The Oil Purpose

Here are 8 ways to use the stress away blend you might not have heard of before!

1••Massage a few drops into your hair and scalp. The cedarwood in this blend will offer you a calm and grounding effect while helping that hair growth.

2••Put a drop on your thumb then put your thumb on the roof of your mouth to calm down immediately.

3••Make the most amazing body scrub! Take a small glass jar, combine unrefined granulated sugar, a little bit of raw honey, and a small amount of vitamin E oil with 10-15 drops of Stress Away. Sooo good!

4••Rub a few drops along jaw line to help with tension/teeth grinding and clenching.

5••Try massaging on tops and bottoms of feet after a long hard day. Helps to relax the cramping of tired muscles. Extremely beneficial for kids too! Try at bedtime.

6••Traveling with pets who may get stressed this summer? Trips in car, flying or just anxiety at home? Dilute in a carrier oil and apply one drop onto the front paws. Or place several drops onto a scrap of cotton fabric and keep it in their pet carrier or kennel.

7••Use to add fun & fresh flavor to your tea: Put a drop of Stress Away in warm water with honey to give it a fun flavor.

8••Pineapple Stress Away Smoothie: 1 cup of frozen pineapple, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup milk alternative and 2 drops of Stress Away in a blender and blend until smooth!

Happy Summer and use that Stress Away!

Texas. Our emotions are all over the place & many of us just feel numb today.

We are sad.
We are angry
We are broken
We can’t imagine

Please please go to your oil shelf for support.
(I personally grabbed Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood because it’s very very calming, grounding, stabilizing.
I call it my church oil. When I need to be still and process something).

Here are some other suggestions: Frankincense, White Anjelica, Peace & Calming I & II, Sacred Frankincense, Davana, Vetiver, Sage.

Apply 2-3 drops in your palm. Rub hands together and cup hands over your nose.
Inhale. Do deep inhales for 30 seconds.
Or
Diffuse
Or massage on your heart
Or
Or all of the above

Spring is coming. Skip the OTC “stuff.”

Save these! Some wonderful February diffuser blends. And honestly…all year blends! Enjoy!

Yes. Because no chemicals means no chemicals.
Sooooo many shampoos, conditioners, hair care products (such as hairspray/gels etc.) create buildup in your hair so it’s important to get that OUT every now and then.
Ahhhhh this lifestyle is something to appreciate, right?

Valor. Rub this along your jawline at night if you are a grinder. Seriously, try this method. Go put your bottle of Valor on your night table now.
If you need a bottle- just DM us.

(Try adding a drop in your bellybutton too. Might just have a better nights sleep)

Winter has a reason.
And it’s not death.
Far from it.
It’s a time of HEALING to prepare for the burst of spring. The re-birth. Get these oils out now and here’s why.

Yes, it’s the longest period of darkness today, but it IS the beginning of something new. We (humans and our bodies) are directly tied and connected to the earth. 100%. The energy, the electrons, water, air - all of it. Winter, by nature is DORMANT. Yet think about how much energy comes from rest, hibernation and gestation. Our bodies are MOST at center and at peace when we align with the rhythm of the season rather than fighting it.

Don’t resist the urge to:
-take a nap
-snuggle up with a blanket and book
-be still and think
-sit by a fire
-be outside or around trees

Essential oils for this season of connecting to our inner self are HUGE. Their DNA directly impacts ours. We ARE connected to them and they heal us.

Oils to diffuse today:
🌱Frankincense = less worry and chatter in the brain
🌱Vetiver = strength
🌱Cedarwood = invites connection, opens heart
🌱Lavender = sleep AND being able to communicate better
🌱Fir/Pines/Tree = energy
🌱Cinnamon/Clove/Ginger = uplift
🌱Citrus = less anxiety and let go of the crazy

🌱NINGXIA TEA🌱

Happy dance in pjs kinda morning!!!! Saw this recipe trending in the oily world a few days ago and thought no way!

This is a Hail Mary, thank you Jesus, Home Run thing my friends. Run to your fridge now.

➡️Two ounces of your Ningxia Red
➡️2 drops YL orange oil
➡️Boiling hot water

I can’t even!!!!

