For every area of wellness we have an answer for you.
The best essential oils in the world.
The essential oils are life-enhancing gifts from the plant kingdom, revered for centuries for their restorative properties to body, mind, and spirit. They are the foundation for every other product we offer. They are available as "single" oils or blended in unique formulas. We even have essential oils that no one else in the world has.
Gary Young, ND has created special kits of our most popular oils to make it easy to start using and exploring essential oils right away, like the Every Day Oils Collection. The Raindrop Technique has helped many with all sorts of physical challenges. You can find out more about our Raindrop Kit at the right.
Here is the story of how one of our essential oils blends came to be:
The story starts in 1989 or 1990 in Kansas where Gary Young was teaching a class. One of the people in the audience was a very skeptical medical doctor who remarked that all of this was snake oil and of no value. Gary responded by inviting the doctor to bring in his toughest patient – the one he was having the most trouble with – after class.
The doctor came back with a red-faced, overweight gentleman of 70+ years of age. He could hardly make it up the stairs and was breathing heavily. The doctor said that for twenty years he had been trying to get this patient’s blood pressure to normalize – without success. Gary took out his case of essential oils and started working on this man. I don’t know how he applied them. I’m sure he was working on the feet, but Gary never went into detail about application methods in this instance. Most likely Gary also rubbed oils over the mans heart.
Within an hour and a half, the man’s blood pressure was normal and it stayed that way for many months. Gary recorded the oils and proportions of them that he used at the time and that became the blend of Aroma Life.

The best products for cleansing.
Because cleansing the digestive tract is the first step to the elimination of toxins and enhancing nutritional uptake, Gary Young formulated powerfully effective but gentle cleansing formulas to support this most important phase of promoting health. The Cleansing Trio is highly recommended to get you started in enhancing your digestive system. Be sure to drink plenty of water to help with the elimination process. Another great product is Digest + Cleanse.
Cleansing your body on the inside and regenerating digestive function is probably the most important first step in getting healthier.
The very best supplements enhanced with essential oils.
We know that nutrition is the single most important factor in promoting health and longevity. For this reason, Gary Young produced and clinically tested specially formulated vitamins and supplements, which are uniquely designed to be digested and absorbed where they are needed. The essential oils in these supplements also enhance their effectiveness many times over!

So many people are experiencing better results with our products over other nutritional choices in just 90 days. With Young Living's Core Essentials Complete working parents, personal trainers, active athletic types, young adults and busy career people are seeing and feeling a difference. Why is that?
Now is the time to embrace a program that will address both your immediate cellular needs and motivate you to understand that healthy lifestyle is more than vitamins and a little exercise.
Dr. Tom Reed is a double board certified medical and surgical specialist. In the course of his twenty-six year practice he has encountered a wide variety of medical problems including diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, various forms of cancer, and musculoskeletal disorders just to name a few.
Dr. Reed encourages the use of Young Living essential oils as well as their oil-enhanced products including the Core Essential Complete Program to promote a nutritionally sound and toxin free environment for the body.
The Core Essentials Complete program is what Dr. Reed used in a clinical trial where nearly 80% of Type 2 Diabetics were set free from their oral diabetic medications, as well as high blood pressure and high cholesterol medications in just ninety days.
Dr. Reed says in his book, "GET EXCITED! GET HEALTHY! GET CORE ESSENTIALS COMPLETE!" It is a key to long term health.

Synthetic fragrances should be avoided. A classic case of a synthetic fragrance causing widespread damage occurred in the 1970's. AETT appeared in numerous brands of personal care products throughout the United States. Even after a series of animal studies revealed that it caused significant brain and spinal cord damage, the FDA refused to ban the chemical. Finally, the cosmetic industry withdrew AETT after allowing it to be distributed for years. How many other toxins masquerading as preservatives or fragrances are currently being used in personal care products? Just another good reason to use our personal care products.

The very best enzymes.
Our body needs enzymes to perform every function in our body. As we get older
our body produces less enzymes and that is why it is critical that we supplement them. Our enzymes work so much better because all of them are infused with our essential oils.
