🎥 “Do you understand now why I didn’t sell my oils to a health food store?” —Gary Young 🤠🐴

A long time ago, a big-name company tried to buy out Young Living.
But Gary said No.

Not because the offer wasn’t generous.
Not because he didn’t want to “make it big.”
But because he believed in us—the people.
And the mission.

He knew two things were non-negotiable:

1️⃣ Relationships.
Gary saw how powerful this model could be when it’s done right.
Real friendships.
Real impact.
Real community.
Not some product gathering dust on a store shelf.

2️⃣ Education.
He didn’t want someone buying an oil with zero support or understanding.
He wanted every bottle to come with a person—someone who could say, “Here’s how this changed my life.”

📚 That’s why we do what we do.
Why you matter.
And why the Young Living model still works 30+ years later.

Did you know? 👀
💧 Young Living was the first essential oil company to bring oils to the world through network marketing.
We created the trend.
We built the farms.
We ran the tests.
We wrote the books.
Some of the other companies out there today?
Yep… they started here too.
But they don’t own a single farm.
They buy oils through brokers and slap on a label.

But here’s the deal: quality isn’t negotiable.
💥 There’s a buyer for every oil out there—no matter how diluted or doctored. But not us. Not YL.

I can stand here today and tell you—with full confidence—our oils are the real deal.
The testing, the transparency, the farms… it’s unmatched. isn’t just a slogan.
It’s our standard.

If you’ve never flipped through the Essential Oils Desk Reference, it’s a goldmine.
YEARS of research and wisdom packed into one resource.
Ask your enroller how to get your hands on one.
You’ll be obsessed.

🤍 I’m just so dang grateful Gary never “sold out.”

This community? These products?
They’ve changed lives! Including mine.

Let’s keep Gary’s legacy alive. 💫

Allergies
How To Safely Use Essential Oils

Occasionally, individuals beginning to use quality essential oils will suffer rashes or allergic reactions. This may be due to using a diluted spice, conifer, or citrus oil, or it may be caused by an interaction of the oil with residues of synthetic, petroleum-based, personal-care products that have leached into the skin.

When using essential oils on a daily basis, it is imperative to avoid personal-care products containing ammonium or hydrocarbon-based chemicals. These include quaternary compounds such as quaternariums and poly-quaternariums. These chemicals can be fatal if ingested, especially benzalkonium chloride, which, unfortunately, is used in many personal-care products on the market.

Other chemicals such as aluminum compounds, FD&C colors, formaldehyde, all parabens, talc, thimersol, mercury, and titanium dioxide, just to name a few, are all toxic to the body and should be avoided. These compounds are commonly found in a variety of hand creams, mouthwashes, shampoos, antiperspirants, after-shave lotions, and hair-care products.

Other compounds that present concerns are sodium laurel sulfate, propylene glycol—–extremely common in everything from toothpaste to shampoo—-and aluminum salts found in many deodorants.

Making Changes

Making changes is the hardest part of Terrain Mapping. Start with something that you can do, then build on it. Sometimes we do best ripping the bandage off in an "all or nothing" style. If that is you, then go for it! CHOOSE LIFE! But if it would be too overwhelming then work on one thing until you have a handle on it, then go to the next thing. This is basically a life swap. You are going to swap an unhealthy habit for a healthy one. Below are some examples of great Young Living swaps.

UNHEALTHY for HEALTHY
* Swap coffee for Ningxia Red infused with Nitro
* Swap toxic cleaning supplies for Thieves® cleaning supplies, in the Laundry, kitchen, bathroom, and whole house!
* Swap toxic face care for ART system
* Swap synthetic vitamins for YL supplement line
* Swap toxic makeup for Savvy Minerals
* Swap toxic toothpaste for Denterome Plus
* Swap toxic candles for cold-water diffusers
* Swap uber-toxic air fresheners for natural essential oils
* Swap OTC medicines for healthy alternatives
* Swap toxic energy drinks for Ningxia Zyng
* Swap toxic sunscreen, lotions, hair care, and bug repellent all for Young Living's toxin-free line.
It is super simple and cost effective with most YL products either matching or beating the drug-store and department store brands. Contact your rep to find out how to do the swap! You will be so happy you did!

I encourage you to watch this very important video to help you understand more on how your body and oils work.

COFFEE- IS IT GOOD FOR YOU OR NOT?

I realize most people have come up with several reasons why coffee is good for us, but think about that one. Coffee is drastically dehydrating and gives us a false sense of energy. If you are not addicted to the caffeine you are probably addicted to the routine. Coffee has been studied to completely ruin your immune system and lowers your frequency by so much that it puts you in a state of happily accepting all applications for the cold and flu to take residence in your body. No thank you!

