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.

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!!

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 listenfor 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.
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

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.
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."
“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.”
“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.