“Life ends when the worn-out metabolic enzyme activity of the body drops to such a low point that it is unable to carry on vital enzyme reactions. Old age and debilitated metabolic enzyme activity are synonymous.”
Dr. Edward Howell
“By 1982, some 1,400 diseases, each due to a defect in a single gene, had been described in medical literature… For nearly 200 of them, the disease is known to be due to a deficiency or malnutrition of a single enzyme.”
Arthur Kornberg, Nobel Prize winner
Our enzymes include:
Allerzyme - Formulated to combat allergies, gas, fermentation, fatigue, and irritable bowel syndrome.
Detoxzyme - Assists in the complete digestive process, helping to detoxify and promote cleansing, which is essential for maintaining and building health. It facilitates remarkable absorption of nutrients from food and supplements, thus providing increased energy levels and optimal health.
Essentialzyme - Promotes digestion and assists in the assimilation of nutrients. Helps to re-establish proper enzyme balance in the digestive system and throughout the body, helps improve intestinal flora, and may also help retard the aging process. It helps to improve and aid digestion which in turn means more energy and vitality.
Essentialzymes 4 - Animal and plant based enzymes help the body to more completely break down problematic foods such as high fats and excessive starch. The dual time-release technology releases the animal and plant based enzymes at separate times within the digestive tract for optimal absorption of key nutrients and amino acids. It helps to improve nutrient absorption and unlocks key food minerals and improves energy derived from foods. It helps with proper fat, protein, fiber, and carbohydrate breakdown and digestion.
Because all of these are so good and do so much good for you what I do is I rotate them to get the benefit from each and every one.
This is probably the most amazing skin care system available anywhere at any price. The reason is that we have brought together three health supporting technologies which have not EVER been used together until NOW.
1. Enzymes which are scientifically proven to REPAIR DNA. (There are a few other cosmetic companies which are also using this technology.)
2. Liposomes - these are fats which help in the absorption of nutrients and other molecules into the cells. We use this technology in our toothpaste and mouthwash. With the A.R.T. system, the liposomes help take the molecules through the outer layers of the skin, deep into the tissue below.
3. Essential Oils - adding the essential oils of Frankincense, Sandalwood, Melissa, and Chamomile generates a quantum leap in the care and protection of the largest of our organs - our skin. Studies have proven that Frankincense and Sandalwood reduce the risk of cancer.
Dr. Jaime Matta, MD, has done studies which show that Sandalwood showed up to a 66% increase in DNA repair and Frankincense showed up to a 36% DNA repair capability, and, most importantly, blocks chronic inflammation.
The purpose of the products is to repair the DNA of the skin, thicken the skin, increase the amount of collagen under the skin to give it a fuller, healthier, less wrinkled look, and reduce the risk of developing skin cancer.
Prevention is so important. Regular "health insurance" is not what it's cracked up to be. Here is a good example why.
"My husband battled diabetes for years. His care
during the last two years of his life used all his
retirement money, the equity in the house, the
savings and some of my retirement funds. It has
taken me 15 years to get back to the financial
position I was in when I met him, even though he
was covered by two insurance plans."
- Vicky Hansen, Fort Collins, Florida
Air Purification
The best way to purify the air in your home is to diffuse essential oils. As of a few years ago, it was documented that essential oils produce the highest level of oxygenating molecules of ANY SUBSTANCE KNOWN TO MAN. So when we think about that, that we can get actually get oxygen from the oil, it's quite exciting. Now not only can we get oxygen from the oils, but we also get negative ions and we get ozone. Can bacteria live in ozone? No. Can bacteria live in a negative ion environment? No.
The Benefits of Diffusing Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils
1. Increased cell oxygen.
2. Increased secretions of endorphins.
3. Increased secretions of antibodies.
4. Increased production of ATP (energy fuel used by cells).
5. Increased secretions of seratonin.
6. Increased secretions of hormones.
7. Increased histamine release, which speeds up the healing process.
8. Increased circulation and supports immune function.
9. Increased conversion of amino acids and proteins.
10. Helps in dealing with emotional trauma.
11. Helps in promotion of secretion and receptivity of human growth hormone (HGH).
12. They smell wonderful.
Our amazing Thieves line
Thieves® was created based on research about four thieves in France, during the 15th century plague, who protected themselves with cloves, rosemary, and other aromatics while robbing plague victims.
