Did you know that the store bought bleach is full of toxins? Did you know those toxins prevent your body / systems from functioning normally?
(Hmm, maybe that's why I couldn't breathe normally after using it? Hmm, maybe that's why so many people get horrible migraines and lung burning after using it?)
Well, I haven’t used bleach in over nine years now... instead... THIS!!! It is safe to be used around children and pets and I have gotten rust out of white curtains using this and my summer whites glimmer with no toxic bleach. I make a gallon bottle and store it in my laundry room. I hope you have great results too.

Do you struggle with UTI's? This is the bomb for you! This is long but great information!
Kidney tips 
I personally have been taking this daily! But you can also use it for when situations arise. I ALWAYS keep an extra bottle on hand for emergencies because when you need it, shipping can't come quick enough.
K&B Tincture - Why everyone needs this!
UTI for one! Kicks it in the butt. 
I have only had one in my life, but when I did, ouch, and I added 3 drops of Juniper oil and 3 drops of Oregano daily along with taking the K&B. I felt my discomfort go away overnight and I kept taking the drops until the whole bottle was gone just to make sure that it took care of everything. Hence why I always have an extra on hand. Just incase! Today our toxic load is so high in this world that our kidneys are burdened! The herbicide glyphosate (Roundup) is a huge problem for the kidneys - and now we know it is found in non-organic grains like wheat, oats (Cheerios and other cereal), and even contaminates organic lentils and legumes.
A 90-year-old has only 1/3 - 1/2 of the kidney function of a 20-year-old.
This means that as we age we have a decrease in our ability to rid the body of many toxins.
K&B is your kidney anti-aging secret!
We don't want to have “normal kidney function for our age" - "normal" is not healthy.
K&B is the only supplement from YL that is specifically formulated to support the kidneys, bladder and urinary tract system.
What do Kidneys Do for Us?
The kidneys are filters. They filter the blood 60 times a day.
The blood is moving through the kidneys in high volume.
They rid the body of industrial toxins and heavy metals.
They rid the body of unwanted products of metabolism (ammonia, urea, uric acid, creatinine, hormone metabolites and toxins that have been made water soluble by the liver).
The kidneys help keep the concentration of your blood with the right amount of water and minerals and filter out the bad stuff.
Because the kidneys regulate minerals they regulate the body’s pH. Food, lifestyle contribute to proper pH but it is the kidney’s job to dial in pH.
Sodium regulation - means the kidneys play a role in proper blood pressure.
Before starting other detox protocols, like a heavy metal detox, start with K&B. Water soluble toxins are excreted though the kidneys, so we want them in tip top shape!
K&B is a Tincture
Herbal tinctures are another way we can get the potent part of the plant in a more concentrated form that is consumable. K&B is a combo of wonderful herbs extracted using alcohol.
Tinctures are highly concentrated and you can keep them for a very long time because they are compounded in alcohol.
Why alcohol?
Some plants require extraction with a solvent (alcohol) to get the magnitude of goodness. Water would not work. This is a pure alcohol that is dietary.
Add the tincture to water, add to NR, or squirt it right in your mouth.
Refrigerate after opening and it will last a long, long time.
Taste?
Not good, to some people.
I personally take it in juice or Ningxia Red.
Instructions for Use:
Shake very well.
Start on the low end. Dr Minke suggests 2 droppers two times a day is plenty for most people.
The label says, 3 droppers three times a day by itself or in filtered water.
You can use it regularly, or you can take it for awhile and take time off.
Adults and children over the age of 12.
Shelf Life
Refrigerate after opening and you’ll be able to keep them for a long time. Shake before use.
The bottle says, "Keep in a cool dry place."
It is a tincture with alcohol and EOs to preserve.
Tinctures with alcohol can last a long, long time. 12-14 months or more when you make your own tinctures.
Ingredients
Extracts of juniper berries, which enhance the body's efforts to maintain proper fluid balance.
Parsley, which supports kidney and bladder function and aids overall urinary health
Urva ursi, which supports both urinary and digestive system health.
Dandelion root
Royal Jelly (K&B is not a vegan product)
K & B is enhanced with therapeutic-grade essential oils.
German chamomile
Geranium - keeps liver flowing
Fennel
Clove - fabulous for promoting circulation at the micro level (capillaries). Important for proper kidney health.
Roman chamomile
Sage
Juniper
Be sure to look up all these ingredients in your reference materials to fully appreciate the POWER of K&B!
