Super B Tablets

Super B is a comprehensive B Vitamin complex contains all eight essential energy-boosting B Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12). It features Orgen-FA, a natural folate source derived from lemon peels, and methycobalamin, a more bioavailable source of B12. Combined with Nutmeg essential and bioavailable chelated minerals such as magnesium, manganese, selenium, and zinc, Super B not only assists in maintaining health energy levels, but it also supports mood and cardiovascular and cognitive function!

B Vitamins are essential to health and well-being and each B Vitamin performs a unique and separate function in the body. B Vitamins are not stored in the body, so supplementation is critical.

WHO SHOULD USE SUPER B?
  • Anyone under stress, as it depletes B vitamins in our bodies
  • Anyone who battles candida. Some believe a lack of it causes overgrowth.
  • Anyone who needs energy. It nourishes our adrenals and combats fatigue.
  • Anyone struggling mentally and emotionally, a deficiency can be linked to many anxious, exhausted, dark feelings and thoughts.
  • Anyone who struggles with anemia, is pregnant, or doesn't eat a strong whole food diet. While we DO NOT need folic acid which is all over our processed foods and grains, we do need folate which is what you will find in this whole-food supplement.
Create a daily stress-less protocol:

  • Take 2 Super B Tablets in the morning (or one in the morning and one around noon).
  • Apply the Adrenal Love (Stress Recovery) Serum over the lower back morning and evening. To a 4 oz glass dropper bottle, add:
  • Roll EndoFlex over the front of the throat (thyroid) and lower back (adrenals) morning and evening. Simply add a roller top to the bottle!
  • Drink 2-4oz of NingXia Red daily. Make it fun! Mix it up with some kombucha, coconut water and/or sparkling water.
  • Consider adding ProgEssence Plus Serum to your routine.
For more whey we love Super B Tablets, check out the Super B Supplement Spotlight blog post.

PanAway Spotlight - Feb 2024

PanAway Spotlight


PanAway® essential oil blend is one of Young Living's most popular products, and for good reason. This blend is a mix of  four powerful essential oils - Wintergreen, Helichrysum, Clove, and Peppermint - that help soothe and stimulate muscles after exercise or anytime you need a little support!

PanAway includes the naturally occurring constituents methyl-salicylate and menthol, which work to support and relieve tired muscles and tendons. The cooling sensation of PanAway makes it the perfect companion for an active lifestyle. Apply it topically after your workouts to feel completely refreshed!

One of our favorite PanAway oil uses is to combine it with V-6™ Vegetable Oil Complex and apply it to the chest first thing in the morning for an uplifting boost from its crisp scent. PanAway oil can be used to make a soothing bath soak by adding 10 drops to a cup of Epsom salt; the cooling oil mixed with warm water turns your bathroom into a spa! Whether your favorite PanAway essential oil uses are post-workout or simply relaxing from a long day at the office, this complex and cooling oil is the perfect way to give tired muscles a treat.

PanAway at a Glance

  • Offers a refreshing, stimulating aroma
  • Soothing to fatigued muscles after physical activity
  • Provides a cooling sensation when applied to shoulders, neck, and scalp
  • Stimulating blend of Wintergreen, Helichrysum, Clove, and Peppermint essential oils
Key Ingredients

The essential oils in PanAway work differently than conventional over the counter muscle rubs. Conventional products contain counter-irritants that simply make the skin tingle so the brain forgets the underlying pain.

Essential oils work differently. They can penetrate through the skin, into the cells of the muscles and tendons to support the body through pain and healing. Each oil in PanAway plays a specific role in supporting the body.