The proprietary Thieves® oil blend was university tested and found to be highly effective in supporting the immune system and good health.
It is considered anti-plague as it was used by 15th century thieves, who rubbed oils on themselves to avoid contracting the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead and dying. When apprehended, these thieves disclosed the formula of herbs, spices, and oils they used to protect themselves in exchange for more lenient punishment.
Our Thieves cleaner is not only non-toxic but it contains the powerful
germ-fighting properties of Thieves oil, transforming cleaning into a
healing activity! It is very concentrated so a bottle goes a long way. You can use it to clean everything. Contains ingredients from renewable plant and mineral sources, vegetable-based surfactants compliant with the Green Seal and EPA Design for Environment (DfE) standards, Thieves and lemon essential oils for extra cleaning power. Bottle is 100% recyclable. Thieves oil blend was tested at Weber State University in Ogden, Utah for its potent antimicrobial properties. Thieves was found to have a 99.96 percent kill rate against airborne bacteria. The oils in the blend are highly antiviral, antiseptic, antibacterial and anti-infectious. This cleaner even has a pleasant smell. You won't have any problem with toxic fumes like there are with so many cleaners on the market today.
We have a whole line of Thieves products:
* Thieves Lozenges - when you feel a cough or sore throat coming on
* Thieves Spray - It is ideal for use on door handles, toilet seats, and any surface that needs cleaning. The small one ounce bottle is also the perfect size for any kind of traveling.
* Thieves bar soap
* Thieves toothpaste - I love the Dentarome Ultra, have noticed much improved whitening of my teeth. Contains well-proven ingredients - thymol and eucalyptol - found in clove and thyme essential oils, along with gentle, odor-absorbing baking soda. Also contains the powerful oil blend of Thieves®, which was the subject of research published in the Journal of Essential Oil Research.
*Thieves mouthwash - Contains a special formulation of essential oils that gives you incredibly fresh breath. The unique liposome technology (using soy-derived lecithin) binds the essential oils to the mucous membrane inside the mouth for longer-lasting effects on teeth and gums.
* Thieves wipes - Tired of using dirty sponges you have used a hundred times, only to spread the dirt around on the surfaces in your home? Try our Thieves Wipes! They are ideal for use on door handles, toilet seats, and any
surface that needs cleaning. Simply use and throw away.
Toxic mold is a big problem in homes. In fact it is reported that 50% of homes in the United States have toxic mold. Our Thieves Essential Oil Blend and Thieves Cleaner are the best way to eliminate toxic mold.
Research at Weber State University has shown that out of 67 oils tested 66 of them were powerful anti-bacterial agents. Oregano, cinnamon, Mountain savory, ravensara, and peppermint were all more powerful as anti-bacterial agents than Penicillin or Ampicillin. Thieves was shown to be 60 percent higher in activity against bacteria, germs, and anti-microbial action than either Ampicillin or Penicillin!
When it comes to supplements one of the most important aspects is if your body can utilize what you are putting in it. This is called bioavailability. You want a high level of bioavailability or most of what you are putting in your body is not able to be used and is simply going out the other end. Essential oils are in all of our products because they make a world of difference. They greatly enhance bioavailability as is shown with the example of just two of our products.
Our product Sulfurzyme was tested by a third party laboratory against a very high quality competing MSM product. The results showed that the competitive product was 16% bioavailable while Sulfurzyme was 96% bioavailable.
Before putting essential oils in our MultiGreens product, there was a 42% blood absorption in 24 hours. After adding essential oils to MultiGreens, blood absorption increased to 64% in 30 minutes and 86% in one hour. The conclusion is that the cells were now receiving nutrients that they had previously not been able to assimilate. No other super green food supplement can make this claim. (Essential Oils Desk Reference, 1st Edition, p. 205)
Watch this movie to see why Essential Oils work so well.
