It's August and welcome to the dog days of summer! I have just returned from visiting family in Indiana and Michigan and got to enjoy some beautiful sights and down time before the craziness of Fall and the holidays. Have you had time to get away or are you enjoying a Stay-cation? I traveled a lot with my 5 kids when they were young, even as a widowed single parent, but we always drove, ate out of a cooler and did as many things we could that didn't cost money.....and in all honesty, when my youngest kids were little, they were playing out in the kiddie pool one evening when I went out there to pull them in for dinner and one of them asked me to get wet in the pool with them, "I declined" but somehow we ended up getting into a water fight and I used the hose to spray them all down and play water tag with them for about a half hour, getting soaked beyond belief. Still to this day when I have asked my kids what is your favorite memory growing up, its not the trips to Canada, Disney, or even the yearly trip out east to the beach, I have been told it was when I just let loose and played in the backyard with them and doused them with water and let them do the same to me. So whether your traveling or if this is a season where you stay put, I hope your Summer is being good to you and you enjoy the little things.
It is Hot out here in the Midwest and if its hot where you are, make sure to keep your bottle of Peppermint in your pocket. Peppermint helps to cool the bodies internal and external body temperature when 3-4 drops are applied to the back of the neck and one drop on the wrists. You will feel that icy cold sensation and you will also feel immediately cooler. Just a note when applying it to small children, many kids are confused by the icy cold sensation and sense it as "hot", and if that happens, you can put several drops on the bottom of their feet to get the same result. Peppermint also helps the bodies response to inflammation, so you will cool down and see some other beautiful benefits! A drop is also great in warm water and stevia for a peppermint hot tea, hot chocolate, and homemade chocolate bark. Check out your desk reference for all the different ways to enjoy Peppermint essential oil.
Remember to order your must haves for Fall/Winter. Every year I have people message me when their family is down for the count and unless you have oils and supplements on hand, you don/t have any tools to work with and you will be waiting a week to have an order shipped to you so stock up this Fall and be prepared!!!! Jump on our Loyalty Rewards program and order a small order monthly to enjoy the rewards points and reduced shipping and the fun of getting your healthcare shipped right to your door. My top pics for winter are RC, Thieves, Christmas Spirit, Cedarwood, Myrrh, Orange, Oregano, Thyme and Digize!!!!!
I am including an article below about a supplement that my husband started taking this year, called Nattokinase. The following statements are my own opinion and I encourage everyone to read the article and continue with your own research. We have several sources for the benefits of Nattokinase and so when my husbands doctor wanted to put him on a synthetic blood thinner, we were off on an adventure to research how we could do this naturally without harm to his body and side effects. When researching this product, we also found it has been shown to break up blood clots, support a healthy heart and bones too. This is not a recommendation that you stop whatever drugs you currently take, but this is merely to encourage you to look at some other sources to make an informed decision for your health. Nattokinase is not a Young Living product nor is it promoted by Young Living. These statements are my own and are for educational purposes only. I do not profit from this product but just enjoying the benefits in our own home. Enjoy the article.
I have many people asking me about this topic and I hope you enjoy doing more research for you and your family!
Last week I sent out an educational email about our Melissa oil, its benefits, how its grown, harvested and distilled. It is one of the most expensive oils that we have at Young Living, but the benefits are pretty incredible. I personally buy a bottle every year and use the drops sparingly in other blends to enjoy the benefits but also to stick within my budget. Another way to enjoy the benefits of Melissa that I mentioned in our educational email, is to take Young Living MultiGreens. Have you heard of Bioavailability? Before putting essential oils in our Multigreens supplements, there was a 42% blood absorption in 24 hours, but after adding essential oils to our Multigreens, blood absorption rate rose to 64% in 30 minutes and 86% in one hour. Multigreens also helps your body have smoother and regular bowel movements daily. Who knew healthy living could be so easy?
