    Oils A–Z: GX Assist® GI Cleansing Blend

    In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, the panel explored doTERRA's GX Assist®, a gastrointestinal cleansing formula designed to help balance microbial activity in the gut. Hosted by Aisha Harley, the conversation featured insights from Louise Rose, ND, Mica Carew, ND, LAc; Ariana Harley and Will Wan, LAc, who examined the formula from clinical, energetic, and traditional Chinese medicine perspectives. Dr. Louise explained the antimicrobial ingredients in GX Assist and how the formula can support digestive cleansing and microbial balance when used in short cycles. The panel also explored the energetic properties of the oils, with Dr. Mica describing the blend as protective and empowering, while Ariana highlighted its connection to emotional boundaries and clearing stagnant energy. The group discussed pulsing GX Assist protocols, including the practice of using it around the full moon, and emphasized the importance of supporting the microbiome afterward with probiotics. Panelists also shared personal experiences using GX Assist for digestive upset, travel support, Candida balance, and skin health. The episode concluded with reminders about the Month 3 Reset Program, upcoming educational calls, and new wellness offerings designed to support the next phase of the journey. 🌿 Key Takeaways Gut Cleansing & Microbial Balance GX Assist is designed to support microbial balance within the gastrointestinal tract. The formula contains essential oils with antimicrobial, antifungal, and digestive-supporting properties and may help address: • Candida overgrowth • Digestive discomfort • Microbial imbalances GX Assist is typically used in short cleansing cycles of up to 10 days.   Key Ingredients & Their Roles The GX Assist blend contains powerful essential oils including: Oregano & Thyme Strong antimicrobial support. Tea Tree & Peppermint "Harmonizing" oils that help balance stronger ingredients while supporting digestion. Lemongrass & supporting botanicals Help promote detoxification and overall gut balance. Together these ingredients help reduce unwanted microbes while supporting healthy digestive function. Usage Guidelines • Begin with 1 capsule and gradually increase as tolerated. • Can be taken up to three times daily during a short cleanse cycle. • Always follow with probiotics to replenish beneficial gut bacteria. • Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should avoid GX Assist. Pulsing Strategy & Full Moon Cleansing Some practitioners recommend pulsing GX Assist periodically rather than using it long-term. A common strategy is using the formula around the full moon, when parasites and microbes may be more active. Pulsing may help support the body's natural detox cycles while avoiding overuse.

    Mindset & The Reset: Creating Sustainable Change

    ⭐ The Emotional Reset: Releasing, Regulating & Restoring Balance In this episode of the Essential Wellness Podcast, we explore emotional wellness and how essential oils, breathwork, gentle movement, and mindset support emotional regulation throughout the reset process. Hosted by Aisha Harley, alongside Arin Fugate, Ariana Harley, and Asha McLaughlin, this conversation blends expert insights with guided practices designed to calm the nervous system, release stored emotions, and cultivate sustainable self-care routines. The session emphasizes gentle, balanced approaches to emotional cleansing and highlights the connection between physical sensations, emotional awareness, and healing.     🌿  Key Takeaways Emotional Wellness & the Reset Process Emotional wellness is a core component of the reset—not separate from physical cleansing. Gentle, supportive practices are more effective than extreme or forceful approaches. Balanced self-care helps regulate the nervous system during times of stress or change. Meditation & Breathwork Asha led a guided meditation focused on intention-setting and conscious breathing. Gentle breath practices support: Nervous system regulation Digestion Emotional safety and grounding Incorporating breathwork into daily routines can ease anxiety and improve sleep. Emotional Cleansing & Release Emotional cleansing involves bringing awareness to stored or repressed emotions. Physical discomfort (such as neck or shoulder tension) can signal unprocessed emotions. Journaling and breathwork help identify and release emotional patterns. The Hawaiian practice Ho'oponopono was introduced as a tool for emotional release: I'm sorry Please forgive me Thank you I love you Ho'oponopono may be directed toward oneself, others, or a higher power. Movement & Body Awareness Gentle movement supports emotional regulation and healing. Practices highlighted: Qigong Tai Chi Restorative yoga Mindful walking Simple movements demonstrated included shoulder rolls, neck stretches, and slow, intentional movement paired with breath. Returning awareness to the body can create an immediate calming effect. Mindful Eating & Grounding Mindful chewing (30–50 chews per bite) supports digestion and may reduce anxiety. Grounding practices include engaging the senses and focusing on physical awareness. Small, consistent practices are more sustainable than drastic lifestyle changes. Sleep & Self-Care Support Sleep support tools discussed: Breathwork Aromatherapy Creating a mental "safe space" for worries Positive reinforcement and incremental change help create long-term success. 🎧 About the Essential Wellness Podcast Your weekly drop for essential oils and everyday wellness.
