REVIEW TIME.

After anxiously waiting for 7 days, my Essential Rewards (my monthly autoship order through Young Living, where you receive reduced shipping, points for free product and eligibility for free product)order finally arrived. It is like Christmas morning, but monthly. Here is the breakdown of my March order. Some necessities, some refills, some for fun and some for free!

Ningxia Juice
I seriously call this the magic juice. It is so awesome and powerful. AND you only need to drink 1-2 oz a day. What are the benefits? Well let me share. NingXia Red combines the extraordinary wolfberry superfruit with 100 percent pure essential oils (lemon, yuzo, orange, tangerine) in a powerful, whole-body nutrient infusion. The benefits of the legendary Ningxia wolfberry have been sought after for centuries, and ongoing research continues to yield exciting, new health-supporting properties. Enjoy its naturally delicious flavor daily to sustain energy and to replenish key nutrients for long-lasting health and wellness support.

Lavender
Definitely my favorite and I never go without it. The 15ml bottle lasts me about 2 months...I use it that much! They call this oil the swiss army knife of essential oils. If you don't know what to use, use lavender! Sleep, anxiousness, stress, rashes, scrapes..you name it.

Peppermint
Mm mm mm. This oil is so delicious, in smell and taste! The medical properties of peppermint are: anti-inflammatory, antitumoral, anti parasitic (worms), antibacterial, antiviral, anti fungal, gallbladder/digestive stimulant, pain relieving and curbs appetite. Need I say more?

Purification
This purifying blend cleanses and disinfects the air and neutralizes mildew, cigarette smoke, and disagreeable odors. It disinfects and cleans cuts, scrapes, and bites from spiders, bees, hornets and wasps. The oils included in this blend are citronella, lemongrass, rosemary, mealeuca alternifolia (tea tree), lavandin and myrtle. My favorite use of this oil is using it in my vacuum because it completely gets rid of the animal smell in the vacuum and carpet! win!

Deep Relief
This convenient roll-on relieves muscle soreness and tension, soothes sore joints and ligaments, helps calm stressed nerves, and reduces inflammation. This powerful blend contains 9 essential oils, most of which are known for their anti-inflammatory and pain relieving characteristics. Ingredients are: peppermint, fractionated coconut oil, lemon, idaho balsam fir, clove, copaiba, wintergreen, helichrysum, vetiver and palo santo. I bought this oil for my stiff necks and headaches! Can't wait to try it!

Peace & Calming
Another -I can't go without- oil. This is a favorite of Mia and I both! She just starting learning how to sniff and breath in and let me say, its the most adorable thing ever! I love this oil because I really smell the tangerine and orange in it! It is very uplifting and happy! Anytime Mia is having a rough day, I rub it all over her. But my favorite way to use this oil is to put a few drops in the bathtub before bedtime!

Thieves Mouthwash & Toothpaste
Just recently when I have started running out of household essentials, I have decided to replace them with Young Living products! So far, I am not disappointed! Just yesterday I got home from Olive Garden with that impossible to get rid of garlic breath! One brushing and swish of the mouthwash and I could not taste the garlic anymore! Love these products! They are free of alcohol, synthetic dyes, artificial flavors or preservatives, or fluoride. Both products have the essential oil blend Thieves along with peppermint and spearmint. yum!

Idaho Balsam Fir & Marjoram
These two oils were free with my qualifying essential rewards order. Normally, I probably would not have ordered either of the oils but I am so glad that I get the opportunity to try them out! Balsam Fir can be used for throat/lung/sinus infections, fatigue, arthritis, urinary tract infections and scoliosis/lumbago/sciatica. This oil is a great anti-inflammatory. Marjoram has muscle-soothing properties that help relieve body and joint discomfort. It may also help soothe the digestive tract and is a general relaxant.


As always, if you have any questions about essential oils, do not hesitate to contact me! I'd love to hear from you! They really have transformed our way of living. Have I mentioned that I never need to use ibuprofen, ever, anymore? It's a pretty great feeling!
