Essential oils are not simple substances, they are mosaics of hundreds – or even thousands – of different natural plant chemicals, natural plant chemicals that our bodies have evolved with over centuries. Any given essential oil may contain anywhere from 80 to 300 or more different constituents. When we walk through a herb garden, and brush against a lavender or thyme plant, for instance, that delightful aroma which fills the air is the essential oil is far more than nice scent.
Young Living Lavender field... ahhhhhhh, heavenly!
An essential oil like lavender is very complex with many constituents occurring in minute quantities – but all contribute to the essential oil’s therapeutic effect to some degree. Each constituent in a plant (or a food for that matter) is there for a reason. This is why I am such a stickler about all of my food and products have to be completely “in-tact.” I want all of the parts to be there and to be whole. Read the rest of this entry »
According to industry estimates, on any given day an average consumer may use as many as 25 different cosmetic and personal care products, including shampoo, nail polish, aftershave and lotion, containing more than 200 different chemical compounds.
A common assumption within the cosmetics industry is that 70% of what is applied to the skin is absorbed into the body. It is not surprising, then, that many dangerous chemicals have gotten into our bodies, our breast milk and our children. Some of these chemicals are linked to cancer, birth defects and other health problems that are on the rise in the human population. Read the rest of this entry »
Slightly over three years ago, I heard the news of Katrina hitting New Orleans while camping, perched some 5,000 feet high on a mountain in British Columbia, Canada. The drive down the mountain to the nearest town to use the computer at a tiny bookstore reveled the Katrina nightmare, I couldn’t believe my eyes and ears. Fortunately, hurricane Guatav wasn’t nearly as bad.
It made me think… I’m not as young and naively invincible as I was in my younger years. Hmmm, what should I do to prepare for an emergency or disaster? What is the ‘least’ I would ideally want with me if presented with an emergency disaster situation? Read the rest of this entry »
Being concentrated, an organic, pure therapeutic-grade essential oil contains virtually all of the plants healing nutrients, oxygenating molecules, amino acid precursors, coenzyme A factors, trace minerals, enzymes, vitamins, hormones and more. And because they are concentrated, a properly distilled essential oil is from 50 to 70 times more therapeutically potent than the fresh or dried herbs or plants they are derived from.
Cooking with Essential Oils
Essential oils are more potent than dried and fresh herbs. Unlike dried herbs, which lose up to 90% of their healing nutrients and oxygen molecules during the drying process, therapeutic-grade Young Living Essential Oils do not. Best of all, 100% pure, organic, therapeutic-grade A Essential Oils are available through Young Living Essential Oils and are safe for cooking, dietary supplementation, and other home use.

When we talk about skin, we usually think about the epithelium, the covering of our bodies. But skin can also be the endothelium, which is the “skin” that lines our arteries and they’re essentially the same type of cells that do the same things. And, when they’re injured they secrete pretty much the same chemicals.
Vitruvian Man: Then and Now
Our bodies, containing some ten trillion cells, has to coordinate their communication and when there is a breakdown in that coordination things can go awry and cause disease – it’s always the communication that needs to be corrected, i.e., the fixing of the instructions is what we want to deal with ultimately.
If our external skin, heart, arteries, kidneys, brain, etc. are related and can produce the symptoms of the underlying disease of aging, it’s good to take a look at the mechanisms that have to do with nutrition and what we allow our bodies to be exposed to. Aging can be slowed down. Studies over the past ten years in many different species of animals have shown that the rate of aging can reduce the rate of aging by 10, 20 and up to 400% – amazing! And, we know that this is done through nutrition, mechanisms that relate to insulin, leptin, and nutrition.The symptoms of aging are wrinkled skin, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, etc. all of which are related to the rate of aging.
It’s been a crazy year, don’t you think!? If you’re like most, the economic events of this past year have been like a monster roller-coaster ride and have wrecked havoc on our emotions and our Energetic Fields (i.e., Chakras and Aura). But did you know that there are body systems and glands associated with our Chakras and Auric Field that can impact the quality of our life and our health? We can do something to empower ourselves and help get back into shape and functioning better…

