December has arrived with a snowy bang for us here in Southern Wisconsin.  We have had more snow here in the past two weeks than we had all of last winter!  I know I am not the norm, but I love the quiet and slowness of winter.  The cold weather and warm food are part of what makes it magical.    

“Kindness is like snow – it beautifies everything it covers.”
– Kahlil Gibran

We hope you have a wonderful Christmas season!  Enjoy some of the treats but make sure to continue to focus on healthy food choices, good sleep and peaceful engagements.  Oil up buttercup!  


Here is one of my favorite recipes that is so fun to make around the holidays.  You can use GF flour or regular.  It was served to us 8 kids by my mom when we were young.  We thought it was a fancy treat as it puffed up in the oven and looked like a magic trick.  In all honesty, she probably made it as a way to make the grocery bill stretch feeding so many of us.  We sprinkled it with powdered sugar but since I do not eat processed sugar anymore, pure maple syrup has been just as good.  Let me know if you try it!  



#YLTip Add a small drop of Christmas Spirit to your envelopes this year to give your cards extra festive cheer!

Thieves Cough Drops Rebrand - I know they are expensive, so use your points to grab two bags to keep on hand when the coughing starts and you need life to continue.  They work, and they are worth every dime!  Really!  
Thieves Cough Drops and the full Thieves product line were recently spotlighted on The Kelly Clarkson Show’s Holiday Product Guide—a major national moment for Young Living and our community.

This feature was secured through Young Living's long-standing relationship with the show’s team, and we’re proud to say that no paid placement was involved. It’s a genuine recognition of the quality, legacy, and trust behind Thieves.

Benefit of being on Loyalty 
These are all the free items given this year in 2025.  
Every year people ask me how I have such an abundance of product and this is why.  I order what supplements and oils I use monthly and get all these freebies to stock or to try if it’s new to me.  
Our oils don’t expire so it creates an abundance.  
Are you taking advantage of Loyalty?



Have you ever thought of purchasing a starter kit and gifting each of the oils to a different person in your life?  Its an inexpensive way to share the gift of health for the people you love.  AND, if they come back and want more, you can sign them up under you and create an income to pay for a car payment to replacing your income.  All while working from home.  Its a beautiful thing.  



Have you seen our new Penguin Diffuser?  He is so adorable for a little one in your life, or, well even the adult in your life that loves Penguins.  Our kids diffusers go through 300 drop tests to make sure they can handle all the little hands that may want to reach out for a hug.  


Do you need a few stocking stuffer ideas?  Don't grab another meaningless gift that will be set aside.  Giving an oil that will help soothe their aching muscles, calm an overactive brain, settle their upset tummy issues, calm that nervous tension or lower that blood pressure and more.  Split the kit and give a gift of health to those you love!  



As you finish your holiday shopping, take note of the Holiday Shipping Deadlines!  

Facts about Young Living Sacred Frankincense you may not know.....
Do you know that Young Living oils are safe for babies and pets too?  All kinds of pets like horses and cats and dogs and yes even goats and cows and then some.
My grand-babies have been slathered with oils, all kinds and many drops since the moment they breathed their first breath.  Yep, I was present at their births in their homes and we put Frankincense on them the minute they were born!  (Literally).  
Why you ask?  
Because Frankincense is the #1 oil for emotional trauma. (It’s traumatic being born) Yep, if you have experienced trauma of any kind, use it daily on the back of your brain stem or on your feet if you don’t like the smell. Do it consistently and daily for a period of several months, just one or two drops and watch what happens to your thinking!  Really! 
It’s also incredible for your immune system.  It’s like having your immune system super charged so yeah, use a drop under your tongue or behind your ears daily as prevention or use several drops when it’s really needed.  
It’s also beautiful for respiratory support.  Y’all get Frankincense in your kit when you start out so drops 3-4 drops on your chest when it needs support every hour with your little bottle of Raven and be amazed.  Consistency is key when your immune system is down.   
It’s also beautiful for your bones!!!  It’s one of the oils you want to go to  when you have a mishap and your bones need support and attention, especially bruising.   
Do you also know that Frankincense has been known for thousands, yes thousands of years, for beauty and skin and an ageless look?   Yep.  It is incredible for those of us who like to age gracefully without a lot of lines or markings on our face!  Put a drop in your moisturizer daily as you apply it to your face and see how many compliments you get after a while!  
It  helps with cellular integrity.   Yep.  You can look that one up in pubmed.gov and there is lots of studies on it with YL Sacred Frankincense.  Only ours is used in those studies.  
It’s also great for when mishaps happen in life, severe or minor and your skin needs some attention.  Yeah, like when I cut my wrist on sheet metal and ummmmm, that was not so fun but Frankincense and Helichrysum was my friend ever hour for a week.  Yes sir, it works 
Young Living is the only, yes ONLY company that is allowed to have Sacred Frankincense from Oman because of the tireless work Gary Young did to form a relationship with the Sultan (yep that is true) and his travels to there 15 times + to be able to build a distillery there and empower the locals the help us with this treasured oil.  There is a whole book about it, and me!    It’s amazing.  If you see this oil anywhere else, it’s a fake!   
It’s also good for babies, before they are born when you rub it on your belly and after they are born and when they are crying and when they are happy and when they are toddlers and teething and when they are confused middle schoolers and especially when they are angry teens to confident college bound, to middle age to old age and I even slathered my brother with Frankincense hours before he died because in the Bible it’s a holy anointing oil.  It’s amazing through all stages of life!  
It’s also wonderful to calm you.  Yes.  Emotional calm, does anyone need that? It’s my number one oil for me for that!  
It’s also amazing for your eyes.  Yes put a drop around the bony part of each eye daily and just be lovely and see your results after a few weeks.  Consistency is key always when you want to experience change.  
So it does so much more but check out Sacred Frankincense in your desk reference because it’s aaaahhhhhmazing!