Everybody needs more GREEN in their life, right? Add in the benefits of Melissa oil! This supplement is definitely something you might consider adding to your daily routine.
MultiGreens contains chlorophyll and is designed to boost vitality by working with the glandular, nervous, and circulatory systems.

Why is our new Young Living collagen so special?
Collagen 101
What is collagen?Collagen is a type of protein - it is what gives structure to your skin, bones, tendons, organs, teeth, muscles, and blood vessels. It’s what makes our skin plump and soft, our hair and nails grow long and strong, our joints move smoothly, and strengthens our bones and muscles.
As you hit the age of 30, the body’s collagen production reduces quite a bit - and continues to decline by 1% each year. By the time you’re 50, your collagen levels have been cut in half.
Luckily, we can add collagen back into our bodies - very easily and efficiently!
What are the types of collagen?TYPE I - This makes up more than 75% of the collagen in your entire body! This is your beauty bestie! It reduces fine lines and wrinkles, plus improves hydration and elasticity. It strengthens your nails, and helps your hair grow longer and thicker. It helps support your muscles, eyes, bones, and spine as well.
It is most abundant in marine collagen, and because the molecules are smaller it is most bioavailable in this form. Bovine contains type I as well, although the molecules are larger.
TYPE II - Great for supporting joint health, as it is only present in your cartilage. It makes up the most of the protein molecules in your cartilage, and the connective tissue that protects your bones at the joints. This is best taken in bone broths made from beef and chicken. Young Living's AgilEase and BLM supplements also contain Type II collagen!
TYPE III - Best used for gut healing and supporting your muscles, tendons, ligaments, connective tissue, and blood vessels. It is the second most abundant type of collagen in you body. This is found in bovine (beef) collagen.
Type 2 is great for joints. Type 1 is great for joints AND SKIN. Young Living uses Type 1!!!! 
What is the difference between a liquid and powder collagen?The most obvious difference between liquid collagen and powder collagen is that liquid collagen comes in liquid form while powder collagen comes in powder form.
When you mix a powder collagen into liquid (coffee, tea, smoothie, whatever!) - it shockingly, I know, is now a liquid collagen.
Pre-made liquid collagen is a matter of convenience for many people and personal preference. It is often sold in single serving packets for taking it on the go. It generally has between 2.5-10 grams of collagen per serving (Young Living’s Bloom liquid collagen available internationally has 10 grams!) Some liquid collagen has added ingredients and less than desirable ingredients, so read those labels!
Powder collagen is virtually tasteless and can be mixed into your coffee, tea, smoothies, yogurt, or really anything you’d like! It is typically sold in sustainable bulk packaging that is more eco-friendly.
Which type should I choose?There are benefits to each type of collagen, so to say “THIS is better than THIS” is really doing a disservice to our bodies!
How much do you need to see results?
For skin: 2.5g - 10g per day
For joints: 2.5g - 5g per day
For muscle growth: 15g - 20g per day
Wanna start? Inner Beauty Collagen is your new bestie!Sustainably sourced Type I marine collagen is incredibly bioavailable. Type I collagen makes up more than 75% of the collagen in our bodies!

Every ingredient COUNTS:
Type I marine collagen: A highly soluble form of bioavailable type I collagen, this ingredient is sourced from sustainable fish using a proprietary hydrolysis manufacturing process that uses no harsh chemicals or solvents. It is odorless and tasteless.
Peach ceramides: This ingredient helps provide hydration to the skin, decreasing skin dryness.
Biotin, vitamin C, and zinc: Vitamin C and zinc support collagen synthesis for glowing skin, while biotin supports hair and nail health.
Tapioca fiber: This prebiotic fiber supports healthy skin by balancing the gut microbiome.
Superoxide dismutase (SOD): SOD is an antioxidant enzyme produced through our unique fermentation process.
Hyaluronic acid: This ingredient supports skin hydration, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for more youthful-looking skin.