Many say that they see what they feel are "miracles" with our products. Our products not only help people but also help animals to be able to regain their health. Many animals that veterinarians no longer could help and felt would have to be put to sleep have been able to regain health with the use of our products. These include horses, dogs, cats even birds and farm animals. When you give the body what it needs, even the body of one of God's furry creatures, the body is able to heal itself.
Here are just two examples of "miracles" from our team members. One of our team members had back pain for 43 years. Then he discovered Young Living. His wife applied different essential oils to his back one evening and he stated that overnight the pain disappeared and has not returned in the ten years since the oils were first applied.
Another instance is when a naturopathic doctor put the essential oil blend of Valor on a patient. This was the first time this doctor had tried one of our oils. The doctor then went away for a few minutes to get something. When he came back the patient's spine had adjusted itself. He was amazed.
Young Living's oil was used in this study.
Frankincense kills bladder cancer cells
United Press International
03-18-09
OKLAHOMA CITY, Mar 17, 2009 (UPI via COMTEX) -- Enriched extract of the Somalian frankincense herb Boswellia carteri has been shown to kill off bladder cancer cells, U.S. researchers said.
H.K. Lin and his team at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center and Oklahoma City VA Medical Center evaluated frankincense oil for its anti-tumor activity in bladder cancer cells.
The study authors investigated the effects of the oil in two different types of cells in culture: human bladder cancer cells and normal bladder cells.
The study, published in the BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, found that frankincense oil is able to discriminate between normal and cancerous bladder cells in culture, and specifically kill cancer cells.
Gene analyses were performed to determine how frankincense oil affects bladder cancer cell survival and the researchers found that the oil suppresses cancer cell growth by arresting cell cycle progression and induces bladder cancer cell death by activating multiple cell death pathways.
"Frankincense oil may represent an inexpensive alternative therapy for patients currently suffering from bladder cancer," Lin said in a statement.
Excerpt from article - Frankincense: Could it be a cure for cancer?
February 9, 2010
Immunologist Mahmoud Suhail is hoping to open a new chapter in the history of frankincense.
Scientists have observed that there is some agent within frankincense which stops cancer spreading, and which induces cancerous cells to close themselves down. He is trying to find out what this is.
"Cancer starts when the DNA code within the cell's nucleus becomes corrupted," he says. "It seems frankincense has a re-set function. It can tell the cell what the right DNA code should be.
"Frankincense separates the 'brain' of the cancerous cell - the nucleus - from the 'body' - the cytoplasm, and closes down the nucleus to stop it reproducing corrupted DNA codes."
Working with frankincense could revolutionize the treatment of cancer.
Jeremy Howell reports for Middle East Business Report on BBC World News.

Just some of the exciting results that have been documented.
A gentleman had cancer, Adenocarcinoma of the colon. Adenocarcinoma is commonly associated with lung cancer, adenocarcinoma is a type of cancer that develops in the cells lining of internal organs, such as the the lungs, breasts, colon, prostate, stomach, pancreas, and cervix. This gentleman had the primary lesion in the colon, which metastasized (antigen was 210 IU mL, healthy is around 5). The antigen went down to 18 with treatment of frankincense in 16 days!!! Metastasis reduced in 21 days, and in another 3-4 weeks it was basically gone.
A woman had stage 4 breast cancer – 9X12X11cm – which had metastasized to the bone and it had shrunk down to a small ulcer after a few weeks from using frankincense. Tumor now shows no malignancy, only normal cells and is dead, biopsies from 6 locations. Metastases start to disappear by 2nd
week.
Man had a tumor in his stomach 9x6 centimeter's about the size of a potato and he drank 1 1/2 bottles of Scared Frankincense a day for 28 days and the tumor disappeared. Dr. Lin said the frankincense really moved the toxins out.
More exciting research!
