April oils bring May health!

This month we will be placing an order for three different essential oils, & you can read about them below!  Peace & Calming, GentleBaby, & Lavender.

Peace & Calming; used to diffuse during Asher's nap, which without fail lulls him to sleep like the sweetest lullaby. Seriously. Every single time.  I also use it for perfume because it smells amazing. Have you ever looked up what ingredients are in perfumes? You should. Peace & Calming is made of 5 different oils & is truly an aid in calming nerves. People even use it for feisty, agitated, or restless animals! It smells HEAVENLY!

Gentle Baby; as we get ready for baby number two, Sa(i)ge to make his/her appearance I am slowly purchasing oils before the birth to have on hand, that way it isn't some huge order in October. Essential Oils come at a price. You get what you pay for... If you purchase outside of Young Living makes sure you take time to research the company's distilling & purity! It's important. You're putting it in YOUR body. It is important.  It's used for Mama & baby during pregnancy & afterbirth.  During pregnancy it can be used to help the skin stretching, reducing stretch marks. It also helps rid acne scars! It's calming affect is also used & amazing for during labor- for Mama & Dad! And, afterbirth is used for colicky baby & just putting baby at ease.

Lavender; the pollen count in Chattanooga is off the charts- literally. So, allergies are so common! Last year we fought them & they were ruthless. Because we didn't load up on tons of medicines last year our bodies are doing a much better job this season responding to them minimally. You can build up your immune system to do this type of wonder, you know. (Lots of water. Lots of rest. Lots of Apple Cider Vinegar baths. Lots of lemon water. Homemade cough syrup. Steamy showers. Etc.) So, this year we have been diffusing Lemon, Peppermint, & Lavender to fight off the ugly symptoms of allergies-- and it has worked miraculously!
EX- Josh had a sore throat yesterday. He drank two big glasses of water with TWO drops of lemon in them & literally minutes later the soar throat was donezo.
Several mornings Asher has woken up with a touch of a fever, runny nose, & red eyes... & after applying Thieves & Lavender, the fever disappears, working like a children's tylenol without the unknown side-affects & helps him BUILD his immunity to harsh seasons!

Lavender can be used for COUNTLESS reasons... it's ammmmazing!  And Thieves, this stuff is gold. It's the "swiss army knife" of essential oils. Highly recommend having this bad boy on hand, always. It smells like Christmas! Read about it. The way it came about is fascinating.

So, these are the three Young Living Essential Orders I am placing this month! I have a whole list of what oils I want before baby Sa(i)ge gets here, so it's pretty fun already ordering things in honor of his/her life!

Please don't hesitate to ask any questions, share any thoughts, or research oils on your own! Their history is deep, their use is endless, their power is real, & their existence if from God above, truly. :)