How to use a Glass Dropper.
YL provides tinctures with a measured glass dropper.
To use a dropper to get proper dosage, first squeeze the bulb to release the contents, while continuing to squeeze the bulb, submerge the dropper into the tincture, release to suck up the right amount of K&B.
That is a full dropper as directed on the label (even though the dropper appears to be half full).
Two droppers (looks like half-filled) gives you 2ml.
Tinctures are Highly Absorbable
Herbal tinctures and liquid preparations of herbs are highly absorbable, in this case a bounty of herbs are added to aid digestion, cleanse the bowels, the blood, the liver and building and supporting all body systems including the Lymphatic System, Cardiovascular System, Circulatory System.
Thank you, Gary for such amazing products!
We look forward to helping you stay healthy and feel great. If you have any questions about reactivating, or need help with shipping, or product usage, please reach out. We are here to serve you!

Its August 1st, can you believe it? I feel like Summer was just beginning and now it is heading towards Fall. As we head into the hottest days of the Summer in most places, at least in the United States, I will share a recipe that my husband just made this week and its so good I think you will want to try it! He took a gallon ice tea jar and made iced green tea, added fresh squeezed lemon juice and 3 squeezes of our Bergamot/Grapefruit Vitality drops (we also have Jade Lemon, and Tangerine Energy drops) This beautiful drink has no sugar but perfectly sweet and such a refreshing cold drink on a hot summer day! Our Vitality drops are .42 cents a serving, and contains electrolytes to help with dehydration and refreshing the body when it needs it on hot days or when your exerting yourself. My husband has told me they cannot ever come off our Loyalty order. We generally use them only when we are out and about and we get water in a restaurant and feel like we are having a sweet treat drink for only .42 cents versus paying 3.00 for an ice tea or coffee. If you have not tried our energy flavors, these can replace your afternoon crashes with a healthier boost of energy without harmful ingredients and without the dehydrating effects of coffee. Let me know if you have tried them, I think you will be pleasantly surprised!
Make sure to check out Young Living free promos this month. All designed to help support healthy digestion. Whether you are on Loyalty Rewards or not, you get to enjoy free products whenever you reach a qualifying amount! If you are on Loyalty Rewards, you not only get the free promos, you also get the dollar for dollar points to redeem for your purchases so you get more free product! Its the best way to build your oily wellness cabinet on a budget so you can kiss co-pays goodbye!

Who loves Cilantro? It is so good in salads and in our Mexican dishes. My husband and I grow it in our organic garden and we use it all summer on tacos, chili rellenos and salads and we also freeze it in ice cubes for winter for those moments when your making a meal and you realize you forgot to grab it from the store. You might just think this is just good flavor for meals but most plants have medicinal properties and cilantro is packed full of them! (hence why we use essential oils from plants)
Cilantrol is a natural chelator. When I was young, my mom had me do chelation which helps remove heavy metals from the body. Here is a great article about chelation: 4 Benefits of Chelation Therapy | Robbins Natural Health
Some Signs and Symptoms of Heavy Metal Overload: https://www.drfelty.com/post/gentle-heavy-metal-detox
- Depression
- Dementia
- Insomnia
- Chronic fatigue
- Poor recovery from workout
- Poor memory and learning
- Digestive issues, such as IBS (irritable bowel syndrome)
- Skin irritation
- Autoimmune diseases
- Neurological disorders
- Chronic aches and pains
- Anemia
- Heart problems
- ADD/ADHD
- Bronchitis
- Asthma
Have chlorella with cilantro 3 times a day for up to 3 months. You can do this by adding them to your smoothie, stir fry, salad, juice, dressing, sauce, rice, etc. According to various studies, heavy metal chelation using cilantro and chlorella can naturally remove an average of 87% of lead, 91% of mercury, and 74% of aluminum from the body within 45 days.
Cilantro Vitality™ provides cleansing properties and may support the digestive and immune systems. In addition, it offers a fresh herbal flavor that can be used in place of fresh cilantro to elevate your cooking.
Cilantro does your body good!
