Essential Oils

September 2024 Young Living Extras

Liz James · September 2, 2024 ·

September.
It’s one of the month’s of change that we can expect every year without fail.
Kids go back to school ðŸ‘Ķ👧 At some point in the month, those of us in the south will catch a break with cooler crisper morning temperatures, and Autumn 🍂 is officially ushered in, and you can even smell a change in the air!
I love Young Living’s gifts with purchase picks for us this month!
I mean, who doesn’t love Vanilla ?? (and frankly, I can’t believe it’s free with a 100PV (Loyalty Rewards) order… it’s $34.50 to purchase). Vanilla is known for making everything smell amazing, and like all of our YL essential oils, it has health benefits too, not the least of which is helping create a calming relaxing environment. I did a quick pubmed.gov search to see what studies I could find about vanilla, and there were some interesting finds there (go do a deep dive if you are curious! ðŸĪ“). One of those studies suggested that smelling vanilla at night helps with sleep, and may actually also reduce the frequency of urination at night. This is a top complaint for many people over the age of 50, so it may be worthy of doing your own “at home” study to see if it works for you if this is something that is a problem for you.
Cinnamon Bark… do you use it? And if so, how? This is a staple for “Fall is in the air” diffuser blends. Don’t leave it there tho….. cinnamon bark isn’t just another pretty scent, it has many health benefits (one of the reasons it’s a key ingredient in Thieves). Again, I encourage you (even if you scientific words aren’t your jam) to let your fingers do the walking in pubmed.gov. Look up “cinnamomum zeylanicum” and see what I saw 👀ðŸ˜ēðŸĪ“. In less than 2 minutes, I found that our YL (true) cinnamon bark oil has potent activity on no less than 15 different health concerns. Remember that Cinnamon Bark oil is a “hot” oil, so you’ll always want to use/dilute heavily with a carrier oil if you choose to use topically….. and that diffusing is extremely effective in helping people around you be healthy without them even knowing it! ðŸĪŠ It’s also a key ingredient in the entire Thieves Household Cleaner line….. I mean, if you aren’t using THHC as your main cleaning supply, you’re missing a VIP way to keep your immune system supported and your house clean! (I don’t know of another household cleaner that actually improves your health while you use it! )
Immupro is one of my monthly faves, though I’ve been experimenting (and loving!) the new YL Deep Night Essence for sleep. Both products enhance my sleep (I tend to be a VERY light sleeper. I have no trouble going to sleep or going back to sleep if I get up, but I do tend to be easily awakened by light and any noise). Both Immupro and Deep Night Essence have proven to be helpful to me in that regard. One of the extra benefits of Immupro is that it helps with sleep AND it is immune system supportive. Immupro has zinc and selenium (important factors in immune system function), along with a bit of melatonin, orange essential oil, wolfberries and other ingredients. With the advent of the Fall season comes a need to be especially mindful of keeping a healthy strong immune system, because well…. we all know that Fall also usually signals “the sugar season” which drops everyone’s immune system when indulged. (Fall also signals that time of year when other “things” tend to trigger a drop in health…. IYKYK. Remember, God gave us a body that has the capacity to take care of itself when given the right tools: exercise, healthy whole foods, proper stress management, hydration, a great circle of friends/community, etc!)
Happy Sunday friends! xoxo ~ liz
( If you are not yet improving your health using YL products, I’d love to help you find your own unique healthy way to improve your health! )

Cozy Fall Vibes from Young Living

Liz James · August 14, 2024 ·

Around about this time of year, I get sneakyðŸĪŠ and start diffusing Autumn scents🍂🍁 in an effort to trick my body into thinking it’s not 103 degrees outside. A tiny part of me secretly hopes that diffusing the crazy good Fall spice blends will coax Autumn into existence. (I know…. it’s early…. especially in Texas…. but a girl can dream! 🙃 ) .

Leave the endocrine disruptors☠ïļ behind this Fall and scent your home naturally! ( If you’d like to learn more about how this actually works, let’s talk about it!)

Cozy Fall Vibe Fall Bundle is a limited engagement / while supplies last thing, and a great opportunity to reset your home in a healthy, clean immune supportive way! https://bit.ly/FallVibes24

Wellness Tool

Liz James · August 12, 2024 ·

One of the wisest things you can do for your own health and wellness journey is to create a library of reference books and resources. Googling doesn’t always end well, and googling itself has been whittled down to a handful of culled resources by “the powers that be” (everyone should be using search engines like Brave for more comprehensive search options). Pubmed.gov searches are good too, tho not always the easiest to decipher if you aren’t used to reading research papers, AND you have to be very careful when reading as to who funded each study #fundingusuallyplaysabigpartintheoutcomeofthestudy.
The Essential Oil Desk Reference (10th Edition) is here! If you do not have this (or another edition), you’re missing out on a valuable toolðŸĪ“.

Nasal Spray for Seasonal Support

Liz James · August 2, 2024 ·

Spending a little time this morning making those ever so popular nasal sprays (’tis the season….. year round😉).
A way better alternative to shooting a biologically toxic substance up your nose to an area within millimeters of brain matter.
Toxin free in the “little things” makes a big difference in the long term. (And extremely affordable…. less than $7 a bottle to make yourself).

August Young Living Gifts Plus College Kids Support

Liz James · August 1, 2024 ·

August is here, and so is Back To School! Whether you have littles heading to school for the first time, or young adults heading off to college (who doesn’t need the survival tools to energize, relax, focus, and stay well with all of the things life hits all of us with on the regularðŸĨī??), start ’em off right with all the right tools!
Gifts with purchase this month are perfect for helping the littles (ahem, everyone) step into the stressors of a new situation with grace, ease, and a good night’s sleep.
SleepyIze is a great option to help relax and prepare the body for bedtime. Add a little foot rub with this amazing oil to your kiddo’s bedtime routine. Not only is this a good time to talk to them about their day, it’s also a way that you both receive the benefits of SleepyIze. Gentle enough for littles… it’s also effective on biggies too 😉.
KidPower (I know several adults who have said this is in their “top favorites” category) is a fantastic-smelling tool for the school year. Stepping into new and uncharted territory can be the source of doubt, fear, and worry. There’s solid science behind the oils in this blend….. KidPower doesn’t just smell AMAZING….. amazing is as amazing does! It’s designed to support feelings of emotional balance. Try it on yourself too….. it may just become a family favorite!
Does every bedroom have a diffuser? Sleep is arguably the most important part of our 24-hour day whether you’re big or little. Without a good night’s sleep, daytime activities can get pretty overwhelming pretty quick! Feather the Owl is a fun diffuser for the littles. Load it with sleepy oils at night, focus oils for homework, and calming oils when the chaos needs some help! (I have two baby showers coming up and will be giving diffusers as gifts. This freebie helps me out in that department!)
*************************************************
Don’t forget your college kiddos! As you plan your needs this month, if you’ve got young adults heading off to college, send them off with the right tools for success!
Have a great day friends and Happy August!!
xoxo~ liz
