April is here and Spring is upon the Midwest! If you struggle with the seasonal changes in the air, sniffling, sneezing, itchy eyes, please remember to use our beloved Seasonal Blend that people in Young Living have been using for well over the 13 years that I have been with Young Living. 5 drops each of Lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, in a gelatin capsule and take internally every 4 hours or as needed. It also works to support healthy digestion and lymphatic system and you can use the oils separately too for soooo many other things, that is why we call our oils the great multi-taskers. One bottle of Lavender helps keep bugs away, helps you sleep, creates a hostile environment to fungus and bacteria internally. helps with skin irritation of all kinds, cuts and scrapes, cellular integrity and sooo much more. Its known as the Swiss Army knife of oils. Be sure to only use YL Lavender, as Lavender is the widest known adulterated oil and there is actually more Lavender sold then there is grown because there are so many synthetic versions out there. If you purchased an off brand of Lavender that smells sweet like candy, its synthetic. And, Young Living oils don't expire because they are pure, unadulterated and have no chemicals or herbicides or pesticides used on the crops. They are safe to ingest for just that reason.
Every month we have a giveaway and all we do is ask for feedback or testimonials from you. No purchase is ever necessary. For the month of April, we will be giving away a bottle of Sleepessence. In order to enter your name, just let us know either on our Facebook education page or by replying to this email, and let us know what your favorite oils are to use for sleep? Or if you have not tried any for sleep yet, what are the oils you would like to try for the first time? When you answer one of these questions, your name is entered into this months drawing!
Sleepessence testimony from a flight attendant!
I’m fortunate to not have much difficulty sleeping, however, as a flight attendant I’m constantly working odd hours and have no real consistency in my sleep schedule. I’ve always taken Sleepessence with me on my trips in case I’m having trouble falling asleep in hotels. I usually only take it in abnormal circumstances like that, but this past week I happened to be home all week and took it every night to try to catch up on quality sleep while I had the chance.
Every night that I’ve taken it I have slept so deeply for 9-10 hours without waking up at all in the night! Even though I’m normally a good sleeper without it, I typically sleep 7-8 hours and wake up at least once or twice. I know not everyone has the luxury of sleeping this long, but if you have any trouble falling or staying asleep you need to try this!!
2nd Testimonial - My son-in-law was having a terrible time staying asleep. He just has too much energy and needs to wake up very early morning for his job and wanted to get and stay asleep sooner and just wasn't having success. They bought a bottle of Sleepessence last month and it is recommended to take 2 capsules, but he decided to take one instead and didn't even remember falling asleep. He slept long and hard and couldn't believe it. He doesn't even feel like he needs to take the two capsules to get the rest he needs.
I have been using my Itovi Scanner a lot recently to help people see what their body needs nutritionally. One of the products that has come up for many has been Mineral Essence. I think we, as a society, are very mineral deficient. I know when I crave chocolate more than usual, I just take magnesium glycenate at night and the cravings are gone. It is the same for leg cramps or charlie horses. Young Living has an incredible Mineral blend that has so many benefits. It is great to put into a shot glass of juice or your morning Ningxia or you can actually put it in your bath water or apply it to your skin topically and get the same benefit.
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!

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. As many of you know, my husband Jim is a cyclist 
and is in really good shape. A few years ago, I screened Jim 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!

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, as I tried to tell her, that her produce wasn’t the same as in the 1920s on the farm in Montana. 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.

CORTISTOP

Use Cortistop to help people that need a little help with the jitters or when life is throwing you some hard stuff and you are staying in that flight or fight mode! 
Do you know it’s not healthy to stay in the fight or flight mode? It actually weakens your muscle tissue? It causes stress on your cardiovascular system too!
It helps women or men of all ages, but especially as us ladies get older and experiencing “changes”!!!!
Choose health, choose prevention!
