Interesting Fact...

Interesting Fact....
Essential Oils are aromatic liquids. They are distilled from flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds of plants. The distillation process is what makes essential oils so concentrated. It often requires an entire plant or more to produce a single drop of distilled essential oil. For example, it takes thousands of flower petals to create the drops that are in a single bottle of rose oil, and adding just one drop of peppermint oil to a glass of water has approximately the same concentration as 20 bags of tea. The practice of using essential oils is commonly referred to as aromatherapy, and is used for physical and psychological well-being.
Essential Oils have a millennium-long history of use in healing and in religious ceremony throughout the ancient world. Some, particularly frankincense, are repeatedly cited in many Judeo-Christian and Muslim religious texts. Others, such as myrrh, lotus, and sandalwood oils were widely used in ancient Egyptian purification and embalming rituals. Still others, such as clove and lemon, were highly valued as antiseptics hundreds of years before the discovery of modern antiseptics. In ancient times, oils were respected for both medicinal and their healing properties.
Essential Oils are often referred to as "Mankind's First Medicine". In fact, there are over 200 references to aromatics, incense, and ointments throughout the Old and New Testaments of the Bible (36 of the 39 books of the Old Testament and 10 of the 27 books of the New Testament mention essential oils or the plants that produce them.)
Remember there are lots of essential oils out there claiming to be pure make sure to use only pure and natural products; referred to as therapeutic grade, like Young Living Essential Oils.

Introducing Thieves

Thieves is an amazing blend of highly antiviral, antibacterial and anti-infectious essential oils. This oil was created from research based on legends about a group of 15th century thieves who rubbed oils on themselves to avoid contracting the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead and dying. Studies conducted at Weber State University during 1997 demonstrated the killing power of these amazing oils (clove, lemon, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus, and rosemary) against airborne microorganisms. One analysis showed a 90 percent reduction in the number of gram positive Micrococcus luteus organisms after diffusing for 12 minutes. After 20 minutes of diffusing,the kill rate jumped to 99.3 percent. Another study against the gram negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed a kill rate of 99.96 percent after just 12 minutes of diffusion. I ABSOLUTELY love this oil it was my second purchase with Young Living along with the home diffuser. I apply to the girls feet before school or when we go out and about (especially in winter months during cold/flu season) I diffuse this oil in my home as an air freshener. This oil is also found in the Everyday Oils Kit that can be purchased with the Premium Start Kit or you can purchase the oil by itself.

Lavender is calming, relaxing , and balancing, both physically and emotionally.University of Miami researchers found that inhalation of lavender oil increased beta waves in the brain, suggesting heightened relaxation. It also reduced depression and improved cognitive performance. A 2001 Osaka Kyoiku University study found that lavender reduced mental stress and increased alertness.

We stayed in hotel not too long ago and it was a smoking room (all that was available when we went to Augusta for the Masters). I have two children that have never been around cigarettes and the smell. I was concerned their sinus/allergies would be all messed up by the time we got back home. Luckily I packed my oils and diffuser. We mixed Purification and Thieves and pretty much ran the diffuser consistently during our stay. What a difference it made!!! This blend is also part of the Everyday Oils Kit!

It was well known during the time of Christ for its anointing and healing powers and was one of the gifts to Christ at his Birth."used to treat every conceivable ill known to man."

My Starter Kit

Well after our Lavender experience came fall time and what else comes besides changing weather??!! Oh cold season... The girls and I had gotten sick and of course momma always gets the worse end of everything! I had spoke to my Young Living friend, she had checked in on our use with the Lavender and making sure we received results...Of course I was hacking away and explained how we don't get sick that often but when we do it really kicks our butts! Her response"You need some Thieves"! Thieves... What is Thieves???

Thieves is a highly antibacterial, antiviral, antiseptic, and anti-infectious essential oils of Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus, and Rosemary. It was created from research based on legends about a group of 15th Century thieves who rubbed oils on themselves to avoid contacting the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead and dying. When apprehended , the thieves were forced to tell what their secret was and disclosed the formula of the herbs, spices, and oils they used to protect themselves in exchanged for more lenient punishment.

