February Gifts From 2025 Young Living

Liz James · February 1, 2025 ·

Happy February friends! February 1st finds me at a Faith and Medicine conference in Georgia, and it is a fascinating, beautiful, and educational experience…… many of the speakers are MD’s with profound stories and wisdom they have shared. As a Christian, I know that the ultimate source of Joy in my heart and Peace and Calming in my soul and Inner Beauty come from Jesus alone.
But I also know these things too…. even when we lean in to Jesus, we still have to “do the things” here on earth to help our body cope with what it does and doesn’t have in order to function properly…. sometimes it needs a little assist in the neurotransmitter dept, and in others, we need help in the physical (what we can see). All this to say, YL stands in the gap for us, and this month’s gifts with purchase reflect (from my perspective), some of the gifts we also get freely by leaning into Jesusβ€οΈπŸ™!
Joy
Peace and Calming
Inner Beauty (which glows outwardlyπŸ˜‰β€οΈ)
What a month of beautiful reminders!

Beating Illness Before It Beats You: How to Recover Fast with Natural Remedies

Liz James · January 29, 2025 ·

Yesterday was not a good day. By 5pm, I could tell that I had been hit with something bad. By 7pm, I had fever and chills and I ached all over… especially my head.
Tomorrow, I’m headed out of town for a conference in Georgia with Kim, and meeting Ellen once we get there. We are representing BBHB, and I’ve got no time for being sick.
It’s situations like this that underscore the importance of having all the things ready to go. If you don’t have it handy, it’s probably gonna be too late by the time you get it. Often a horrible awful extended time of illness can be avoided by hitting it hard as soon as you know something is amiss.
These were my big hitters over the last 24hrs. Inner Defense, Iver, Engystol (a homeopathic), and Thieves (and a long session of infrared therapy and prayer!).
I’m about 90% better this afternoon, and should be fired up and ready to go by tomorrow morning. Thank goodness!!! I know people who’ve had this nonsense for a couple of weeks. Acting quickly, I was able to kick it to the curb in 24hrs! πŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ
Do you have your toolbox ready to go for unplanned health issues?

When You Can’t Carry a Horse or Puppy: The Magic of Smell Memories

Liz James · January 15, 2025 ·

“Smell memories”….. it’s such an important part of our lives (and one of the many reasons our oils are so important in helping mediate stress (both acute and chronic) and trauma related memories.
I will forever be calmed by the up close smell of a horse.
I will forever smile every time I have the luxury of inhaling the sweet smell of puppy breath.
(Do you see a trend here in my life πŸ˜‚πŸ’–?)
But I can’t always rely on a horse or a puppy to make themselves available to me when I need them πŸ€—.
About 11 years ago, I started using StressAway on the regular. While it now also serves the purpose of being a “smell memory” which brings comfort and calm, it also activates several other pieces of my brain to work in tandem with that smell memory.
Yesterday was a stressful day. It was also a long day surrounded by other people who were also feeling the stress. I was preoccupied with all the going’s on…. so much so, that I forgot to put my trusty StressAway on. Late in the afternoon, I smelled it on a nearby friend who had whipped hers out and put it on. I could literally feel my shoulders soften and neck relax within minutes.
Smell memories are so important. My friend became a walking diffuser for me in that moment!
What odors bring peace to you?
What oils have you come to rely on if you can’t “fit that horse or puppy” into your pocket?

Young Living’s January 2025 Gifts

Liz James · January 2, 2025 ·

Happy, blessed and beautiful 2025 friends! πŸ₯³
Are you putting a plan in to place for 2025 to see your goals, dreams, and visions bear fruit? I’d love to see / hear what those are so we can cheer each other on! (Everyone needs a cheering squad to help them cross the finish line πŸ™πŸ’–). Comment below so we can help each other out. I will leave one of my goals in the comments below too.
Young Living is offering us 3 tools for free if your goals include moving your body more, improving your gut health (which is a crucial cornerstone to total body health πŸ€“ ), or feathering your nest with happiness.
Deep Relief….. regardless if you’ve been a gym rat for years, or you are stepping into a gym for the first time in your life, this oil blend is a great companion! (It’s also great for those times when you’ve spent way too much time in front of a computer and need a little neck/ shoulder relief πŸ₯Ή)
Grapefruit….. such a versatile oil, and one of my favorites! Not only is it a scientifically proven “happy” oil, it also has some really interesting effects on the lymphatic system ( one of the reasons it’s part of YL’s Cel-lite magic massage oil πŸ˜‰).
Life 9…… unless you are purposeful about eating fermented foods every single day (as people used to do in every culture around the world), everyone needs to prime their digestive system daily with a good probiotic. Why?
βœ… support daily elimination πŸ’©
βœ… support a healthy immune system
βœ… support healthy mood and neurotransmitter production
βœ… support healthy excess estrogen metabolism
βœ… beneficially modulates stress response
βœ… and about 100 more things, but I know you want to get on with your day! πŸ˜‚
Happy New Year 2025! 🌞

Tis The Season For Peace

Liz James · December 19, 2024 ·

Tis the season to (maybe) feel a little more stressed than normal as demands for your time increase, and you start feeling like “Grandma got run over by a reindeer” while “the Grinch was trying to steal your Christmas”. πŸ˜₯😬 Don’t forget that you have several great tools at your fingertips! πŸ™Œ
My “go to” oil is Stress Away. 🌿❀️
What’s one thing you use or do to keep your cortisol from making your Christmas season feel more like “peace in earth” amidst the hustle and bustle?