Lavender anyone? Did you know that Lavender is known as the Swiss Army Knife of Oils? It creates a hostile environment to bacteria and fungus, yeast, microbes, helps wounds, helps soothe itchy and irritated skin, and helps your hair thickness and helps you sleep. BUT, did you also know it creates a healthy blood flow? To even the most sensitive areas of the body? There is a book Lucy Libido that you can grab on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Lucy-Libido-Says-Theres-THAT/dp/153069079X
and it gives you all the tips and tricks on how to use Young Living oils for the bedroom. Kick the current stressors in your life to the curb and keep the heat turned up in the bedroom with these recipes and if your asking if they are safe to use in this way? I have thousands of people that happily say YES!!! The main tip with using your oils in the sensitive areas of the body, is to make sure you use a carrier oil, and you will help ignite the flame in your marriage! Really!!
A tried and true recipe that is amazing for both men and women to enjoy: Lub rub: 20 drops Copaiba, 15 drops Palo Santo, 3 drops Lemongrass, 10 drops Lavender in a 1/4 cup of unrefined coconut oil in a glass jar. Keep it next to the bed and enjoy the oily benefits! Essential oils are good for EVERY part of the body, really! 
This particular recipe is also good for soothing aching knees when used several times a day! Multi-use is the name of the game with Young Living oils! They are excellent Multi-taskers!
This particular recipe is also good for soothing aching knees when used several times a day! Multi-use is the name of the game with Young Living oils! They are excellent Multi-taskers!
We used to hold Lucy Libido classes and only women came, it was educational and informative. BUT then we had couples classes where the couples learned together what each of these oils can do for the bedroom and I have to say it was a hoot to invite the husbands. They were rowdy and fun and definitely told their wives to order whatever they wanted! Grab the book and let us know if you would like us to teach a class at your home with your girlfriends. Its a great night out and everyone will enjoy the good, clean and fun education they take home!

From my heart today, I know there is so much stress and anxiety and struggle going on in so many of your lives today. It seems there are numerous amounts of people that are all under such heavy emotional turmoil. I have been helping with the care of my elderly mother more than my normal once a week visit that I have done for almost 30 years. After a recent fall from her not holding on to a solid surface while cooking, we are now in the depths of full time care for her. I feel like I am a natural caregiver, but I have to fully admit that this has completely thrown me for a loop, a loop I feel has taxed me beyond what I knew was possible. The atrophy that has set in with my 94 year old mom and the loss of her memory, not just from her age but her recent surgery from her fall has created situations in caring for her that are sometimes unmanageable for the best of us. For years I have done respite care for the elderly part time just because I love it, but I will say that when it is your own loved one, it is very different and has challenged me in ways that I never expected. My adrenals have been taxed since I was widowed many years ago when I was 28 with three small kids. The first of many losses and traumas. But since then, I have learned many ways to combat the overwhelming stresses of life, loss, grief, and trauma. I will share three of the ways that have best helped me but also the current challenge is one that gives me an even greater sense of compassion for those who care for their loved ones full-time and many on their own. It is something I thought I was well versed in and yet I am finding that I have had just a small glance into the life of caring for a loved one full time and the toll it takes on your mind, your body and your family. In the video below, I talk about the difficulties of Caregiving and the toll it takes, and the ways I and my family have worked through past trauma, stress and PTSD.
Please like, subscribe and share if you think it would be of benefit to your friends and family!
Below are the most used Young Living products that I have found that have helped, and two links to some Non-YL techniques that I have found to be incredibly helpful over the years that you can do anywhere, anytime, and can really deliver much relief to anxiety and stress and feeling of overwhelm when you are going through difficult emotions or physical issues. I hope it serves you today, and helps you with whatever you are experiencing.

Sleeping with your cell phone and Anxiety: https://www.verywellhealth.com/reasons-why-you-should-not-sleep-with-your-cell-phone-4140997
I have learned in recent years to keep your phone away from where you sleep. I keep my phone in the hall where I can still hear it but when I have fallen asleep with my phone in my room, I have noticed sleeplessness, irritability and anxiousness especially when I am trying to sleep. Then, when I take my phone back out and have it away from my brain and my body while I am trying to sleep, I find that I fall asleep right away, and sleep soundly without interruptions. It was an accidental experiment, even though I knew cell phone radiation was not good for the body, I gave the excuse to myself that I needed the alarm to wake me up in the morning. When I started having major issues sleeping without restlessness through the night, where I had never had that before, I decided to purchase a good old fashioned alarm clock without any type of internet connection to it, and put my phone in the hall while we slept. I was incredibly surprised to find that I fell asleep quickly and no longer experienced restlessness or brain disfunction while sleeping. Its especially important to keep your phones away from your children and babies. Kids absorb 46% more radiation than adults and can cause focus problems, anxiety, irritability and behavioral issues.
