Young Living in the Kitchen
With Father’s Day around the corner, I thought it fitting to use your oils in a fun way this month and whip up a classic cocktail. If your guy doesn’t want the alcohol added, simply omit it and serve up a delicious MOCKtail instead. Have you ever tried your oils in a drink before? Make this recipe and snap a pic… share it online and tag me! I’d love to see you oiling!
Fun fact: Ginger Vitality supports the digestive and respiratory systems… and so much more! If you have a reference book, look it up. If you don’t have one, send me a message and I’ll hook you up!
Product Spotlight
Chances are you will be spending a lot of time outside this month and next - out in the garden, at the pool or the beach, baseball games, hiking, or just enjoying a walk through the neighborhood. Exposure to sunlight is good for the soul… and your health! When your skin is exposed to sunlight, it makes Vitamin D from cholesterol. This vitamin plays an important role in our immune system so it can be hugely beneficial. However, overexposure to the sun can lead to burned skin, wrinkles, eye injuries, and even skin cancer. So let’s protect that beautiful skin, shall we?
Young Living’s Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 50 is the perfect solution! It’s a natural, broad-spectrum sunscreen and is chemical-free, making it a healthy alternative for adults and kids. You don’t have to worry about toxic chemicals - like a LOT of the mainstream sunscreens contain. This dermatologist-reviewed product is formulated to easily smooth on skin without leaving white residue. Enjoy the outdoors worry-free with up to 80 minutes of water- and sweat-resistant lotion. It’s reef-safe and made with non-nano zinc oxide. This might just be the best sunscreen you’ve ever used!
Important Announcements
Starting June 1, Young Living is simplifying its current rewards program. Going forward, Subscribe to Save and Loyalty Rewards will simply be called “Loyalty Rewards.” You’ll still unlock your 24% discount, earn loyalty points and gifts the same as you did before, but now the rules will be a bit simpler. Loyalty orders (previously called subscription orders) will process every month, and you’ll be able to add items on your loyalty order to “Save for Later” instead of having to process them every one, two, or three months. See the FAQ, infographics, and mockups for more details or check out the updated Loyalty Rewards page beginning June 1.

 Fact: Your brain  uses thoughts to compare, measure and describeEVERYTHING and nothing else. You can’t control the thousands of thoughts that pop in your head, but you can control which ones you focus on. Learn to acknowledge thoughts and let them float on by without giving them your full attention. They’re only thoughts. Most of them aren’t even real or facts. Why give them your attention?    let them float on out just like they came in. Don’t worry another one will roll in behind it, but you can do the same. And repeat. It gets easier. It is so worth it. Peace of mind is invaluable.  When we learn to take time in our daily life to silence the world around us and sit quietly in meditation, the rest of life becomes so much easier. It only takes a few minutes a day to start this life changing habit. I have found several amazing apps to learn to meditate. A couple of my faves are Synctuition, and Balance. Synctuition uses binaural beats to bring your mind on a journey and the Balance app teaches you how to meditate and practices using different tools in your meditation. CALM the mind, and the body will follow. I hope this brought you some helpful info and if you want to chat about more ways to improve your wellbeing, comment below or reach out to me!

Hello friends. Today is a great day to have a great day no matter what comes your way.
That being said, life is amazing, especially when you focus on the blessings of it all
Life happens.
That being said, when it happens in ways we don't expect we have 2 choices. We can roll with it, or get flustered and upset over it. It's a choice. We can react, or respond. Huge differences between the two. ❤️
Reacting is usually not pleasant to you or your body. It's usually a triggered reaction from something we've supressed instead of dealt with. Responding, takes a breath first then realizes stuff happens and more will happen too. All of it happens for you and your benefit. *Life happens for you, not to you. Let me say that again, Life happens FOR you, not TO you. That's right, ❤️
Learning that the peace in life is found in the present moment. Not in the past things we coulda done, shoulda done or woulda done. It's not in the future of how we think things should work out could work out or can work out. That's the joy of the present. It's right now. It's the only place we can be calm, cool and collected. The present moment is the only thing we have active control over anything. Our reactions. period. Life is gonna keep happening, and it's never gonna go as planned, so stop getting pissed or disappointed when it goes different than you wished. It's happening for you. ❤️
Now on another note, a great way to help yourself stay in the present is with taking time each day to consciously. be present. AKA meditation, Learning to focus your thoughts on your breath. One breath at a time. I love to use my oils while I meditate for a deeper peace. Did you know essential oils actually affect the limbic system (our emotions) in so many ways. That's why smelling things brings back memories. Now to create new memories and intentions by bringing these scents into your meditation to train your brain to relax when you smell them. Try it, it works. Some of my favorite oils to meditate with are palo santo, believe, grounding, frankincense, and present moment. But as we are all so different, the choice is up to you.

Your mixture is ready when you can mold it into a shape and it sticks without coming apart. If it is too crumbly, add in water, 1 tsp at a time. Mixture should be dry but able to hold a shape. To shape your bath bombs either pack them into your molds or a large ice cream scoop. Leave in the molds overnight, then remove carefully and place on a baking sheet to dry.