May help to inhibit MRSA
A January 2008 article published in the Flavour and Fragrance Journal and co-authored by Weber State University Microbiologists Craig Oberg and Karen Nakaoka along with Young Living Director of Quality Control Lab Sue Chao and Young Living Founder Gary Young showed that essential oils may offer promise as an alternative therapy for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The study showed that 78 single essential oils inhibited MRSA with lemongrass, lemon myrtle, mountain savory, cinnamon and melissa essential oils having the highest levels of inhibition. The study further showed that 52 essential oil blends inhibited MRSA on some level with Young Living R.C. (a combination of myrtle, Eucalyptus globulus, Eucalyptus australiana, Eucalyptus radiata, marjoram, pine, cypress, lavender, spruce, peppermint and Eucalyptus citriodora oils), Motivation (a combination of Roman chamomile, ylang ylang, spruce and lavender essential oils) and Longevity (a combination of frankincense, clove, orange and thyme essential oils) showing the most promise.
Study: Plant Oils Highly Effective Against Drug-Resistant Bacteria
Jessica Berman | Washington
01 April 2010
Researchers say oils distilled from plants are highly effective against drug-resistant bacterial infections and could prove to be an inexpensive way to combat super-bugs found in hospital settings.
For hundreds of years, different cultures have used so-called essential oils from plants to treat a variety of illnesses from arthritis to skin infections and sore throats.
Now, researchers at the Technological Educational Institute of Ionian Islands in Greece have found that plant oils are a powerful weapon against multi-drug-resistant staphylococcus aureas or MRSA, a bacterium that causes hospital-acquired infections and is dangerous because it frequently does not respond to a range of antibiotics.
Effemia Eriotou is a professor at the Institute in charge of the research project involving plant oils to treat multi-drug-resistant staphylococcus aureas. "We didn't know that essential oils were going to have that a great anti-microbial activity. And it's really amazing that they are killing all these bacteria and yeasts as well," Eriotou said.
In laboratory experiments, the research group tested a variety of essential oils from eight plants, including thyme, basil, peppermint and cinnamon. Eriotou says they all had some anti-bacterial activity, but essential oil from thyme - a spice frequently used in Mediterranean cooking - killed almost all of the bacterium in a petri dish within an hour. Almost as effective was cinnamon oil.
Eriotou says researchers tested essential oils against drug-resistant staph after seeing what happens when the spices are added to foods. "They do not have any bacterial growth in those cheese[s], whereas when we tested different cheese types in the lab, we did have bacteria. When we have those plants in there, we see no harmful bacteria. And that's how we got started with this whole work," Eriotou said.
The research on essential oils was presented this week at the Society for General Microbiology meeting in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Additional exciting research on essential oils
PUFAs (polyunsaturated fatty acids) form the phospholipid membranes of almost every cell in the body and can be easily disrupted by free radicals. Karesh Youdim and his colleagues at the Scottish Agricultural College tested the ability of essential oils to preserve DHA levels in the brain of 100 animal subjects. They fed them a daily dose of thyme oil over the course of their lifetime, 28 months. The researchers achieved dramatic results. Thyme oil dramatically slowed age-related DHA and PUFA degradation in the brain. The essential oil of thyme was able to partially prevent brain aging through protection of essential fatty acids. An analysis of the data showed that the DHA levels in 28 month-old animals' brains was almost the same as that of 7 month-olds. In human terms, this was equivalent to an 80-year-old having the brain chemistry of a 20-year-old! Thyme essential oil also preserved levels of PUFAs in the animals' hearts, livers, and kidneys, while at the same time raising total antioxidant levels, including glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase.
European research suggests that helichrysum dilates the liver ducts and facilitates the release of toxins and poisons from the system.
A study at the University of Buenos Aires found that sandalwood essential oil inhibited the replication of Herpes Simplex viruses-1 and -2.
Exciting information on Lemongrass. This talks about the lemongrass herb but remember that Lemongrass essential oil is so much more powerful than the herb. Like 50 to 75 times more powerful.