Emotional Clearing Protocol Using 12 Young Living Essential Oil Blends:
The White Angelica™ essential oil blend is a calming and soothing blend that encourages feelings of protection and security. It combines essential oils used during ancient times to enhance the body’s aura, which brings about a sense of strength and endurance. Many people use it as protection against negative energy. White Angelica works great applied to shoulders.
Young Living’s White Angelica essential oil helps to increase the aura around the body which helps bring a delicate sense of strength and protection, creating a feeling of wholeness in the realm of one’s own spirituality. Its frequency neutralizes negative energy and gives a feeling of protection and security.
Application: For topical or aromatic use. Diffuse or wear on top of shoulders (rub on a couple of drops), along the spine, on crown of the head, on your wrists, behind ears and on the back of the neck.
Excellent in a bath (mix 3-4 drops of White Angelica in 1/2 cup sea salt or Epsom Salts, add to running bath water). Breathing in its protective aroma by diffusing or wearing as a perfume is also very uplifting.
White Angelica contains these Young Living therapeutic-grade essential oils:
• Geranium is believed to be a shield from negative comments, ill intentions and meanness by embracing us with feelings of comfort and protection. The scent of geranium creates a secure place for us to reconnect to our true feelings.
• Spruce oil brings calm assurance to those suffering from fear and anxiety.
• Myrrh is an ideal oil for people who lie in bed and repeat the same thoughts again and again. It is believed that myrrh oil offers fortitude and courage.
• Ylang Ylang has a beautiful aroma that shields when in love, protecting one from a broken heart. The oil is believed to balance male and female energy, bringing harmony to these very different sides of our personalities.
• Hyssop aroma is believed to protect against pessimism and encourage clarity and balance.
• Bergamot* encourages feelings of strength and confidence, protecting one from fear and anxiety. Bergamot is ideal for long, difficult days of frayed nerves and continual frustration.
• Melissa encourages strength and cheerfulness. When used with geranium (as it is in this formula), the two oils bring reassurance and quell feelings of insecurity.
• Sandalwood oil protects one from being overly concerned about worldly possessions. It is believed to aid in meditation and prayer by encouraging serenity and insightfulness.
• Rose possesses a beautiful aroma. The scent of rose protects against melancholy, grief and anxiety. It is particularly useful for those filled with grief after a loss.
• Rosewood inspires protection and love.

Testimonials with White Angelica:
I use White Angelica on my 8yr old grandaughter she was having bad nightmares so I spritz her before going to bed she sleeps better and nightmares are gone. ~ Sheryl K.
White Angelica is one of the oils I first ordered with Young Living. It protects you from negative influences. Everyone has stress and sometimes our closest family member put their negative emotions on us. This has been very protective to me and I have also learned by putting on the heart chakra that it also protects the heart from taking on negativity. I also apply it to the shoulders 3 drops on each. It has the ability to deepen and reach into the energy field and strengthen your emotions to withstand anything you come into. I have also noticed strength to help in business and be more functional. I use it a lot with Clients that have a lot of stress or depression. It has 18 Essential Oils and was made in layers perhaps that is why it is so wonderful at work! It is a beautiful perfume and worth its weight in gold. Happy Oiling ~ Sarah M.

The OCA (Organic Consumer’s Association) web forum is an online community of like-minded people sharing thoughts about the wide variety of topics you regularly read about in Organic Bytes or on the OCA website. The web forum now has over 4,500 members and nearly 10,000 posts. One of those recent posts was from a user named Tedalan on Silk Soy Milk Packaging Scam:
“I was very involved in the creation of Silk Organic Soymilk when it was first designed and manufactured. Steve Demos was very committed to Silk being Non-GMO, Organic and Vegan. Suddenly, when buying Silk at Whole Foods, I discovered that none of the Silk flavors in half gallon containers were certified organic. The cartons look exactly the same as before with the exception/removal of the USDA Organic Seal and the word “organic” before soybeans in the nutritional panel.
This is a very sneaky way for a manufacturer to discontinue Non-GMO Organic soybeans in the manufacture of thier product. I also wonder why Whole Foods continues to sell this product without a “warning sign”. Tedalan

