Comments Off on Dill Vitality Essential Oil Uses and Benefits

Dill is one of the unsung heros in the essential oil world! Native to Asia, dill has been used as an herbal treatment as far back as 1550 BC, when it was recorded on ancient Egyptian papyrus. Did you know dill is contained in Hildegard’s Medicine Book? Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was known as the first herbalist and naturopath of the middle ages. Dill was found in the tomb of Egyptian Pharaoh Amenhotep II, and its use was also documented by the Ancient Greeks. Dill Vitality has a spicy, fresh scent that is stimulating, revitalizing, and balancing. It is produced by steam distilling the whole dill plant, yielding a fresh herbal essential oil that can be used to enhance the flavor of traditional Russian, European, Asian and Scandinavian dishes.

The Aroma Dome… A Powerful Tool

Comments Off on The Aroma Dome… A Powerful Tool
The Aroma Dome

The AROMA DOME provides a powerful spa-like experience for the intensive inhalation of essential oils. The Aroma Dome is a powerful tool to add to your arsenal of essential oil products and alternative therapies. One of the BEST in my humble opinion. I believe it should be in the home of every serious YL “oiler”! Many of our physical ailments stem from emotional baggage and diffusing essential oils can be a very effective and powerful tool in helping to release negative emotions. Dealing with the emotions FIRST may be the key to unlocking the physical side-effects that emotions can produce. Please DO NOT attempt… – to use the Aroma Dome with adulterated, inferior brands. Most oils on the market are considered “perfume grade” and should not be confused or used in the same way as Young Living’s genuine, premium-grade oils. Doing so with lesser quality essential oils could be harmful … Continue reading →

Making Diffuser Bombs

Simplify diffusing and eliminate a multitude of essential oil bottles laying all around your house, next to your diffusers, by making “diffuser bombs”. Many of us have our favorite DIY blends. We love them so much we diffuse them over and over again, which is a good thing. The problem arises when you end up with your essential oil bottles dispersed throughout the house which can make it time consuming trying to find the right essential oils to put into your diffuser. Making “diffuser bombs” can help eliminate that problem. Diffuser bombs will help reduce essential oil bottle clutter and make preparing your diffuser a whole lot quicker. Simply take your favorite DIY roller bottle recipe or diffuser recipes and add them to small, empty dropper bottles (or repurpose clean, empty 5-ml bottles). You’ll want to multiply the amount of drops depending on the size of the bottle you’re using … Continue reading →

Come Oil with Me is an invitation to join me in a weekly challenge. We’ll learn all about one Young Living oil or blend, one week at a time.   Essential oils are often referred to as “natures living energy”. They are called that for good reason because they can help support and maintain the body, mind and spirit in awesome and amazing ways. At the 2016 Live Your Passion Grand Convention, Gary Young, the founder of Young Living, gave each of us a challenge… to focus on one single oil or blend a week. To learn all about it, to research it, to study it, and most importantly to USE it and experience its benefits first hand… each and every day, for an entire week. And do that for a year. Imagine what that means. Potentially it means that at the end of one year, we would have first … Continue reading →

Harvest Time Cinnamon Spiked Tomatoes

Comments Off on Harvest Time Cinnamon Spiked Tomatoes

Eating cinnamon spiked tomatoes on a hot summer day is one of my favorite memories from childhood. My mom and dad turned our backyard into an organic garden. She and my father spent many a day and night canning the bounty of fruit and vegetables harvested from it. My most memorable and favorite things that came out of that garden was my mom’s cinnamon spiked tomatoes, her peach syrup and apple cobbler. Oh, and how could I forget, the strawberries. Tons and tons of fresh red, ripe, juicy strawberries. Those were the days! Her cinnamon spiked tomatoes were incredibly tasty and so refreshing, especially on hot summer days. And best of all, they’re super easy to make! She said her mother used to make them and she carried on the tradition. They were definitely a family favorite and didn’t last long. While she didn’t have access to our Cinnamon Bark … Continue reading →

Start the day off right!

Comments Off on Start the day off right!

One simple thing that you can do to support your body on a daily basis is to start the day off right with a cup of warm lemon water! Begin by drinking 8 oz. of warm water (not boiling) with the juice from one half a lemon mixed in before breakfast. CAUTION: Don’t put lemon juice in water that’s warmer than 140°F, as this can break down all of the goodness inside. This morning ritual helps thin bile to get it moving. It’s a great way to gently cleanse and detoxify your liver and kidneys*. NOTE: Lemon juice is acidic and can affect teeth enamel. After drinking lemon juice/water be sure to rinse your mouth with plain fresh water! Kick it up a notch with Lemon Vitality! Lemon Vitality essential oil is cold pressed from the rind of the fruit, making it alkaline and not acidic like lemon juice. Add … Continue reading →