Have you ever seen such a beautiful gift set?  If you have never purchased Christmas Spirit oil blend, you are missing out.  It evokes a sense of security and peace when diffused throughout the house.  I love to put a drop of this beautiful seasonal oil under my tongue to boost my immune system and because it tastes wonderful.  The soap is a seasonal favorite and move over toxic hand soaps and bring this beautiful soap as a hostess gift.  It will be one of their favorite gifts.  

And this Thieves Gift set?  Its a lovely gift set for a new homeowner, apartment dweller, or even a new mama that wants to have safe products in her home for her sweet babies.  


When you have finished your shopping for the season through your account, you automatically get to enjoy the FREE gifts of the month!  100pv is always for Loyalty members, and this month its Cedarwood.  It is great for luscious thick hair, deep sleep, calming the overactive brain for kids and adults alike, and great for skin blemishes.  A 15 ml is just $13.25 and is one of my favorite oils for our nightly diffusing and my DIY Hair tonic to keep my hair thick and full.  15 drops of Lavender, 15 drops of Rosemary and 15 drops of Cedarwood in a 6 ounce bottle with non-alcohol witchhazel and spray after every shower, style as normal.  Its a game-changer for your hair.

I know daily life feels like a blur, time seems to be going so fast and I am not one for rushing the Holidays but every year in November Young Living has the biggest sale of the year and since I think we are all up for saving money, I am going to share the details of this amazing sale.

I have never had to wait as long as they say!  Grab your Stress Away, put 5 drops on the back of your neck and smell the goodness and drink some great coffee and know you will enjoy the great deals.

Young Living gut health, Christmas Spirit and Seed to Seal!

Young Living gut health, Christmas Spirit and Seed to Seal!
You are receiving this because you are part of our Young Living organization.  This is for education purposes, this is not a solicitation.  

It’s November and the chill has definitely hit the air here in southern Wisconsin.  Whether the weather near you is warm or cold, wellness should always be in your daily routine!  

“Gratitude turns little into enough!”

What is on the menu at your home this month?  Pumpkin Spice or Peppermint?  Are you decorating with Fall leaves or do you have Christmas music already playing through the house?  I personally like the holidays to slow down and enjoy the people I love so I try to make each Holiday last.  My November is filled with Thanksgiving scents and Fall colors and the day after Thanksgiving is for when the tree comes out and the Christmas decorations go up.  It’s always been our tradition and we hope for many more years to come.  


If your local to southern Wisconsin or northern Illinois, come join us on Friday, November 21st for our end of year Holiday Dinner and Oils of the Bible class.  It will be in Salem, Wi, just 8 minutes over the Illinois border and the catered dinner will feature The Polish Plate from Antioch IL.  Cost is $20 per person and includes dinner, festive desserts and drinks.  
Registration below is required by November 13th and space is limited.  Grab a friend and come start the Holiday season with us!  

Are you afraid to use pure essential oils around your pet?  This was sent in by one of our groups members!  

Young Living Oils are safe & well loved 🥰by even our pets 🐈‍⬛! 
Whoever said cats can’t be around oils never met my cat! 😂
She’s pretty possessive 😉

Luna & her YL tube


If you have been around Young Living for any length of time you know that Christmas Spirit oil blend is a winter favorite.  I have made a tradition of diffusing it daily from November through the end of January.  If you know me, I always encourage you to diffuse single oils for cost effectiveness so you can diffuse daily not only to keep your home smelling amazing but for the health benefits of diffusing as well. But when it comes to the holidays I can’t help but diffuse Christmas Spirit.  You can get a 15ml of this seasonal blend during the month of November on Loyalty!    This blend contains Orange oil which is a great inexpensive oil for beautiful skin and sleep.  It’s calming to the mind and the scent evokes a sense of peace.  
It also contains Cinnamon Bark which is known to be the oil of wealth from the orient.  Emperors of China measured their wealth partly with the amount of Cinnamon they possessed.  It’s highly antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal.  And lastly this blend contains Spruce oil to help support the respiratory and nervous system.  It’s anti-infectious and antiseptic and anti-inflammatory.  Its aromatic scent is known to open and release emotional blocks to bring about emotional balance.  
The scent of Christmas Spirit brings about a sense of security.  It’s a beautiful thing all year around.  

Exodus II. This oil may go out of stock quickly.  It only comes around during the Holidays and is known for being protective against virus’.  It is widely used since 2020 for a DIY nose salve to protect you from airborn yuck while traveling or flying.  It can be warm on the skin due to the oils in the blend so it’s recommended to use with a carrier oil unless your using it on your feet.  It is only available on Loyalty this month.  

Evergreen Essence is a winter favorite and won’t be around long. It’s only available for Loyalty orders this month too. 

So how do you use it? Well I’m just gonna recommend applying generously when going in public, at gatherings, when you’re around a lot of people, when you’re going to be hugging lots of people…basically it’s for when you have to people. You pickin up what I’m layin down friends???? 

Our Thieves cough drops are back in stock and before everyone buys up all the bags, use your points and snag yourself a bag and let me know that they aren’t the most effective cough drop you ever bought.  Really, they work.  They don’t suppress your immune system with added sugars and the oils in these gems help attack the germs that are attacking you!  Grab yourself a bag or two from when that nasty cough strikes!  

Do you struggle with gut issues?  Our free products this month with qualifying orders help you with settling that angry gut.  Spearmint is free with any 100pv Loyalty order.  You may think Spearmint is just a flavoring for gum but it’s so much more.  It is known to increase metabolism and is antibacterial, a gallbladder stimulant, digestive aide and is widely used for intestinal disorders, nausea and hepatitis.   I love to add three drops to a capsule and take internally or a drop to my water after or during a meal.  


Digize is our next free oil blend.  It’s free for loyalty or one time shop orders of 200pv.  It is a must have oil for every household.  I can’t tell people enough about this oil.  I don’t like the smell so I always take it in a capsule (5 drops) after a meal when I am feeling bloated or I have eaten one of the foods I have sensitivities too.  My husband personally loves to just rub it on his belly and I do too, but only when I am not going out.  It’s also much needed for food poisoning as well as activated charcoal.  It’s a must have to take 3-4 drops in a capsule 3x a day when traveling out of the country to protect your gut from all the things,  if you know what I mean.  It’s great to rub on the feet of babies that have a hard time digesting formula and right on the bellies of toddlers with tummy aches.  It’s a much needed staple for your household wellness and helps to restore your gut health and not destroy it like antacids or prescriptions.  