Excerpt from article by Allison Kaplan Sommer
A drink with as little as one gram of lemongrass contains enough Citral to prompt cancer cells to commit suicide in the test tube, according to Israeli research. At first, Benny Zabidov, an Israeli agriculturalist who grows greenhouses full of lush spices on a pastoral farm in Kfar Yedidya in the Sharon region, couldn't understand why so many cancer patients from around the country were showing up on his doorstep asking for fresh lemongrass. It turned out that their doctors had sent them.
It all began when researchers at Ben Gurion University of the Negev discovered last year that the lemon aroma in herbs like lemongrass kills cancer cells in vitro, while leaving healthy cells unharmed. The research team was led by Dr. Rivka Ofir and Prof. Yakov Weinstein, incumbent of the Albert Katz Chair in Cell-Differentiation and Malignant Diseases, from the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at BGU.
Citral is the key component that gives the lemony aroma and taste in several herbal plants such as lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus), melissa (Melissa officinalis) and verbena (Verbena officinalis). According to Ofir, the study found that Citral causes cancer cells to "commit suicide: using apoptosis, a mechanism called programmed cell death." A drink with as little as one gram of lemongrass contains enough Citral to prompt the cancer cells to commit suicide in the test tube.
The BGU investigators checked the influence of the Citral on cancerous cells by adding them to both cancerous cells and normal cells that were grown in a petri dish. The quantity added in the concentrate was equivalent to the amount contained in a cup of regular tea using one gram of lemon herbs in hot water. While the citral killed the cancerous cells, the normal cells remained unharmed.
The findings were published in the scientific journal Planta Medica, which highlights research on alternative and herbal remedies. Shortly afterwards, the discovery was featured in the popular Israeli press.
Research on Sage essential oil
Researchers in Iran have conducted a clinical trial investigating the effects of sage leaf extract on hyperlipidemia. This condition consists of abnormally elevated levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol, triglycerides and other factors that can lead to cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of men and women in the United States with about 500,000 people dying from the disease each year.
The study demonstrated some exciting potential wellness benefits of sage, with participants’ triglycerides, LDL and total cholesterol dropping even as their HDL (good) cholesterol levels increased.
Healthy emotions have a lot to do with good health. Many notice that once they deal with emotional issues the physical issues oftentimes disappear.
Applying the Feelings Kit in Your Daily Life
by David Stewart
(Based primarily on notes taken on Gary Young's talk September 19, 2008, at the first Young Living European Convention, Vienna, Austria)
It has been said that when there is a conflict between reason and feeling, human beings will always side with feeling. According to Gary Young, "99% of life's decisions are made from feelings." Therefore, if you want your life to be guided by good decisions that lead to health, happiness, and fulfillment, you need to be aware of and in control of your present feelings and to learn how to release the repressed emotions of the past.
Most of our feelings from day to day are not responses to current happenings. They originate from the programming in cellular memory that was imprinted by the emotional experiences of our past that we were unable to understand, process, and resolve at the time.
These forgotten traumatic experiences function as live programming in our bodies, affecting every aspect of our lives and particularly in the area of how we make decisions. When our thoughts are limited by fears, lack of self-worth, and not feeling good enough for more or better, we make decisions that limit our success. Limited thinking leads to limited decisions that lead to a limited life far short of the God-given potential we actually possess.
By focusing on fixing your feelings, you can fix most aspects of your life--physical, mental, and spiritual. Essential oils are perfect vehicles to help you in this task because their molecules pass directly to the emotional brain and can bring us into contact with the issues we have long forgotten and enable us to deal with them and resolve them once and for all. When we clear our emotional baggage, we clear the way to manifest our true and highest potential.
According to Gary Young, "Thought equals frequency. Essential oils absorb our thoughts. They are registered in the oils as intent. Intent is directed energy. When you apply an intent-energized oil on your feet they can saturate all of your cells within 60 seconds, stimulating creative thinking and pushing negative energy out of the cells, thus increasing the frequencies of the cells throughout the body. In that uplifted state you can create a new desire to be better tomorrow. You have no limitations but those you choose to accept."
Gary says, "Use the Feelings Kit. Apply feeling oils before work and every night before bed. Do this for 30 days and you will change your life." The Feelings Kit, contains six oil blends: Valor, Harmony, Forgiveness, Release, Present Time, and Inner Child.
