Essential Oil Series:: Part 1:: Why Oils?

Most of you know I love me some Young Living Essential Oils!  

I haven't touched on this topic yet on the blog so I thought it would be good to tell you why I use Essential Oils for my family!

Why Oils?

• They keep us healthy.  At the first sign of sickness, we oil.  Early & often is the key!  If I feel a tickle in my throat, I apply.  And reapply.  And reapply.
• They help me sleep.  I'm a nervous nelly at night.  I get anxiety.  I take a warm bath before bed and finish with a few drops of oil behind my ears and then on top of my ears.  They help me fall to sleep and sleep soundly.
• They feel great on my skin.  I've started using jojoba + essential oils on my face each night.  My skin has cleared up & isn't dry like it was in the past.  I also use it for diaper rash, eczema & minor cuts + scrapes.
• They give me confidence.  Maybe it's mental, maybe it's oils.  But I know, when I apply our oils, for whatever need it may be for, I am confident I'm doing what's best for my family.  Whether it be caring for my family in time of sickness, promote sleep, calm a fussy baby or even to increase immunity (and keep #allthegerms away), I believe I'm doing what is best and right for my family.

We started using oils before all the cool kids were doing it.  I bought Thieves Soap from a local Homesteading family.  I didn't know what I was using, except they told me it kept germs away and I was sold.  We started using it when Easton was about 2.  Then when Emerson was born with a metabolic disease that can effect her most at times of sickness, I stepped up and purchased Thieves + Purification Essential Oils.  Then, my best friend became a distributer and I purchased a kit from her to help her business.  I started sharing how we used oils and the rest is history!

I try oils first anytime we have any sort of health issue.  I am not so far crunchy to say that we don't use medicine, because I'll be the first one to call the doctor if my kids are sick. But I've been pleasantly surprised with how well we can reroute a sniffle or tummy trouble with the help of essential oils.  

It's hard for me to narrow down what my favorite oil is.  I would first say THIEVES!!!...but then I think, no wait...I really love Purification because it makes my house smell so fresh & clean...but then I remember that lovely Vanilla smell when I apply Stress Away at night and drift off to neverland...and then I think, oooooo, Peppermint...it soothes my headaches and sore muscles....and Lavender opens me right up when I have a cold...There really is no way to narrow down to just one.

That's why I recommend starting with our Premium Starter Kit.  You get 11 of our most popular oils + a Home Diffuser.
