Essential Oils by
Young Living
What are Essential Oils?
Essential oils are non water-based
phyto-chemicals made up of volatile aromatic compounds. An essential
oil is a liquid that is generally distilled (most frequently by
steam or water) from the leaves, stems, flowers, bark, roots, or
other elements of a plant.
Essential oils, contrary to the use of
the word "oil" are not really oily-feeling at all. Although they are
fat soluble, they do not include fatty lipids or acids found in
vegetable and animal oils. Essential oils are very clean, almost
crisp, to the touch and are immediately absorbed by the skin. Pure,
unadulterated essential oils are translucent and range in color from
crystal clear to yellow to deep blue.
Essential oils are not the same as perfume or
fragrance oils. Where essential oils are derived from the true
plants, perfume oils are artificially created fragrances or contain
artificial substances and do not offer the therapeutic benefits that
essential oils offer. |
Why Use Essential Oils?
Essential oils have been used for 1,000's of
years for cosmetic purposes, as well as for their spiritually and
emotionally uplifting properties. The chemical composition and aroma
of essential oils can provide valuable psychological and physical
therapeutic benefits. Young Living has always been at
the forefront of bringing this ancient tradition to modern users,
introducing millions to a total mind/body wellness they may never
have dreamed possible.

How Do You Use Essential Oil?
Primarily extracted through careful steam distillation but also
through cold pressing, the purest essential oils are far more
powerful than the botanicals from which they were extracted.
Essential oils contain the true essence of the plant from which it
was derived. Essential oils are highly concentrated and a
little goes a long way.
Essential oils are often used by diluting them with
a carrier oil (ex: sweet almond oil, apricot kernel oil, grape seed oil,
etc..)
and then applying this blend to the skin topically for absorption.
Careful inhalation of the oils can also provide therapeutic
benefit as the oil molecules enter the lungs and are absorbed into
the bloodstream. Many essential oils can also be
ingested, or taken internally.

More About the Uses of
Young Living Essential oils.
Inspire a positive emotional stateLove the way the spritz of fragrance
from a fresh orange peel can brighten
your day? Each essential oil’s complex,
pleasant, and unique scent activates the
limbic system—the brain’s center of
emotion and memory—differently.
Essential oils can be your key to a more
fulfilling and balanced emotional life. To help you rediscover peace, balance,
and joy, use these essential oils and
blends for diffusion, soothing baths,
massage, inhalation, or topical
application:
Enhance your physical wellnessModern lifestyles don’t always create
optimal conditions for physical
wellness. Poor diet, lack of exercise,
and an overabundance of environmental
toxins can leave the body unbalanced and
diminish energy levels. From cleansing
and weight management to supporting
every system of the body, essential oils
and essential oil-infused supplements
can provide the targeted solutions you
need to restore balance and feel your
best. Feel vital every day with
the whole food-based nutrients, powerful
antioxidants, and pure essential oils
found in these products.
- Purify your home
- Harsh chemical formulas aren’t your only
home cleansing option. Enjoy peace of
mind without compromise when you polish
countertops, clean sticky messes, and
cleanse dirty surfaces with the gentle
but effective power of essential oils
and our Thieves® line of products.
Refine your skinPurge chemicals from your beauty routine
and rediscover your natural glow. An
ancient skin care secret, essential oils
can help promote a clear-looking
complexion, soften the appearance of
signs of aging, and nurture
healthy-looking hair. Using only natural
ingredients, these advanced skin and
hair care solutions make it easy to
enjoy the beautiful benefits of
essential oils every day.
- Create deep spiritual awareness
- Incense and essential oils from plants
have always played an important part in
religious and spiritual ceremonies,
helping participants to transcend the
trivial and connect with something
larger than themselves. Research shows
that the pure constituents in these oils
stimulate olfactory receptors and
activate regions in the brain’s limbic
system associated with memory, emotion,
and state of mind. To enhance your
spiritual practice, dilute and apply
meditative, empowering essential oils
directly to wrists, feet, and behind the
ears, or diffuse in a quiet space.
Popular essential oils and blends for
spiritual focus include:
