My Story
I started my journey a few years ago after becoming more aware of products and how they impacted our health. I had a four year cancer battle at a young age and was going through miscarriages and infertility and couldn’t help wonder why. The more I read and have educated myself the more I freaked out. We have made A LOT of changes in our homes and now I am super passionate about helping others make the same changes. It really is just as easy as knowing better and doing better for yourself and your family.
Turns out cutting out the toxins isn’t just a trendy thing to do. For us, it was a necessity for our health. The more I have researched and learned, the more we have kicked out. And we honestly believe our wellness has never been better!
This has become my passion and The Uprise Essential Community is a place where we can share knowledge, recipes, ask & answer questions, just a place to learn more about how to use your Young Living essential oils.
Why Young Living
After doing a LOT of research on oils of all different brands, and trying another brand I made the confident decision to go with Young Living.
This is hands-down one of those cases where you get what you pay for.
Young Living is the only company out there that has what is called the “Seed to Seal” promise, or anything like it. This has such a huge impact, you guys! It means that Young Living controls every single aspect of their production line.
They own their own farms. They plant their own seeds. They cultivate their own crops. They use essential oils on their plants. They oversee everything, literally, from planting the seed to sealing the bottle. They can say with a 100% guarantee that they know what is inside each and every bottle, and that they are pure beyond a shadow of a doubt.
In our house, for the past few years we have been working on living as chemical and additive free as possible.
This. This is why I chose Young Living.
What Are Essential Oils?
The skin is the largest organ in the body, and if I’m going to be consistently using these products on the skin of myself and my loved ones (and breathing them in, and ingesting them), I want to know exactly what I’m getting. YL gives me that peace of mind.
Essential oil is the “lifeblood” of a plant because the oil protects the plant from disease, provides nutrients and helps to fight off anything it doesn’t want. It keeps the plant (or tree, fruit, bark, root, etc.) healthy and functioning at its best!
Essential Oils were mankind’s first medicine! Because really, since God created plants in the beginning of time, oils have been used for health and anointing all throughout Scripture. Today, they are still used to promote health in the body (physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally.) Essential oils are very complex containing hundreds or thousands of different chemical compounds; this is what gives each oil its unique attributes and characteristics. They are quickly absorbed by the body when applied topically. The oils work on every system in the body on a cellular level to assist in the elimination of toxins, and the fragrance of the oils works on the limbic system
Seriously, friends… they are impressive little blessings in bottles!
Therapeutic grade YLEOs do the following:
-reach every cell in your body within 20 minutes when applied topically to the body
-eliminate toxins in your body
-regenerate DNA
-have the capability of passing the “blood-brain” barrier -work on emotions via the limbic system of your brain when inhaled
-release emotional trauma, relax and clear the mind
-transport nutrients to starving human cells
-act as powerful antioxidants
-increase atmospheric oxygen
-remove toxins in the air
-increase ozone and negative ions in the area which inhibit bacterial growth
SO Amazing, right?
What Now?
After learning all of that, you are probably feeling ready to jump in! I’m ready to do it all over again! It’s time to stop putting off living a healthier life.
Today’s the day to decide that you don’t HAVE to expose yourself and your family to so many terrible toxins. You may have been waiting for the perfect time, or all the best information, or certainty that you would use oils if you bought them.
The reality is that starting NOW is the best way to make a change in your life! You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to start. We’ll be there to teach you and encourage you and help you every step of the way. Just make the choice…a few years ago, it made all the difference for me. I want that for you too!