  • Wintergreen - supports the body's response to injury and inflammation, supports pain reduction
  • Helichrysum - supports the body through inflammation, muscle spasms and pain
  • Clove - a powerful antioxidant that helps the body during pain and also supports immune system
  • Peppermint - main constituent is menthol, which may work as an analgesic and is highly effective at penetrating through the skin, allowing the essential oils to reach the areas of need.
Key Constituents
*Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties

  • Methyl-salicylate - a naturally-occurring compound that may have analgesic properties; synthetic methyl-salicylate is commonly used in many over the counter preparations for minor aches and pains.
  • Menthol - has been studied for is use to support healing and relief of minor aches and pains 
  • Gamma-curcumene, Eugenol
PanAway & Emotions

Did you know that all of our essential oils have stress relieving benefits - even if they don't have a special name? It's easy to remember to grab the Joy, Stress Away, or Peace & Calming when it comes to dealing with less “physical” issues, but when you put together a list of your must have basic oils, no matter what they are, they will all be supporting your emotional functions as well.

One of the heavy-hitters in the round up of basic oils is PanAway. It smells like root beer. You probably keep it on hand for physical relief, muscle soreness, cooling massage after a workout, but get ready - this blend also helps us to release…

Exhaustion. Sign me up for a vat!!!

We all know that pain is exhausting, and emotional pain can be crippling when it is pushed down for a long time without being addressed. Our connective tissue and muscles are directly affected by this type of repressed stress.

When you use essential oils, you are not simply addressing a surface issue of “something hurts”. Essential oils interact with our brain and our nervous system. As we intentionally work on managing stress, we begin to CHANGE the instructions and signals our brain is sending out for our survival and protection.

If you find yourself exhausted, it may be time to have a talk with inner you. What is swimming around in there, unanswered, unheard, unfelt. Using PanAway can be a great way to start releasing some of that deep pain and/or exhaustion.

Daily Habits with PanAway

Combine PanAway with V-6™ Vegetable Oil Complex and use it with massage after physical activity for a cool, stimulating sensation.

Apply it to your neck and shoulders in the morning with V-6 for an uplifting, refreshing aroma.

Apply it to the bottoms of feet and calves for a relaxing massage. This is especially wonderful after standing or walking all day!

Combine 1 drop of PanAway with 4 drops of V-6 and rub it into your scalp and the back of your neck for an invigorating massage.

Combine 1 cup of epsom salt and 5 drops of PanAway and pour into hot water for a relaxing and refreshing detox bath. Optional companion oils: Copaiba, Frankincense, Oregano, Aroma Siez 

Make a ‘Head On' roller for head and neck tension. 
  • 10 mL roller bottle
  • 20 drops PanAway
  • Optional: 10 drops each Lavender, Copaiba, & Frankincense
  • Carrier oil of choice
Make a ‘Release' roller for emotional exhaustion

Deep Relief Roll-on Spotlight - Dec 2023

Deep Relief Roll-on Spotlight


Say hello to our go-to blend for relieving anything that is tired or sore - Deep Relief! This pre-diluted roll-on is soothing, cooling and comforting and so easy to use! This blend features Wintergreen, containing methyl salicylate, and Peppermint, containing menthol, both of which create a cooling, soothing sensation when applied to your skin. It is our absolute favorite for anything that needs relief!

Just a Drop of Deep Relief

  • Calming and soothing for fatigued muscles after physical activity
  • Pre-diluted so you can just open and apply
  • Comes as a roll-on so you can easily apply wherever you need it
  • Provides a cooling sensation when applied to shoulders, neck, and head
  • Helps release tension in the neck and shoulders
  • Has a refreshing and stimulating aroma that soothes stress and tension
The essential oils in Deep Relief work so well when it comes to relieving tension and discomfort in the body. But, they work differently than conventional over the counter muscle rubs. Conventional products contain counter-irritants that simply make the skin tingle so the brain forgets the underlying pain. Essential oils work differently. They can penetrate through the skin, into the cells of the muscles and tendons to support the body through pain and healing. This is a huge win!

Key Ingredients
All nine essential oils in Deep Relief were carefully selected to create this soothing oil's invigorating benefits!