Life 9 is free, along with the other two oils when your order is 300pv or more.  Do you think this is just another probiotic?  Let’s look at it a little closer: 

I  take it daily, and love the support it gives for my struggling gut!  I have taken many a probiotic over my lifetime and I have seen the best results with this one, infused with gut supporting essential oils.  

Life 9 contains 17 billion live cultures from 9 beneficial bacteria strains that promotes healthy digestion, supports gut health, and helps maintain normal intestinal function for overall support of a healthy immune system.
What are probiotics?

Probiotics are bacteria that line your digestive tract and support your body's ability to absorb nutrients and fight infection. You have 10 times more probiotics in your gut than cells in your body! Probiotics support immune function and healthy digestion. Did you know that 80% of your immune system is located in your gut? Also our digestive system is the second largest part of our neurological system. That is why the gut is called our second brain. Your digestive system affects every physiological system in your body, even your mental and emotional health.

When a child is born, they already have probiotics in their system, because they are exposed to their mother's bacteria during the time of delivery. This starts a chain of events that causes the infant's GI tract to begin producing good bacteria. Unfortunately as time goes on, the balance of good bacteria to bad bacteria can be thrown off by things such as using prescription meds, especially antibiotics, as well as high carbohydrate diets, drinking chlorinated or fluoridated water and consuming non-organic meats and dairy products that contain antibiotic residues. High sugar intake, eating GMO foods and grains, emotional stress and exposure to chemicals can also throw the gut flora balance off. The way to fix this is to consume probiotic-rich foods and supplements.

Life 9 is specially designed with special delayed-release capsules, a dual-sorbent desiccant, and a special bottle and cap that ensure your Life 9 stays fresh and effective. Each bottle contains 30 capsules, making it easy to use this helpful supplement daily.
Life 9 includes 9 probiotic strains for full-spectrum gut support:
1. Lactobacillus acidophilus
2. Bifidobacterium lactis
3. Lactobacillus plantarum
4. Lactobacillus rhamnosus
5. Lactobacillus salivarius
6. Streptococcus thermophilus
7. Bifidobacterium breve
8. Bifidobacterium bifidum
9. Bifidobacterium longum

Since more than 40 diseases have been linked to bacterial imbalance, we can choose to be proactive and supplement our diets with Life 9 probiotics to keep our gut healthy.

Answering ALL your most common questions about Life 9™!

Q. Why is it suggested to take Life 9™ before sleeping?
A. During sleep digestion is slower which will allow your body to receive the greatest benefit from Life 9™.

Q. Can children use Life 9™?
A. Yes, both children and adults may benefit from Life 9™ probiotic.

Q. Can I take Life 9™ while pregnant?
A. Yes, taking probiotics from food sources and supplements is considered safe. Young living recommends consulting with your doctor or midwife before taking it.

Q. How can you ensure effective gastric bypass?
A. In order to ensure Life 9™ is assimilated as intended we sourced probiotic strains that are tolerant to acid and utilized a delayed-release capsule designed to withstand gastric juices ensuring product efficacy.

Q. How is the adhering ability (adhering to the intestine walls) determined in Life 9™?
A. The strains chosen for Life 9™ were chosen for their ability to adhere properly to the walls of the intestines. While other companies may choose to use lower cost alternatives, Young Living® only uses the finest quality ingredients and products and will settle for nothing less.

Q. How many cultures are in Life 9™?
A. There is a minimum of 17 billion CFUs (colony forming unit) in Life 9™ at the time of manufacture.

Q. Does Life 9™ contains 17 billion live cultures per capsule or in each bottle?
A. Life 9™ ™ contains at least 17 billion live cultures per capsule at the time of manufacture.

Q. How can you assure me that the strains in Life 9™ are “live”?

A. The bacteria strains in Life 9™ have been freeze dried, which means that they have been frozen in suspended animation. When you take a capsule of Life 9™, the bacteria become exposed to water, which in turn, reanimates them. Once they reach your gut, they are living bacteria.

Q. How do I know that 17 billion live cultures are enough for me?

A. Probiotic supplements in the market offer a range from 1 billion to 10 billion strains. The amount of strains needed by an individual varies according to one’s previous conditions and current health. Life 9™ offers at least 17 billion live cultures to ensure everyone can benefit from taking it. Although the amount sounds high, probiotics are safe and one cannot be harmed by taking extra.

Q. Why isn’t Life 9™ refrigerated before opening, like most of the probiotics in the stores?

A. Life 9™ is vacuum sealed and packaged to provide optimal protection (glass bottle, plastisol lined metal lid, delayed release capsule, and desiccant). This packaging protects the strains during shipping conditions as well.
It is recommended that you refrigerate Life 9™ after opening.

Ningxia red >>> coffee! ☕️

We often reach for coffee when we’re tired, stressed, or needing that quick boost. But the truth? 

Coffee’s “pick-me-up” often comes with a crash. Caffeine forces the body into overdrive, depletes minerals, taxes the adrenals, and leaves you needing more just to feel “normal.” It’s the cycle of temporary energy at the expense of long-term vitality.

Instead of forcing energy, they feed it. The difference?
 ☕️ Coffee stimulates.       🍷 NingXia nourishes.

Where coffee can drain, NingXia replenishes by providing steady, cellular-level energy thanks to natural antioxidants, polysaccharides, and a low glycemic index that doesn’t spike blood sugar.

🚫 Poison or Power?

Coffee’s quick hit may feel good in the moment, but nourishing energy, the kind that supports your whole system, is what truly fuels your day.

Choose nourishment and regeneration over crash and degeneration!


