Many people today are seeking all natural therapy for depression and anxiety because of the many negative side effects of commonly prescribed medications. Essential oils are used medicinally to kill bacteria, fungi, and viruses. They provide exquisite fragrances to balance mood, lift spirits, dispel negative emotions, create a romantic atmosphere and much, much more! Simply put, oils create balance throughout the body immediately relieving depression and anxiety.

Where do they come from?

Essential oils are liquids distilled from shrubs, flowers, trees, roots, bushes, and seeds. Essential oils are highly concentrated and far more potent than dried herbs. It often requires an entire plant or more to produce a SINGLE DROP of distilled essential oil.

How do the oils work?

Essential oils can be diffused through the air and inhaled through the olfactory system to affect EVERY system of the body.
Essential oils can be applied to acupuncture sites on either the feet or ears. It only takes a couple of drops and works in a matter of minutes. Essential oils travel through the blood stream as well as directly to the brain through inhalation.

How do I apply the oils?

All essential oils may be diffused through the air, applied topically directly over the heart, to the Vita Flex points on the feet, to the brainstem on the back of the neck, around the outside of ears, added to bathwater, or simply inhaled through the nostrils.

FOR EXAMPLE, you may have had a long day at work and need to relax. You can apply 2-3 drops of an oil such as Peace & Calming directly to the bottom of the feet. There are so many reflex points on the bottom of the feet which allow the oils to be absorbed through electrical pathways traveling to the nervous system. This results in physical and mental relaxation. Some of the effects include a decreased heart rate, uplifted mood, and a sense of well being.

How are Essential Oils different?

Essential oils are different from vegetable oils such as corn oil, peanut oil, and olive oil. They are not greasy and DO NOT CLOG THE PORES like many vegetable oils can. Young living essential oils are the highest quality oils available on the market. Many other oils are diluted with cheaper and synthetic substances, therefore not as potent. The less potent the oil, the less therapeutic benefit for the body. Young Living Essential Oils has built its name as a result of insuring the highest quality oils with the highest therapeutic effects since 1989.
