April Young Living Gifts

Liz James · April 1, 2024 ·

It’s April 1st and I bet there are no fools here!😍 We are each here because we have quit fooling around with our health and are striving to do better so we can live our best lives! 👊🙌💖
Young Living helps us do that with every single product….. there is a purpose beyond creating a pleasant aroma (tho that’s a benefit!), and each product you get in the mail is an opportunity to ditch a toxin and replace it with something that is not only non-toxic… it’s beneficial to the body in multiple ways.
Disease and “common body dysfunctions” that typically result in being tied to the medical system are 90%+ the result of a combination of toxicity and nutritional deficiencies. The good news is that this means we have 90%+ CONTROL of what we put into our bodies. Powerful right?
I’d be here all day typing if I explained the multiple ways I use each one of the freebies I’ll be looking forward to receiving in my order this month, so I’m just going to tell you two ways for each of them (and encourage you to do your own digging to find more. Pubmed.gov is a great resource for actual science if you’re a “just the facts ma’am” kind of 🤓)
Lemon 🍋 is an “every person’s” essential oil! Of course, it smells amazing and is a “happy” oil. Literally. (check out this study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22364736/ … a pubmed find which is also linked in the “Discover the Research” button at the bottom of the lemon page on the Young Living website). I also use lemon essential oil in my water to help support detoxification pathways in my body. The two different labels (Lemon vs Lemon Vitality) are a requirement by the FDA… it’s the same oil in each of the bottles.
Pine 🌲is another oil I have used daily since 2020 (read between the lines here 😉). I choose to be proactive instead of reactive when it comes to staying well, and in 2020 I learned from Dr. HK Lin that Pine helps do that (he explained to me why, and I was like 🤓🤯🙌). Since that time, I have made a roller bottle with Thieves, Lemon, Pine, and Geranium and applied it to the bottoms of my feet every morning and evening. I was already doing the Thieves daily, but the lemon, pine, and geranium were suggested as important pieces to addressing the new piece of the health puzzle we all now navigate. Bonus points….. tree oils are so grounding, and who doesn’t need help grounding?
Thieves Household Cleaner. Yeah, there ARE ways I can clean in a non-toxic fashion….. baking soda, vinegar, and lemon juice can do quite a lot. So what makes Thieves HHC my “go-to” for 99% of my cleaning needs?
It’s not only a nontoxic alternative, it supports my (and yours too!) immune system while you clean 🫁🙌💖.
It’s 100% safe all the way down to using to wash pets (yes, cats too, and cow udders in my case) and bonus points that fleas don’t do well with THHC. (plus it smells amazing!)
Purification is a “welcome to Spring and here’s all the biting/stinging bugs” oil to keep handy. I’ve found it does a stellar job of neutralizing the bite/sting. It’s also fantastic for neutralizing stinky odors (ahem…. stinky gym shoes/bag). Just put a few drops on a cotton ball and place it in those spots things need to smell fresh instead of 🥴🫠icky.
Thieves was my “gateway” oil that brought me to Young Living! (What was yours???) Roller bottle. Bottom of feet. Daily. (see above….. That Thieves, Pine, Lemon, Geranium recipe I used…. Geranium was free a few months ago… so you might already have that on hand). I’m over here doing the happy dance 💃🕺because I’m getting about 6 months of Immunity Support Roller Bottle oils for FREE just for ordering things I already order! (I also use it in a variety of other ways and reasons….. a must-have for my tool kit!)
Tea Tree is probably one of the most well-known “for your health” oils. I’d encourage you to hop on to the Young Living website and once again check out the “Discover the Research” button at the bottom of the Tea Tree info page. 3 great studies there! How do I use Tea Tree? The “world famous” all-purpose nasal spray recipe has just 4 oil ingredients and Tea Tree is one of them (just a couple of drops). Potent stuff…. and also effective! It’s also my “go-to” for dabbing on the occasional blemish to speed up its going away.
Getting items like these for free every month is so helpful.
1. I get to restock what I use regularly for free.
2. If I’m not familiar with an oil or product, I get to learn and experiment with it for free. Learning and gaining confidence in how and what to use can be priceless education. Get good at the little things so you can be confident in using them for the “big things” (ask me how I know. I’ve managed to avoid lots of trips to the doctor over the last 11 years).
Have a great day friends! What’s the best April Fool’s gag you’ve ever been a part of (on the giving or receiving end)?

