Applying Oils You don’t need to be an aromatherapist to use oils. In most cases, just rub it topically onto the skin. There are three main ways to get oils into your system: • The English apply them topically – rub it on the skin • The French ingest them • The Germans diffuse and inhale them, which can be the most effective method because it doesn’t have to pass through the digestive system

How Do They Enter? • Tests have shown oils reach the heart, liver and thyroid in three seconds when inhaled • They were found in the bloodstream in twenty-six seconds when applied topically How Long Do They Last? • Expulsion of essential oils takes place in three to six hours in a normal, healthy body.

Essential Oils History • • • First mentioned in the Bible in Genesis, chapter 37 when the slave traders that took Joseph carried Spices, Balm, and Myrrh Joseph's father was anointed with Myrrh for burial in Genesis Jesus was given Frankincense, Myrrh, and gold Oils are mentioned 1100 times directly or indirectly in scripture Some of the oldest cultures used essential oils It was only after World War II when essential oils were “rediscovered”. The science on their uses grows with every single year

Different Grades Of Oils Grade A – Therapeutic Made from organically grown plants and distilled at low temperatures Grade B - Food grade May contain synthetics, pesticides, fertilizers, chemical extenders, or carrier oils Grade C – Perfume Often contains adulterating chemicals and solvents to gain higher yield. Solvents can be cancerous, and are in many store bought oils. They may also be diluted 80 -95% with alcohol. Grade D – Floral Water Aromatic only and usually a byproduct of Grade A distillation. After the oil is pulled out, the left over floral water is sold to companies. They in turn will fill 5% of the bottle with this floral water, and top the rest off with carriers and label it “pure”.

Seed To Seal • • The plants are hand weeded No pesticides No chemicals No weed killers Harvested at their peak Vigorous testing process From the farm to the home SEED TO SEAL: It is not a slogan, it’s a promise!

Why Do Companies Sell Oils More Cheaply? To save money. • If you spray your crop with pesticides, you have more crop to distill • If you use a chemical solvent to extract the oil, you pull more out • If you dilute it with a cheaper oil or a carrier oil, you stretch the oil you have distilled Most essential oils are sold more cheaply because companies cut corners!!

How Oils Are Made It takes a great deal of work to produce a tiny amount of essential oil! • 60 thousand rose blossoms will provide only 1 ounce of rose oil • Lavender is abundant: 220 pounds will provide 7 pounds of oil • Jasmine: It takes 8 million hand–picked blossoms to produce 2. 2 pounds of oil • Sandalwood trees need to be 30 years old and 30 feet tall (and 90 percent dead) before Young Living will harvest them

A Little Goes A Long Way! • • • Most oils are between $10 and $30 Essential oils are sold in 5 ml and 15 ml bottles A 5 ml bottle contains about 90 drops A 15 ml bottle contains about 250 drops Each application is 1 to 3 drops You can get between 45 to 90 applications in each 5 ml bottle • You can get between 83 to 250 applications in the 15 ml bottle • Thieves Cleaner is made of plants only and costs about $1. 50 a bottle to make

Are They Safe? • Certain oils are photosensitive, so don't use if going outside Examples: Lemon, Grapefruit, and most citrus oils • When using on your skin, always watch for redness and dilute with a carrier oil • Dilute oils on children, because their skin is more permeable and absorbs the oils more quickly • Do not EVER put oils near your eyes Internal Use: Young Living has created a Vitality line with distinctive labels so you can easy recognize which oils are safe to take internally (GRAS - Generally Regarded As Safe)

What Is A Carrier Oil? It’s a fatty oil like olive oil or coconut oil, and its molecules are much larger than those of essential oils Why use a carrier oil? • It makes your essential oil go farther • Slows down absorption because the essential oil has to ping pong through the large molecules of the carrier oil to get into your skin

Think About It Look at the ingredients list of the products that are in your bathroom and kitchen. Everyday we put products on our skin, in our body, and breathe them in, but many of these products contain damaging chemicals. The average woman applies over 300 chemicals a day to her body just through soaps, makeup, shampoo and hair products. Eighty of these products are applied before breakfast. Young Living oils have just one ingredient: Lemon, Oregano, Tangerine. That means no additives and no YUCK.

Why Oils? Because you need them in your home as part of a simple, chemical free lifestyle. It is time to kick chemicals to the curb! Only you control what you allow across the threshold of your home. When you see what they do for your body and begin to kick chemicals out of every room in your house, it is impossible to walk into the home of your friends and family and not share what you know– especially when you see the ingredients lists in the products they use every single day. You share it because you love and care for your friends, and you want them to live a healthy life. When you take care of yourself, you can fully do what God created you to do.

Where Do You Begin? With a Young Living Starter Kit It is the only thing on the Young Living site that’s half off.
