Young Living Essential Oils

Therapeutic quality essential oils are commonly used to promote good health, support the body during times of health related stress and improve the overall sense of wellbeing. Highly concentrated, therapeutic quality essential oils are much higher quality oils that have been specially planted, cultivated, harvested and distilled. They possess unique and profound healing qualities that can have significant results when used appropriately. Because of the importance of using these therapeutic quality essential oils properly, I am in the process of studying to become a clinical aromatherapist which should be completed by the end of this year 2012.

The practice of using essential oils for medicinal purposes has existed for thousands of years, and their healing effects have been widely reported. In addition, they have been known to be particularly helpful in clearing and releasing stuck emotional patterns. Therapeutic grade essential oils both lift and calm the spirit, thus promoting the health and well being of the whole person.

When applied directly to the skin, essential oils penetrate the pores and go into the cell membranes to assist them in remembering their purpose. In many cases, using therapeutic grade essential oils helps increase circulation and strengthen the immune system, thereby activating the body’s self-healing process. But without the exact blend of naturally occurring compounds found in therapeutic grade essential oils, the desired effect that is typically achieved by using essential oils may not be achieved.

Essential oils can be used in a variety of ways:

• Topically
• Through inhalation
• Mixed in bath water
• Cooking
• Through energy work

Benefits may include:

• Pain Relief
• Stress Reduction & Increased Relaxation
• Relief from menstrual cramps
• Support skin repair due to Minor Burns
• Stimulation of the Immune System
• Enhanced Recovery from Injuries
• Cleansing of Infection
• Increased Concentration & Mental Clarity
• Easing of Anxiety & Depression
• Clearing of Negative Emotions & Related Pattern

In my practice I use Young Living Therapeutic Quality Essential oils.
