soaring to plan the 5 years to the big 50. Can I do what is set out for me and fulfill my role in my life? Life has a strange way of opening one's eyes to the next chapter deeply embedded. My book needs to be published and my desire to sign my first autograph still exists. I also realized that others opinions of me never justify who I truly am. Maybe late but it has come at the right time. A late bloomer but the journey was well written and so my walk continues. I dream of the freedom.

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.
