For years we have heard the growing warnings about all our electronics and how they are affecting us as a society, our intellect, and now we are learning how electronics are affecting our health.
How? You may ask?
Electromagnetic Frequencies. More Commonly known as EMF's
EMF's are found in
- microwave ovens
- computers
- house energy meters
- wireless (Wi-Fi) routers
- cellphones
- Bluetooth devices
- power lines
- MRIs
The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified EMF's as a probable carcinogen. Scientists have found that individuals who hold their cell phones to their ear have a higher chance of brain tumors on that side of their brain. EMF's have been linked to leukemia in adults and children.
While studies have shown links between EMFs and disease, it is hard to pin point the threshold at which EMF's are acceptable (to allow us to enjoy our technology) and when they become a hazard to our health. As more and more items begin to emit EMF's it becomes clear that we must stay vigilant against this Silent monster.
How do you know if you are being affected buy EMFs? Try looking as some of these symptoms:
- sleep disturbances, including insomnia
- headache
- depression and depressive symptoms
- tiredness and fatigue
- dysesthesia (a painful, often itchy sensation)
- lack of concentration
- changes in memory
- dizziness
- irritability
- loss of appetite and weight loss
- restlessness and anxiety
- nausea
- skin burning and tingling
- changes in an electroencephalogram (which measures electrical activity in the brain)
As we have become more and more reliant on technology are we simply to accept our diseased fate? Absolutely NOT!! We can still enjoy our technology and still intentionally counteract its effects. It's like bathing. you KNOW you are going to get dirty so you clean yourself regularly. So how do we "clean" ourselves of EMF's?
Here are some ways that we have found help our family. First up is reduction....
- Put your home wifi on a timer and turn it off at night.
- Put your phone on airplane mode in the evening as you sleep or during work hours when you do not need to be reached
- Do not text or carry on conversations while in the car. The constant changing of cell towers requires the phone to send out more EMFs
-Use wired earphones to talk on your cell and limit carrying your phone on your body or in clothing
- Attach EMF reducing devices to you phone, laptops, router and wireless earbuds- All items can be found on amazon!
Support your body- We know that EMFs are around us, so use these oils and supplements to support your body and cleanse away the negative effects of EMFs - Melrose Essential oil
- Diffuse this oil daily in your home to support your body and cleanse excessive electricity.
- Thyromin- Because EMF's are draining on the thyroid and especially to the healthy absorption of Iodine, the supplement Thyromin is a fantastic way to care for your thyroid and endocrine system.
- Super C- Vitamin C floods your body with antioxidants which help cleanse the cells and boost the immune system. This cleansing helps the body to release excess EMFs in the body for optimal function.
-Longevity Capsules or Longevity Vitality Oil- Taking these internally acts as a full body defense and rejuvenation for your body. This fights the signs of aging which can be increased by exposure to EMFs Electromagnetic Frequencies are everywhere. The effects are becoming undeniable. The good news is that you do not have to live in fear and can confidently reduce your exposure and take care of your body despite their presence.
Have you considered the effects of EMF's on your body before? Try some of these suggestions and let me know what you notice!

My Friend Jill is the QUEEN of Hacks. And When she showed me how she makes the Young Living Laundry Soap last FOR_EV_ER in her house I was amazed! Check out her post and video tutorial here.
Hopefully, you have put on your comfy clothes, have made some tea, and are ready to explore Essential Oils and Animals.
*I am not a doctor or veterinarian. I am not here to diagnose, treat, or cure any of your (or your pets!) illnesses. The content I cover is for informational purposes only.
What are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are secondary metabolites produced by plants as part of their health and defense systems.
-----
When we inhale, we absorb these essential oils and their evaporating constituents into the brain.
The sense of smell is connected to the limbic system of the brain.
--> The Limbic System is where emotions, memory, and certain regulatory functions of the body are found.
*!* Thus, essential oils simultaneously work on the physical level AND the emotional level.
Applied Zoopharmacognosy and how it relates to essential oils
This method states that animals have an innate ability to know what they need for health.
---> When working with essential oils, we use this natural instinct and allow the animal to choose what products they prefer. This method is safe, effective, and simple, and it strengthens the bond between you and your animal.
-----
HOW does the choosing work?
You keep the lid on the essential oil and let them smell it. Their "choice" or a positive sign looks like prolonged sniffing, interest, or even licking.
A negative choice will be completely ignoring it, barely giving it a sniff, or actual avoidance.
Do not force a product on an animal as it can cause stress.
Adverse effects may result by forcing essential oils on an animal.
(Check out the linked youtube video for reference!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wYhl1QIHR4
-----
***As you work with your animals and listen to them, a bond of trust is built. It turns out that they've been caring for themselves long before they partnered with us!
Have you ever experienced your pets doing this with other things? For example, when dogs eat grass to calm their tummies.
Horses and Dogs and Cats....Oh My!
🐴 Horses 🐴-
Horses tend to respond very well to essential oils since they are herbivores and have metabolic pathways to break down most oils. They also tend to prefer the inhalation and licking methods used with oils.
🐶Dogs🐶
Dogs also tend to prefer inhalation and licking methods.
🐱Cats🐱
Cats don't have metabolic pathways to break down most essential oils. Essential oils can still be safe to use. Be sure to let them choose their own oils. Cats are even more discerning than dogs. This means your cat will probably tell you exactly what he/she wants. If you have any concerns you can consult your veterinarian.
General Rules of Thumb! 👍👍
-----
Animals, due to all their hair follicles, have an increased rate and amount of absorption, so I would use plenty of carrier oil when applying any oil.
Err on the cautious side. Cats should have carrier oil dilution, around 8 drops of carrier oil to 1 drop of EO, and dogs under 25 pounds should have 5 drops of carrier oil to 1 drop of EO. You can always dilute further in the beginning.
-----
LISTEN TO YOUR ANIMAL. 👂
If you are diffusing or using oils for yourself while your pets are around, make sure there is an open door or window so they can leave.
Do you know any cat that will stay put when it doesn't like something going on? I didn't think so. With all the hype going around about essential oils and cats, I understand people are very sensitive and cautious. Good, I'm glad you are.
-----
The three most important things when being cautious on behalf of your pet while using oils are to check the QUALITY of oil (not all are created equal), letting your pet CHOOSE, and providing an OUT.

