How To Apply Your Oils How to apply oils TOPICAL - INHALE - DIFFUSE - INGEST
+ How to apply your oils video: https://vimeo.com/214432675 + We at The Rooted Society want to make sure you know how to apply and use your oils! +TOPICAL: Oils are great to rub directly onto your skin. A good place to start is the bottom of your feet. This is a non-sensitive area and it should be your go-to place for applying oils to babies! Depending on the need you can apply oils neat (undiluted) or diluted with coconut, olive, or Young Living’s V-6 oil straight to the location that you’re needing it for. When you are applying to babies or children, always dilute with a carrier oil. +AROMATIC / INHALING / DIFFUSING: Take a drop of Lavender oil in your hand and smell it. Those tiny molecules are entering your nose and being absorbed by your blood stream! This method of inhaling is a great one you can use quickly and easily with any aromatic oil. You can also place drops of oils in your diffuser and the cool mist will spray them into the air so that you breathe them as you move about your home or office. +INGESTING / INTERNAL: By ingesting oils, you are getting the most benefit of every drop. You can place drops under the tongue, swab the oil on the inside of your cheek, or place drops into a vegetable capsule to swallow. We also like to add oils into our glass water bottles to encourage water consumption throughout the day as well as add the benefits of the oils to your body! Ingestion is a great go-to method while working to boost your health. Be sure to check that the specific oil is labeled for internal use first! Quick tip: if the oil comes as part of the 5ml Vitality Line with a white label, it is safe to consume.
Oils + Babies HOW TO USE
https:// www.youtube.c om/watch? v=deiWBDOCg
Q: What is the safest way to use oils on babies? A: One of the most common concerns when it comes to essential oils is about using them on infants and children. As a pharmacist and a mom, I feel completely comfortable using oils on my son and recommending them to other parents, with a few caveats: + Dilute, dilute, dilute...and when in doubt, dilute! Babies have very absorbent skin because their bodies have a higher water content than adults. This translates to meaning that they require less exposure to an oil to receive its benefits. + I recommend diluting oils before applying to infants and children. We typically dilute 1:1, meaning equal parts carrier oil and essential oil. (See the tip above for some of our favorite carriers!) + Of course, there is an exception to the dilution rule. We apply Copaiba neat (without dilution) to the gums for teething and Lavender neat to bug bites. Always check your EOPR or Gentle Babies for information about specific oils! + Always dilute "hot" oils such as peppermint, oregano, thyme, cinnamon, clove, lemongrass, Thieves and Exodus II. When applied to the skin, these oils can cause a hot or burning sensation. I recommend diluting 1:1 and only using these oils on the bottom of the baby's feet. -Our Resident Pharmacist

OUR FAVORITE
Oil Accessories
Sometimes it can be intimidating or overwhelming staring at your oils fresh out of the box, where to start and how you are going to maximize each oil’s use. Well the BEST way to use your oils is to make them as easy to use as possible! Purchasing items such as roll-ons and sprays to make different pre-diluted blends allows you to have your oils at your fingertips anywhere you may find yourself! Q: What is a carrier oil? A: This is one of the questions we get most often in the group. Carrier oils are the perfect way to dilute essential oils. Some that we recommend: Young Living's V6, unrefined coconut oil, grapeseed oil and jojoba oil! MAKE YOUR OWN ROLLER RECIPES! To make a roller ball you can use half essential oils and half carrier oil. Always look at the back of the bottle to see if the oil needs to be diluted 1:1 or 1:4 and go by that. + Tummy Calmer: 40 drops DiGize + 20 drops Peppermint (top with carrier oil for 15 mL) + This is great for tummy trouble. Apply to belly in a clockwise motion or to feet if smell is too strong. Also great for indigestion, gas, heartburn, candida, etc. + Sleepy Time: 25 drops Lavender + 25 drops Cedarwood (top with carrier oil for 15 mL) + Apply to rim of ears, big toe, wrists and sweet dreams! + For Sniffles: 25 drops Lemon + 25 drops RC (top with carrier oil for 15 mL). + Apply this three times a day at the first sign of a cold. + Wellness Bomb: 10 drops Melaleuca Alternifolia + 10 drops Peppermint + 10 drops Thieves + 10 drops Lemon + 10 drops Oregano (top with carrier oil for 5 mL, you can double or triple) + Texas Time: 10 drops Lavender + 10 drops Copaiba + 10 drops Peppermint + 10 drops Lemon + Use directly for stronger effect or top with carrier oil for 5 mL, you can double for 10 mL + Apply around nostrils, wrists, and/or on chest. Great for opening up the sinuses and combating allergens. Apply 2-4 times a day on the feet until symptoms decrease and then two times a day for maintenance. Q: Where do I get roll-ons, spray bottles, and other goodies: A: Amazon, which nearly everyone uses, has TONS to choose from! +This is our favorite to shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/WhimsyandWellness +Perfect for Thieves Household Cleaner: http://amzn.to/2kWKVPc +Small Spray Bottle Perfect for a variety of DIYs: http://amzn.to/2mcsRRf +Plain 10ml Rollers— http://amzn.to/2iWqUuL +Wool Dryer Balls: http://amzn.to/2hHTD4x

THE YOUNG LIVING
Lifestyle

All plant based, chemical free, all natural, and all infused with essential oils. Here are a few of our favorites: +Supplements & Health Did you know: Due to our current diets and nutrition levels, our bodies only absorb 15-20% of store-bought supplements.