I encourage you to try the above methods daily to help whatever stresses and anxieties you are facing right now. Healing is always a choice, and a powerful message to those around you that you value your time, your life, and you make your health a priority!
Dealing with S.T.R.E.S.S. - and the consequences of flab, fatigue, messed up hormones, low metabolism....
.
When stress is chronically high, the body produces excessive cortisol over time.
.
Adrenal fatigue can bring with it negative health consequences such as fatigue, weight gain, and cardiovascular disorders.
.
Here are a few key ingredients of Cortistop that may help balance the stress response naturally.
Pregnenolone and DHEA: Precursor hormones from which 50 other hormones are made.
.
(When cortisol/stress is high, DHEA levels can fall. You may see your immune system take a hit, belly fat grow, water retention, sluggish thyroid, low body temp, slow metabolism, PMS, mood issues, poor memory and more).
.
Phosphatidylcholine may protect the brain, liver and stomach during times of stress.
.
Phosphatidylserine may blunt cortisol production.
.
Black cohosh helps stop stress responses, and may elevate mood.
.
Clary sage and frankincense have uplifting energy.
.
Fennel and peppermint can help soothe the stomach.
If you have not tried Cortistop, grab yourself a bottle and give it a try. You will be amazed!!!
My favorite oils for Emotional calm and trauma? Frankincense, Kidpower, Ylang Ylang to calm the cardiovascular system, Tranquil, Stress Away, Trauma Life, Joy, Release, Surrender, Sacred Mountain, Orange. What is your favorite?

Happy Summer, Its July!
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.
What does the number 62 mean to me? Please read through to the bottom to find out the answer AND to enter our July Giveaway, a bottle of Abundance oil blend! We want to hear from you! Congratulations to J Hicks on winning the 3 pack of Vitality drops for the June giveaway! It will be coming to you snail mail!
Summer is in full swing in most parts of the world and in the USA school is right around the corner. I know we don't like to think about that as we are enjoying the fun moments of summer but its good to be prepared for keeping your kids healthy during the fall, as well as stocking up on pencils and folders and college dorm furniture. Keeping your family healthy, naturally reaps benefits that last a lifetime!
Who else is gardening with oils? Protect your plants and yourself from all the little critters that bite!
Do you know Young Living does NOT use any pesticides or chemicals on ANY of our land? None. They hand weed (that takes a boat load of time) but they do it so your oils are pure and unadulterated!!! That’s why we can rub them on our belly and put them in our drinks and diffuse them without harm.
I hope you are all using your bug deterrent oils on yourself and your pets that go outdoors We not only use them on ourselves, and our dog, but also our chickens. We all want to stay bug free this summer!
Below is a YouTube video that I prepared on the cost saving Premium Starter kit and how to use it to effectively keep your family healthier at all times of the year but especially during the start of the school season and Fall/Winter months. Did you know that even if you are already a Young Living member you can purchase another starter kit? And now you can even put it on your Loyalty Rewards and get your cash back points for it too! Its a win, win! I have a diffuser in every room in my home and that is a result of purchasing a new starter kit multiple times. Instead of spending $70 on just a diffuser, I am able to grab a diffuser, 12 powerful oils and all the extras that come in the Premium Starter kit for $165.00. It is available for Shop and Loyalty orders! I hope you enjoy the video, please like, subscribe and share as we are starting to use this vehicle for teaching our members all around the world.
For those who are local in Northern Illinois and South Eastern Wisconsin, we are having two classes for the month of July, the sign up links will be sent to your email by the end of the week so you can grab a friend and come and enjoy learning about our supplements, sipping on coolers while on Silver Lake Beach as the sun sets and enjoy learning the Raindrop Technique in a local home! Keep your eyes peeled for those class links!
Speaking of back to school, are you enjoying the free promotions from Young Living this month? Did you know that every month everyone has the opportunity to get hundreds of dollars worth of free product from Young Living and Loyalty rewards members not only get the free product but they also get 10-25% back in dollar for dollar points to redeem for even more free product! Young Living is by far the most generous company that I have ever purchased from. Where else can you get 25% cash back on your orders? If you have not jumped on Loyalty Rewards and would like to learn more, respond to this email and I can help answer all your questions. I have been on Loyalty for more than 10 years and I get 25% back on all of my monthly orders from small ones to large ones and every month I redeem those points for even more products that I love to support my family and their health. There is never an obligation but its always a bonus even if you just order Lemon, Lavender, and Peppermint monthly to keep those seasonal itchy, sneezy, scratchy issues at bay naturally with no harmful effects.
