How to Use the Eating for Life Cookbook to Grow Your Young Living Business
"Imagine creating a 5-star dining experience as an adventure—complete with rich tastes and fragrant scents!"
~ Teri Secrest
Oh, what a glorious experience this has been!
Over the past year, I’ve hosted more Cooking Parties than I can count on both hands—and every single one has been nothing short of miraculous.
Picture this: a warm, welcoming kitchen filled with laughter, mouthwatering aromas, and friends lighting up as they cook side-by-side. One person starts talking about how they use Lavender Vitality, someone else jumps in with a story about Peppermint in their water, and suddenly, the whole room is alive with testimonies, questions, and joyful discoveries.
Here’s the best part:I wasn’t teaching.
I was hosting. Loving. Listening. Cooking. Creating beautiful memories.
And something wonderful kept happening…
By the end of the night—no exaggeration—guests were joking about whose next Young Living order would be the biggest!
Yes, really. 💃
Yes, really. 💃
I watched Young Living carts fill up as guests logged in and got more and more excited to try the oils, the recipes, the products—and all the possibilities they had just experienced firsthand and heard about from those around them. Orders doubled and sometimes tripled in volume!
This is the the perfect time to share:
- The beauty of Loyalty Rewards
- The generous Gift With Purchase offers
- The free diffuser for Month 2
- And how simple it is to commit to a 90-day wellness journey
🍽️ So, how can you use the Eating for Life cookbook to grow your Young Living business?
Here’s my best advice: Host a Cooking Party
✨ STEP ONE:
Invite a few friends over and cook a delicious 5-star menu together.
✨ STEP TWO:
Use the Eating for Life cookbook alongside Young Living’s Vitality oils, Einkorn products, and NingXia Red.
✨ STEP THREE:
As you prepare each recipe, share the Nutritive Benefits section for each ingredient—it's right there in the cookbook!
This allows you to educate and inspire your guests without needing to be an expert. The book does the teaching for you, making it easy to highlight how each ingredient supports wellness in a tangible, practical way.

🧺 Hosting Tip: Share the Grocery List!
A fun and inexpensive way to host is to let each person choose a recipe from the menu. Have them bring all of the ingredients for that single recipe that contributes to the full menu. Your guest will love contributing—and it will make the gathering feel more like a team effort! More than that, it will guarantee they show up.
Other ways to spread out the cost:
- Choose a budget-friendly menu, like Week 3: Penne Pesto with Pine Nuts from the cookbook with simple, fresh ingredients
- Use Loyalty Rewards points to grab some of the Young Living products ahead of time
- Get to know your local farmer's market vendors, local growers and ranchers. Sometimes you can find great ingredients at amazing prices.
This isn't your typical class. No slides, no formal teaching -- just aprons on, music up, and spoons in hand! 🌟
Open your home. Open your heart. Open your kitchen.
There’s something powerful that happens when people experience something new together. When people feel seen, nourished, and inspired, they walk away filled—with good food, yes, but also with hope, curiosity, and next steps for their wellness journey.
And yes…
Every Cooking Party should be full of dancing.
That’s a Teri Secrest requirement! 🕺️🎶

Show that you truly care
Before the night ends, take a quiet moment with each guest. Invite them back for a personal Wellness Assessment. These heartfelt one-on-one conversations can spark the biggest transformations.
Someone who was too shy to speak up in a group might now feel ready to share—and you’ll be there to listen with compassion, offer guidance, and recommend the oils and products that can support their journey.The best part.... You don’t have to be an expert!
If you’ve experienced just one breakthrough with essential oils…
If you’ve felt your body respond…
If you’ve shared your story with a friend…
You already know more than most people around you.