Very few consider their homes to be a real source of stress. After all, the home is seen as a place of safety – a sanctuary and retreat. Our homes continue to be important places of retreat from the greater pressures of our work environment. Now more than ever, our homes need to be healthy centers of calm to support and regenerate us, so the idea that they may cause us stress may be a revelation.
The modern lifestyle of luxury, excess, and technological reliance that we have created and adapted to is beginning to be more widely linked to health issues. Many of today’s health issues are directly related to the toxins in cleaning products and personal care products we use daily. These are not only a source of ill health for us but for our kids, pets and the environment too. Now more than ever it’s important to consider what we can do daily to restore, preserve, and maintain good health and wellness.
Flowers and candles relax senses.
Good health is not just the absence of disease, it’s about having vitality and feeling joyful. This can become a very real possibility when we rethink what we use, what we bring into our homes, and our diet, and make changes to home our environment.
Our ability to cope with everyday events is a reliable indicator of our physical, mental, and emotional health. Each of the 7 stressors below has a major impact on our health health and well-being. Although a single stressor may be handled individually without unbalancing the body too much, the cumulative effect of a few can be extremely harmful to our physical and mental well-being.
7 Stressors in Our Homes:
• Clutter and disorder
• Electromagnetic radiation
• Chemical pollution
• Environmental stress
• Geopathic stress
• Lifestyle stress
• Unhealthy diet
With the exception of “clutter and disorder” Young Living essential oils and Thieves Household Cleaner these can play a beneficial role in helping each of us to have happier, healthier lives.
I know I personally can see how switching changed and enhanced the quality of my life. There is just no way I would ever even think of going back to using the same kinds of products I used many years ago.
When we consider the positive effect essential oils and other Young Living products could have on our well-being we might find the quality of our life changing.
Easy Steps to De-Stress Your Home
1. Diffusing Young Living Essential Oils.
This is perhaps one of the easiest ways to change the vibe happening in a home. If there are kids running around screaming and tense adults on the verge of biting off someone’s head the simple act of smelling therapeutic-grade essential oils from a nebulizer diffuser can make a huge difference.
Young Living Oils I Recommend for Diffusing for a Relaxing Home
• Peace & Calming
• Joy
• Citrus Fresh
• Gentle Baby (great for kids and mom’s to be)
Tip: it is healthier to buy bees wax candles unscented and get your ‘scent’ from a cold-air nebulizer diffuser as you will get the healthy benefits of both this way. Candle makers NEVER use high quality essential oils because it would make their candles extremely expensive. Thus, always assume – all candles contain either the lowest quality essential oils that have been adulterated, or they are using perfume oils that are entirely from chemicals.
Meditation: calming to body, mind & soul.
2. Rubbing Young Living Essential Oils on the Soles of the Feet.
Yup, it’s true… simply rubbing a couple of drops of Young Living oils on the soles of your feet is another excellent way to help de-stress and calm things down. It’s also a good way to help protect yourself from colds and flu, and get a restful nights sleep. Don’t under estimate the power of rubbing a couple drops of therapeutic-grade essential oils on the soles of your feet!
Young Living Oils I Recommend for Calming the Body, Mind and Soul
• Lavender and Orange (combine them, they’re excellent for stress and anxiety as demonstrated in this study)
• RutaVaLa (on the back of the neck and/or soles of the feet)
• Live with Passion
• Peace & Calming
• Tranquil Roll-On
3. Shifting the Negative Energy in Your Home.
As a Traditional Feng Shui practitioner and trained in Space Clearing, I love knowing that we each have the power to clean up any negative energy in our homes that are lingering from a tense debate or rotten luck. Here are two links to previous articles I wrote on how you can change that nasty energy and create an home atmosphere that will help make everyone in your home: My Feng Shui Tips for 2009, and Shifting the Energy in the Home – Space Clearing

5. Addressing Diet.
There are many things that can be done to create a much better diet and I’ll just cover a few basics which include avoiding all processed foods and sugar substitutes. Replace those with locally grown fresh produce and grass-fed meats. Bringing the body into an alkaline state can be very helpful in alleviating many undesirable health conditions.
Add a drop of Young Living essential oil to your cup of tea. Flavorful & soothing.

