What’s All The Hype About Essential Oils? 

I had someone ask me recently “do essential oils work, or are they a scam?” 

I’m not a scientist or a doctor, so I can’t adequately explain all the science behind the oils, their bioavailability, the brain and body systems supported. But, I can share that they have worked for me and millions of other people. 

I always like to do the research myself when it comes to me and my loved ones health and wellness. So, I found books and online articles to help me make a decision. (Listed at the end) 

Plus, I used them! And found what worked for me.  

Curious about trying oils? The best way to get started using essential oils is grabbing Young Living’s Premium Starter Kit.

It comes with a diffuser (you choose which one), 11 of the most popular oils, a roller ball attachment, samples, and some handy literature. When you grab it with my link, it also comes with a access to our nurturing and helpful oily Facebook groups!

Here’s a little breakdown of each oil in the kit and one or two of the MANY things they do.

✔️Thieves: ever heard of that one?? A lot of people have. Best known for being the healthy-keeper. Every house NEEDS this one!

✔️Lavender: Do you struggle with sleep? Do you have kids that don’t sleep??  This is the swiss army knife of essential oils. It is great for relaxation, in sleepy cream, creating a calm environment for kids (and ME) and moisturizing skin!

✔️Lemon: So refreshing in a glass of water. Makes me drink more water which I know is good for me.  Naturally highlights hair, excellent for cleaning and makes people HAPPY!😁😁😁😁😁

✔️Copiaba: (CO-PIE-EE-BUH) – supports the body’s response to injury/irritation, regulates natural immune responses and promotes youthful appearance from the inside out. Has similar chemical properties to CBD oil!!! Hands down the most important oil in this bundle!

✔️Peppermint: Delicious and energizing in a morning smoothie. Incredible for supporting the digestive system, proper nasal and respiratory function and helping you feel more alert. Basically, everything.

✔️DiGize (DIE-JIZE): swallow a few drops in tea or a capsule before or after a meal to support the digestive system. Keeps nausea away, great for occasional irregularity and helping cranky tummies!

✔️Purification :Add a few drops on a cotton cloth or wool dryer balls for clean & fresh smelling clothes out of the dryer. Got stinky hockey gear, soccer cleats, dog smell, bathroom odors? Not anymore!

✔️RC :So good rubbed on the chest before exercise or at bedtime for respiratory system support.  We use alllllllllll winter long!

✔️Frankincense : Another MUST-HAVE powerful helper. It is Incredible for the skin and immune system, eases occasional and minor tension, uplifting for meditation and amazing rubbed on tired muscles.

✔️PanAway: Wonderful for knees, shoulders, low backs, necks, and even over the abdomen during that time of the month {ladies}.

✔️Stress Away:The name says it all! Diffuse at bedtime or breath from your hands when its been “one of those days.”  It’s heavenly in the diffuser, too!

We’re always having fun classes in person and online where you can get new ideas and inspiration about how to use oils on yourself, with your kids, spouses, babies, on pets, for cleaning and so much more.