Lavender
Everyone has heard of Lavender. It is frequently referred to as "the Swiss army knife of Oils."
Well, just as lavender can be calming to you and me, it can be to your animal as well.
OTHER USES.
* Soothes skin
* Great before going outside
----//----
DIY hack
Make your own Skin Soothing Essential Gel Recipe for your animal!
- approximately 2 oz. of water-based gel (aloe vera)
- 5-20 drops of essential oils (max of 5 different oils)
**make sure you collaborate with your animal about which oils!
- whisk together and you are done!
Apply this calming gel to underbelly or any sensitive skin areas when needed.
Cedarwood & Geranium & Frankincense
-----
Cedarwood → Can be calming and grounding.
Frankincense → Incredibly grounding. Calming. Soothing to the skin.
Geranium→ Mix with Cedarwood and Lavender for an outdoor spray. Supports healthy skin. Can be balancing and grounding.
-----
DIY Collar for Dogs
1 cup of water
5 drops Lavender
2 drops Citronella
1 drop Cedarwood
2 drops Geranium
Mix in a bowl, put in your pet's collar, soak for 5 minutes, remove from liquid, and then let it dry before using.
***Make sure you listen to your animal and that they approve of the whole concoction first.
Citrus Fresh™
Citrus Fresh is relaxing and calming and it smells SO good. Think citrus with a hint of mint.
Ever tired of that "dog" or "cat" smell?
To help with pet odors, diffuse this blend around the house or wherever the litter box is located. You can also create a spray and use it on your furniture. If you notice your pet is avoiding the Citrus Fresh spray, you can either use that to your advantage (to keep the cat off the couch) or switch to a different oil to freshen the air such as Purification, Lavender, or anything else you enjoy.
To create your room freshening spray, add 20 drops of Citrus Fresh or your oil of choice to distilled water in a 4 oz spray bottle.
______________________________________
Single oils contained in the Citrus Fresh blend:
- Orange brings peace and happiness to the mind and body.
- Tangerine is calming to the nervous system.
- Mandarin promotes happiness. It is also refreshing, uplifting, and revitalizing.
- Grapefruit is balancing and uplifting to the mind.
- Lemon promotes health and physical energy.
- Spearmint is uplifting to one’s spirit.

Supplements for your pets!
*While these products are not labeled for ingestible use in animals, I know many members have used these to support their pets' overall health. Here are some of the popular ones our members have used.
This class wouldn't be complete without talking about one of our most beloved products. NingXia Red is 25% NingXia Wolfberry puree, which is a wellness-supporting superfruit with an incredibly high antioxidant rating. Antioxidants make for an unfriendly environment for free radicals. If you don't know the effects free radicals have on your body, you should google it.
This dietary supplement helps support normal blood sugar levels, provides support for normal eye health, cellular function, and energy levels. It’s a supplement that provides overall support to your animal to help them be their best selves.
Other favorites are Sulfurzyme, Omegagize, and Agilease.
Sulfurzyme capsules - Ingredients help to maintain the structure of proteins, protect cells and cell membranes, replenish the connections between cells, and preserve the molecular framework of connective tissue. *Be sure to purchase the capsules to avoid added sweeteners.
OmegaGize³™ - combines the power of three core daily supplements-omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin D-3, and CoQ10 (ubiquinone). These supplements combine with our proprietary enhancement essential oil blend to create an omega-3, DHA-rich fish oil supplement that may support general wellness. Used daily, these ingredients work synergistically to support normal brain, heart, eye, and joint health.
Agilease - Does anyone have old dogs that like to be active!? This is good for pets that may experience a natural, acute inflammation response in their joints after exercise. AgilEase™ is a joint health supplement that’s perfect for healthy individuals (and pets) who are looking to gain greater mobility and flexibility through the reduction of inflammation.
Oral Hygiene
You need to clean your pearly whites, and so do your pets.
Dentarome Plus toothpaste is safe to use with dogs.
****IMPORTANT**** Thieves Dentarome Ultra and Thieves AromaBright Toothpaste contain xylitol which can be toxic to dogs.
Effective brushing unbinds bacteria-laden plaque from the surface of teeth. Rinsing afterward is a key step to make sure that bacteria leave your mouth for good. Since you can't make your doggy swish and spit, lead your pet to water for a drink after brushing.
DIY - Pet Oral Care Spritzer
Add one capful of Thieves Mouthwash to a 4 oz bottle and fill with water.
For fresh breath, spray in your pet's mouth once a day.
*While these products are not labeled for animal use, I know many members have used these with their animals for oral care.