  • Peppermint - This cooling oil's main constituent is menthol, which is soothing and highly effective at penetrating through the skin, allowing the essential oils to reach the areas of need. Peppermint is also invigorating when you're feeling stress and tension.
  • Lemon - High in the immune-supporting constituent limonene, Lemon is cooling to the mind and body.
  • Grand Fir - Tree oils are soothing to both the mind and body, especially in the presence of inflammation. Grand fir supports the body's natural response to pain and injury, so they are great for soothing tired muscles.
  • Clove - This oil is a powerful antioxidant that helps the body during pain, provides relief to joints and muscles, and also supports the immune system!
  • Copaiba - Copaiba is the main fireman, putting out all the fires and soothing the body through times of inflammation and injury. This oil is so calming and relaxing to the body and is one of our favorites even for little ones.
  • Wintergreen - High in natural salicylates, Wintergreen supports the body's response to injury and inflammation, supports pain reduction, and soothes tired and sore joints and muscles.
  • Helichrysum - This oil is a powerhouse. It supports the body through inflammation, muscle spasms and pain, soothes and calms body and mind, and helps the body's natural regeneration processes.
Key Constituents
*Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties

  • Methyl-salicylate - a naturally-occurring compound that may have analgesic properties; synthetic methyl-salicylate is commonly used in many over the counter preparations for minor aches and pains.
  • Menthol - has been studied for is use to support healing and relief of minor aches and pains 
  • Limonene, Eugenol, and Beta caryophyllene 
Deep Relief & Emotions

Did you know that all of our essential oils have stress relieving benefits - even if they don't have a special name? It's easy to remember to grab the Joy, Stress Away, or Peace & Calming when it comes to dealing with less “physical” issues, but when you put together a list of your must have basic oils, no matter what they are, they will all be supporting your emotional functions as well.

One of the heavy-hitters in the round up of basic oils is Deep Relief. It is amazing for physical relief, muscle soreness, and a cooling massage after a workout, but get ready - this blend also helps us to release…

  • Exhaustion. Sign me up for a vat!!!
  • We all know that pain is exhausting, and emotional pain can be crippling when it is pushed down for a long time without being addressed. Our connective tissue and muscles are directly affected by this type of repressed stress.
  • When you use essential oils, you are not simply addressing a surface issue of “something hurts”. Essential oils interact with our brain and our nervous system. As we intentionally work on managing stress, we begin to CHANGE the instructions and signals our brain is sending out for our survival and protection.
  • If you find yourself exhausted, it may be time to have a talk with inner you. What is swimming around in there, unanswered, unheard, unfelt. Using Deep Relief can be a great way to start releasing some of that deep pain and/or exhaustion.
Daily Habits with Deep Relief

  • Apply it to your neck and shoulders in the morning for an uplifting, refreshing aroma and to soothe tension and stress.
  • Apply it to the bottoms of feet and calves for a relaxing massage. This is especially wonderful after standing or walking all day!
  • Combine 1 cup of epsom salt and 5 drops of Deep Relief (just pop out the roller top and use a dropper to get some of the oil!) and pour into hot water for a relaxing and refreshing detox bath.
  • Optional companion oils: Copaiba, Frankincense, Oregano, Aroma Siez 
  • Use on the temples, back of the neck, and shoulders for head and neck tension. 
  • Keep a bottle in your gym bag to use before and after a workout to soothe tired muscles.
  • Use alongside hydration and massage for when you experience intense tension in your temples and forehead.
  • Diffuse to refresh, renew and release deep set feelings of Exhaustion!
DIFFUSE
Diffusing is a wonderful health habit! Our diffusers are running 24/7 with blends that are supportive of individual needs or systems. Try some of these great combinations and enjoy the refreshing scent of Deep Relief! 

  • Morning Sunshine - Deep Relief, Lemon, Tangerine
  • Relieve It - Deep Relief, Copaiba, Lavender
  • Frosted Forest - Deep Relief, Northern Lights Black Spruce, Wintergreen

En-R-Gee Essential Oil Spotlight - Oct 2023

En-R-Gee Essential Oil Spotlight


En-R-Gee in a bottle! This stimulating blend combines Rosemary, Juniper, Lemongrass, Nutmeg, Balsam Fir, Clove, and Black Pepper to keep you invigorated and energized throughout your day.