Young Living is giving us products that will help prepare us for back to school and if you don't have kids, you can still enjoy the taste of the Mighty Vites Vitamins, the calming effects of Peace and Calming oil blend, the functional room spritzer and the bliss of the Lavender Bath Bombs after a hot summers day! If you place your Loyalty order by July 5th, you will also receive $10 extra Loyalty Reward points and get your orders in before the rush of Convention orders later this month!
Have you heard of Regenolone lotion? Not only is this not your average lotion, it is incredible for balancing hormones, joint discomfort and support and beautiful skin. After I had knee surgery, many long time Young Living members encouraged me to use it on my knee! I was confused at first but so many encouraged me to try it that I figured I would do it for a month and see what happens. I just started using it daily about a month ago and I cannot imagine a day without it now! I would love to hear your experiences! Try it out on that joint that is forever bothering you, or use it daily on your face and tummy for extra hormone support and beautiful skin for just a month and see what your results are.
Rose Oil, what's the hype?
Rose essential oil - did you know it takes 60 thousand rose blossoms to provide only one ounce of rose oil. One of the main reasons it is one of our most expensive oils. 
I bought this bottle “years” ago - remember our oils do not expire- and I just add it to other mixes in small quantities to make it last! This is one oil that I never share
After you open rose oil, the next time you go to use it the bottle will look empty, but don’t freak out like I did, just roll the bottle between your warm hands and it will turn back to liquid. It’s natural occurring with rose oil. It will harden like glass and then return to its liquid state when rolled in your palms. Cool isn’t it??? 
According to the 6th edition desk reference, Rose has been used for the skin for thousands of years. The Arab physician Avicenna, was responsible for first distilling rose oil, eventually authoring an entire book on the healing attributes of the rose water services from the distillation of rose. 
It’s beautiful fragrance is intoxicating and aphrodisiac-like. It helps bring balance and harmony helping us to overcome feelings of insecurity. 
It helps our cells be strong and fight. 
It helps create a hostile environment to virus’ 
It helps support a healthy cardiovascular system 
It helps us ladies and men age gracefully from the inside out. 
It helps soothe troubled skin. Rose 
It helps the bodies natural response to inflammation. 
Check it out in your desk reference, it has many more ways it helps our body!!! 
STRESS ANYONE?
Some of my favorites to help me Stress Less:
Evening Peace Bath Gel: a calming blend of oils such coriander, bergamot, ylang ylang and geranium to invoke feelings of serenity and relaxation. Works great for bubble baths.
Gratitude oil: When we concentrate on the things we are grateful for instead of the things that we are stressed about, then we are able to enjoy the present moment more.
Cedarwood: a great oil to use alone or in blends to ease anxious feelings that come with stress.
Eucalyptus Globulus, V6 oil and Olive Wood Massage tool: To help promote health, well-being, and healing. Pair together using the massage tool to relieve stress induced tension.
62? What does this number mean to me?
I have been thinking about all the years I have been doing YL. It will be almost 13 years in February...10 years since I started making it a priority to do it to earn a paycheck.
62.............
When I started Young Living, I just needed to make enough to pay for my order and give me a couple extra hundred dollars a month as a supplement to my widows pay (SS) after loosing my husband. It was very important to me to stay home with my children and not work so I decided to live on the Social Security that I was receiving after my husband died. I did have to supplement a little to have healthy food and supplements in our diet so I started cleaning houses. I didn't have health insurance and the best way to keep us healthy was to live healthy, so cutting out the healthy diet and supplements was not an option. Its cheaper to be well, then to be sick. I was making $15 dollars an hour cleaning houses and I took my kids with me to do their school work at the table of the houses I was cleaning. NOT FUN, very stressful, but I made it work. If something is important, you will find a way.
In comes YL. I didn't have the extra money to spend on Young Living products when I first signed up. Literally not an extra dime, but I did have a 100 a month budget for supplements, as vitamins had always been part of our life. So in order to get free Essential Rewards cash so I could buy some oils, I transferred my vitamin budget to YL vitamins. With doing that $100 a month, I could also earn a thank you check from YL as well for sharing the oils. SCORE>>>>
Do you know YL only requires $100 a month on products YOU get to use in YOUR home to gain a paycheck? Never any more, even when you are Royal Crown Status and making over 100,000+ a MONTH....Yes that is a real figure for real people, like stay at home moms who love to share what they love.
