Cinnamon Bark Oil Spotlight - Oct 2021


Cinnamon Bark

Oil Spotlight for October

Cinnamon Bark essential oil has a warm, spicy aroma that is inviting, especially during the Autumn Season.


Cinnamon Bark cleanses the air, creates a warming sensation on the skin when applied topically, and contains antioxidants that help support the immune system and general wellness. Overall, it is a staple essential oil for every household.

Each month we focus on using an oil everyday to help us in accomplishing our goals. Join us in choosing a method of application and simply getting this oil on and around you every day in October. My goal is to use up an entire bottle for my personal use.

Cinnamon Bark AT A Glance

  • Has a warm, spicy, inviting aroma
  • Eliminates orders when used aromatically
  • creates a warming sensation when applied topically
  • Has the highest known ORAC value
  • Strong antioxidant
  • Part of the Botanical Family Lauraceae (Laurel family)
Native to Sri Lanka, Ceylon cinnamon, or true cinnamon, is a tall leafy bush that produces fragrant bark and leaves. A member of the laurel family, it is well know the world over as an aromatic culinary spice. Cinnamon Bark essential oil is steam distilled from the inner bark of the tree and has a warm, spicy aroma that evokes memories of the holidays when diffused.

Cinnamon Bark Vitality contains antioxidants and may provide immune and general wellness support when taken as a dietary supplement.

Note: Cinnamon Bark and Cinnamon Bark Vitality are the same essential oil, simply labeled differently to comply with FDA standards.

Key Constituents - Cinnamaldehyde


Cinnamon is loaded with powerful antioxidants, such as polyphenols. Antioxidants are a huge bolster to health since so much of our modern life can create oxidative stress in the body. In a study that compared the antioxidant activity of 26 spices, cinnamon wound up as the clear winner, even outranking "superfoods" like garlic and oregano!

Antioxidants also help support the body's response to inflammation, which plays a role in almost all chronic diseases. Cinnamon can also support healthy cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure levels - making it a wonderful tool for our health.

Check out these references:

Daily Habits with Cinnamon Bark

Dilute Cinnamon Bark with V-6 Vegetable Oil Complex and massage it on your feet for a warming massage that supports healthy circulation and tired muscles.


Add Cinnamon Bark to a daily Wellness Roller and use over the spine and lymph nodes daily. To a 10 mL roller, add:
  • 10 drops each Cinnamon Bark, Oregano, Frankincense, Lemon and RC or Raven
  • Fill with a carrier oil of choice
Add a couple drops of Cinnamon Bark to your favorite perfume roller for a warm, spicy undertone:
  • Joy + Tangerine + Cinnamon Bark
  • Jasmine + Neroli + Stress Away + Cinnamon Bark
  • Ylang Ylang + Lavender + Tangerine + Cinnamon Bark
Uses for Cinnamon Bark Vitality: 
  • Add a drop of Cinnamon Bark Vitality to your daily NingXia Red for an extra boost.
  • Elevate your fruit smoothie or green drink with a drop of Cinnamon Bark Vitality and benefit from its antioxidant properties. 
  • Add some spice to your coffee or tea. Add a drop or two of Cinnamon Bark Vitality to coffee grounds before brewing or add a drop to honey before stirring into warm tea or water. 
  • And you can use Cinnamon Bark Vitality in your baking recipes in place of ground cinnamon.
  • Take Cinnamon Bark Vitality as a dietary supplement to help support a healthy immune system.
Drop Cinnamon Bark oil onto pinecones, garlands, and other seasonal decor to create a simple passive diffuser.

Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte:
  • 1 cup organic coconut or almond milk
  • 1.5 tbsp organic pureed pumpkin
  • 1 tbsp organic vanilla extract
  • 2-3 tbsp raw organic honey (optional)
  • 1 drop Cinnamon Bark Vitality essential oil
  • a pinch of nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup strong coffee or expresso (already brewed)
  • a pinch of cocoa powder
  • coconut whipped cream (optional)
    Combine milk, pureed pumpkin, and raw organic honey in a saucepan over medium heat until the coconut milk is bubbling and steaming. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour into the bottom half of a coffee cup, then pour in the coffee or espresso on top. Garnish with a dollop of coconut whip cream and a sprinkle of cacao powder.

DIFFUSE

Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil

Cinnamon Bark is a staple of autumn scent. Diffuse the soil with Nutmeg, Clove, Ginger, Cardamom, Tangerine, Vanilla, Thieves or a tree oil for a warm, welcoming aroma!
  • Autumn Breeze: 3 drops Orange, 3 drops Cinnamon Bark, 2 drops Northern Lights Black Spruce, 1 drop Clove and 1 drop Nutmeg
  • Coffee Shop: 4 drops Stress Away, 3 drops Cinnamon Bark, 2 drops Tangerine
  • Pumpkin Spice: 3 drops Clove, 3 drops Cinnamon Bark, 2 drops Orange, 2 drops Nutmeg, 1 drop Ginger
Whip up a simple, festive Room Spray:
  • Add 10 drops each Cinnamon Bark and Vanilla
  • And a splash of witch hazel
  • Then fill the rest of a 2 oz glass spray bottle with filtered water.
Drop Cinnamon Bark oil onto pinecones, garlands and other seasonal decor to create a simple passive diffuser.

Add a couple of drops of Cinnamon Bark to your favorite perfume roller for a warm, spicy undertone.
  • Joy + Tangerine + Cinnamon Bark
  • Jasmine + Neroli + Stress Away + Cinnamon Bark
  • Ylang Ylang + Lavender + Tangerine + Cinnamon Bark
Make a Wellness Roller. To a 10 mL roller bottle, add:
  • 10 drops each: Cinnamon Bark, Oregano, Clove, Frankincense, Lemon, and RC or Raven
  • Fill with a carrier oil of choice
  • Roll over the spine and lymph nodes morning and evening.
Use Cinnamon Bark for emotional support!
  • Cinnamon Bark is a wonderful tool for when you feel easily annoyed or when you feel the need to act a part or fake something. Often we suppress or play a role in new situations, during holiday times and/or around family. Its not a coincidence that the fall and winter months have us gravitating towards warm aroma like Cinnamon Bark. You can use this oil to help you move out of a fake role and more into the true version of you. 
  • Simply sit in a quiet place, add a drop of Cinnamon Bark to your palms, rub in well, then cup your hands over your nose and breathe deeply. Repeat a positive affirmation, a personal truth or scripture. Sit and breathe until you feel something shift. You can repeat this process as often as necessary.
For more on this fall staple, check out the Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil Spotlight.
Clove Essential Oil

Add Clove to your Daily Wellness Roller:
  • Clove essential oil is an antioxidant powerhouse! Clove has an ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) value of 1,078,700 μTE/100 g, meaning it provides your body with a large supply of antioxidants to support health and healing. (To give you an idea of what this means, oranges are created 750 μTE/100 g and kale is rated at 1,770 μTE/100 g.)
  • Clove is a key ingredient in the Thieves essential oil blend because of its incredible immune support properties.
Give your muscles (and immune system) some TLC with a Clove & Epsom salt bath:
  • Add 2 drops Clove to 1 cup Epsom salt and then add to your bath water (ideally, let the water run into and over a cup containing the salts) for a relaxing soak. Sit back and soak up all the health benefits of Clove essential oil.
  • Don't want the full body experience? Cut the recipe in half and add the salts to warm water to a large bin for a simple, wonderful foot soak.
Diffuse this perfect fall spice oil:
  • Fall Festival: 3 drops Thieves, 3 drops Orange, 2 drops Clove, 3 drops Grapefruit
  • Mulled Cider: 4 drops Christmas Spirit, 3 drops Clove, 3 drops Grapefruit
  • Spiced Chai: 3 drops Vanilla, 2 drops Cardamom, 2 drops Cinnamon Bark, 2 drops Clove
  • Autumn Forest: 3 drops Patchouli, 3 drops Bergamot, 3 drops Clove, 2 drops Pine
Dilute and massage Clove onto tired muscles and feet for a lovely warming sensation that also gives your body some TLC.
Nutmeg Essential Oil Blend

