I feel like there is so much to share about essential oils (EO) that I don’t really know where to start. In this little post I will try to address some FAQ and then give you a quicky guide to getting started! Also, subscribe to my blog to stay tuned for more posts about EO, especially my up-an-coming series of posts called “Essential Moments with Kaia” where I will share my personal success stories with oils!

FAQ
Q: What’s the big idea behind all this hype about EO?
A: People are fired up about a means to get on a path to health and wellness that doesn’t involve medications with bazillions of side effects but instead uses God given plants to heal our bodies. These oils can and do cure everything from scrapes and burns, to warts and moles, to allergies and asthma, and some say even vision and cancer! Personally I’ve have so far been able to get my baby to sleep (to me, that was as good as curing cancer), cure some really bad diaper rashes, kick a wicked stomach bug in less than 18 hours (and before getting on a flight), and so much more! I’m currently working on getting rid of a wart and repairing my vision, I’ll keep you posted on those happenings 🙂
Q: What is so special about Young Living (YL)?
A: All EO are not created equal. Some mere months from today I had no idea that this was the case! Now, from a researched and first hand basis I wholeheartedly know otherwise. Young Living stood out to me because they sell pure theraputic grade EO farmed from virgin fields. This is a step up from organic folks, in fact, it doesn’t get better that this! These oils are 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 – one drop of peppermint oil, for example, is equal to 28 cups of peppermint tea! What’s great about YL as well is they are plum full of resources and when you become a member you get a sponsor (in your case, me!) who becomes your direct line to a world of information!
Q: How do I get started?
A: You have two choices: become a member and buy wholesale forever and ever OR purchase retail (24% more expensive). I recommend becoming a member and doing so with the Premium Starter Kit (cost $150/value $300) which includes 11 of the every day, most popular oils (the Every Day Oils set and Citrus Fresh), a diffuser, sample packs of oils, 2 Nixgia Red to-go packs (an anti-oxidant drink), and some informational pieces. It is an investment but this kit offers the most comprehensive and handy means to getting started. If you are still overwhelmed I am happy to help you one-on-one. You can come to my house and we’ll get you set up! Also, after you order I like to meet with you to give you some handy dandy materials to get you started with your new oily friends.
