o:daaaaaaay 6 of free oils!

congrats to ariel francis for winning yesterday's orange oil! woop woop!

uh oh, tomorrow is the last day for your chance at a free oil!  not just any oil, these bad boys are 100% pure, therapeutic grade with so many medicinal qualities and they have been a game changer in my home.  a lot of people are skeptical of this giveaway i'm sure.  what's the catch?  honestly, there isn't one!  i've been blessed in this endeavor and i'm so ridiculously passionate about these oils that i'm just itching to get them into the hands of new people, skeptics and believers alike!  i promise i won't be pounding down your door trying to sell you anything.  sometimes i want to be obnoxious and overbearing, simply because i'm so eager to have everyone at least give them a try, but i try and refrain myself haha. the only thing i will do, is offer to get you added to an amazing facebook group that i'm in called apothecary society.  it's a group of 20,000 people who are interested in YL oils, are brand new to them, or are veterans.  it's an opportunity to learn soooo much great info and read testimonies and questions from oil users in a non-salesy way.  you can search topics (ex:migraine) and every thread with the word migraine will pop up.  you'll see which oils are working for some, and which oils aren't for others.  everyone's body chemistry is different, so we won't all have the same success from one specific oil.  in this group we can get ideas on what to try, and how to use them. 

ok i'm rambling.

day 6! 2 more chances to win!  today's oil issssss.....purification!! this little gem is a blend of citronella, rosemary, lemongrass, tea tree, lavandin and myrtle oil.  its stinking awesome <----pun intended.  this bad boy eliminates nasty odors.  i'm talking eliminate, not just mask!  i drop it onto a cotton ball and stick it in my son's diaper genie and it does wonders.  it has lots of other great uses too.  you can rub a drop on the outside of your throat when you have a sore throat, you can lather yourself in this during nasty mosquito season to avoid getting bit.  you can also add a few drops to your laundry that you accidentally let sit in your washer for 5 days. i NEVER do that, but you might.  i'm perfect at laundry and chores.  (convincing?) it will leave your clothes smelling fresh AND it can eliminate stains too!  oh and i've also heard it can do amazing things for pimples and blemishes.

good luck my friends.

 

i want to add one more thing.  i just wanna throw it out there that when i pick the winners, i am being 100% truthful!  no cheating i promise.  i know these are just words but i hope you choose to believe them :) xoxo

o:day 5 of my free oil giveaway!

Sorry this post is showing up so late in the morning.....life happened.  And preschool. And rain. And Wal-Mart.  You know what hasn't happened though? Cleaning, and it needs to. Haha ok back on track...

Yesterday's winner was Rebecca Alden! She has been commenting and sharing posts each day and it paid off.  You could be next!  3 more chances to win. 

Rules:
-non members only
-1 entry for a comment and 1 entry for sharing this post

Today's freebie is a 15ml bottle (the big one!) and is one of my must-haves.  I use it daily, even if just to flavor my water.  Orange!  It's a mood enhancer and it helps cover up a smell of an oil you aren't as fond of when diffusing.  This big bottle has close to 300 drops, so it will last you a LONG time! Good luck!

o: day two of free oils!

i think another name for new years day should be "most productive day of the year".  i woke up with my game face on, and knocked out a ton of things on my business to-do list.  the house was a disaster after christmas and being gone for almost a week, with clothes everywhere and dishes filling the sink.  with all the stuff i got done yesterday morning, i had zero intentions of tackling the mess until monday, but jon came to me and said....let's team up and clean like crazy. umm what? beautiful words coming from the mouth of a hubby. so we went on a cleaning frenzy! all the decorations are down, downstairs is spotless (even cleaned the OUTSIDE of the windows) and laundry is done.  feels so good. we then even went on a family walk/run.  and tomorrow starts round 2 of the 21 days fix. feeling GOOD!

ok now for the oil giveaway.  yesterday's grapefruit oil got snatched up by Tracy Bishop! Congrats Tracy! I tried to post the video in the comments but it only lets me post pix, so i'll try to put it in the post with this blog link.

today's oil is what we call the "swiss army knife of essential oils".  lavender. 

the uses are endless!  most people know of lavender as being a relaxer/sleep aid.  it is! but it does SO much more.  my top 3 uses are:
-adding a drop to my shampoo and mascara to promote hair growth and strength
-rubbing a drop down the bridge of your nose when its stuffy to stop the boogies
-easing discomfort on the skin from a burn, rash or dryness

here are some more uses. comment on my facebook post for your chance to win! the odds are good!

on the first day of giveaways...

happy new year!

one of my resolutions this year is to write more blog posts, so here i am.

i have a long list of goals this year, and one of those goals is to help even more people discover the amazing world of essential oils than i did last year.  it's been amazing to watch people naturally take charge of their health, including myself. i want to step it up even MORE.

so what better way to start off a new year than by giving away free stuff? i feel so blessed to have the knowledge and success in just one year that i do with these oils so i want to spread the love. i wanna get them in the hands of as many people as possible so that you have a chance to experience them and see for yourself. 

today is day one of "7 days of free oil".  i will be giving away one oil a day.  all i ask is that only non-members participate.  check back here each day to see what that days giveaway is and be sure to let your friends know (remember if you refer a friend to me, you get cash if they end up getting a kit).  in order to be in the running, you'll need to comment on my facebook post that has this blog link in it.  if we aren't friends, just send me a friend request :) i'll pick one name at random each morning following. 

in honor of "national hangover day", the first free oil is going to be grapefruit!  i'm making a promise to myself to incorporate this oil into my daily routine.  not only does it taste yummy, but it is so good for you! i'm currently drinking 4 drops of it in my water with 4 drops of lemon oil, a splash of ningxia red and a splash of orange juice. YUM.  here are a few of its benefits:

for these 7 days, i'm also going to include a few short excerpts from an amazing book that i've been reading called "The Essential Oil Truth: The Facts Without the Hype.  It's packed full of info for believers and skeptics alike with no talk of a certain EO company.  Just the facts. 

"Drugs and oils work in opposite ways.  Drugs toxify.  Oils detoxify.  Drugs clog and confuse receptor sites.  Oils clean receptor sites.  Drugs depress the immune system.  Oils strengthen the immune system.  Antibiotics attack bacteria indiscriminately, killing both the good and the bad.  Oils attack only the harmful bacteria, allowing our body's friendly flora to flourish." David Stewart, Ph. D., R.A., The Chemistry of Essential Oils, 2005.  <-------this is a quote from David Stewart's book that Jen Sullivan put in The Essential Oil Truth


that will wrap up day one.  tell you friends, comment on my page and get some oils in your hands for FREE!!!