Just a Drop of En-R-Gee

  • Has a lively, inspiring, powerful aroma that's a great way to start the day
  • The spicy-pine aroma hat can give you that natural boost when you need it most
  • Works as an aromatic pick-me-up in the afternoon
  • Helps pull us up from emotional exhaustion
  • Works well with other adrenal supporting oils like Nutmeg
En-R-Gee is a daily favorite for many reasons, but it is especially a favorite during times of stress. (Because stress and energy just might be related…) En-R-Gee has oils that are alerting and stimulating, help the physical body rebalance our adrenals, and help us release emotions that are weighing us down!

En-R-Gee & the Adrenals

The adrenal glands are small organs that sit on top of the kidneys. They maintain and boost our energy, kind of like a car shifting into first, second, and third gear as we go about our day. They also help our body survive during times of stress. Since many of us live in a state of constant stress, they wear down quickly.

Our adrenal glands aren't meant to always be firing. They are there to jump in when needed and not be running the whole show. But excessive caffeine, lack of sleep, emotional stress, demanding schedules, hormonal imbalance, diet, alcohol abuse, and always pushing ourselves to the max can damage the adrenals to cause them to fatigue. This pushes us into a ‘survival mode' both physically and emotionally.

  • Are you in survival mode?
  • Are you only giving yourself the leftovers?
  • Do you put off taking care of your body and mind?
  • Do you only pour out without nourishing yourself?
So many people are in survival mode. Hormones are out of whack and emotions are bottled up. Despite caring for those around them, they feel isolated. En-R-Gee can help us physically restore and nourish our adrenal system, release the emotion of isolation, and help instill a sense of connectedness.

  • Put some En-R-Gee on your wrists and in the diffuser while you journal or internally process. Write about what seems to zap the energy right out of you. Can you pinpoint the roots of what makes you exhausted, overwhelmed, full of dread, or frustrated about your day?
  • Next, start to write about the kind of person you dream of being. The attitudes, the priorities, the joy, whatever it is. Visualize it. 
  • Continue daily, even if you don't get to journal. You can process this internally 24/7, the body knows how to work with whatever you give it!
We use these oils daily and in conjunction with supplements and good health habits. Oils are not a one time "quick fix"! Using them daily and consistently is when you will be able to see support and results!

At a Glance Usage Guide
Want the cliff notes version of which eucalyptus oil to use? We've got you covered!

  • Wanting some respiratory TLC → Any of them!
  • Cleaning and laundry needs → Any variety, though we like Eucalyptus Radiata for its crisp, clean aroma
  • Creating a spa-like atmosphere → Eucalyptus Blue
  • Little ones need some help → SniffleEase or Eucalyptus Blue
  • Soothing muscles and joints → Eucalyptus Globulus
  • Needing a little immune support → Eucalyptus Radiata
En-R-Gee & Emotions

En-R-Gee is also great for the emotion of Exhaustion – for feeling like you just don't have the oomph to do the things you really want to do. En-R-Gee can be a wonderful tool for helping our bodies catch up with what our minds and hearts want to do!

Every single one of the oils in this blend contain stimulating compounds to help energize our cells and wake them up! AND a couple are high in sesquiterpenes, which help with focus and clarity. So if you are a go-getter, need more balance and energy, En-R-Gee can help you stay emotionally on track! 

Key Ingredients

  • Idaho Balsam Fir - This woodsy, grounding oil has an empowering aroma that calms the mind and body to help us focus on what truly matters and work towards our goals
  • Nutmeg, Clove and Black Pepper - These spice oils have an energizing aroma that helps us stay alert and focused, plus these oils are helpful to the adrenal system which is often on overload when we are exhausted! Clove is especially high in antioxidants, which help to decrease physical damage to cells that often leaves us with no energy reserves.
  • Rosemary - This herbaceous oil is soothing to our emotions and stimulating to our minds and bodies so that we can stay on track emotionally and find balance when we need that extra get-up-and-go. Rosemary is also very soothing to the cardiovascular system!
Full Ingredients List

Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary) leaf oil, Juniperus osteosperma (Juniper) oil, Cymbopogon flexuosus (Lemongrass) oil, Myristica fragrans (Nutmeg) kernel oil, Abies balsamea (Balsam Canada) needle oil, Eugenia caryophyllus (Clove) bud oil, Piper nigrum (Pepper) fruit oil

Key Constituents
Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them specific health-supporting properties

  • Alpha-pinene - a powerful antioxidant, some studies have shown alpha-pinene to support the body through inflammation and to help calm the mind.
  • Eucalyptol - eucalyptol has a distinctive, fresh aroma that has a calming effect on the user when applied in aromatherapy. Research shows that eucalyptol may have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and neuroprotective effects. It may also act as a bronchodilator, supporting airway opening. 
  • Camphor - known for its medicinal aroma, camphor has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries for its cleansing properties and was used as a fumigant during the plague era. This constituent may provide antibacterial anti-inflammatory and skin supporting properties.

  • I don't feel like this oil is talked about enough! I've started applying En-R-Gee to my feet, or inhaling it, when I'm feeling distracted or tired.  It helps me maintain focus and I really do notice a difference in my energy levels.  - Whitney F.
  • I love using En-R-Gee over my adrenals daily with endoflex on my neck. - Sabrina Y.

Stress Away Essential Oil Spotlight - Sept 2023

Stress Away Essential Oil 

Blend Spotlight


Stress Away is your vacation in a bottle - convenient and ready to go with you to the grocery store, school, work, or wherever you need to pretend you're in a beach chair sipping something cold and watching the waves!

Studies show that stress is at the root of more health problems and diseases than we realize and learning to use tools that help us to relax and release negative emotions increases our daily quality of life. Our relationships, future, and health depend on it.

Stress Away at a Glance
  • Has a soothing, exotic aroma
  • Can be diffused or enjoyed aromatically to create a luxurious, spa-like ambiance at home
  • Makes a great addition to your favorite skin, hair, and body care products
  • Has a well-rounded and relaxing aroma, making it great to use as a personal fragrance
Background

Stress Away, a D. Gary Young proprietary blend, brings aromas from around the world to create an on-the-go getaway just for you. It's this distinct mix of vanilla and lime that gives Stress Away its unique and exotic aroma. Stress Away also includes Copaiba, which has a history of beneficial properties in topical application when applied to tired muscles; Lavender, with its peaceful, and calming scent that comes from a few of Young Living's farms located in Utah, Idaho, and France; and Cedarwood, known for its comforting, calming aroma.

Stress Away essential oil blend features Copaiba, Lime, Cedarwood, Vanilla, Ocotea, and Lavender for an exotic aroma used for exactly for what the name says and for achieving a happy and positive day.

  • Copaiba - an oleoresin like Frankincense, this oil has been used in folk medicine for years for its ability to support the body's response to inflammation and injury, to soothe and protect the skin, and to calm the nervous system.
  • Lime - known in folklore for its ability to cleanse and renew the spirit, Lime is stimulating to the mind and supports the immune system.
  • Cedarwood - high in sesquiterpenes, this oil helps stipulate the limbic center of the brain (where emotions and memory are processed and stored), supports focus, cognition and memory, stabilizing and grounding. 
  • Vanilla - an oleoresin like Frankincense and Copaiba, Vanilla supports a calm, serene environment, helps elevate mood and stimulate joyful memories, and may help relieve nervous tension.
  • Ocotea - an oil from the cinnamon family, Ocotea supports feelings of completeness, peace and tranquility.
  • Lavender - well known for its ability to calm and soothe, Lavender also helps support focus and mental clarity.
Key Consituents

Constituents are naturally occurring compounds in plants (and therefore essential oils) that give them sprecic health-supporting properties.