When I was growing up, my mom read health books daily and followed two health channels on the tv. Both were well known health professionals and one was a doctor who had been a western medicine doctor until he became very ill (if I remember correctly it was cancer) and he cured himself with natural protocols and went into natural medicine to treat the whole body and not just the symptoms.  My mom always stressed how important it was to follow people that had walked the walk not just talked the talk.  


Today so many people are talking yet have they endured the tried and true test of the walk  to show their integrity and consistency?  There are so many new natural products.  I know more than a few that seem natural but when you dig deep into their history or look at the individual ingredients of their products, their claims are false. It’s like many of the natural organic food companies that have been loved brands by many but they sold out to Pepsi and Bauer and the list goes on and on. They are now not what they seem.  

Young Living was started by Gary and Mary Young and they have done the research, traveled the globe with their two children to find us incredible plants that have properties that can help our bodies be restored to wellness when we take care of it.  They have never sold out, they are still a one family owned company that believes that integrity and purity matter and that their legacy is important.  

It’s not the packaging.
It’s not the branding.
It’s not the bottle shape or the label.

What sets Young Living apart is what’s inside. 🌿


Purity, transparency, and standards that go far beyond what anyone else dares to do. From seed to seal — that’s the difference you can feel. 💧


Please enjoy this beautiful sway link that describes many of our farms.  You will be blown away!  Share with your peeps.  

Young Living quality is unmatched and no one else has our Seed to Seal.  

Enjoy:

From Dr Scott: 

Myth: All essential oils are created equal.
A growing number of companies have started selling essential oils as they have increased in popularity. Unfortunately, with increased EO popularity comes increased EO adulteration. Demand simply exceeds supply, so suppliers must extend their supply through various methods.

Roughly a year ago I shared GC-MS reports from a colleague that showed many companies are selling adulterated essential oils. Some EO chemists and aromatherapists were quick to dismiss the reports because the analyses used trans-furano-linalool oxide acetate as a marker for lavender EO adulteration. These individuals argued that this constituent was not currently an accepted marker for lavender EO adulteration. However, suppliers are becoming more sophisticated in their adulteration methods meaning that novel constituents will continue to be identified as adulteration markers.

Researchers from one of the most respected botanical and natural product organizations in the world, the National Center for Natural Products Research, performed a detailed chemometric analysis of 72 lavender essential oil samples (13 authentic, 32 commercial, and 27 unidentified) and published the study this year. They found that 23 of the 59 unidentified/commercial samples did not meet the composition of lavender EO according to ISO standards. In addition, they concluded that some of the samples that met the ISO standard contained trans-furano-linalool oxide acetate, which is indeed “an indicator of synthetic compound adulteration in [lavender]EO.” Based on their detailed analysis, the NCNPR determined that between 25% and 90% of commercial lavender EO samples are adulterated.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33831738/

A good rule of thumb is if an oil is far less expensive than others (e.g. $7.99 for a 15 mL lavender EO) it is likely poor quality or adulterated. Purchase EOs from reputable companies that provide a GC-MS analysis of each batch of EO they sell.



Have you ever thought of a Young Living business?  Whether it be to get your product paid for, pay for a car payment or to replace an income like I needed to 14 years ago.  I would love to chat and walk you through how to share the products you love and help you get started.  I have a great video from Richard Bliss Brooke that says it all. Enjoy: https://youtu.be/aEvUOzlh6Ec?si=Xlf3d9xJcevRqdF3

Have a safe and healthy Thanksgiving Holiday!

Young Living Holiday products have launched!

Young Living Holiday products have launched!
You are receiving this email because you are part of our Young Living group!  This is for educational purposes only, this is not a solicitation.  

On Saturday Young Living unveiled their Holiday products for 2025.  Here is the scoop so you can fill your home with healthy scents while you make memories with your family.  


Peppermint is a holiday favorite flavor and I have a recipe that I think many of you will love.  Especially if you are watching your sugars and want a healthier treat for you and your guests.  I have made these for years and I have never yet had anyone not enjoy them!  


When you don’t eat sugar but need a sweet fix, these are a wonderful snack to grab out of the freezer!   This batch doesn’t have the top layer of chocolate on them yet but it’s coming soon after this post and they will be gone quick as a flash after they set!  They are that good! 

Does anyone remember mint peppermint patties?  Yes, this is a healthy version of that but you wouldn’t know it! 

I have been making these for years after they were a gift by a leader and friend of mine Diedra Brinkman McGeever

I actually cut the raw honey in half and they are still oh so sweet! 

Messy batch here but that’s because I was rushing to get to eat them! 😋😋 Enjoy the goodness!  Recipe👇

3 Tbs coconut oil 
1/4 cup raw honey 
1 Tsp coconut flour 
Bag of Lilly’s Chocolate chips or any chocolate of choice 
20 drops YL Peppermint vitality 

Mix the coconut oil, honey, coconut flour and peppermint together until creamy. (I put 10 drops in the filling and 10 drops in the chocolate base! 

Melt chocolate and put small amount into muffin cups, freeze for 10 minutes!  Place small amount of peppermint filling into the cooled cups and top with remaining melted chocolate and freeze for another 10 minutes.  You can store them in the freezer or fridge!  I would double the batch because they won’t last! 😋

Peppermint is oh so good to help support a healthy digestive system, reduce inflammation and sooth tension and discomfort in your belly! 

I will be serving these at our Fall DIY Wellness class at my home next week!  
Come join us at our next monthly gathering in Salem, Wi.  Our Fall DIY event will include making and taking home respiratory bath bombs, a wellness roller and organic elderberry syrup.  Cost is $10.00 per adult.  Registration required, friends always welcome.  We would love to see you.

Have you tried our new Wanderful diffuser?  Young Living has come out with a beautiful Lilac and Green color in this model and now a tan beauty for those who love all things fall.  


If you have been around Young Living for any length of time, you probably have tried Christmas Spirit essential oil blend.  It is probably my most favorite blend and I diffuse it off and on all throughout the year.  The scent is emotionally balancing and evokes a sense of security and comfort  (really, it does) and I personally love to put a drop under my tongue for immune wellness and, well, because it tastes amazing.  We have our Christmas Spirit essential oil for diffusing or in your water and we have always had the hand soap so your guests can enjoy the sweet scent of Christmas when they visit your home.  I love to give it as a gift with a beautiful hand towel and a YL Vanilla Mint lip balm.  These are only available during the holidays!   Try Christmas Spirit and tell me how it made you feel.   I guarantee it will be positive! 



