what are essential oils?
Essential oils are organic compounds extracted from plants that have therapeutic properties. They can be found in the plant’s flower, stem, leaves, bark, or fruit. The chemistry is extremely complex and may consist of hundreds of different and unique chemical compounds. Young Living oils are therapeutic-grade, meaning they have the ability to work with your body. essential oils are just that : oils .
They’re the life blood of a plant, and when these plants are grown in the right conditions, harvested at the correct time, and distilled with the utmost care, they can aid in keeping our bodies healthy, well, and happy— which is how our bodies were intended to be. Essential oils are composed of teeny molecules. These molecules are so small that they can pass through our tissues and go directly into our cells. Our systems are super effective and can transport these molecules all over our bodies within a matter of minutes. what do essential oils smell like ?
Well, they should smell exactly like the plant they come from—nothing more, nothing less. Often, companies will add things like synthetically produced vanillin to make them smell sweeter. Do your oils smell like a plant or a dessert? If it says 100% pure but it smells sweet, chances are something else has been added or it hasn’t been distilled properly. This means that the therapeutic properties are either decreased or nonexistent. example
Cypress oil has 280 known chemical constituents. It must be distilled for a full 24 hours to get all 280 constituents. In 20 hours, you only get 20 of the 280 properties. If you distill for 26 hours, you will get zero of the properties. Cypress is an amazing plant with so many benefits—if you want it to work for you, you must get all 280 constituents. No more, and no less. An oil distilled improperly gives us no benefits. Young Living goes above and beyond to make sure every plant is harvested and distilled to perfection.

Seed to Seal means that from the time the seed is sourced until the oil is sealed in the bottle, rigorous quality control ensures that you are receiving essential oils exactly the way nature intended.
why choose young living? YOUNG LIVING’S SEED TO SEAL PROMISE IS UNMATCHED IN THIS INDUSTRY.
Young Living owns its own farms and distilleries across the globe. Anyone can tour the farms and be a part of the process. The land used is beyond typical organic standards here in the U.S. The dirt and water are tested and for additives and toxins. Essential oils are used for natural pest control. Young Living harvests its own non-GMO seeds. Young Living has strict standards, and every batch of oil is tested multiple times throughout the process by both in-house and 3rd party testing, starting from the raw material up until it’s bottled. If it doesn’t match the quality standards, it is rejected. Young Living is the world leader in essential oils with over 30 years of experience.

using your essential oils
our favorites
carrier oils
Very nourishing to the skin. Can be purchased in a fractionated, liquid version as well.
Essential oils are highly concentrated and evaporate quickly. When blending them with a carrier oil (any fatty oil), it helps disperse them on the skin for a more even application. Diluting with a carrier oil does not decrease the effectiveness. We like to keep a dropper bottle filled with carrier oil nearby for quick dilution.

Nourishing and soothing to the skin. grapeseed

aromatic
This is one of our favorite ways to use our oils! Put a drop of Stress Away in your palms and take a deep, slow breath—those tiny molecules are entering your nose and being absorbed by your blood stream. By dropping a few drops of an oil into your diffuser, the cool mist will disperse them throughout the air so that you can breathe them as you move about your home. Some of our favorite diffusers are the Aria (pictured here), Desert Mist, and Lantern.
topical Oils can be applied directly onto your skin, either “neat” (undiluted) or diluted with a carrier oil. The bottle will give you instructions. Examples of carrier oils are coconut, olive, grapeseed, and Young Living’s V-6 oil. Always refer to the label for dilution recommendations. The bottoms of the feet are a good place to start when using oils on children, but always dilute properly with a carrier oil according to age.
make a roller
a how -to guide
Grab a 10 ml roller. (Amazon has them!) Add 30 drops total essential oils of your choice. Feel free to get creative with this! You can increase or decrease the number of drops of essential oils as needed. Fill the rest of the roller bottle with carrier oil. Give it a swirl and roll on feet, spine, wrists, or wherever needed.

internal
Young Living’s Vitality oils are specially labeled for internal use. The oils in this line contain the same oils in the traditional line, but they are labeled differently to meet FDA regulations. We love adding oils to our glass water bottles and giving them a good shake to encourage water consumption throughout the day. You can also put a few drops into a veggie capsule to swallow. For adults, our go-to use is under the tongue because of how quickly the oils are absorbed into your body through your mouth. Making a capsule is super easy! Just add a few drops of your favorite Vitality oils into an empty capsule and fill to the top with carrier oil. Here are some of our favorite capsule recipes. You can adjust them as needed. Start with 1 drop each or use more. You are the boss! healthy keeper

3 drops Copaiba Vitality and 3 drops Frankincense Vitality. Not all essential oils are safe to ingest. It depends on the type of the essential oil. Essential oils available at the health food store or online are labeled “not for internal use” on the bottle. Even if the bottle says “100% pure essential oil,” it is very likely it is cut with synthetics or chemical fillers. We are trying to keep toxins out of our bodies, not put them back in! Check your reference guide to determine which oils can be ingested. Our favorite is from www.discoverlsp.com.

