August Young Living Gifts Plus College Kids Support

· ·

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 regular🥴??), 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!!

Xylitol Risks

· ·

I have been wary about large (and regular) consumption of xylitol for quite some time simply because it may cause gut dysbiosis (when consumed in larger quantities) and dysbiosis never did anybody any favors 😬.
This was an interesting find by Dr. Laura Koniver, and I find it especially relevant given the number of people who are walking around with clotting disorders (some who know, but the vast majority have no clue) now because of the cov💉d jab side effects. 
Never stop learning, connecting the dots, and discerningly applying what is learned. Also remember that moderation is key. Xylitol in toothpaste does help prevent cavities and it’s a small amount, but chewing on gum that is sweetened with xylitol all day long or drinking drinks regularly that are sweetened with xylitol probably isn’t a great long-term plan. I’ll be keeping an eye out for more info on this topic.

Motion Sickness Hacks

· ·

Do you have any vacay vomiters🤢 in your house thanks to motion sickness?

Travel plans can quickly take a nose dive when you or someone else is feeling queasy with motion sickness. Here are YL Pro tips to tame the upchuck.

* Peppermint: ALL the Peppermint! Inhale straight from the bottle, dilute and apply over the chest, throat, shoulders and back of the neck, diffuse in the car if possible.

* AromaEase: Dilute this blend and apply it over the abdomen, along the back of the neck ideally starting before the motion sickness hits.

* DIY Tummy Tamer Tumbler:

* Fill a large glass/tumbler with water and ice

* Add 1 drop DiGize Vitality, 2-3 drops Lemon Vitality

* Option to add 1 drop Peppermint Vitality

* Drink as tolerated, ideally start before the motion sickness gets too bad

* DIY Motion Tamer Roll-on:

* 10-20 drops each Peppermint, Ginger, Frankincense

* Carrier of choice

* Roll over the abdomen liberally and frequently

* Hydration with minerals/electrolytes: Try to start the trip super hydrated and maintain that as much as possible throughout. Add Mineral Essence and Lemon Vitality to your water, bring the Lavender Lemonade Vitality Drops with you on a plane, or even mix in AminoWise to a bottle of water.

Young Living’s June 2023 Freebies

· ·

Good morning friends and happy June and happy summer fun!
Here’s the scoop 🍦on the freebie gifts with purchase for June:
Valor! I don’t know a single person who doesn’t love Valor…. this is a great oil year-round, but let’s talk about tips for summer use. Valor‘s blend was inspired by an actual blend used by Roman soldiers before battle. Think about that…. are there new adventures this summer that maybe you’re both excited and fearful about? (who is sending a kiddo off to college soon, or a kiddo to camp for the first time?) Make two roller bottles for whoever needs a little extra “I can do this!”
Northern Lights Black Spruce: One of my favorite places is deep in the woods, ideally camping ⛺️ with no one else around but us and the wild critters. That doesn’t happen much anymore (#farmlife), but my brain still feels the happy place any time I drop an evergreen fragrance into my diffuser. This is an extremely grounding oil, and if you need to mentally step away from the chaos on occasion, fire up that diffuser and enjoy a little NLBS!
Super B: Does the end of the day end before your “to do list” does 🥴🥱? I’m loving that Young Living is including supplements in their freebie lineup! Take advantage of Super B….. it supports adrenal function in a healthy way, and you’ll likely notice you’re more efficient at actually getting stuff done without feeling quite so exhausted 💪. NOTE: not all B vitamins are created equally……so many of the drug store variety are simply not fully useable by the body. Super B is not that way….. you’ll feel the difference!
Who is going somewhere fun this summer or doing something fun this season? Let’s celebrate together! (I’m still recovering from a week on the road work to secure stronger medical freedom in Texas…. whew! That was an experience!….. in July, I’m headed to the Young Living Convention #YL30… it will be my 9th Convention, and then I will visit some of my family in Wyoming briefly afterward)

Benefits of Legs Up The Wall

· ·

It’s pretty safe to say that I suggest this technique at least a few times every week in my coaching calls. If I would add anything to this graphic, it’s this…. fill a sock with dry rice or beans and tie a knot in it. Use that lightweight weight over your eyes and forehead. It will add to the relaxation by quieting the prefrontal cortex (where much “chatter” happens in our minds). Bonus points…. add a few drops of Lavender, Vanilla, Peace &Calming, or whichever oil is speaking to you at the time.
Give it a try! 😉