Have you tried our Young Living Lip Balm?  It is the best out there on the market, guaranteed!  


The best $4.25 you will ever spend.  I don’t get chapped lips but I do get these gems for all the below: 

To soothe bug bites 🦟 
To soothe irritated skin 😫
To soothe paper cuts 📝 
To soothe wounds 😣 
To soothe dry cracked skin or lips 👄 
To use as a carrier oil when you have nothing else in your purse 👛 

My daughter used to always have dry lips when she was younger and every other natural lip balm made her lips swell. We tried them all.  Young Livings was all she could use and the only one that worked. 

Keep one with you at all times. Give them away on top of a gift. It is the best thing ever!  

And best of all, there is no harmful ingredients, no mineral oils, no petroleum ingredients.....❤️❤️❤️



💋 Simplified Lip Balm Trio — soft lips, simple ingredients, and scents that make the season sweet!

These nourishing balms come in the same irresistible blends as the hand creams — Vanilla Mint™, Pink Champagne™, and Cinnamon Roll™ — for the perfect pairing of clean, cozy care.

🎄 Great for stockings, teacher gifts, or sharing with friends (keep one, gift two — we won’t tell 😉).

Unlike petroleum-based balms or synthetically flavored versions, these are powered by plant oils and essential oils that love your lips back.

✨ Silky, melt-into-your-lips hydration
 🌿 Wolfberry seed, coconut, and jojoba oils help fight oxidative stress
 🚫 No gluten, parabens, phthalates, petroleum, or synthetic fragrance

Tis the season to swap the waxy sticks for something naturally better.

 Gift soft, healthy lips — without the worry! 💚
Item #49880 | $13.50 | 7PV (for the set) 
One-Time Order Only
No Limits



Have you tried the Simplified line of oils?  They are wonderful for diffusing and I even use them topically.  I recently bought the Water Lilly for myself to diffuse in my office but my husband was complaining of lower back discomfort after working on an outdoor project and so knowing the oils in that blend, I applied 6 drops to his lower back of the Simplified Water Lilly and he was pain free.  All of our oils are multitaskers ❤️



Did you know that the traditional (toxic) candle is dangerous to our health when lit but even dangerous when they AREN'T lit?? 🤯🙅🏽‍♀️😷🚫

That’s right, even an unlit candle can omit chemicals into the air such as false fragrance, formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acrolein… just to name a few. 🤢

And don’t get me started on when you actually light a toxic candle. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Andrew Sledd, M.D (a Missouri pediatrician who specializes in environmental toxicology) found that it only takes ONE HOUR of burning a candle to produce the same harmful effects as smoking just one cigarette. 🚬🚬🚬

🕯️ So as cozy, warm & yummy those candles may smell when you light one up as soon as the weather cools off, they are SO bad for your health as well as your family’s health. 🤕🤧😮‍💨



Enjoy diffusing our Winter Simplified Collection!

Every Monday I send out weekly education to our active customers with tips highlighting one oil, one supplement, one YL hack to help you save money while using quality products and tips on how to use oils for kids!   This week highlighted Detoxzyme.  It’s one of our amazing supplements that is not talked about much.  Check your email for those tips every Monday and reach out if you have questions! 



Remember to oil up and find ways to keep your peace this Holiday season and enjoy the most important things in life, Faith, Family and Friends!

Pumpkin Spice and everything nice! Oils for kids, Fall wellness, digestive support and respiratory!

Pumpkin Spice and everything nice!  Oils for kids, Fall wellness, digestive support and respiratory!
You are receiving this email because you are part of our Young Living group.  This is for educational purposes only, this is not a solicitation. 

Welcome to October!!!!  Some of us are happy to see the cooler temperatures and warm scents of Fall and some of us are still yearning for the beach and warm sun.  Which one are you?  I personally am anxiously awaiting a nice big snowstorm!  I am definitely a winter baby! 


Fall is the perfect time to leaf through a good book. 


A quick reminder, if you need assistance reactivating your account, please reach out.  I would love to help you get started in restoring your health!  


Come join us at our next monthly gathering in Salem, Wi.  Our Fall DIY event will include making and taking home respiratory bath bombs, a wellness roller and organic elderberry syrup.  Cost is $10.00 per adult.  Registration required, friends always welcome.  We would love to see you.  https://getoiling.com/ceciliabruce/events/19497/fall-diy-wellness-event

As we roll into the cooler months, we also roll into the months where we are lacking our natural immune boosting source of the sun.  It is estimated that 80% of Americans are deficient in Vitamin D.  Vitamin D is an important hormone for our immune system and the lack of it leads to many chronic conditions.   Vitamin D is the only vitamin that can be produced by our body when our skin is exposed to sunlight.  You will get the daily vitamin D needed by just being exposed to the sun (40% of your body) without sunscreen for 30 minutes a day.  If you do use sunscreen after that 30 minutes, your skin is your biggest organ and using the most natural sunscreen possible is critical to lessen your toxic exposure.  Did you know that areas where the sunlight is not as prevalent, depression is increased?  Vitamin D from the sun or via supplementation actually reduces depression and anxiety as well as many other health benefits.  I think we all smile more when we are in the sun, so grab a chair and bask in the warm sun while you can and take a good supplement when the clouds are out! 