I had no intention of doing it as a business, but I just wanted my oils paid for and wanted the ER points to redeem for oils since I didn't have the money to pay for them myself.
Then the products were so good I had to tell people I knew about them because I wanted them to have the same amazing results. When your life is changed, you want to help your friends too.
Sometimes over the years it seemed like I worked for free, since I spent time posting and reaching out to members, answering calls and sending texts. Is it really worth it I asked? I'm not a fast enroller so it seemed i was working for nothing..... If your a fast enroller, you can reach each rank even faster, some make it to Royal Crown Diamond in two years. That is not my story, but it could be yours!
Remember I was cleaning houses, not being present with my children and away from my home, doing lots of physical labor for $15 dollars an hour....minus gas, minus freedom, minus time with my kids,......and so on.
But every conference I went to and every personal development video I watched, reiterated that entrepreneur's sometimes work for free on the front side but have to do less work on the backside. All of the YL Diamonds said that too... The higher up you rank, the number of hours you need to work is less. BONUS
So every time I wanted to quit, I called my upline and talked with her. She talked me off the ledge MANY a time....Before each rank up that I achieved, inevitably I wanted to quit, but calling for support is key....Its worth it she would say, stay the course, be in it for the long haul.....its worth it. Residual income is a thing, creating an income that will pay you when you are on vacation is a thing....creating an income that will pay you when we have a pandemic and the outside world is shut down is a thing....its a beautiful thing...
So I kept plugging away, ranking up slowly, but surely....Doing all the things...
When I graduated High School I worked downtown Chicago, making $26,000 a year as an executive secretary. Not bad for an 18 year old but you definitely cannot raise a family on this. I worked 40 hours a week and had to take a 90 minute train ride TWICE a day, walk a mile once I got into the city to my office, I had to buy business attire, shoes, lunches, AND a monthly train pass. Oh Yeah, I had to live on the rest after taxes.....
Todays average salary for what I was doing almost 30 years ago is ONLY $31,421 a year according to Glassdoor. : ( Minus all the above monthly expenses to boot.
I am a couple thousand away from Platinum rank with YL. Its been 10 years and although that sounds like a LONNNNNNG time, (it has felt like it sometimes) (the average salary MONTHLY for a Platinum is $9,929.00. It could be more, or a 1-2,000 less depending on how many you have in your organization at that level. But, Yes, that is monthly....Working 20 hours a week. So is waiting 10 years (7 years to hit GOLD) worth it? Absolutely! Again many grow faster than me, but I had my kids to raise alone and with homeschooling, I grew at the pace that my family needed. It worked well for us.
So what is the number 62? That is what I calculated if I were to be making an hourly wage at my current GOLD rank. I took my monthly average salary and divided it by 80, as I generally work about 20 hours a week, from my home, with no travel expenses unless I choose that, and I am with my family, and have lots of write offs, and this is what I make an hour. $62 dollars an hour for working part time....And did I mention I can work from anywhere? So when I go visit my kids in Cali and Indiana I can still work at night when all are asleep, or if I travel to teach classes I can still work and keep my business going...In January last year I was working from the beach, its a beautiful thing.
Did I tell you that Young Living income is willable, so you can pass down your account to a child, a spouse, a grandchild and they can continue your business at your rank, receiving your paycheck that you worked so hard for! It doesn't go away when you die like most sources of income. And you can sign up your aging mother, or your children and build under them helping them to create a residual income for themselves too as they grow! Its a wonderful perk of sharing Young Living.
So I am celebrating 62 because I would not be able to make $62 dollars an hour, especially working part time, if I were doing the job that I was trained for right out of college. I don't know of any job that I personally could do that would reap me an hourly wage like this that I would not only be qualified to do after staying home for 30 years with my children, but also that I love as passionately as I do working with Young Living and all my members. I love what I do and I wake up daily excited to do it again!
Is 62 worth it for you to keep going? For you to stay the course? For you to start afresh? For you to change someone's world and yours?

Who would like to see our newest diffuser? I know who I am going to get this for already, she is soooo cute! Meet Shelly the Turtle!
