RutaVaLa ... Ooh la la!

Having trouble sleeping? Try the RutaVaLa blend!


A bit of this on the bottom of your feet and/or the back of your neck and prepare for some great sleep! 

It does not seem to act the same as some common over the counter meds or prescription meds. It does not just hit you out of nowhere quickly with a hard sleep. It is gentle. It eases in. I do not fall asleep immediately but I get better quality and longer stretches of sleep. 

I even use it on my baby. It has added on average about an extra hour between wakings. If you know my situation with her then you know that is HUGE. She also goes back to sleep very easily and so do I. 

If you have not tried this oil you are missing out.

Until next time ...

FREE, Available, and On Time ... Oh My!!

I am going to make a confession. I love FREE stuff. And, I really really love FREE oils!!!

I also love that when anyone in my family is getting sick, whether getting a tummy bug or a cold or whatever else, I have my needed oils already in hand. I am ready to treat what comes our way as soon as it starts. I have noticed that our illness time seems to be shortened when I start treating immediately with oils.

This is why I signed up with Young Living Essential Rewards program. It does require some commitment, but here are some reasons that I thought this was the BEST option for our family!

Once you sign up and get your Young Living account, you can get set up on the Rewards program. It is an automatic monthly shipment of your favorite products. Why it worked for my family was the flexibility. You can change your process date each month depending on what your needs are. You can also change what ships each month until midnight the day of your process date.

Think of it like an open shopping cart. You can fill it and change it all month according to what would be on your list that you need.

This is a great and practical way to get started with oils. I am not going to lie and will admit that (at least to me) they are expensive!! This way I spend a little bit each month and over time build up my stash. Now after several months of doing this I have everything I need. If I have a need come up I am not waiting a week for shipment of an oil. What would be the point of that? You need it right when you need it and this is the best way to ensure that happens.

So here comes the FREE. When you start your rewards purchasing, you accumulate points. In the beginning 10% of your pv dollars go into your points account. When ever you want to use them you just call Young Living and "cash" them in for free product!! The longer you are on the rewards program the more percentage you accumulate. How awesome is that?

I also want to mention that the shipping is cheaper on rewards orders than standard orders. Even better.

Until next time ...

Making Your Spouse A Believer

One of the first things I hear when I talk to families about oils is this: "I love using them but my husband is not on board with it."

Mine lets me indulge in my oils. He watches them work and says how it is neat. He has wanted to start using them but doesn't really know where to begin.

This past week I thought I would help him out. As the girls and I were leaving for work I told him what oils to use. I got an "okay". But as I was leaving I repeated it several times. He is in graduate school so I suggested applying the Motivation blend and diffusing Lemon to reduce mistakes on school work.

If you know my husband you know he is a really "take it easy" type of guy. I am more the "get 'er done" type girl. Hehe. So imagine my surprise when I got this text message from him while I was at work:

"So today after using the Motivation and Lemon I finished writing 3 papers, cleaned the air filter, got gas, got the gates our of the attic, got milk from Braum's, clipped my nails, took care of the papers on the shredder and am now going to work out. And I went out and got Jamba Juice too!"

We left at 8:45 and this was about 2:00. This made me one happy wife and made him a believer in Motivation (my favorite blend these days)!!

So how do we get our husbands "on board" with oils? Get them to start using them. Let them experience for themselves!

Until next time ...

Natural Nail Polish Remover

I happened to come across a little discovery yesterday.

I was using Lemongrass oil on my feet and put a drop of it on my polished toe to see what it would do. To my surprise the nail polish IMMEDIATELY start melting away! I had to grab a tissue quickly and I swiped over the nail and all the polish came off!

I know that essential oils can digest down toxins. I have seen lemon oil pop a balloon. I have seen it eat through a styrofoam bowl. So, it totally makes sense.

I was so excited because I really don't like the smell of nail polish remover. I found this quicker and easier. No more acetone! I just wanted to pass it along!

Until next time ...

Home Made Facial Cleanser

I recently have been learning about oil cleansing. This is where you do not use soap on your face. You just rub with oil and water to clean. My first thought was, "What about my make up?" Well then I remembered how make up removers are oily. Haha!

When you cleanse with oils you want to use high quality products. This means that for coconut oil you would want to purchase one that is NOT refined and extra virgin and organic. This helps it not clog pores and maintain a great anti microbial property.

I also got avocado oil and almond oil. I used small glass jars (not plastic) to store it in. I put about 15 drops of essential oils in each jar. I used oils to help my skin problems. I chose to mix in Purification, Melaleuca Alterniforlia and Lavender for my break outs.

I mixed up about a cup and a half of coconut oil and added about a tablespoon each of almond oil and avocado oil. I whipped it with a whisk. It made an amazing creamy texture. I put mine into 3 jars. But FIRST I added my drops of oils. I poured the coconut mixture offer the essential oils in each jar and very gently swirled them in.

Viola!! I had another batch I experimented with that I got too runny from too much avocado oil. I left it that consistency and added Frankincense oil for a spot and wrinkle correcting moisturizer. I only dab on a bit before bed and let it soak in overnight. It is amazing!

My skin has never felt better. I was having break outs and having dry flakiness and all sorts of issues. My skin is now glowing and moisturized but not oily.

I will add in that I am using my Clarsonic along with the oil. It is dreamy!!