Here is how Gary instructed us to use them at the Vienna Convention:
VALOR
Put Valor Oil on the soles of both feet at nighttime along with Highest Potential Blend. These blends are effective to erase limited thinking. Valor balances and equalizes the body's energies thereby increasing oxygen intake to the pineal glandthe seat of our higher intelligence and intuitive faculties. You will wake up in the morning more self assured and more alive to start the day.
HARMONY
Massage one drop of Harmony Oil on each of the energy center points of your body. There are seven of them along the spine: Coccyx, Sacrum, Lumbar, Dorsal (heart), Cervical (where neck meets shoulders), and Medulla (hollow place at center base of skull), and Pineal (center of forehead). You can also massage Harmony on the crown of the head. Harmony balances the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems which, in turn, gives us progressive creativity and feelings of confidence. "The biggest sin is not having confidence in yourself," says Gary, "He who lacks confidence lacks life."
FORGIVENESS
Apply Forgiveness Oil around the navel with the right hand going clockwise several times and think of situations where you need to forgive yourself or others. We beat up on ourselves, but everyone makes mistakes. Yet we struggle to forgive our own mistakes and those of others. Unforgiveness is one of the most common roots of physical, mental, and spiritual disease. Unforgiveness does not make the offending party sick. It makes us sick. Forgiveness is for our own benefit. It is accomplished in five steps. (1) Forgive yourself for allowing the person to affect your health and happiness. (2) Forgive the other person for any harm he or she may have caused you. (This need not be done directly with the person being forgiven, but is an inner adjustment on your part.) (3) Give the other person permission to forgive you. (4) See the good in the situation. (5) Be thankful for the experience and the lesson it taught you. Inhale and apply Forgiveness Oil while going through these steps and repeat as often as necessary to clear the feelings of unforgiveness.
RELEASE
Negative energy goes into the blood and then into the liver for cleansing where the toxins can remain trapped. Thus, the liver becomes a storage place for anger, resentment, bitterness, hatred, jealousy, envy, addictions, and a host of destructive feelings. Apply a few drops of Release Oil on your tongue to release the poisons of stored emotions from the liver. Rub Release over the liver area. Drink lots of pure water and do a liver cleanse.
PRESENT TIME
When we live in the past or dwell on the future, we are not being productive in the present. Energize three drops of Present Time by making clockwise circles on the oil in the palm of your hand and then apply it to your thymus (the gland just under your sternum or breastbone). Besides keeping you focused on the tasks of today, this can also help you financially by increasing your abundance consciousness in the present.
INNER CHILD
"When you are a child all things are possible. There are no limitations," says Gary Young. "When you find your inner child, you have found your true self. The child in you is your creativity." Apply one drop of Inner Child onto the pad of your thumb and then place your thumb onto the roof of your mouth. This opens the cranial sutures and stimulates the pineal, pituitary, and other organs of the emotional brain that occupy the space just above the roof of your mouth. Walking backwards while you have your thumb in your mouth looks stupid but it changes the rotation in the pelvis, elongating the spine, and decompressing the discs in your back. Thus, you can clear the nerve channels for energy to flow smoothly throughout your brain and body.
In conclusion, Gary said, "Use the Feelings Kit morning and night for 30 days. You will feel enthusiastic. Your life will be full of excitement. And people will be drawn to you like a magnet."

Since the recent outbreak of bed bug infestation, many remedies have been tried with little to no success of destroying the eggs. After Word War II, the problem of bed bugs had virtually disappeared from America, because action was taken using DDT. But DDT was a deadly carcinogenic that destroyed the soil and everything else, and so it was outlawed. Now, the bed bugs are escalating because of global travel; the increase of homeless and underground communities; the popularity of “Flea” markets and 2nd-hand merchandise; and worst of all, the bed bugs have become Super Bugs in that they have mutated from the DDT!
