New Year’s Aromatherapy Reset + January Wellness Goals
New Year’s Aromatherapy Reset + January Wellness Goals
The start of a new year is the perfect time to refresh your mind, body, and spirit. Aromatherapy can play a key role in helping you reset, offering natural support for relaxation, focus, and energy. Here’s how to create your own New Year’s Aromatherapy Reset and start the year feeling your best + my January Wellness Goals.
1. Declutter Your Space with Fresh Scents
A tidy environment sets the tone for a fresh start. Use purifying essential oils like lemon, tea tree, or eucalyptus in a diffuser to cleanse the air and uplift your space. Add a few drops to a DIY cleaning spray to refresh surfaces naturally.
DIY Dusting Spray with Essential Oils
Ingredients:
- 1 cup distilled water
- 1/4 cup white vinegar (cuts through grime and provides shine)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or fractionated coconut oil (helps attract and trap dust)
- 10 drops Lemon essential oil (cleansing and fresh scent)
- 5 drops Cedarwood essential oil (anti-fungal and wood-preserving properties)
- 5 drops Lavender essential oil (calming scent and gentle on surfaces)
Instructions:
- Combine all ingredients in a spray bottle (preferably glass).
- Shake well before each use to mix the oils and other ingredients.
- Spray onto a microfiber cloth or directly onto surfaces.
- Wipe down dusty areas to clean and polish.
2. Set Intentions with Grounding Blends
Kick off the year by setting intentions for personal growth and well-being. Grounding essential oils like frankincense, cedarwood, and sandalwood can help you center your thoughts. Blend these oils with a carrier oil to create a roll-on you can use during meditation or journaling sessions.

3. Boost Energy Levels Naturally
Winter can bring sluggishness, but energizing essential oils like peppermint, sweet orange, and rosemary can help you stay motivated. Diffuse these oils in the morning or add them to a DIY body lotion for an invigorating start to your day.
4. Relax and Recharge
The holidays can leave you feeling drained. Unwind with calming oils like lavender, chamomile, and ylang-ylang. Create a soothing bath soak by mixing these oils with Epsom salts, or make a pillow spray to encourage restful sleep.
5. Stay Consistent with Wellness Goals
Incorporate aromatherapy into your daily routine to stay on track with wellness goals. Whether it’s using a focus-enhancing blend during work hours or a relaxing blend after exercise, consistency is key.
my January wellness goals: (let me know yours in the comments!)
🌱 Clean Eating
Prioritizing real, Whole Foods. Food is medicine. No artificial dyes, seed oils etc.
🌍 Grounding Daily
Grounding every day is important. Since it’s winter and it’s hard to do it outside I have a grounding mat and a grounding sheet that’s on our bed both from grounding well.
💪 Rebounding Daily
My fitness trampoline is my secret weapon for lymphatic drainage, boosting circulation, and having fun while exercising! Just 5-10 minutes a day makes a difference.
💊 Supplements Daily
Consistency is key! I’m keeping my wellness on track with the right vitamins and minerals to fill any gaps in my nutrition.
🚶♀️ Walk Every Day
Rain, snow, or shine—getting my steps in helps clear my mind and keeps my body moving. Even 10 minutes makes a big impact!
🤸♀️ Pilates 2x Week
This is my go-to for strengthening my core, improving flexibility, and staying mindful with movement.
🏋️♀️ Weight Lifting 2x Week
Building strength, improving metabolism, and feeling strong in my body are all reasons I’m sticking with weights this year.