You are the keeper of your health and body. If you decide to use less, great! If you want to use more, great! Adjust recipes as needed. If you need to add more carrier oil, add more carrier oil. We use these tricks as often as we need them. That may mean once a day or 10 times a day. immupower

kids
Being able to teach our children how to be in control of their own wellness is such a special thing. With a few simple guidelines, using essential oils with your children is a super sweet bonding experience. Always dilute when applying oils to the littles. Applying oils to the feet of infants and children is a good place to start before slowly increasing to other areas on the body. While there are no hard and fast rules for dilution, we prefer to start with these dilution ratios. The book Gentle Babies by Debra Raybern is one of our favorite resources for essential oil safety during pregnancy, on children, and while breastfeeding.

Ningxia wolfberries are from the Ningxia region of China, where the most potent species (Lycium barbarum) is grown in the mineral-rich, super fertile soil near the Yellow River. This area is unlike anywhere else on the earth and it shows—this species of wolfberry has the highest antioxidant value. zyng

oils of ancient scripture collection
infused 7 collection
The Oils of Ancient Scripture Collection contains 10 oils from the most significant plants, botanicals, materials, and resins in the Bible. With the refreshing scents of Myrtle and Cedarwood and the rich fragrances of Frankincense and Myrrh, this kit is designed to help you savor and enjoy the beautiful aromas and intriguing histories of these precious, pure essential oils.
Oola (originating from the word "oo-la-la") is a lifestyle based on the international best-selling book, Oola: Find balance in an Unbalanced World. Oo-la (noun): That state of awesomeness. It is when your life is balanced and growing in the seven key areas of life—the 7 F's of Oola: Fitness, Finance, Family, Field, Faith, Friends, and Fun!
Aloes (Sacred Sandalwood), Cassia, Cedarwood, Cypress, Frankincense, Hyssop, Myrrh, Myrtle, Onycha, Rose of Sharon (Cistus).
Oola is simply a life that is balanced and growing in all the key areas of health and well-being. It’s unlocking potential for greatness in each one of us. It can be a destination or a feeling. It can be as complex as a life that is growing and balanced in Fitness, Finance, Family, Field, Faith, Friends, and Fun or as simple as a sunset, quiet book on the beach, or a special moment with a child. It is that place we all shoot for in life. That feeling we experience when we celebrate our successes along the way! When Young Living combined forces with Oola, they created one heck of a powerhouse for your mindy, body, and soul. Gary Young specifically formulated each blend in this kit with oils that will help you connect on a spiritual and physical level as you pursue balance, take action toward your dreams, and pursue your Oola life.

community When you grab your starter kit from a friend, you are part of our community! We know how exciting and a little overwhelming it can be to learn something new. We are committed to guiding you every step of the way. We’ve created resources to make your wellness journey as easy and as fulfilling as it can be. We have an exclusive Facebook group where others share their testimonies, recipes, and ideas. You can ask questions and learn alongside us. We hold monthly classes both online and in person, and we are here to help you however we can. Our community was founded to help other women (and men!) like us who love oils and a crunchy—but modern and hip—lifestyle (fancy hippies, as we like to call ourselves) to come together and actually provide for our families while doing it. Being able to teach other families (like our own) to be empowered by their own wellness journey was incredible. Month after month we watched it keep growing. As more and more families joined us, somehow we just kept wanting to change the perceived view of network marketing into what it really was: A community of like-minded people sharing stories and successes and hope and freedom and wellness.

And when your friends ask you about them, you, the amazingly good-hearted and smart and kind person you are, will say, “I got you, girl!” ... or boy ... or mom ... whatevs. At this point, you’ll give them some information on oils, how and why to use them (maybe you’ll lend them a copy of this book!), and share your personal experience with them and how they keep you living happily above the wellness line. They will totally want to grab a Premium Starter Kit, and you’ll just send them your personal sign-up link!

first t hings first First things first, open your kit!!! Set up your diffuser and add a few drops of Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint. Throw your Stress Away in your purse because you're going to need it everywhere you go. Pop your NingXia samples in the freezer for an awesome frozen treat later. Add your Thieves sample to a 16 oz. spray bottle, and fill the rest with water to clean all the things. Keep your Lavender by your bed for the best sleep ever, and add a few drops of Frankincense to your moisturizer. Throw your PanAway in your gym bag. Keep your Peppermint Vitality in the kitchen, and add a few drops next time you make brownies. Keep your Lemon by the laundry, and add a few drops to your wool dryer balls. Most importantly, use your oils! Have them out where you can see them, and remember to use them!
safety Safety is important when using essential oils—they are powerful and should be treated with knowledge and respect. We recommend grabbing yourself a reference guide! Our favorites are found at www.discoverlsp.com. Young Living’s oils are pure—which is why they are the only oils we trust for our families! a few tips
• If you need to wash an oil off, don’t use water. Add carrier oil and wipe. • Store your oils out of reach of children and in a cool, dark place with lids tightly closed. • Keep a carrier oil (for example, olive, coconut, etc.) on hand for dilution. Some oils can be used neat (without a carrier oil), and some need more dilution. Always check the label (peel it up a bit!) or your reference guide. If you are ever in doubt, just add more carrier oil. Suggestions in this book are specific to Young Living only.

• Always use a glass container when drinking essential oil-infused drinks. Plastic products contain chemicals that can easily be broken down by the oil. • Check the label (you may need to peel the label up) for oils that are photosensitive—meaning you want to stay out of the sun or cover the area you applied it to. Some examples are Bergamot, any citrus oil, Peace & Calming, Stress Away, Joy, and Gentle Baby. 69
