WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS?

TWO WORDS: PLANT JUICE

Essential oils are little bottles of magical plant juice. I kid, I kid… but sometimes they really do seem magical!!!

Essential oils are all natural liquids that are created from plants. More specifically, they are the aromatic, volatile liquids distilled from plants and come from many different types and parts of plants. Because they are so complex and can consist of hundreds of different and unique chemical compounds, they are able to reach every part of our bodies on a cellular level. Less than 20 minutes after using essential oils, they can be found in every single cell in the body.

Aromatically, they are able to reach the limbic system in the brain, which is where emotions are stored and is why so many people love them to support healthy emotions. They are also able to pass through the blood brain barrier, which supports neurological tissue/function. Essential oils are not medications. They adapt to what a person’s body may need and help to keep our bodies in balance and above the wellness line.

Not all essential oils are created equally, so let’s talk about what makes Young Living the BEST choice when it comes to essential oils.
