More Information on May 2024’s Gifts with Purchase
1. Lavender Lip Balm, soothes dry lips by harnessing the power of Lavender premium essential oil, along with the powerful moisturizing properties of jojoba oil and vitamin E. It contains clean ingredients like coconut oil, sweet almond oil, wolfberry seed oil, and rosehip seed oil.

2. Patchouli Essential Oil, 15ml, the smell of patchouli can either be appealing or undesirable, depending on your preference. Regardless, this distinct aromatic oil has many benefits. These include promoting healthy skin, enhancing defense and repair, maintaining cellular heath, and offering neurological support related to its sesquiterpene content.
It has traditionally been used in Chinese medicine for gastrointestinal issues. Patchouli has various mechanisms of action including potential gut microbiome support.
Patchouli essential oil contains the naturally occurring constituent patchoulol, which contributes to its earthy aroma. A common base note in perfumes, Patchouli creates a calming and grounding environment when diffused or inhaled and can also be applied topically to moisturize the skin.
3. Rosemary Essential Oil, 15 ml, this oil is most known for how it aids memory, cognitive performance, and is stimulating to the nervous system.
Rosemary essential oil has an invigorating aroma that can be used to create an environment conducive to work or study. It is often included in soaps, fragrances, shampoos, and household cleaners and is a key ingredient in Thieves® essential oil blend.
Expert tip: If you are looking for its energizing properties, you would want to ensure the rosemary chemotype (a species’ dominant constituents) contains higher amounts of 1,8 cineole and monoterpenes.
**Safety Tip: There are some cautionary statements about using rosemary for high blood pressure. This may be true if blood pressure is linked to overstimulation of the nervous system. In this instance, ylang ylang may be a more calming choice to help support your heart health.
4. Progessence Plus™ Serum, made with natural, bioidentical progesterone from wild yam, this product promotes well-being and feelings of relaxation, harmony, and balance. Featuring some of Young Living’s most-loved premium essential oils, including Frankincense, Bergamot, and Peppermint, this plant-based serum features naturally derived ingredients that support the skin’s natural moisture cycle and help nourish and moisturize skin.
Naturopathic and Functional Medicine Safety Feedback: Please note that there are no tests that fully monitor progesterone in the blood or its metabolites in trasdermal applications. Speak to your doctor before using hormones. This is due to the downstream unwanted effects of a potential to impact cortisol and insulin for some, if it sequesters in the tissues. For most, it is very safe. Read more here.
5. Ylang Ylang Essential Oil 15 ml, an alluring essential oil made famous by the perfume industry because of its enticing aroma. Ylang ylang not only has romantic olfactory properties that enhance social connection, it also supports the physical heart. It has been shown to support blood pressure, sooth stress, and calm nervous system tone.
Ylang Ylang essential oil has a sweet, floral aroma that was historically believed to balance yin and yang. A common ingredient in perfumes and personal care products, Ylang Ylang essential oil adds a luxurious and aroma, while also providing benefits to skin and hair.
