Support immune and gut health with NingXia Greens and energy levels, adrenal health, and liver with MultiGreens!
 
NINGXIA GREENS
Formulated with superfood ingredients, greens, and premium essential oils, NingXia Greens takes the guesswork out of your nutrition needs. All you have to do is scoop, stir, and enjoy!
KEY INGREDIENTS
* NingXia wolfberry fruit powder and sprouted leaves: Also known as goji berries, wolfberries come from an ancient plant, long praised in China for its powerful health benefits.
* Maitake, reishi, turkey tail, shiitake, and enokitake mushrooms: A source of soluble fiber known as beta glucans, these mushrooms help support a healthy immune system and help prevent and repair oxidative damage. These mushrooms are high in antioxidants, vitamins (including vitamin D), and minerals and have been studied for use in cardiovascular health, cancer prevention and reducing inflammation.
* Fermented Superfood Blend: A fermented superfood blend that delivers nutrients that are difficult to obtain from a typical diet, this proprietary combination also contains enzymes to support optimal digestion.

Purslane is also a uniquely rich source of 184 phytochemical compounds, including phenolic acids, alkaloids, and flavonoids, which act as antioxidants.
* Secale cereale flower pollen extract: A non-allergenic and sustainably sourced extract that contains full-spectrum nutrients such as amino acids, phytosterols, fatty acids, carotenoids, flavonoids, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes, this extract is clinically shown to display antioxidant and detoxifying capacity and maintain cellular oxidative stress through significant decrease of GSSG (oxidized glutathione).

MULTIGREENS

* Spirulina: a source of chlorophyll, antioxidants, and magnesium that protects against oxidative damage
* Choline: an essential micronutrient necessary for numerous bodily processes including nerve function, cholesterol processing, brain development, muscle mobility, and liver function
* Eleuthero root: an adaptogenic herb that soothes cortisol and boosts the body’s resistance to stress
* Alfalfa leaf: high in chlorophyll, calcium, iron, potassium, phosphorus, vitamins C and K
* Pacific Kelp: contains iodine vitamins, minerals and antioxidants – all of which are vital for a healthy thyroid and hormone balance and function

Young Living’s September Free Gifts

· ·

Kicking off September🏈 ya’ll! Can you believe we are already well into the second half of 2023? In addition to 🏈 football and 🍂falling leaves, Fall always brings an uptick of unwell days in households everywhere. Thankfully, WE HAVE TOOLS! 😉 Since you are here…. you have access to them, and this month some of the best wellness tools are FREE with qualifying purchase.
 
🏈Orange Vitality: Orange🍊 is such an amazingly charming secret weapon. Sure, it smells amazing, but pretty is as pretty does. It offers digestive support and immune support (among many other things. Don’t forget to check out the scientific research🤓 available on the Young Living website. A quick peek there on orange revealed 6 studies (there’s way more than that out there in Pubmed should you really want to dive deeply).
 
🏈Thieves Chest Rub: I’ll just say this….. It’s silly not to take advantage of this freebie right now, because when the 🦠hits the airways, you want ALL the tools handy right then right now. Thieves Chest Rub (on the chest, back, and/or bottoms of feet) is a massive game changer. You’ll pat yourself on the back for getting this freebie before you actually need it. 😘
 
🏈Nutmeg: Now, you might be thinking…. what can I use nutmeg for besides making some killer fall recipes? 🤔 Nutmeg supports cognitive 🧠and immune function. A lesser-known fact (we should all do a challenge and try using it this way for a month)…… nutmeg may be useful for people who tend to wake up too early😵‍💫 or in 🥴the middle of the night! 🤓I’m excited to try this for a month before bedtime and see if I notice a change in my own sleep patterns!
 
🏈Just like Thieves Chest Rub, when the proverbial poop hits the oscillator, you need tools on hand STAT. Raven is one you need on the bench to run in and play. It plays well with its teammates. There are some great study articles on the YL website (go look!). Here’s a peek at a few titles for the nerdly inclined like me 😁🤓
“Suppression of inflammatory and infection responses in lung macrophages….”
“Effect of eucalyptus oil inhalation on pain and inflammatory responses after total knee replacement: a randomized clinical trial”
 
🏈I might just be most excited about the FREE NingXia Greens as this month’s freebie. We’ve been drinking it regularly since it was introduced last year. (My favorite power drink is NingXia Greens + YL Inner Beauty Collagen + NingXia Red + Zyng 🤩 ). The NingXia Greens is a daily dose of 60+ fruits, vegetables, herbs, algae, and mushrooms. I challenge you to find a better way to get all that micronutrient-dense, digestive and immune-supportive help in a single supplement. This is a supplement that has been on my order every single month since it was introduced….. but not this month since we will be getting it for free 😉. (and that YL-branded glass is pretty cute too!)
 
Did you learn something new in this post about a product you thought you knew? What are you most interested in trying for the first time or using in a different way than you might have used in the past?
Happy Game Day! 🏈

August Young Living Freebies

· ·

When I was little, summer seemed to whiz by (and that was back when school started back around Labor Day week!)….. nowadays, it’s a blink and a nod, and kids (at least in our area) start back to school next week. Can you believe it? Happy August friends!
Here’s the scoop on the gift-with-purchase goodness to start the month off right!
Ginger vitality: I don’t recall seeing this one as a freebie before, and if it’s not one in your arsenal/wellness tool bag ⚒ , let’s chat for a sec. Ginger, first and foremost calms queasy stomachs….. A drop or two in hot water for Ginger tea……. sneak it into lunch boxes in the form of healthy gingersnap cookies (lots of recipes out there…. add a little extra oomph with a few drops of Ginger to the batter 😋. Fragrance-wise…. did you know that the aroma of ginger is historically known to promote feelings of courage? Makes sense, right?…. A queasy stomach often results from fretting about something (like a new school year situation)😉📚.
 
