What is an essential oil?

Essential oils are the natural liquids and aromatic compounds that are distilled from plants, trees, shrubs, flowers, stems, and seeds. The oil is the vital part of the plant. The oils are natural and don’t cause side effects like medications. Native cultures have used essential oils for centuries for emotional and physical healing.  Using Essential Oils is a science. Now there is a large body of knowledge surrounding the therapeutic use of essential oils and how they work in the body. Just as there are many herbal choices there are many essential oil choices and not everything works for everyone.

Quality and education are important for you to benefit and to incorporate using essential oils in your daily life.


How do you know what to look for? The companies I order from, both Young Living and Swiss Aromatics, have these great qualities:

  • Label: Botanical name, plant part, country of origin, distillation date and/or expiration date, chemotype (if applicable), and “Keep Out of Reach of Children” statement
  • Cost: If it’s too good to be true, it probably is. Inexpensive oils have other ingredients and not the pure oil.
  • Testing: Especially GC/MS testing know where the distillation process happens
  • Organic, unsprayed, or wildcrafted- land that hasn’t had pesticides
  • NAHA or other association memberships-are they involved in their industry associations
  • Sustainability and economic cooperatives or initiatives

I find Young Living essential oils good for:

  • can support more restful sleep
  • can support the wellbeing of emotions
  • can ease stress and minor anxiety
  • can support the immune system
  • Therapeutic grade essential oils such as Young Living oils can be ingested (read the labels)
  • Shifting from products with chemicals for daily rituals such as brushing your teeth, mouthwash, sunscreen, bug spray, house cleaning products
  • And  so much more.

Why did I become a member of Young Living besides the quality?

I believe education is the key to sustaining  a new habit.  I am thrilled with the education and support that I find in the Young Living Family. I also like that Young Living is very eco friendly and treats the earth with care.

If you want to know more and have questions and I am happy to set up a time to talk to you about essential oils.

Why Should I sign up and become a Wholesale Member?

Is there a monthly order minimum?
NO, You can just order what you need when you
