ESSENTIAL OILS FOR BEGINNERS
What are essential oils?
Essential oils are the blood of the plant! They repair the plant when it gets damaged, regenerate the plant's cells, keep it healthy, and provide nutrients to the plant. That should give you a little hint into what they do for us!

What do essential oils do?
Our first medicine, long before modern medicine was ever even thought of, was plants, herbs, and OILS.
Oils were our first medicine. They are extracted from all different plants in nature and all have a different purpose for helping keep us healthy and resolving issues that we may be suffering from! Things like sleep, sickness, anxiousness, skin issues, tummy aches, energy, aches - I could keep going on, and on, and on!
Just know that the saying "there's an oil for that" is true!

Does brand matter?
More than anything!
When I'm buying a product to help my health, I don't want to go buy some cheap, synthetic version of that item that's going to harm my health further.
Essential oils are a popular thing these days, friends. The message is spreading that they WORK. Unfortunately, the part that people are missing is that REAL, PURE oils work.
Essential oils are not regulated so that means that any company can jump on the bandwagon, buy some cheap, chemically grown plants or synthetic oil, bottle them, slap a nice big "100% pure" sticker on the front, and then you see it while scrolling Amazon and say "Wow! Lavender for only $6?! I'm buying!"
Nope. Please. Just, no.
If you know me, you know that I am a BIG researcher and I only use the best of the best on my family. That's what Young Living is, and that's why they are the only essential oils that I will use on my family!
I've been to Young Living farms and I've seen the process in person several times. I've interviewed other companies. I've done the research. Through all of that, I've found no other company that even comes close to the purity of Young Living. It's completely unmatched.