This oil is high in the constituent sabinene, alpha-pinene and beta-pinene, making it a wonderful option to support the digestive system, to protect your liver, to help maintain healthy circulation and provide the adrenals with the support they need on a daily basis.

Make a cozy linen spray: To an 8 oz spray bottle add:
  • 5 drops each of Nutmeg and Clove
  • 10 drops Bergamot or Orange
  • 1 cup of filtered water
  • and a splash of witch hazel
    Spray anywhere and everywhere.

  • 1-2 capfuls Thieves Household Cleaner
  • 10 drops each of Orange and Cinnamon Bark 
  • 5 drops each of Ginger, Clove, Nutmeg
  • Fill the rest of a 16 oz glass spray bottle with water
Did someone say stress? Nutmeg is your stress response oil. Make this Stress Recovery (aka Adrenal Love) Serum:

25 drops Nutmeg
20 drops each of Clove, Frankincense, and Rosemary
Fill the rest up with Castor oil

  • Pumpkin Spice: 4 drops Orange, 3 drops Cinnamon Bark, 2 drops Nutmeg, 1 drop Ginger
  • Baking Pie: 4 drops Stress Away, 3 drops Cinnamon Bark, 2 drops Nutmeg
  • Calm & Collected: 4 drops Lavender, 3 drops Nutmeg, 3 drops Frankincense
Patchouli Essential Oil

Use Patchouli as a natural alternative to conventional deodorant. Either apply directly, dilute with jojoba/V-6 oil in a roller ball and apply after using apple cider vinegar to cleanse the area.

Add Patchouli to your skincare routine - its great for winter skin with this 'Happy Hippie' Body Butter:
  • 1/2 cup solid coconut oil (use refined for less coconut scent)
  • 1/2 cup shea butter (use refined for less scent)
  • 20 drops each of Patchouli, Tangerine, and Sacred Mountain
  • Whip coconut oil and shea butter with a handheld or stand mixer until light and fluffy, slowly mix in essential oils until combined. Store in a glass jar with an airtight lid.

Mineral Sunscreen Ditch and Switch - June 2021

Mineral Sunscreen

June Ditch & Switch


As the gatekeepers of our home we have such a great opportunity to bring in healthy products for ourselves and families! 

Join us as we detox our beach bags this month and switch out convention chemical sunscreens for Young Living's Mineral Sunscreen. This switch is a simple one that can have a huge impact on your health and the health of your family.

Chemical Sunscreen
Chemical sunscreens are designed to be absorbed by the op layers of skin as they work in two different ways to help neutralize harmful UV radiation. On one level, it deflects and scatters the sun's harmful rays before they damage skin, while on the other level, they filter the UVA/UVB and convert them into heat, neutralizing them.

Unfortunately, chemical sunscreen may cause skin reactions certain people and can worsen melanoma and rosacea. They also contain one or more of the following active ingredients: oxybenzone, avobenzone, octisalate, octocrylene, homosalate, or octinoxate, each of which carries its own potential for harm. 

