The 2023 Travel Handbook

How to Travel with Oils

Our oils go wherever we go! Often they are in our backpacks, purses and cars either on their own or in a cute oil organizer, but when you're traveling by plane or leaving the country you will want to store them differently.

• For plane travel, place your oil bottles or rollers in a 1 quart ziploc bag just like you do with your other liquids & gels, making sure to tighten the lids. We recommend keeping them in your carry-on luggage to avoid any leaks.
• Choose NingXia Red packets and place them in the zip top bag with the other liquids.
• When flying internationally ALWAYS check their TSA regulations as some may vary by country.
• Grab a supplement organizer and fill it out with your Young Living supplements (we love Inner Defense, Super C Chewables and ImmuPro for travel!)
• Grab a Bon Voyage travel Pack for TSA-approved sizes of your favorite Young Living personal care products and a perfectly sized carrier.

---

Quick Travel Hacks

• Reuse an essential oil bottle and fill with liquid carrier oil as a convenient way to dilute your oils when needed.
• Reuse Thieves Hand Sanitizer bottles to make TSA-approved sizes of your shampoo, conditioner, etc.
• Roll up your diffuser plug and stick inside the diffuser, then add the covers back to make sure you don't forget it! We like to travel with the Desert Mist since it is plastic, and you can even forgo the outer cover to save space!
• Premix diffuser blends in empty 5mL bottles for convenience -- think Thieves + Orange for when you arrive and Lavender, Valor and Frankincense for sweet sleep when traveling!
• Utilize the packet versions of supplements: AlkaLime for happy bellies, KidScents MightyPro as an adult probiotic that doesn't need refrigeration, KidScents Unwind as a nightly magnesium supplement.
• Quick tip! - Dining outside & want to keep the bugs away? Grab an outdoor fan, put a few drops of Citronella + Geranium on a clothespin (or two!) & attach to the front of the fan & you have yourself a giant outdoor diffuser!

Top 10 Travel Essentials

• Thieves Hand Sanitizer - this one is a no brainer!

Lemon Essential Oil Spotlight

• Helps neutralize unwanted odors
• Cleansing and purifying
• Great addition to cleaning products & DIYs
• Removes sticky adhesives and residues from non-porous surfaces
• Can support the immune system when taken internally
• Has natural mucolytic properties
• Is high in limonene
• Contains antioxidants

• Limonene - known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-stress support, this is a powerful constituent with many health benefits
• Gamma-terpinene - a potent antioxidant, Chinese medicine believes that this constituent may halt the advance of unwelcome microbes, reducing the risk of colds and 'flu-like symptoms.'
• Beta-pinene - a powerful antioxidant, some studies have shown beta-pinene to support the body through inflammation, to help calm the mind and to ease the body from the ‘fight or flight' response

• Frustration is closely tied to our expectations (of ourselves, of others, or of a situation or outcome). The other side, or opposite feeling, of Frustration is Accomplishment. Most of the time when we feel frustrated is usually because we fear that we are not going to accomplish what we want to do/ feel/ or have happen! Releasing Emotional Patterns with Essential Oils suggests rubbing a drop or two of Lemon along the ribs, near the sternum (above the bile ducts), and focus on moving beyond your limitations or expectations. If we store up enough frustration that does not get resolved it turns to chronic anger, which is highly associated with liver and gallbladder discomfort or problems. So it's good to let the frustration go!
• Lack, or the feeling of emptiness- when we don't feel "Complete". The other side of Lack is Full. This also makes this oil great for the Enneagram 7s and Enneagram 4s! Releasing Emotional Patterns suggests rubbing Lemon over the heart and chest while focusing on our completeness and all that we currently possess.
• Stuck, the opposite of feeling Transformed and moving forward. When we feel stuck we fear experiencing life. So rubbing Lemon on the sinuses can be helpful for branching out and having new experiences and getting un-stuck! Note: do not use Lemon (or other citrus oils) on skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight within two hours.

• With the oil still on your fingers and palms, massage the bottoms of your feet, spending thirty seconds on each one.
• Move up to your wrists and gently massage the area with your thumb; spend ten to fifteen seconds on each wrist.
• Next, move to the ears; use your fingers to massage the area behind your ears in circles for fifteen seconds.
• Floating up to the forehead, massage your temples with your forefingers in circles for ten seconds.
• Finally, cup your palms over your nose and mouth and take five deep inhales.

WINTER EMOTIONS + YOGA

  Add 4-5 drops of essential oils to each dryer ball. Let the dryer balls air dry for about an hour or to speed up the process you can dry them alone. This will allow the oil to absorb into the wool and not transfer to your clothes.
  When it's time to dry your clothes - toss the dryer balls into the dryer with your clothing. Refresh the oils every 4-5 loads or more often if you prefer a stronger scent.

• About 5 oranges or a mix of oranges, clementines and grapefruit for varied sizes and colors

Pour 2-3 drops of essential oils on each slice, then set them in a cool oven and turn the temperature onto the lowest setting your oven will allow. (If your oven does not go below 300, set it there and use a wooden spoon to prop the oven open slightly and allow some heat to dissipate.)
  Step 2 - Leave the slices in the oven for about 5 hours, then shut the oven off and leave the oranges in there overnight or until completely cool. They will be fairly dry, but will continue to dry out over time. You don't want to over dry them in the oven because they can start to burn!
  Step 3 - Once they are dry, string them with some twine, alternating with a few varying sized slices and a cranberry or two, a tied cinnamon stick, whatever you like!