I am currently experiencing some issues with our education page on Facebook.  I am still posting daily education but I cannot do any live educational videos until the end of October.  I was flagged for posting about our Enzymes.  In order to work around this, I created a short video on my YT channel with some tips that you may enjoy.  If you would like to join us on Facebook for our private education group, send me a message and I will get you added.  You can find the YouTube video here: https://youtu.be/ccaMdHsWFyA?si=8px2DRvDznOjC0Aq

Young Living gives away free products each and every month and gives you cash back up to 25% on each order to redeem for things you love like our oil infused skin care products, personal care products, supplements, oils or even our edible products!  We have so many things to choose from.   Our Loyalty program is never required but at just $50 a month you can earn cash back and for qualifying orders, and every month you get to enjoy the free items too.  You can be on Loyalty and order below $50 a month, but you will not receive cash back points with totals below $50 but you do still save half on shipping.   It is a great way to purchase the items you need and use daily and receive some new products that you may never have tried before for free that are automatically added to your qualifying order.   Building your wellness arsenal is important so when illness strikes, you can grab your oils or supplements you need and start the fight quickly so your immune system can bounce back instead of taking root and having illness lasts longer.   My recommendation is when illness is present, apply oils or take internally hourly for the first 48 hours to see the quickest results.  Let me know if you have more questions. 



This month Young Living has some great freebies that will help you as we enter into Fall.  With the cooler weather, our respiratory system starts to need extra support.  Eucalyptus Globules is one of my husbands favorites and is FREE in October with orders at 100pv.  He puts it on his chest daily when he is working construction jobs to combat all the coughing and hacking he is working alongside at his job and It opens up your airways and oxygenates your lungs.  I personally love to put one drop of any of our breathing oils on my chest when I go for a walk or hike to just breathe easier.  My favorite use is to rub on my tired achy feet to wake them up and make them feel alive and take away the discomfort and to make homemade DIY bath fizzies with Eucalyptus to put in the shower.  They are made for bath lovers but that is not me, so I close off the shower drain and let my feet soak in the goodness while I am taking a shower when I am feeling under the weather.  The oils get into every cell of your body so its a whole body shake up!  Enjoy the recipe below when you receive your free bottle: 

Recipe below:  
2 cups baking soda
1 cup Citric acid (non-gmo on Amazon) 
2 Tbs water
30 drops of your favorite essential oil
Mix together the baking soda and citric acid in a medium-size bowl. In a separate small bowl or bottle, mix together water and essential oil. Slowly add the oil-water mixture a few drops at a time into your dry ingredients, stirring well after each addition (a stand mixer works well for this). When ingredients are thoroughly mixed, tightly pack into 2-inch balls using your hands, a stainless steel cake pop mold, or a cookie scoop. Set on a plate to dry. If necessary, pack the balls again more tightly. Allow to dry for 12+ hours before using.

Have you bought bath bombs from the store?  Worse yet,  at Dollar Tree?  Here is an article worth reading.  We do better when we know better: Lush Bath Bombs Are Not What You Think


Our second FREE oil this month is for all of you who experience seasonal discomfort.  You know, the Spring and Fall sniffling, sneezing, stuffy head and itchy eye time of the year!  Over the many years I have been doing Young Living, we have encouraged customers to use a combination of 5 drops each of Lemon, Peppermint and Lavender in a capsule every four hours or as needed for this lovely seasonal time of year but Young Living has made it even simpler by creating Season Essentials.  One bottle and all the goodness in one place.  5 drops of this amazing blend in a capsule every 4 hours or as needed will assist you with the negative experiences of the seasons changing.  It can be rubbed on a child's feet, or diffused as well for easy breathing.  You will love it!

Our third FREE product this month is Super C. 

Super C Tablets - Why do we need extra Vitamin C in our day (if you are not getting enough in your diet and/or you are going through a time of stress/lowered immune activity)? Because Vitamin C is critical for the health of our bones, circulatory system, nerves, skin, joints, lungs, teeth… are those enough reasons yet? Oh, and Vitamin C stimulates your own body’s natural collagen production, which comes back to helping all those other systems mentioned above. 
Don’t you just LOVE 1.3g of Vitamin C in just 2 tablets of Super C?! Your body can only absorb about 1,000 mg per hour of this water-soluable vitamin so I take one in the morning and one in the evening for a great day’s dose of extra C. This bioavailable super blend of Citrus Bioflavonoids, Rutin and Cayenne supports the circulatory and immune systems, along with our YLEOs of Orange, Tangerine, Grapefruit, Lemon and Lemongrass. This powerhouse combo also gives us Calcium, Zinc and Manganese – key minerals for our immune & structural systems!  So don’t miss out on easily upping this necessary vitamin in your daily regimen with these easy-to-swallow Super C tablets. 
 Super C Chewable - If you have a hard time swallowing tablets or you, like me, enjoy a delicious bite to nosh on at your desk, then reach for your bottle of Super C Chewables! Yum, yum, yum!  Terrific for kids and adults alike with 150 mg of C in each tablet.
They are tart and sweet with a combo of Acerola cherries, Camu camu and Rose hip fruit powders, along with our Orange EO in it to give powerful immune-supporting abilities!  [Acerola cherries aren’t really cherries, but a berry that looks similar but grown on a bush to give us major benefits!]  Vitamin C also helps us better absorb other nutrients, like iron! So if you are working on supporting healthy iron levels, make sure to take extra Vitamin C with your NingXia Red and Multigreens, etc.
Did you know that the “Vitamin C” that you mainly find on store shelves is made from an isolated chemical and created in a lab… and your body knows the difference! The body knows the synergistic effect of the whole fruit or herb and this is what makes a food or supplement bioavailable (the usability of it for your body). So make sure you are spending your money wisely (and get them FREE whenever possible with your loyalty points!) and get the highest quality on the market as you and your body deserve the best!  



Along with our free products monthly, each month Young Living highlights one or two products and makes them available for 15% off.   This month is one of my personal favorites the last few years.  I actually mention it above in my YT video at the top of this email because I love it so much.  I just purchased a second bottle to avoid out of stock issues this winter and to make sure we do not go without.  

Red Cedar Bliss, I have mentioned it in most of my recent blog posts and I will keep talking about it until you all grab yourself a bottle.  We take it internally in capsules (5 drops every 3-4 hours when things are rough) but you can also diffuse it and I think you will fall in love with the scent.