What’s on the minds of most of us lately? 
I laugh when people say YL oils are too expensive! It’s like everything in life, knowledge is power and when you understand what’s in these little multi-tasker bottles is straight up money saving goodness! 
People spend a lot of money on lots of things, cough syrup, allergy meds, pet protection, prescrips galore, wound care, anti-BI-O-tics, emotional pills, and the list can go on and on.
Just this one bottle of Purification goodness here, does so many things in our home. Currently I am diffusing it in my garage because we had our baby chicks in our garage for weeks and the smell is 
so this beautiful oil blend digests odors from clothes, shoes, attics, smoke, fish, and chickens 
without putting any toxic chemicals into your air space. It is also free this month with our qualifying monthly promos.
so this beautiful oil blend digests odors from clothes, shoes, attics, smoke, fish, and chickens without putting any toxic chemicals into your air space. It is also free this month with our qualifying monthly promos. It also is great to spray on you and pets to keep the creepy crawler things off you during the summer, when your camping, hiking, playing and especially crawlers that like to cling to you and suck your blood, so it’s an outdoor spray for the whole family that doesn’t contain any CAN -CER causing ingredients for you or your pets.
It’s also great to rub on your glands when your not feeling well. It helps support your lymphatic system and cleanse all the things in your body when your body is struggling. When my youngest had emergency surgery 11 years ago, so put this on her feet every half hour in the hospital, along with other oils, to keep her body from catching anything that we did not want her to catch in the hospital.
That’s just a few ways we use this oil.
So next time you hear someone say Yl oils are too expensive, add up all those above items that you would have to buy to replace this little bottle here and realize what a gem you have. It works cellularly to create balance in the body, and your over the counter boxes can’t touch that 
So today I’m spraying this pup today to keep her safe outside and keep her from bringing in any unwanted guests on her fur and then I’m diffusing it in my house to get rid of the chicken smell.
Choose health! Be informed, when you know you know! 
What do these two bottles below have in common? One bottle is almost 10 years old and one bottle is new! I combined the oils in these two today BECAUSE our oils DONT expire!!!!
Our oils are pure so a bottle of oil tucked away in a drawer that you haven’t used in years is JUST as potent and great for your cellular integrity and ailments as is the new one you just bought. I’m consolidating oil bottles at my moms today. So glad we have a great product that lasts and doesn’t loose
its potency over time!!!!
Cheap oils don’t work at a cellular level. They are literally just a pretty scent. BUT Yes our Young Living oils work at a cellular level and create restoration and change in the body and don't have expiration dates. Dried herbs loose their potency in less than a year, and our pure oils last a lifetime!
Oily tip:
Did you know in 1922 when King Tut’s tomb was opened, 350 liters of Essential Oils were discovered in alabaster jars, as the jars were sealed by plant waxes, the Essential Oils were discovered to be in perfect condition.
Pure essential oils do NOT expire! Our labels do not have an expiration date on them because a pure unadulterated oil does not expire.
I talk about Digize a lot because its a powerhouse. Some of the uses I have currently used for it just this month is Digestive support when my stomach is feeling crummy, on my one month old nephews feet when he was screaming after he ate, on my feet when I went into a local lake (its great for all the things that could make you cringe when you are walking on the beach or in the dirt- I used to put it on my youngest feet daily because she loved to be barefoot daily) and I have used it as bug repellant because it was closer than my Purification bottle when I was going outside at night with the skeeters to water my garden. It kept all the nasties away! This oil is the bomb for people and for pets and is a must have to have on hand!
When people say YL is expensive.
Here is another money saving tip!!!!
When these vitality drops came out, I was a little aghast at the price. I usually am with some YL products until I experience their benefit and break down the cost.
So I don’t drink pop but I do drink iced tea or coffee when I go out to a restaurant. We all need to drink more water too. Does anyone struggle with that? I ordered these vitality drops when they first came out to try them so I could talk about if they were good or meh, and I definitely personally love them. This here is the Electrolyte version that I use all Summer long for hikes, biking, walking and generally being in the heat and they have an energy one that I love to get for my husband to keep him from drinking an excessive amount of coffee when he needs energy. All the flavors are amazing! Getting natural energy while drinking water, plus plus.
I am traveling soon and in planning what I am taking with, I know I will be in a hot where we are going (hence why we need more electrolytes) and I will need to eat out some while we are traveling.
