I was introduced to essential oils over 15 years ago by my sister. I went to the local health food store and picked out a lavender and went on my way, even though my sister recommended Young Living. I smelled it occasionally and liked it but did not put much stock in it.

When I was in my 3rd trimester of my second pregnancy in 2009 and was feeling all the feels – exhaustion from having a toddler and working full time, guilt because that toddler was in daycare, fear because my mother-in-law had been diagnosed with cancer and lower back pain keeping me up at night – I ordered the starter kit from Young Living. So begun my life as an oil enthusiast.

Emotional and physical relief

I was blown away by the relief felt on a physical and emotional level and the oils quickly became a way of life for me. Here is a link to the starter kit that was worth every penny!

A little goes a long way with these oils so you get your money’s worth, although I do love lavender so much I need a new bottle every month.

My kids have been raised around Young Living products. We use the household cleaner every day and they know what oils to reach for based upon their needs.

As life has changed over the years, so have my needs. I incorporate Young Living supplements as well to help me manage my mental health, digestive health, endometriosis and menopause.

Complimentary zyto scan

I utilize a zyto scan monthly to see what products would best support me and offer complimentary scans to anyone who is interested in learning more, send me an email at simplyessentialforu@gmail.com if you are curious and want to check it out. Young Living has a seed-to-seal promise that guarantees the quality of their products, you can read more about it here.

At the end of the day, Young Living is what works for me. I respect anything that anyone else does that works for them. The goal is to just be happy with what we have created for ourselves 🙂
