Discover the Best Way to Dive into the World of Essential Oils
Think Essential Oils Are A Fad?
Take it from a skeptic that thought the need to be "all-natural" was hippy-dippy nonsense, these oils work.
A Little Bit About Me And My Story...
A few years ago, I was struggling with some health things. Nothing major, more of nuisances than anything else. Having tried most of the other options out there, I asked a friend who was into essential oils if she knew of anything that might be able to support my body naturally. I was looking for a small improvement. I wasn't looking to change my lifestyle or habits in any real way. Well, my friend gave me some of her oils to try out for a week or two. I had no idea what I was in for. After I experienced the impact of just those three little oils, there was no turning back. I was all in.
What Are Essential Oils?
An essential oil is that aromatic, volatile liquid that comes from inside flowers, shrubs, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds. Many people call essential oils the lifeblood of plants because they carry oxygen and nutrients within the plant and are part of the regenerative process of the plant. The essential oil is the most power form of the plant, much more potent than the dried herb form. Just one drop has millions of molecules that can affect the body on the cellular level.
So, What Can They Do?
Essential oils have many beneficial uses in our daily lives. We can use them for boosting immunity, for relaxation and better sleep, for stamina and boosting energy, and for uplifting our spirit. There are essential oils to support all the different systems of the body, and many oils support multiple systems. I personally use essentials oils every day to clean my house, nourish my skin, uplift my mood, help unwind at bedtime and so much more! An added benefit has also been replacing toxic chemicals in our home with health-promoting, natural alternatives.
Not All Oils Are Created Equal
This is super important, so listen up. There are about a gazillion and five different brands of essential oils on the market right now due to their surge in popularity. The scary part is that the labeling requirements within the essential oil industry are super lax. That bottle might say 100% Pure, but sadly that doesn't always mean that it is. Most essential oils you'll find on the shelves are adulterated, diluted, or synthetic. Even if you do get your hands on a bottle that's truly pure, it still doesn't mean that it's high quality. Much of the magic is in the distillation process. Unfortunately, essential oils are commonly distilled using high heat or even chemical solvents. Many companies use these methods because they are less expensive. However, these methods compromise the oil and destroy some of it’s beneficial therapeutic qualities. Plus, many farms use toxic pesticides to get higher yields from their crops. Would you want those pesticides distilled down with your oils that you'll be using on your body?
That's why I only use and recommend Young Living's essential oils.
Not only are they world's leader in essential oils, they are also the oldest and most-researched essential oil company. The real kicker is their Seed to Seal process. Y'all they own their own farms. They are the only ones. They start with the seeds, cultivate (without toxic pesticides or herbicides) and harvest the plants, distill the oils using steam distillation and cold pressing methods, test for quality both in-house and via third party, and then bottle them up.