Oil lovers prefer the Eco-friendly approach, and research shows that tree oils work best against parasites and menacing insects. Gary Young touts the praises of Palo Santo oil as the first choice for insect repellant. This Ecuadoran tree develops a resin to protect against infestation, and it is from that resin that Young Living distills the Palo Santo oil. Eucalyptus has been used historically for bed bugs, and Eucalyptus Blue is the first anti-viral Eucalyptus Oil. Native American Indians relied on pine needles and Cedarwood chips in their mattresses to ward off ticks and fleas. So, let’s consider a logical approach to attack the bed bugs at home and on vacation:
Bed Bug Spray
10 drops of Palo Santo
6 drops of Eucalyptus Blue
5 drops of Cedarwood
Combine with 4 oz. Distilled Water in a dark glass Spritzer bottle.
To go after nesting eggs, combine Cornstarch or Baking Soda in Cotton Tea bags with Palo Santo, Eucalyptus Blue and Cedarwood. Place bags on underside of mattress.

“I had a horrible cough for 3 months and finally defined it as my mattress. So I eliminated bed bugs (or something in my mattress) by spraying Thieves cleaner, eucalyptus and purification. Took the same process and used it in my laundry for my bed clothes and PJ's.” ~Vivian in Kentucky
Palo Santo Oil: Palo santo (Bursera graveolens) comes from the same botanical family (Burseraceae) as frankincense, although it is found in South America rather than the Middle East. Like frankincense, palo santo is known as a spiritual oil, traditionally used by the Incas to purify and cleanse the spirit from negative energies. Even its Spanish name reflects how highly this oil is regarded: Palo santo means "holy wood" or "sacred wood." The resin forms only after the tree is down for 5 years, and this resin from which the oil is extracted, protects the tree from various parasites.
Eucalyptus Blue Oil: Eucalyptus Blue has a fresh, invigorating aroma that supports normal breathing and soothes tense muscles. This essential oil is grown and harvested in Ecuador. This is the first form of Eucalyptus that is also anti-viral. This essential oil contains high levels of the powerful constituents eucalyptol and alpha-pinene, and follows in the same tradition as a repellant to insects.
Cedarwood Oil: Cedarwood (Cedrus atlantica) has a warm, balsamic, woody aroma. It is relaxing and soothing when used for massage, and has long been used as a beneficial ingredient in cosmetic preparations for oily skin. Cedarwood has an approximate ORAC of 1,689,996 (TE/L) and is the highest form of the cedarwood chips used traditionally to refresh bedding.
Purification® Oil Blend: Purification® is a powerful blend of Therapeutic Grade A Melaleuca (Tea Tree oil); Citronella, Lemongrass, Rosemary, Lavandin and Myrtle essential oils. Purification® can be used directly on the skin to cleanse and soothe insect bites, cuts, and scrapes. When diffused, it helps to purify and cleanse the air from environmental impurities including cigarette smoke and other disagreeable odors.

We don't have a health care crisis. We have a knowledge crisis and a personal responsibility crisis. When you have symptoms it is not because of a lack of a vaccine or the lack of a drug. The terrain (your body) is more important than the germ. Give your body what it needs and it is capable of healing itself as God intended.

High blood levels of omega 3’s reduced sudden cardiac death by 80%!
July 22, 2011— Young Living, the world leader in essential oils, recently made a large donation of the Omega Blue™ supplement to The Heritage School, a residential treatment center for at-risk adolescents in Provo, UT. The donation will provide a year’s supply of the supplement to the school’s entire student body and is valued at more than $20,000. The school’s staff is already attributing improved behavior among the students to Omega Blue.
The omega-3 fatty acids found in Omega Blue—along with a proprietary blend of essential oils—support healthy cardiovascular and brain function. Omega-3s are also believed to stabilize mood and have a positive impact on depression.
“We have had a very encouraging response to Omega Blue,” says Debbie Hamilton, director of health services at The Heritage School. “The quality of the product was recognized immediately by students, parents and staff members. We know that Omega Blue is a major contributing factor to the behavioral improvement we are seeing in many of our kids. Young Living’s generosity toward our school is greatly appreciated.”