Psoriasis is a non-infectious skin disorder that is marked by skin patches or flaky skin that can occur in limited areas – such as the scalp – or that can cover up to 80-90% of the body. The overly rapid growth of skin cells is the primary cause of psoriasis. In some cases, skin cells grow four times faster than normal, resulting in the formation of silvery layers that flake off.
Young Living for Natural Skin Care
Treating Psoriasis with pH Balance
Psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, dry skin, allergies, and similar problems indicate an excessive acidic pH in the body. The more acid in the blood and skin the less you will see a therapeutic effect from therapeutic-grade essential oils. People who have a negative reaction to therapeutic-grade essential oils are usually highly acidic.
An alkaline balance must be obtained and then maintained in the blood and skin for the essential oils to work the best.
Young Living’s supplements AlkaLime and MultiGreens are both helpful for this balancing and knowing effective ways to restore the body to an Alkaline pH. If you also have fungus issues you will see improvement regarding that problem as will when you begin making your body more alkaline. Read the rest of this entry »
An alkaline environment in the body is hostile to fungi (and I might also add, hostile to many types of cancer), which require acidity to survive and thrive. Lowered yeast and fungus (read more about Vaginal Yeast and Fungus at the end of this article) populations translate into lower levels of body-damaging, disease-inducing mycotoxins. Some of the most common varieties of pathogenic bacteria, yeast, and fungi that live in the intestines are inactive. However, when the body is weakened by illness, stress, and excess acidity caused by stress, these bacteria become harmful and active, changing into an invasive mycelic form.
The importance of alkalinity to health is something we all might consider paying more attention to – it alone can mean a better quality of health, or a poor quality of health. As the liver’s filtered ability becomes impaired the blood becomes increasing acidic, unfriendly bacteria and fungi that populate our intestinal tracts thrive in an acid environment and are responsible for secreting mycotoxins, which are the root cause of many debilitating human conditions. In fact, many researchers believe that most diseases can be linked to blood and intestinal acidity, which contributes to an acid-based yeast and fungus dominance.
What is and how do we create the ideal pH? Read the rest of this entry »
When most think of cinnamon they think of the cinnamon sticks in mugs of warm apple cider, or the sweet, fragrant, spicy aroma coming from the kitchen oven. Even though the scent of cinnamon may make your home smell amazing when prospective buyers come to your Open House and conger comfy feelings that may very well help you to make the sale – cinnamon has a very long history dating back to 2700 B.C. Cinnamon was not only used for centuries to flavor food but it also played the role as medicine, a perfume ingredient, burned as an aromatic incense, used for anointing, for embalming (it has powerful preservative qualities as you’ll discover), in the bath, and rubbed on beds with aromatic Myrrh and Sandalwood essential oils for it’s aphrodisiac qualities.
Even though we all are quite familiar with powdered cinnamon and cinnamon sticks, not many are aware that it is also an essential oil – it was the essential oil the ancient Egyptians used in embalming and in their daily lives. And cinnamon essential oil was a key ingredient in the “4 Thieves Vinegar” preventing the thieves from contracting the plague during the 15th century while they robbed the homes and bodies of the dead and dying.
We grow up smelling, drinking and eating certain foods and rarely do we know the stories that our ancestors could share with us about how ‘they’ grew, harvested, processed and used a particular food, herb or spice. This article is just a small sampling of the lovely aromatic tree bark we might not know and may have taken for granted, not realizing just how powerful and useful this scented bark from a tree can be in our lives.
Please note: Cinnamon Bark essential oil from Young Living Essential Oils is hundreds of times more potent than the dried cinnamon spice and one must use it properly for the best results. Why is it more potent… because you know how a herb drying room smells so wonderful, well… that’s the essential oil (a volatile oil, not a fatty, greasy oil) going into the air. It’s estimated that a dried herb only retains about 5-10% of its essential oil – which explains ‘why’ a dried herb/spice used for healing purposes can take months before you see any improvement. That’s not the case with a properly distilled therapeutic-grade essential oil. That means you only use a drop or two of a high quality essential oil at a time. For instance, one drop of Peppermint essential oil equals 28 cups of peppermint tea!
Even after 20 years of using essential oils, I am still amazed by how effectively and quickly (sometimes within 30 seconds depending on the problem) therapeutic-grade essential oils work – and I’m an herb lover and have used herbs for cooking, nutrition, and home remedies for 35 years. I’m impressed and will continue using my Young Living oils for the rest of my life, yes they are that good. I still use, honor and love dried herbs, but when I need relief or healing I always turn to my Young Living oils – the differences are remarkable.
First… Your Cinnamon Oil MUST “Bark”
It’s important here to note that there is a vast difference between Cinnamon Bark and Cinnamon Leaf essential oils.
Cinnamon Leaf oil, although it does smell like Cinnamon Bark oil, does NOT contain any of the healing and beneficial properties. Easy to remember – your Cinnamon should always bark… “woof!” Read the rest of this entry »
