■HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS■

***INHALATION***

The inhalation of essential oils heightens the senses and can trigger numerous desired responses in the body. Below are some techniques used to inhale essential oils:

+ Diffuse the oils using a young Living diffuser which disperses the oil in a micro-fine vapor into the air. The Young Living diffuser will not heat the oil, thus ensuring full benefits, as extreme heat can damage important constituent in the oil.

+ Direct inhalation - Simply smell them.

***APPLY NEAT***(directly) to the skin...some oils may need to be added to a carrier oil, such as YL's V-6, sweet almond oil, grape seed oil, ect.

*** Key points of application on the body are:
Crown of head, temples, neck, abdomen, soles and top of feet, forehead, behind ears, upper back, over vital organs, ankles
+Internal consumption

***ORALLY***
*** Research indicates that some oils are more effective when taken orally. Only pure essential oils, proven safe and labeled as dietary supplements, should be used internally. Dilution and dosage is dependent on the age, size, and the health constitution of the individual. Follow the recommended dosage on individual product labels to ensure safety or seek the advice of a health professional before administering oil internally.

>>> IMPORTANCE OF QUALITY <<<
Many oils, touted as essential oils, are derived with harsh chemicals, diluted, or copied and produced in a lab. Cheap copies bring cheap results and have the potential to be toxic. Therefore, it is imperative to take great care in choosing high quality essential oils.
