7 Essential oils and 100 solutions free PDF
Small part from the e book below
Let me tell you about the oils I have chosen to talk about in this particular E-Book. I have decided to base myself on a Young Living kit called the ‘Essential 7’ which groups the seven most popular and easy to use oils.
LAVENDER is the most versatile of all essential oils. Therapeutic grade lavender has been highly regarded for the skin, and has been clinically evaluated for its relaxing effects. Wait to see all you can do with this one!
LEMON has antiseptic-like properties and contains compounds that have been studied for their effects on immune function. CAUTION: Citrus oils should NOT be applied to skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight or ultraviolet light within 72 hours.
PEPPERMINT is one of the oldest and most highly regarded herbs for soothing digestion. Jean Valnet, MD, studied peppermint’s effect on the liver and respiratory systems.
JOY —is an exotic blend of Lemon, mandarin, Bergamot, ylang ylang, rose, Rosewood, Geranium, Palarosa, Roman chamomile and jasmine that produces an uplifting magnetic energy and brings joy to the heart
PANAWAY—is a blend of Wintergreen, Clove, Peppermint and Helichrysum. This blend was created by Gary Young following an injury that severely tore the ligaments in his leg.
PEACE & CALMING —is a gentle, fragrant blend of Tangerine, Orange, ylang ylang, Patchouly and Blue Tansy specifically designed for diffusing. It promotes relaxation and a deep sense of peace, helping to calm tensions and uplift spirits
PURIFICATION —is an antiseptic blend of Citronella, Lemongrass, Rosemary, Melaleuca, Lanandin and Myrtle formulated for diffusing to purify and cleanse the air and neutralize mildew, cigarette smoke and disagreeable odors.
THIEVES* —Thieves® was created based on research about four thieves in France who protected themselves with cloves, rosemary, and other aromatics while robbing plague victims. The proprietary Thieves® oil blend was university tested and found to be highly effective in supporting the immune system and good health.
(*) This is where I cheat a little and add another blend to the 7 above mentioned oils. Te Thieves blend is not part of the Essential 7 kit but it should definitely be part of your must have oils. I believe this blend to be one of the most powerful and effective there is for fighting infections and viruses of all kinds and helping support the immune system.
GUIDELINES FOR THE SAFE USE OF YOUNG LIVING ESSENTIAL OILS
1. Always keep a bottle of pure vegetable mixing oil or any pure vegetable oil handy when using essential oils. Vegetable oils dilute essential oils if they cause discomfort or skin irritation. DO NOT USE WATER as essential oils are non-water soluble: using water will only spread the essential oil over a larger area.
2. Keep bottles of essential oils tightly closed and store them in a cool location away from light. If stored properly, essential oils will maintain their potency for many years.
3. Keep essential oils out of the reach of children. Treat them as you would any product for therapeutic use.
4. Do not use essential oils rich in menthol (such as peppermint) on the throat or neck area of children under 30 months of age.
5. Lemon, bergamot, orange, grapefruit, tangerine, White Angelica and other citrus oils may cause a rash or darker pigmentation if applied to skin exposed to direct sunlight or UV rays within 3-4 days of use.
6. Keep essential oils away from eye area and do not put into ears. Do not handle contact lenses or rub eyes with essential oils on fingers.
7. Pregnant women should consult their health care professional before using essential oils containing constituents with hormone-like activity, such as Clary sage, Idaho tansy, juniper and fennel.
8. Epileptics and those with high blood pressure should consult their health care professional before using essential oils. Avoid hyssop, fennel, and Idaho tansy oils.
9. People with allergies should test a small amount of oil on a small area of sensitive skin, such as the inside of the arm, before applying the oil on other areas. The bottom of the feet is one of the safest, most effective places to use essential oils.
10. Before taking GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) essential oils internally, always dilute with an oil-soluble liquid like honey, olive oil or soy milk.
11. Do not add undiluted essential oils directly to bath water. Use Bath Gel Base as a dispersing agent for oils in the bath.