The following is from the book French Aromatherapy and can help you eliminate coffee for good in your life.
Coffee addiction is one of the most common struggles that many adults face. To detox from the caffeine in coffee, I recommend the following regimen that will only take about 2 weeks. It’s well worth the effort, so I encourage you to try cutting all sources of caffeine out of your life.
1. Take a capsule containing a combination of Ocotea (DS), Peppermint Vitality, and Dill Vitality oils that may help curb your cravings. Blend equal parts in a 5ml bottle then drip 3 drops in an empty capsule and top off with a carrier oil. Take 1–2 of these capsules per day.
2. Drink a gallon of water with 6–12 drops of Lemon Vitality essential oil per day. For each 20-24 ounce bottle of water, use 1-2 drops of Lemon Vitality essential oil. Add a drop of Peppermint for added craving support.
3. At the times when you normally drink coffee, instead have a warm cup of herbal tea or hot water with fresh lemon and a bit of honey. Try to replace your ritual with something more healthful for your body, such as a cup of hot water with a drop of Thieves and Lemon Vitality. You can also try Organic Dandy Blend Instant Herbal Beverage with Dandelion. If you make it dark, it can become a really healthful alternative!
4. Get your lymphatic system moving by walking for a minimum of 30 minutes a day. If you are up for it I suggest sweating it out through 60 minutes of rigorous cardio. Also try setting your alarm to go off every hour so you can jog in place for 60 seconds.
5. Find a good quality caffeine replacement that’s nutrition based. I personally use Ningxia Red and Ningxia Nitro—it will help replenish and energize your cells.
6. Get a deep tissue massage once a week during detox. After the massage take a hot water bath with 4 cups of Epsom salt in the bath. Soak for 20 minutes. Epsom helps pull toxins from your body.
7. Take an Epsom salt bath 3 times a week for 2 weeks. Pour 2–4 cups of Epsom salt into a hot bath and soak your entire body for 20 minutes, which will help regulate the minerals in your body and pull toxins out. I also recommend using Dead Sea salt. If you get both, do 2 cups of each per bath. Spruce it up with a few drops of Cedarwood and Lavender essential oils.
8. When you feel a craving for coffee, practice deep breathing. Lie down on your back, place your hands on your belly, and take a deep breath to a count of 10 so your lungs fully inflate and your tummy rises. Then breathe out slowly to a count of 20, exhaling as deeply as you can. Try to squeeze all the oxygen out of your lungs. Do this 3–5 times. Get up slowly once you’re done because you may feel light headed.

Bio Feedback

Now that you know what your foundation looks like, I would like you to read over the entire list in the positive.

Wipe away the past. Your body needs to know in order to heal. Your mind needs information like a road map. Give it a clear picture.

God created our bodies with such intricacies that we may never fully understand. We think a computer is complicated? Our bodies are a gazillion times more complicated than a computer.

Just because you may not understand biofeedback fully does not mean it is not real. Create a good photo of your history, then wipe it away. Tell your body you are clean. Tell your body specifically in all the areas you have issues that you are healthy. If you are addicted to coffee, say, "no more," and start saying you love to wake up in the morning to a hot cup of water with a drop of Thieves and Lemon Vitality Essential Oil, then do it. If you are exhausted all the time, start telling yourself you are so happy and full of life!

UPGRADE YOUR VERBAL SOFTWARE!

To read more about Biofeedback, you can get the full lesson in The EO Bar app under the Education tab.

"Terrain" Mapping

The following posts are from "French Aromatherapy" by Jen O’Sullivan and is used with permission from Jen.

Terrain Mapping Could Drastically Improve Your Life!

I can say without a shadow of a doubt that Terrain Mapping along with actual implementation is one of the hardest, yet most rewarding life experiences one can choose to do. The first part is the easy part but knowing is half the battle, right? Let's begin...

LIFE PHOTO

The first part of Terrain Mapping is taking a good long inventory of your life from pre-birth to present. Be super honest with yourself and answer truthfully. The questions below will help get a good "life-photo" of you. The goal is to find out what the root cause is for any issues you may be having.

1. What is your family history?

2. Do you have any chronic issues?

3. Any major illnesses or long term medication use?

4. Where were you raised? City or Fresh air?

5. What foods were you fed? Meat and potatoes, lots of milk, processed TV dinners, or fresh ingredients?

6. Were there any power-lines or chemicals near your childhood home?

7. What is your current living situation? Healthy area or unhealthy?

8. Are you married? Happily or unhappily?

9. Do you have kids? Happily or unhappily?

10. What do you currently eat? Mostly processed or mostly fresh?

11. Do you drink processed beverages of any kind? Soda, tea, flavored drinks? How many?

12. Do you drink coffee? How many cups per day?

13. Do you drink alcohol? How many glasses per day/week?

14. Do you work a stressful job?

15. How many hours per day are you in front of a computer?

16. How many hours per day are you outside?

17. How many minutes per day do you exercise?

18. Do you smoke or take drugs (medicinal or recreational)?

19. How many ounces of straight water do you drink per day?

20. How many servings of fresh fruit do you eat per day?

21. How many servings of fresh veggies do you eat per day?

22. How many grams of animal protein do you eat per day?

23. What supplements are you taking?

24. About how many grams of sugar do you consume each day?

25. Do you pray or meditate every day? How long?

26. How many hours per night do you sleep?

27. Do you wake up refreshed or groggy?

28. Are you often tired during the day?

29. Do you have trouble focusing or multi-tasking?

30. How often do you have a bowel movement? What shape and texture is it? What color is your urine?

Answer these questions truthfully before you start your terrain map. You need to determine your foundation before you can support your long-term health goals.
