Help…How Do I Know What To Use?

· ·

Everyone is built and wired differently.We each have our own physical and emotional baggage that we add to on a regular basis, and that makes us all very unique. The therapeutic grade oils and supplements that are exclusive to Young Living’s product line are unmatched for whatever body system or emotional support you need.

I have a few answers for that…
​

  • Let me help! With my unique background as a pharmacist, certified Health Coach, and holistic lifestyle specialist I can help you find your way.  Please feel free to use me as a resource to find the oils and supplements that will support your health & wellness goals for your entire family. Our lifestyles are also unique. Although, as a fellow prepper, we should have some similarities, including becoming adequately preparedfor what is UNIQUELY important to you and your family’s health. 
  • One of the great things about Young Living’s starter kits is that they include a variety incredibly versatile oils that will go a long way towards supporting virtually every body system. There is no better way to start adding to your health & wellness preparedness plan.
  • As a prepper, it is not just about gathering tools and supplies… it is also about learning to use (and even master) a new skill that will help you when the SHTF….all the tools in the world will be useless you are equipped to use them beforehand.
  • Remember, when purchasing a premium starter kit, I will also gift you a 400+ page Bug Out Bag ready manual to help you with your education and mastery. And of course, I am here to help you along the way :).

Can Oils Support Our Emotional Health?

· ·

Using essential oils is not a new found fad… it is something that has been used for thousands of years in most countries to help balance emotions. When Big Pharma entered into the picture, oils fell by the wayside in the United States. Young Living was and is key to reversing that trend, and you see inferior oils in many stores now. Do not be fooled by the others….. Young Living is THE world leader of Essential Oils… the oldest essential oil company in the world…. AND the only with with its own farms and  Seed to Seal guarantee.

​Survival tools should be multifunctional, and YL oils are no exception to this rule. Every single one of them has health promoting abilities and many have powerful emotional support.

Can you imagine how the spritz of fragrance from a fresh orange peel can brighten your day? Within the oil of the peel lies a constituent called Limonene.  This is a naturally made chemical that works almost magically on our Limbic system as described above to promote feelings of calm and happiness. I encourage you to do some research on your own as each of the citrus oils (Lemon, Lime, Tangerine, Bergamot, Orange) do this very very well.  Other oils can be very helpful with different emotions and feelings…..

  • StressAway: a blend of 5 oils known for their abilities to relieve daily stress and tension. This is a blend unique to Young Living, and is a personal favorite of mine. I carry it in my lab coat at work, and use it daily.
  • Lavender: probably the most well known of essential oils, and best known to create a calming and relaxing environment. When you are preparing your bag, this is one oil you won’t want to be without due to its many functionalities.
  • Anger is another emotion that can be difficult to harness and manage and can often lead to escalated issues. You may find that some or all of these oils of benefit if this is something that is struggled with: Tranquil (a blend), Bergamot, Lemon, Ylang ylang…. and many more… 
  • Lack of concentration and focus can be detrimental, especially when focus is of utmost importance. Oils that may help with this would include Lemon, Rosemary, Peppermint, Clarity (a powerful blend) .
  • Grief and sorrow are both something we have to deal with on occasion. Oils that may help with this would include Bergamot, Joy (a blend), Juniper, White Angelica (a blend), and Gentle Baby (also a blend).
  • Fear is an emotion that none of us enjoy experiencing, and we all feel it on occasion…. whether that be thru our jobs, as we drive, or simply as we prepare for the unknown. Oils known to help alleviate these feelings may include Bergamot, Cypress, Geranium, and Valor (a blend)

Many of the oils mentioned above can be found in the Premium Starter Kit. If you’d like to learn more about managing emotions with oils, I’m happy to help!

Where Do You Buy Your Supplements?

· ·

Almost everyone I know uses supplements to support healthy living.

But if I’ve learned one thing, it’s that supplements are not all created equal.

Quality matters.

Where the ingredients are sourced matters. How the supplement is made matters.  Even the material of the bottle matters!

The amount of research, testing and quality control that goes into producing each and every one of Young Living’s supplements and nutrition products would wow you.

It’s why I turn to them for my supplements, and why I recommend you do so as well.

Check out some of the most popular products under “Supplements” in Categories.

All the best,

Important Vitality Oils

· ·

If you have been exploring oil companies at all, you will find that many have labels that say “do not ingest”. Pure oils should be edible.  Young Living not only stands behind the purity of its products, it has also created a line of oils and oil blends that are specifically labeled for consumption.

​Vitality Dietary essential oils are the perfect way to add flavor and nutrition to foods and beverages of all kinds…..which, as a prepper, could come super handy if we’ve stored food and water that is somewhat bland, but more importantly…..  these oils supplement your health & wellness regimen!

There are 4 types of Vitality oils for you to try (remembering that while adding amazing flavor to food and drink…. they also each support various body systems!)

  • Herb Vitality – Add flavor and freshness with a drop of your favorite herbs.
  • Spice Vitality – Discover your favorite new way to deliver a culinary kick.
  • Citrus Vitality – Brighten your water, smoothies, and recipes with vitamin-rich citrus.
  • Supplement Vitality – Nutritious drops to support your body and enhance your day.

These little 5ml bottles are a perfect addition to your Bug Out Bag. While taste and smell are important, their value to health and wellness management is priceless!

You can check them all out here.

​“Making Wellness A Contagious Pursuit”

It’s Time To Get Serious About The Planning

· ·

Let’s talk for a minute. You have been reading for about a month now, and hopefully you’ve now embraced the notion that you need to be preparing on a level that is unique to you and your family’s personal health concerns. If so, call me… email me… it’s time to get serious about the planning.

Health preparedness is not as simple as just storing product. 

While product is nice to have on hand when you need it, the ability to apply knowledge that you’ve accumulated thru personal experience and thru experience of others could be a gamechanger.  Proficiency in anything requires practice.  It is my personal goal that every single person who joins my team have access to as much education as they desire (in the form of private Facebook groups, books,  education here… thru my blog and emails, and also direction to science backed resources)….. so that they (you?) can become proficient in their unique health and wellness plan BEFORE a crisis situation dictates that it must be implemented.  However, when a crisis happens (and it WILL happen someday), what if you don’t have access to your internet, phone, or your “go to person” when a “how to” question arises? Then you must rely on what you have stored in your brain, what you have in your Bug Out Bag to implement your plan. 

Today’s the day… make a commitment to do this. Let’s pack your bag with the essentials that will be pertinent to YOUR health, (along with the 400+ page essential oil manual you’ll get for free from me) AND begin training your brain to think a bit differently. Let’s get some practice under your belt! Who knows…. by implementing what you learn now, you might become healthier for it, and THAT itself could actually save your life… even if the SHTF doesn’t happen anytime soon.

Let’s do this!

In health and preparedness,