Keep Your Pets Safe

Liz James · March 21, 2024 ·

Raise your hand 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️if you share your home with a critter or two (or roughly 55 in our case 🤗🥰). According to statistics, 66% of us do….. and we love ’em. Pet families spend over $19 BILLION dollars a year in the USA on veterinary care (not including supplements, food, collars, etc). 😳
March is Pet Poison Prevention Month and while we’re talking about spring cleaning, I thought it would be a good idea to talk about pets. Yes, they need cleaning themselves on occasion, but equally important….. it’s our job, as the ones who keep them well and healthy….to keep toxins out of their space as much as is “humanly” possible.
According to the American Animal Hospital Association and the ASPCA, these are some of the biggest chemical culprits for bringing harm to animals 👇.
🛑medications
🛑cleaning products
🛑 personal care products
🛑fragrance products
🛑 detergent and detergent “pods”
There are more (take a look at the graphic), but I bring these up to give you a 🙌🙌🙌 for probably already having fixed these issues in your own home and keeping your fur babies safer in the process. Go you!
Animals are often “the canary in the coalmine”. Evidence of toxin overload often affects them on a scale greater than in humans.
Take Georgie for instance. Georgie is our now adult opossum we rescued when she was just an itty bitty thing (her mama had died). Because she was so imprinted on us (she came to be with us before her eyes were open), she was not releasable, and she lives with us as though she is a house cat. Opossums do not live long. A geriatric opossum is over 2 years old. Georgie is over 2 years old now, and doing quite well. The reason opossums do not live long (in addition to getting hit by cars😢) is that they are super sensitive to chemicals…. even more so than cats. Georgie eats all organic human-grade food (I shop at Trader Joe’s and Local Yocal for her🤪), and has had almost zero exposure to chemicals of any kind. The same can be said for our cats🐱, our dogs🐶, our dairy cows🐮, horses🐴, and chickens🐔. Their toxin load is extremely low.
❤️If you happen to still be using traditional toxic cleaners, give Thieves Household Cleaner a try!
❤️mainstream personal care products? Young Living has a treasure chest of healthy alternatives!
❤️plug-ins or other fake fragrances? Get that diffuser out and use it! Young Living oils are safe for use around all types of animals. We even use oils to help them recover from wounds and illnesses, and rarely do we spend $$$$$$ at the vet anymore. We have saved thousands of dollars over the years by using resources like “The Animal Desk Reference” to solve animal health concerns. Remember that 19BILLION dollars a year the USA spends on veterinary care? So thankful Charlie and I contribute minimally to that number every year!
❤️ Detergents and “pods”? Thieves Laundry Soap is an excellent alternative (it’s concentrated so either don’t use but just a little bit, or use one of the recipes on H3 to make your own out of non-toxic ingredients).
Cleaning up your home without adding toxins to your pet’s life only makes sense (and it saves money in so many ways). They are worth it!
What’s one thing you have replaced that might have been shortening your pet’s lifespan by continual “small dose” exposure?
xoxo~ liz

Toolkit for Stings

Liz James · February 26, 2024 ·

This is the 4th time I’ve been stung by one of these Texas scorpions 🦂in the last 25 years.
This time: Twice, in rapid succession on the instep of my right foot. Gah!!! 😖😥
However, it’s the first sting in the last 11 years …. and since that last zinger, I’ve acquired skills💪 and tools ⚒️that I use confidently to manage the rottenness of getting stung.
A quick application of Lavender, a layer of Purification, and a little detox Charcoal mask over the sting.
Pretty much almost immediate and complete relief (these stings can smart for a long time)
What’s in your toolkit for bites and stings?

Young Living’s Love Gifts for February

Liz James · February 1, 2024 ·

Happy February 💖friends! Yes, it’s the “month of love”….. in other words, it’s a month of high frequency emotions! And “the greatest of these is love” , right? (I Cor 13:13).

Did you know there are 7 different kinds of love? One of those is “philia” love…. friendship or shared goodwill, and Young Living certainly extends that to us each month with all the freebies we are offered. Take a look at what what will come with your qualifying order purchase 💕:

Deep Relief is one of my most favorite muscle 💪and stress helpers! Make your own 10ml roller bottle (x2) with this freebie and multiply your gift….. Find a friend or loved one who has some achy muscles and share the love with them!

Bergamot. Have you smelled it and used it? It has been studied for its properties that support healthy cortisol levels, allowing the body to rest and relax. Give it a try…. you might just fall in love with this beauty is as beauty does!

Any day can be Valentines Day with Sensation oil blend! It smells amazing in a diffuser, when applied to a neck or wrists as a perfume, or when added to some epsom salts for a nice hot bath. Make your own massage oil with Sensation (There won’t be any regrets! 😉)….. Add about 10 drops to coconut oil, and you’ve just created a love potion💘 with benefits! (PS: this is a VIP oil you’ll be hearing more about… along with some others over the next few weeks here!)

Spa day can be any day with the Charcoal Mask. Detoxifying skin and cleaning pores is something both men and women should be doing at least occasionally. The Charcoal Mask also exfoliates while detoxifying and cleaning! (Pro Tip: if you have a bug bite or itchy area, try applying a little dab of the mask to help pull toxins out and speed up the healing process). I think you’ll love the little peppermint fresh tingle that comes along with using it.

Did you know that toxins in our body affect our frequency, which ultimately also affects our emotions? DetoxZyme is a blend of enzymes and essential oils strategically formulated to promote detoxification and support normal digestive function. Keep yourself (or someone you love) healthy, happy and loved from the inside out!

These are all AMAZING health and wellness tools we (Charlie and I) keep in our “toolkit” and I look forward to restocking our shelves!

Hugs and love to each one of you this February, and remember….. nobody loves you more than Jesus! ~ liz