Let's talk about this one for a minute!!     She is probably on your shelf RIGHT NOW, and you need to get her out and USE her!!
Yes, she is a warm, evergreen bliss!  She is a beautiful blend of  Orange, Clove,  Laurus Nobilis,  Helichrysum,  Frankincense, and Western Red Cedar oils, which have a welcoming, harmonizing aroma to ground and uplift the mind. Plus, this blend of oils has some incredible health benefits and is full of multiple constituents that support a healthy immune system and overall wellness!
BUT DID YOU KNOW   Mary Young created this blend to serve a particular purpose?     Since this is on social media, I need to control how I say this  put on your thinking cap and really listen for a minute.
For the last several years, there has been a clear need in today’s world for a re-balancing of the body, blood, and heart.
This is not just in the physical sense but also in the emotional sense.    POWERFUL oils in this bend will open a path of overall healing for mental, spiritual, and physical support.
Each oil in this blend provides constituents that help create channels in our body to clear our “toxins or proteins,” and the key to that is CLEAN BLOOD. 
How do we help blood be the cleanest it can be? >>> Helichrysum, Red Cedar, Frankincense, and most especially clove.
   Where does blood pump through daily and carry good and potential toxins? The heart. The liver. Keeping these clean and healthy is key!
 Orange Essential Oil packs a big, power-packed punch with antioxidants, helping the body remove toxins and free radicals it may be unknowingly exposed to. Why is this important? Clean cells mean a thriving body, both physically and mentally. It also is the foundation for a well-response immune system to anything that comes its way.
 Clove Essential Oil contains antioxidants and may support a healthy immune system and general wellness. Clove oil also contains eugenol and flavonoids, which can help support a healthy inflammatory response and occasional aches and pains. No wonder it has been used in dentistry for centuries!!
 Bay Laurel (AKA Laurus Nobilis & Bay Leaves) has been believed to be effective at calming the mind since ancient times. The linalool and cineol found in bay laurel have been found to reduce everyday anxiety and balance stress hormones. It supports your healthy immune and respiratory systems!!
 Frankincense Essential Oil kind of stands on its own in the blend. We know what Frank can do and how powerful it is for the mind, focus, and clarity. It is amazing at relieving occasional stress and promoting relaxation. Your lovely lungs and respiratory system love the aroma of Frank! Your strong healthy DNA adore frankincense!!!
 Helichrysum Essential Oil - Helichrysum is the Latin name for a flowering plant meaning “immortal” or “everlasting.” That is all I am going to say about our helichrysum right now. Sometimes, less is more.
 Western Red Cedar Leaf Essential Oil AND Western Red Cedar Wood Essential Oil— I want to make sure you notice that we are using both the wood and the leaves. Each part has different constituents that are AMAZING for your body, your brain, emotions, and overall balance. The Western Red Cedar is called the “tree of life” by the Kakawaka'wakw Tribe [Indigenous tribes] of British Columbia. Again, sometimes less is more. Please note: your lungs, sinuses, and entire respiratory and immune system love the aroma!!
  Red Cedar Bliss and why you need it:
• A natural way to support your immune system.
• To support overall wellness.
• To invite harmony into your life.
• Antioxidant-supporting oils that deliver plant powered immune support
• Your lungs, sinuses, and respiratory will thank you!!
• Your healthy heart & blood cells will appreciate you too!!
• Love on your strong DNA!!
How do you use her
1. Add a drop under your tongue, in a glass of water or even to a veggie capsule to take internally
2. Dilute & massage into your skin
3. Diffuse to fill your space with this cheerful, spicy, citrus aroma
  Who is grabbing their bottle right now???
  Who is ordering another bottle to have during the  FALL/ WINTER season??

As the Holiday seasons are upon us, I love to highlight Digize and Tummygize.  These two are powerhouse oils to have on hand for any kind of tummy issues.  Especially after big holiday meals or too much sugar and sweets, these are important to have on hand every day but especially after holiday meals.  My husband loves to rub Digize on his belly when he has eaten too much or has had something that does not agree with him.  I personally don't like the smell so I always carry empty capsules with me so I can put 4 drops in a capsule after I have eaten something that my stomach gets angry with.  I have experienced food poisoning several times this year after eating out, and Digize and activated charcoal have been my saving grace.  If you do not have both in your wellness cabinet, you need to grab them both.  Activated charcoal is also good to soak up alcohol in your system if you have had a few too many and I have even had it work well when I have eaten gluten when I know I should not have.  Digize is wonderful for extreme diarrhea for you, your kids and your pets.  Does your baby get cranky and gassy after having a bottle?  These both work well on babies too.  We have put Digize on our dogs paws when they have had tummy issues with great success.  Tummygize is already diluted for littles but it works perfectly for tummy issues for adults and pets too.   


Do you know that Young Living has Einkorn flour?  
This product MAY be safe for those who cannot tolerate gluten.  It is an ancient wheat, nothing like the adulterated and gmo wheat of today.  
It has 14 chromosomes while modern wheat has 42 so this makes it friendlier to the digestive system.
It has 3-4 times more beta-carotene than modern wheat so it boosts immunity and helps prevents lots of icky stuff. 
It contains 2x more vitamin A than modern wheat for healthy eyes, reproductive organs and more. 
It contains 3-4x more lutein than modern wheat which helps prevent lots of eye related disorders.
It’s got 4-5x more Riboflavin than modern wheat which is an antioxidant that helps us to age well.   
It’s also significantly higher in protein. 
It is not GMO, and it’s easy on the digestive system!  Enjoy the recipe below!


So many of you have been having success with our Daily Hormone Essentials, our Liver  and Whole Body Cleanse.  They are now available on Loyalty so you can enjoy your cash back points while you enjoy your balanced hormones and liver health! 

Are you a new mom and have questions about how to use oils on your littles?  We would love to hear from you so we can walk you through your questions to equip you to feel confident in keeping your kids healthy this winter with confidence.  I have used our normal oil line for my kids and all my grandkids but we have a Kidscents line of oils just for moms who are just starting out and are unsure of how to dilute or what to do with the oils for their babies and toddlers.  These roll-ons are easy peasy and great to toss in the diaper bag, leave at grandmas house or keep next to the crib at night.  You can roll on with confidence and know that the oils are already diluted so there is no questions about how many drops of carrier to use with each oil.  With newborns on up to toddlers, we love to start their oil journey topically only on their feet.
 Or we have a our Little Oilers Starter Bundle for those who need a diffuser for the nursery.  

