Here are 9 of our most popular and versatile everyday oils… Lavender With its fresh, floral scent, Lavender is considered the most universal of all essential oils. Therapeutic-grade lavender oil is highly regarded as a skin and beauty tonic. It’s helpful for facial blemishes, and can also be used to soothe and clense common cuts, bruises, and skin irritations. Lavendar helps the body to relax and enter a deep sleep when rubbed on the bottoms of the feet or inhaled at bedtime. It can also offer relief to sore muscles and muscle spasms, as well as boost stamina. Frankincense Frankincense has been used by nearly every ancient culture for thousands of years. When rubbed on the chest, it gently soothes the respiratory system. Breathing Frankincense can also be beneficial for memory function thanks to its highly oxygenating molecules that also eliminate unwanted airborne germs. Its earthy balsamic scent has calming properties that can increase spirituality and inner strength. For timeless skin, use a few drops in your facial moisturizer. Peppermint Peppermint oil is hailed for supporting digestion. It’s also believed to improve metabolic efficiency and trigger feelings of fullness. Peppermint also has potent relief properties – headaches with a few drops on your temples, fever with a few drops on your neck and bottom of your feet, and muscles wherever there’s discomfort. Its fresh, minty aroma combats mental and phsyical fatigue, and can promote healthy respiratory function. Thieves Founded on the legend of a group of 14th century French thieves who used cloves, rosemary, and other aromatics while robbing plague victims in order to stay immune, Thieves Blend is a powerhouse for your body’s defense system. Diffuse it to detoxify the air in your home, apply it topically to boost immunity, or take a few drops to eliminate germs that cause throat infections, or to relieve symptoms. Thieves is also a remarkable tool for dental care. PanAway Young Living President Gary Young created PanAway after a severe injury to the ligaments in his leg. This proprietary blend of soothing essential oils contains wintergreen, clove, peppermint, and helichrysum and can help ease bone, muscle, back, and join discomfort when rubbed on the affected area. PanAway aids the body’s natural response to irritation and injury. Purification The sweet, refreshing scent of Purification deodorizes and purifies the air. It is one of the most cost-effective germ busting blends for your home. Easily replace moldy, musty and stale smells in an office, car or hotel room with this uplifting scent – just put a drop of Purification on a cotton ball and place it in the air vent. Purification is also a powerful insect repellent and soothes insect bites, cuts and scrapes. Lemon Lemon essential oil has a pleasant, purifying citrus scent that is revitalizing and uplifting. Lemon is great for removing household stains, disinfecting countertops, and even refreshing your laundry. Diffuse Lemon oil to protect your home from airborne bacteria and put a drop in your drinking water for extra vitamin C, to keep your liver clean, and for a boost of the potent antioxidant d-limonene. Peace & Calming With tangerine, ylang ylang, blue tansy, orange and patchouli, this blend is a must for anyone experiencing stress in their life. Peace & Calming contains properties that relax the mind and calm the body. Dilute and spray to settle down hyperactive children. For a good night sleep, rub along your spine and on the bottom of your feet. A few drops under the nostrils will also help with snoring. Valor The blend of spruce, blue tansy, rosewood and frankincense supports the muscular skeletal system of the body, earning much respect from chiropractors who apply it before and after an adjustment. Valor has been known to help those who suffer from stage fright, anxiety, and extreme tension, by rubbing a few drops onto the hands and breathing deeply. To create a deeper sleep, rub on the bottoms of your feet before bed.