Replaced my second cup of mojo with this last two days…I mean, it’s AMAZING.

Ningxia + plus orange oil = taking immunity boosting, health priorities and staying above the wellness line to an entirely new level. If your not drinking Ningxia every day you are missing out on a massive gift from Young Living.♥️

Your Monday night after school or work could be so much better with this diffuser blend. Grab your cozy socks, add the drops & fire it up.
Chill time is the best.

So many people struggle with getting up in the morning. Snooze button, snooze button again, snooze button just one more time. We’ve all been there.

Essential oils, when inhaled, reach your limbic system (emotional control center of the brain) within 22 seconds. 22 seconds!! 

All you need is a 5ml bottle of Peppermint Vitality on your night table.
-Alarm goes off.
-Open the peppermint and hold it up to your nose. Don’t worry you can still keep your eyes closed while you do this. 
-Do 5-7 deep inhales.
-Boom. You are awake.

Added boost: Place 1 drop on your tongue, press your tongue to the roof of your mouth for 30 seconds. This method will allow it to enter your bloodstream. Only takes 2 minutes to enter.

Extra extra boost: Add 1 drop of peppermint vitality and 1 drop of lemon vitality to a small glass of water. Chug chug.  This method will allow the oils to enter every cell of your body within 20 minutes helping your blood & organs wake up. This is especially good if you are a morning workout person!

Expert tip: Peppermint is also very soothing and comforting to a headache. Just rub two drops across your forehead and hairline. So if you wake up and are feeling a little out of sorts, peppermint is a win-win!

Holiday cheer: Diffuse this with the blend Stress Away or Christmas Spirit. Trust us on this.

Plastic bottles gone. In the trash!😂 Finally, the goodbye that’s been on our to-do list for oh, about a year now. Who’s soooo sick of their toilet and bathtub scrubs getting clogged in the caps. We are! And even more sick of making two different cleaners. There is ZERO need to make a separate toilet and tub. So we simplified life. Anxiety gone.😂

Go back to glass. Use a cap on your 16 oz. sprayer. They pour beautifully onto scrub brushes, toilet brushes, sponges or rags.

We are whole again. All is right.

“Cool” trick OP friends…

Set a few washcloths in a small glass bowl of water.
Add 3-5 drops each Lavender, Peppermint & Eucalyptus.
Soak.

Squeeze out excess water. Fold in half and roll. Pop in freezer approx 30min.

Lay on spine or neck or forehead when body temp feels elevated.

So comforting & cooling.

I don’t know, I just like my sleep.
Y’all know your immune system re-charges when you sleep right?

You function better during the day when you sleep.

Your hormones are more balanced when you sleep properly.

You manage emotions better when you sleep.

There are natural options that help turn off those racing thoughts and help you stay asleep.

This one doesn’t smell the best in the beginning. But then you realize what it does. Not all oils smell great, but they are powerful and potent for your health.
Quality sleep is health.

This is a blend of ruta oil, valerian & lavender.
Bedtime: Rub it on the bottom of your big toes. Put a drop in your bellybutton.

This.
Make it.
Fill with carrier oil of choice.

Be prepared, everyone will want one too.  We all need to step into the forest every now and then. Protect your peace. Breathe. Unplug. Roll it on.

I’m just over here ignoring the news for a bit and making some natural v***r rub.

1/2 cup coconut oil
1/4 chopped or grated bees wax
20 drops Eucalyptus (Globulus or Radiata)

There are some easy ways to help that annoying dry cough.
Just a few more reasons to be “oilers”….

Be well OP followers.

Are you a nighttime shower person?

We often share the best oils to add to your morning shower (Raven, Eucalyptus Globulus, Eucalyptus Radiata, RC, Peppermint to name a few). Those invigorate and clear sinus pathways.

…but THIS particular oil is a powerful tool to bring down stress levels before bed. Nature in a bottle.
The woods.
Grounding.
Mind clearing.

So try it! After you step in the shower just add drops (approx 5-7) to the corners or around edges where water does not hit directly. Close your eyes and do deep inhales.

Breathe it in.
You can even add a few drops to your body lotion after you dry off.

This is powerful for both men and women.
Protect your peace people! The world is stressful right now.

Young Living doesn’t compromise.
