As parents we want what’s best for our children so having a safe environment is pretty important no matter what age they are. I did my best to reduce toxic chemicals from my home. For years I researched and substituted cleaners, cookware, even personal products that had harmful chemicals for more natural and organic options.
A few months ago I began to do some research on essential oils and a dear friend of mine whom I have known for years has made essential oils a very big part of her and her families life. I knew without a doubt she could answer all of the questions I had about essential oils.
She began to explain how it wasn’t a coincidence that God placed Adam and Eve in a garden, where all of these vital fluids came from the plants all around them. Oils are mentioned all through out the Bible; James 5:14-16 says “Is any sick among you? Let him call on the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
I want to briefly clarify as I continue on about oils that there is power solely in prayer, so please know that no oil, herb, medicine alone can ever take the place of what God can do. He is our ultimate healer and giver of peace. He truly does supply all of our needs.
Oils are to be used like vitamins, you would use them as a supplement for your immune system to help you obtain optimal health. Though oils have powerful healing elements and many medicinal properties it is not a “magic potion”.
Different oil brands will claim that they are safe to diffuse but harmful if you ingest.. think about that for a second - if you are diffusing them, aren’t you ingesting them by inhaling them?
The soil of the Young Living crops where the seeds are planted have never been touched with pesticides or herbicides so toxins are never present in the plants or in the oils; making it safe for you to ingest - internally and externally.
Young Living Oils is the only brand of oils that allow you to meet their farmers and visit their farms. Their slogan is “from seed to seal” and that gives you peace of mind knowing that their oils are not tainted with chemicals and preservatives.
There is literally an oil for just about any physical ailment you may have, acne, headaches, migraines, allergies, sore muscles, joint pain, digestive issues - you name it and there’s an oil for it and what’s amazing is that with some oils you will notice instant relief.
Everyone has a favorite and my favorite oil, is Thieves. The potential benefits of thieves oil include boosting the immune system, promoting respiratory health, and fighting microbes. The individual components of thieves oil have been shown to have antimicrobial properties, promote wound healing, and provide pain relief. Several of the oils found in thieves oil have antimicrobial properties. This means they will help kill bacteria, fungi, or viruses making it a safe and effective disinfectant.

A few of my second favorites, are Peace and Calming, Lavender, and Stress Away. Within a half our of rolling this on my littles ones’ feet at bed time they are out for the count. Once my son has his pajamas on he will come to me with a pair of socks and ask for me to rub these oils on his feet before bed.
If you are looking for safer alternatives for your home and for you and your families health I highly recommend starting with Young Livings Starter Kit. I personally made the decision to use a God given source rather than a chemically formulated product with harmful effects and if that is also your goal consider Young Living.
Once you sign up you want to get your hands on one of these books. This book is a quick reference guide to help you understand what each oil is best for. I hope your oil journey is a smooth one! ;)