So here is how I broke down the savings for me:
If I’m at a restaurant, at the MINIMUM a tea or coffee is 2-4 dollars anywhere, I am finding. Yes you get refills but still, it adds up and increases my bill. That’s just for one person and one drink. Yikes ....
When I just order water at a restaurant it costs ZERO dollars and I can add a squeeze of vitality drops and it will taste like a sweet, fun fruity drink.
I paid $30.25 dollars for a 3 pack of these vitality drops which sounds like a lot but in each bottle you get 24 servings.
When I take the 30.25 dollars and divide it by 72 servings in the 3 bottles that means I will get 72 drinks out of this 3 pack for .42 cents a piece.
You can’t even buy a stick of gum for .42 cents!!!!!
Saving money while choosing healthy products!!!! Order them on your Loyalty Order and I get $ 7.50 back to use on other products just from savings myself lots of money on drinks.
I’m also drinking LOTS more water because it tastes good. No artificial garbage, no artificial sweeteners which are neurotoxic, and electrolytes to keep me balanced when it’s warm out or natural energy when I buy the energy 3 pack.
Win, win, savings galore!
Choose health!!!!!
Minerals anyone?
Mineral Essence™ is an organic, liquefied ionic mineral complex with more than 60 very fine ionic minerals that assimilate much easier than minerals taken from other sources. Of course it also has the added benefit of our Lemon, Cinnamon bark and Peppermint essential oils to enhance their bioavailability. The minerals Gary chose to put in this product are essential for activating certain enzymes for
digestion and metabolic functions that promote a healthy digestive tract!
Now, I’m warning you that it can be pretty rough tasting to some people
(as are all respectable liquid mineral supplements i.e. minerals are not tasty). I always add it to my NingXia Red
and MindWise
combo, and maybe some extra Tangerine Vitality oil and throw it back. Be sure to keep it in the fridge after opening (and cold is better for taste anyhow) and it’s easy to remember next to your NingXia Red!
Years ago, I remember seeing a video of Diamond leader Nancy Knittle’s dog Boomer
and he would sit up and let them squirt Mineral Essence in his mouth! He loved it and it became a daily treat for him. Now, the back story to this is that this little poodle used to chew on rocks (which has its own obvious consequences) but he stopped after getting what his body was craving from Mineral Essence! When people chew ice, and certainly if they are chewing rocks, this can be an iron or a mineral deficiency. If we exercise a lot/in the heat, we hear about replacing our electrolytes (like those sold in nasty neon blue sports drinks), and electrolytes are minerals. A friend who is a cyclist is in really good shape. A few years ago, he was screened with a zyto compass after a 4-hour bike ride and it came up that he was out on 17 biomarkers… and 16 of those biomarkers were brought back into balance by the suggestion of Mineral Essence and the last one with MultiGreens. The perfect experiment to see what we need to replenish ourselves with after exertion! Gotta replace those minerals we sweat out!
Although we should get most of our minerals from food, so many of our food sources (and I’m talking fresh, organic foods even) can be grown in very nutrient-poor soil and therefore have very little of the minerals previously known to be in our veggies and fruits. Not only is the soil devoid of most minerals now, it is heavily polluted with chemicals.
We must have minerals, vitamins and enzymes for our body to actually carry out its myriad of functions that keep us alive. So, I do supplement with Mineral Essence to be sure I have the catalysts for millions of reactions throughout the body. I grew up with my maternal grandma telling me she did not take supplements because she got what she needed from her food. Now, she did have a great diet FULL of fruits and veggies but the soil and our diets just aren't the same anymore. It is the quality of the produce that is the key. And, unless we are growing it ourselves and have the soil tested, we don’t really know the vitamin and mineral content of the broccoli or swiss chard or spinach that we purchase each week at the store.
We have major-player minerals like Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium, Sulfur and Chloride that we can get in bigger doses in our YL products Super Cal Plus, Sulfurzyme and Alkalime.
But then we have our trace minerals that are crucial to the body for intricate functions of enzyme reactions, hormone production, metabolic processes. If you want to know more, go research how important trace minerals are to our bodies. You’ll be gulping down Mineral Essence after a little stint on your search engine.
Need some help on the energy bus? Try it in the morning.
Need some support for muscle twitching at night? Try it in the evening.
Do it for 30 days and you will FEEL the difference it makes in your life.
So, if you haven’t tried it before, get it on your next order and make it your daily habit. Your cells and organs will thank you!