Lemon is great for 101 different things…. while it actually has stomach-calming properties too, it’s also a key ingredient to our “world famous 🤪” LLPC recipe…… if you struggle with seasonal sniffles and aren’t familiar with this favorite, ask a WiW old timer…. it’s the best for making things right! It’s also key in helping the lymphatic system function more optimally too. 😉.
 
Life 9: I can speak for hours on the benefits of a great probiotic’s effects on gut health. All probiotics are NOT created equally…… if you’ve never used Life 9 before, I challenge you to get it for free this month, and then take it daily for 30 days. In fact, I double-dog dare ya! See if you don’t feel the difference. Remember, good gut bacteria (as is your pooping ability) largely regulate your immune system. If you struggle with either of these (or heck, if you struggle with emotions that tend to upset the gut, oftentimes, getting a good gut balance, often straightens those things out too!)The best thing about free stuff is that you can try it for free and decide if it fits your healthy journey well. I’ll say this tho….. those of us who know Life9 intimately🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️ use it daily!
 
Plus, it comes with that cute little supplement case! 😍
 
Finally, MultiGreens! Is this a regular for you already? I tend to alternate between MultiGreens and NingXia Greens (love them both…. NRG is a powder and MG is a capsule and they are different products, but they are both VERY green 😁). So many people (big and little peeps alike) don’t get enough “greens” in their diet (Green M&M’s or green gummy worms don’t count….. in fact, that’s all the more reason to get the good greens into your day!) MultiGreens allows you to “get the greens in” and thereby helps your thyroid, nervous, and circulatory systems in ways your body may be telling you you’ve been missing them (are you reading your body’s clues?). Never tried it? This is another tool you’ll get to try for free!
 
Happy August friends! Which freebie are you most excited to get?

We’re wrapping up Young Living Convention 2023 in Salt Lake City! Other than a hacked credit card (mine 🙄😱🤬), it’s been a most excellent time spent with friends who are family (and each year as I meet and make new friends, my family just gets bigger and bigger🥰💖, just like yours will too!). I have hugged soooooo many necks (it’s been amazing seeing so many of you in person! My heart is very full. )
Here’s a recap of the new products, which have been for sale to Convention Ticket holders these last few days, and will be available to everyone tomorrow (Monday….. tho I’m not sure what time the actual release is. I’ll edit the post if I can find the information.)
Which product(s) are you most interested in? 🙂

Young Living’s July Gifts

· ·

Good morning friends! Happy 4th of July weekend! 🎆☀️It’s hard to believe that half of Summer is already over. YL brings us gifts with purchase products this month which focus on prepping kiddos for a great start to the school year. ( Never fear…..even if you don’t have kids, you’ll benefit from these products! 😁)
 
10 Bonus PV with a 100PV Loyalty Order. Man ‘o man, if you have been with YL for long enough to realize the massive health benefits (fewer trips to the doctor) ….. and economic benefits💰(ex: it’s more economical to buy Thieves household cleaner for ALL your cleaning needs …. use it to clean everything from cleaning your windows to washing your dog safely!…. than it is to buy the variety of toxic cleaners), then you’ve probably already joined the savvy consumer group that uses Loyalty Rewards (a subscription box program that allows you to choose what’s in your box each month.
Here’s a recap of LR: https://www.youngliving.com/us/en/learn/loyalty-rewards ) In a nutshell, Loyalty Rewards make YL shopping, even more, cost-effective than it already is!
 
Peace and Calming: This is a mom favorite for kiddos who may need a little help unwinding. Use in the diffuser at night, or on the bottoms of the feet or wrists. It is also a fantastic oil for helping combat anxiety and nervousness whether you are a kid or an adult (or a dog who might be nervous about fireworks).
Room Spritzer Bottle: a sweet bamboo-topped glass bottle to make your room spray (much healthier and cheaper than toxic commercial room sprays!). (To make a spray, add several drops of your essential oil of choice to about a tablespoonful of either witch hazel or vodka, and fill the rest of the bottle with filtered water).
 
Lavender Bath Bombs: a warm bath with one of these bombs is a terrific way to wind down at the end of the day (and another stealthy way to chill a child who may not be all that interested in bedtime 😉. If you find that this works for your kiddo, it’s super easy to take a handful of Epsom salts, add a few drops of lavender, peace and calming, or another calming oil directly onto the Epsom salts before putting in the bathwater (that way the oil will disperse throughout the water as opposed to sitting on top of the water)….. super economical!
 
Kidscents MightyVites Chewables: Kids can be picky when it comes to eating, and it doesn’t take long for them to be depleted of the micronutrients that are needed to be healthy💪 and have a sharp mind🧠. Not all vitamins are created equal; many contain synthetic dyes and fillers with neurotoxic activity (causing hyperactivity, ADHD, allergy symptoms, etc). MightyVites is a clean tasty absorbable vitamin that will give your kiddo what he/she needs without the unwanted junk. (These vits are also a great option for someone who doesn’t swallow pills well, including the elderly).
 
Enjoy your month and remember, Lavaderm (even a DIY lavender spritz works well) is fantastic for sunburns. It’s hot and crispy out there! And if you’d ever like some help trying to figure out what might be the best product fit for you or your family’s personal situation, please know you can always reach out to me or another YL educator, and we’ll be happy to help!
 
If you aren’t yet a member of the YL family, I’d love to help you find solutions to your needs. Contact me to arrange a complimentary consult!
xoxo
