I started using essential oils because I heard from close friends all the good they were doing for them. What got me hooked was the Peppermint oil. When I started using essential oils I was having recurring health issues. It would start at night when my nose would dry out. Later the same night I’d wake up with a sore throat. By morning I had cold-like symptoms that would last about two weeks. This would happen about every six weeks. What I started doing, was inhaling peppermint oil anytime I would wake up at night feeling the dryness in my nose. Since then, I haven’t had the issues I was having before! It was amazing and I was hooked. Today, I use the oils for my whole family. When my kids have the sniffles, I diffuse thieves for them. After about three days, the sniffles are gone and there’s no cold. I use oils for everything, even cleaning.

After I started using oils, I decided to try other brands. I went to local stores, ordered online, I even tried Amazon. 

First of all, be very careful when ordering oils from Amazon. Young Living sells only through the Young Living website. Whether you’re looking for Young Living oils or other brands, you don’t really know what’s inside the oil bottles you’re buying on Amazon. 

Secondly, do your research and try other brands if you want to. I did! What I found was the that quality simply wasn’t the same. I tried my peppermint oil routine with a brand other than Young Living, and I got a headache and just felt icky. With that and other experiences, I decided Young Living was the brand I trusted most. Because of my personal success, I’ve started spreading the news by hosting classes and helping others sign up for Young Living.