  • Beta-caryophyllene - has a unique ability to bind with CB2 receptors which may allow it to support the body's response to inflammation and infection as well as calm the nervous system during times of anxiety and pain. 
  • Alpha-humulene - a versatile terpene constituent that may have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antitumor effects
  • Limonene - known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-stress support, this is a powerful constituent with many health benefits
  • Linalool - may support the body during injury and/or sickness and help relieve stress 
Stress Away & Emotions

Stress Away has such a gentle, loving aroma that can be used anytime you need a little extra peace and tranquility. Copaiba and Cedarwood specifically are supportive for releasing stress and tension, and the other oils in this blend have very specific ways to support the body physically and emotionally during times of stress!

Info from Courtney Crtiz: 
  • Lime - Known for its ability to uplift, calm, relieve anxious feelings, and even cleanse the liver...which just might be struggling with lots of, you guessed it, stress, anger, criticism.
  • Copaiba - Powerful in its strength to reduce inflammation. What does stress cause? Inflammation. The root of boatloads of our illness and pain.
  • Cedarwood - Grounding and promoting rest and peace, this is one we can use to reset our patterns and ruts. Maybe the ones causing us stress because the same repeated actions won't change the situation?
  • Ocotea - What do we do when we're stressed? Eat, compensate, raise our blood sugar levels so we feel a high? But our friend here helps us to keep that balanced and in check for a more even response.
  • Lavender - We've discussed this Wonder Woman disguised in Grandma's cap. She is literally doing it all, working on that blood pressure, the self-loathing, the anxiousness.
  • Vanilla - Just yum. And also known for its own ability to support mental health!

ImmuPro Spotlight - August 2023

ImmuPro Spotlight

ImmuPro is one of our favorite ways to support the immune system! These chewable tablets contain Ningxia wolfberry (a potent antioxidant), zinc, and selenium along with melatonin for restorative rest when you aren't at your best. Grab these tablets when you feel your defenses going down - or anytime you want a little boost!

Immupro at a Glance
  • Provides immune system support through a mixture of Ningxia wolfberry polysaccharides and a mushroom powder blend
  • Contains Orange essential oil, which is high in limonene
  • Contains chelated minerals, including zinc and selenium, which emerging science suggests are more easily absorbed by the body for proper immune function
  • Delivers melatonin, which encourages restful sleep by promoting the body's natural sleep rhythm
  • A convenient way to support the immune system and healthy sleep
Background

ImmuPro tablets are jam packed with some of the most powerful plant-powered immune stimulants around – the wolfberry, organic reishi, maitake, and agaricus blazei mushroom powders, zinc, and selenium. These ingredients deliver powerful antioxidant support to help reduce the damaging effects of oxidative stress from free radicals. Trace minerals like zinc, copper and selenium are essential for proper immune function. Plus, ImmuPro tablets include melatonin, a naturally occurring hormone that our bodies already produce that is great for immune support and sleep. Melatonin levels steadily decrease with age and in times of stress and is important as it encourages restful sleep by promoting the body's natural sleep rhythm.

Like all of Young Living's supplements, ImmuPro is enhanced with essential oils to help the body to assimilate and absorb the nutrients in the supplements, which is so amazing! ImmuPro contains Orange essential oil, which is rich in limonene. Limonene has been extensively studied for all of its health benefits from immune support to relaxation.

Key Ingredients
  • NingXia Wolfberry - packed with antioxidants and micronutrients; helps repair and prevent oxidative damage from free radicals
  • Reishi, Maitke, Mycelia mushroom powders - provide immune system support, help with memory, focus, brain health & also supports gut health (a key component of a healthy immune system!)
  • Melatonin - a naturally occurring hormone that the body makes to promote restful sleep, which is essential for immune function - especially in the presence of immune invaders
  • Orange essential oil - high in antioxidants and limonene, which support the immune system, bolster the natural immune response, and repair and prevent free radical damage
How to Use ImmuPro
  • Take 1 chewable tablet once daily at bedtime.
  • Use when you feel that telltale twinge in the back of your throat or any time you start to feel your defenses needing reinforcements.
  • Use before and during travel to support the immune system (airplanes, international travel, etc.)