Can anyone spell Christmas?  I am not in a hurry for this but Young Living is doing their Holiday Product drop on October 11th!  
Keep your eyes peeled on the website or if you are signed up for text alerts from Young Living, you will be notified of the new product launch.  I will be sending out a second blog post that day as well but products go fast so if you can keep up to date with the text updates, you will get to enjoy all the new goodies!  



So good! From Dr. Mark Hyman today...thank you Sarah Harnisch. 
"Your body never lies.
Your skin, your posture, your muscle tone, even the coating on your tongue…these are diagnostic tools.
They’re reflections of your internal biology.
Skin mirrors the liver because your liver is your primary detox organ. When it’s overwhelmed (by sugar, alcohol, processed foods, or environmental toxins) you might see breakouts, dullness, rashes, or premature aging. Beauty creams won’t fix what a clean diet can.
Posture reflects fascia, the connective tissue influenced by inflammation, hydration, and movement. A slouched posture often indicates stress, sedentary habits, or chronic pain.
Fat distribution is hormonal. Belly fat: Think insulin and cortisol. Thigh and hip fat: Think estrogen. Every bite of food either balances your hormones or throws them into chaos.
Jaw structure and airway health are shaped by nutrition from infancy. A diet low in nutrients and high in soft processed foods can narrow the airway, weaken the jaw, and affect sleep, oxygenation, and even facial development.
Fluid retention signals lymphatic congestion. Your lymph system depends on hydration, movement, and anti-inflammatory foods. Puffy eyes and bloating are red flags.
The tongue mirrors the gut. A coated tongue may indicate dysbiosis, an imbalance in your microbiome. Your gut health shows up in your breath, your digestion, your cravings, and your skin.
Muscle tone is a proxy for mitochondrial health and longevity. Sarcopenia (muscle loss) is one of the earliest signs of biological aging. The more muscle you maintain, the younger your cells behave.
Every cell in your body is built from the food you eat.
Your blood, your skin, your brain, your hormones, it’s all constructed from nutrients you either give your body... or don’t.
Appearance matters: not as a measure of beauty, but as a reflection of biology. Your body is always speaking. 
Start listening."
Do you have a hot tub? Want to keep it clean without toxic chemical solutions? I do not have a hot tub but here is a great testimony from a fellow YL leader.  Check out this post by Jan Zerr:
“Just got out of the hot tub!!  
It’s full of water, salt and Geranium essential oil ! 
That’s how we keep it clean and balanced.”
ALSO, Many years ago one of our uplines, Richard & Shauna Dastrup, Sha-Faun Enterprises, shared this about their hot tub experience using YL Geranium essential oil: (some wording changed due to compliance …)
“Young Living’s Essential Oils are heaven sent when it comes to keeping your hot tubs clear, clean and protected. Using Thieves and Geranium…you can use Purification…but it is a stronger odor and not quite so “relaxing” smelling.  Directions: Drop 1 to 3 drops of Geranium into the filter area, not into the hot tub itself, each time you get in the tub (of course this depends on how much it is used...don’t over use the oils because they will cause the PH to go up and the water will turn a little milky.) 
Then use 2 to 4 drops of Thieves about once a week to help take care of scum, things that grow green and other unwanted stuff in the tub with you.  Run through a cleaning cycle. They both make the hot tub smell great and add to the relaxation of the hot water and ‘bubbles’.  Using the oils help to keep the hot tub clear, even after not using for months at a time. It keeps the PH up and the Alkalinity in line. And if you should use a chemical such as Bromine or Chlorine and then drop the oils into the filter area and turn it on for a few minutes, the oils will neutralize the odor of the chemicals. 
It is recommended on a new hot tub that you add the proper amount of chemicals recommended by the manufacture to make sure that all the pipes, tubes, jets and etc are cleaned out good. Then you can start using the Essential Oils. Using your test strips, check to see that the readings are up where they should be, then add the oils and run for a little while, then test the water again and you will see that the PH and Alkalinity will be up but the Bromine or Chlorine will be clear…no color on the strip…this means that the oils have done their job and you are safe to enter the tub. 
Use, experiment and enjoy your “Truly New Awesome, wellness Hot Tub Experience.”

If you have questions about product usage and personal needs, I would love to connect.  If you would like to host a virtual or in person class at your home, I would love to get that scheduled with you.  I look forward to helping you grow in your knowledge of natural health and healing.  

Choose Health!

Welcome!  It is my pleasure to share my story with you and welcome you to the incredible world of Young Living Essential Oils.  
My family consists of myself and my children some of whom have already started their own families.  We started our oily journey about 14 years ago at a time in our life when we desperately needed some calm and Joy!  Have you ever been there?    A friend of mine had invited me to a class to learn about these oils and I wasn't quite sure what to expect but I just knew that my biggest need at the time was to calm some hurting hearts after some major emotional upsets in our home and family life.  Lots of loss and trauma left us with many emotional scars.  The first oil I was introduced to was the oil of "Joy" and it truly just changed the temperature in our home.  Kids were smiling more, laughing more and loosening up!  As a mom, I loved seeing those changes so I continued to investigate and dug in deep to researching all I could about Young Living  oils and the amazing benefits that they could have on our physical, emotional and spiritual well being!  We have never looked back!  I started sharing how these products were so life changing with everyone I could tell, because I wanted my friends and family to have the same results that I was having!  Who doesn't want to share the greatest deal on the pair of shoes you just bought, or the best food at the restaurant that just opened down the street?  We love to help our friends enjoy the great finds that we encounter in life and this is why your here!  Now, not only has our emotional health been improved but our financial health has  had a transformation as well.   I am excited to welcome you to this great  find that has changed my family's life forever!