Studies conducted at Weber State University (Ogden, UT) during 1997 demonstrated the killing power of these amazing oils against airborne microorganisms. One analysis showed a 90 percent reduction in the number of gram positive Micrococcus lutes organisms after diffusing for 12 minutes. After 20 minutes of diffusing, the kill rate jumped to 99.3 percent. Another study against the gram negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed a kill rate of 99.96 percent after just 12 minutes of diffusion.

This is what I ordered and when I became a Wholesale Member of Young Living

How I was Introduced to Young Living Essential Oils

To start off.... My oldest daughter will be 5 in 2 weeks! Ever since she was an infant each year around spring and fall season her right eye would start building up with tears and run down her face. When she was younger it wasn't horrible but as she got older it got worse. We always just thought it was some kind of allergy and always treated her with Amoxilcillin if the tearing lasted too long and that seemed to knock the "allergy".
Well it was last year in the fall starting around September it started up again. Went to the doctor was told to try this and to try that (eye drops) if this doesn't work time to see a pediatric ophthalmologist. We knew she had a blocked tear duct by this time and I had already searched for natural remedies to treat a blocked tear duct but nothing seemed worth trying. We went to the ophthalmologist and was told she has an obstruction in her tear duct so lets try more eye drops and if these don't work we will need to do surgery. It would be my call!
Great let me make this decision for this little girl! She has two eyes, she will have a scar, and I've been through surgery myself and it's scary stuff! I prayed and prayed about this. One morning I woke up, both girls slept in so I had some time to do some searching again. Low and behold what popped up. It was like my prayers had been answered.
Lavender Oil to unblock a tear duct... Hmm... ok... let's try this!
I have a friend of my husbands in Missouri and I knew she did something with oils but she had never tried to sell me anything. I had seen a lot of FB post and she was more on a natural level. I sent her a message and she happened to be busy that day so she didn't get right back to me. I loaded everyone up did my errands for the way and stopped in to the local vitamin store. She had a brand of Lavender Oil so I bought it. By the time I had got back home she had responded. Come to find out her granddaughter had the same issue and they used lavender oil as well and it worked for them. I told her what I had purchased "the opposing" brand. She was ok told me to use it and see what happens. I did and NOTHING happened! It seemed to make her eye worse so I had kind of given up on that oil. Within that week my friend had called to check on us see how it's going. I explained it seemed to make it worse. She asked me to please order her Young Living Lavender. I think I had invested in almost $100 in oil in one week! Oh well what the heck I've spent more on doctors visits and medications and surgery would have been way more than that! I received Young Living Lavender in the mail and started using it. Within a day I saw a dramatic change! Her eye had almost been clear all day. Now when her eye starts to look a little watery we grab the Lavender and start applying around her eye and down the bridge of her nose.From that point on we make sure we have Lavender stocked at home! Now at that time I still didn't see any need to have a bunch of oils. I thought I only had a use and need for Lavender. And this my friends is what started it all!!!!

Young Living Essential Oils

What are Essential Oils?? 
Essential oils are the highly concentrated, volatile, aromatic essences of plants. Essential oils contain hundreds of organic constituents, including hormones, vitamins and other natural elements that work on many levels. They are 75 to 100 times more concentrated than the oils in dried herbs. There are several different types of oils on the market. There are significant differences between synthetic fragrance oils and pure essential oils. Synthetic fragrance oils may duplicate the smell of the pure botanical, but the complex chemical components of each essential oil created in nature determine its true aromatic benefits. Synthetic fragrance oils do not have medicinal properties; they are NOT suitable for aromatherapy. Some synthetic oils can cause you to get a headache or I have heard many say they think they stink. Pure essential oils are most commonly extracted from plants through the process of steam distillation. In this process, steam is introduced into a distillation chamber which contains the plant material. The steam breaks down the plant tissue, causing it to release its essential oil in a vaporized form. The vaporized essences, along with the steam and other substances, pass into a pipe through cooling tanks. The vapors return to liquid form and are separated from the water and captured as pure essential plant oil. Expression, also known as cold pressing, is done exclusively with citrus oils. In this method, the oil-containing outer layer of the fruit is pressed and filtered to yield pure essential oil.