Ingredients of Concern
  • Oxybenzone - (sometimes called benzophenone-3) is one of the most commonly-used sunscreen chemicals, it is linked to endocrine disruption, organ system toxicity, contact allergies, and photoallergies, meaning exposure to light is required to generate an allergic response. In fact, the Environmental Working Group (EWG) recommends avoiding oxybenzone because of concerns that this ingredient may disrupt hormones and cause allergic skin reactions. Oxybenzone is also harmful to aquatic life, in 2018 Hawaii banned it to protect coral reefs.
  • Octinoxate - commonly used UV filter that protects from UVB rays, but not UVA rays. It may be listed as OMC, methoxy-cinnamate or ethylhexyl methoxy-cinnamate and is lined to endocrine disruption as well as reproductive toxicity. Researchers have detected octinoxate in breast milk, urine, and blood. Like oxybenzone, this ingredient was targeted in Hawaii's ban, as it harms coral reefs.
  • Homosalate - a common ingredient that absorbs only UVB rays to prevent direct skin exposure. Homosalate is linked to hormone disruption and may also enhance the absorption and penetration of pesticides, including bug sprays, as well as other harmful ingredients found within sunscreen.
Further, a small randomized clinical trial published in May 2019 in the Journal of the American Medical Association reveals that four of these sunscreen chemicals (avobenzone, oxybenzone, otocrylene, and ecamsule) are absorbed into the bloodstream at significantly higher levels than 0.5 nanogram per millimeter (ng/ml). That's far above the amount at which the FDA requires topical medications to undergo safety studies to determine the possible toxic effects.

Mineral Sunscreen
This type of protection relies on two different types of minerals - zinc oxide and titanium dioxide. They work by physically deflecting UVA and UVB rays from getting to the surface of the skin. Because of this, their formulas are naturally a little thicker than chemical versions as they are meant to sit on the skin's surface, rather than absorbing beneath it. Unlike chemical sunscreens, which typically take 20 to 30 minutes to absorb into the skin, mineral sunscreens offer immediate protection - no waiting needed. Mineral sunscreens can also be applied on top of makeup and other skin care products.

Why we love YL's Mineral Sunscreen
  • Contains naturally derived plant and mineral based ingredients, including non-nano zinc oxide, so it's not absorbed into the bloodstream.
  • Available in broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection.
  • Filled with skin-loving essential oils like Helichrysum, Carrot Seed, and Frankincense that put a protective barrier on your skin and help retain the skin's natural moisture while out in the sun.
  • Has a non-greasy, lightweight formula that goes on smoothly (aka no white residue).
  • Stays water and sweat resistant for 80 minutes
  • Carries an official global certification from the National Skin Cancer Foundation and is recommended for daily use to help prevent skin cancer.
  • It is safe for ALL skin types and won't clog pores.
  • It is reef safe! An estimated 14,000 tons of sunscreen go into the ocean each year and most (all chemical based ones) kill coral reefs. It is such a problem that Hawaii passed a bill banning ingredients that harm coral reefs.
What about SPF?
SPF (sun protection factor) is a measurement of sunburn protection. So if your skin would normally burn after 10 minutes in the sun, wearing an SPF 10 sunscreen would theoretically allow you to stay in the sun for 100 minutes (10 x 10) without burning. A higher SPF doesn't always equate to that much more protection. Also, note that SPF is a measure of protection against UVB rays only, and we need protection against UVA rays which is why we want "broad spectrum" sunscreen.
  • SPF 15 blocks 93% of UVB rays
  • SPF 30 blocks 97% of UVB rays
  • SPF 50 blocks 98% of UVB rays
  • SPF 100 blocks 99% of UVB rays
Daily Sunscreen Use & Savvy Minerals
When it comes to the delicate skin on our face, we want to be sure we're protected, especially in the summer sun. Young Living's sunscreen works great as a base underneath your Savvy Minerals by Young Living makeup to offer the SPF boost you want.
  • Wash and prime your face, then apply the SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen all over your face and rub it gently but completely. You may find it helpful to lightly set the sunscreen with a dusting of Diamond Dust before applying the rest of your makeup.
  • Apply the rest of your Savvy Minerals as usual. Or, skip the full face look and tint your sunscreen with your Savvy Foundation. Quick and easy for summer days!
Join us this month as we overhaul our beach bags and choose a healthier sunscreen for ourselves and our families.
