These oils have changed my life literally and supported my health journey over the past 6 years. I got my premium starter kit in March of 2014 and I was hooked right away. I have my diffuser blasting 24/7 and I can’t do my work or sleep without it. It makes me so happy to know I am cleansing the air and supporting my health all at the same time. The best part is that the oil particles stay in the air for up to 6 hours and the oils can immediately impact my family’s overall well being. Order here
Remember all essential oils are not the same and many are cut with synthetic substances to increase profits. Many brands are nothing more than perfume and can even harm you when inhaled. Many are only for topical use but Young Living oils are labeled as a dietary supplement. I chose Young Living because they are a 25 year old company that own 10 of their own farms across the world as well as running their own distilleries on site. That is why they are the industry leader able to offer their seed to seal promise because they have oversight of the whole process from the planting of the seed, harvesting, distilling and sealing the bottle and sending it out.
Many other companies buy broker oils and by the time the oils are in the stores there is little accountability about the sourcing. Oils can be labeled 100% pure even when they are not so it is a good idea to thoroughly research where you are buying them. The reason I love Young Living is that all the research has been done for me and I can just enjoy the very best oils everyday. Order here
I use them everyday to keep myself above the wellness line and I can think of nothing more valuable than the gift of health. Everyday when I am putting oils on it is like I am taking a moment to say I am important and taking care of me matters. Buying a premium starter kit is a way for you to put yourself first because if you don’t take care of yourself how can you care for everyone else. You will have nothing left to give! I hope you choose the gift of oily health this season by getting 11 of the best everyday oils listed below with your choice of diffuser. Order here
