Our family started using essential oils at the beginning of the year. I gave myself a challenge to learn more concerning essential oils and how to treat my family with them. While I still have much to learn, I’m getting accustomed to reaching for my oils first when a problem comes up. Even my children run to me requesting an oil when they are hurt.
It truly is amazing how well the oils have worked. Oh they are not a miracle cure, though Thieves can come close! Thieves is the one oil I would never be without in our family. I have seen how it has helped through various illness with amazing results.
Thieves is designed to fight infections of all kinds. It has anti-viral, antibacterial, and antiseptic properties in it. I have used this oil to fight colds, coughs, sore throats, and cold sores on lips. Just this past week I had a terrible sore throat, so I mixed up some honey and lemon with a drop of this oil and swallowed it. Within a few minutes my sore throat was much, much better and it was totally gone in a few hours, never to return. Amazing.
During the winter my girls had terrible coughs, probably the worst they have ever had. I started putting this on their chest, back, and feet, and by the end of the week they only had a tiny cough left. They had never recovered from coughs that fast.
So how exactly do you use essential oils? For most oils it is best to mix equal parts of essential oil with either olive oil or coconut oil. I personally prefer using coconut oil as it has so many healing properties by itself. When fighting an illness, I always rub some on my feet before bed, on my neck, chest, and back. Because Young Living oils are so pure, you are able to take many of them internally also.
You can purchase oils directly from Young Living here, or you can sign up to purchase them at a wholesale price of 24% off every purchase. When I joined I chose the Everyday Oils kit, as it comes with nine oils to get you started. We instantly started using almost all our oils as soon as we received them!
If you are looking for resources to help you learn more about mothering in a natural, healthy way, the Natural Mothering eBook Bundle is an excellent place to start! Only available until the end of this week, at 95% off retail price!
Today I’m giving away a bottle of Thieves! To enter, use the rafflecopter from below.

I said I would give you all an update on how my journey with Young Living Essential Oils would be throughout the year. The first month of using them has honestly just astonished me with how well they are working for our family! I purchased the oils a bit skeptical, but I had heard enough ladies praise these oils that I wanted to try them for myself.
This month I learned a lot about the essential oil Thieves, and had the opportunity to use it as our family was sick with various illnesses. Thieves essential oil is a potent blend of antiviral, antiseptic, antibacterial, anti-infectious essential oils. It is the best oil to reach for when feeling a cold or flu coming on. My 4 and 3 year old daughters became sick with terrible coughs, it had been a while since I heard them sick with such a yucky cough. I received the Thieves oil in the mail shortly after they became sick and started applying it on their feet, chest, and back. You are supposed to dilute the Thieves oil with a carrier oil as it is so strong, I found coconut oil to work the best. Within one week their coughs were totally gone, normally it would have taken several weeks to recover from a cough like that.
I because sick with a cold that was going into a sinus infection. I could hardly breath I was so congested. I was using the Peppermint Essential oil all over my face (diluted with oil) but I wasn’t recovering like I thought I should. I finally diluted the Thieves oil and rubbed it all over my face and neck and went to bed. I woke up feeling so much better the next morning, and it only took a few more applications of it to be totally over it! I’m not sure if it will always work that fast, but I know that this is one oil I don’t want to ever be out of in our home.
We grew up with essential oils in our home. We didn’t necessarily use them medicinally on our skin, I remember sniffing oils when congested and using them in cleaners a lot. I had my sister smell some of the Young Living oils and she was amazed over how strong they are, as we don’t remember the oils we had in our home ever smelling this strong.
The downside of Young Living is that the oils are expensive. It stops a lot of people from ordering and trying them (including me for quite a while). But I’ve come to realize that you can spend $41 on a bottle of Thieves that will treat your whole family, or you can spend $41 (and up) on a Dr. visit for one person or for over the counter medicine for your entire family that is not as good for you.
Right now Young Living has a special which makes it a nice time to join and try the oils. Anyone who signs up as a new distributor through February 28th and orders $150 pv will receive a $40 credit on their account to be used at another time. The Everyday Oils Kit would qualify for this, and you could try 9 different oils, and receive a coupon for $40 off a diffuser! That is what I chose for my first purchase and I’m so glad I did. Between illnesses, a broken foot, and trouble sleeping at night we have used almost every single oil in the kit already!
A good reference book for learning more about essential oils is the “Reference Guide for Essential Oils” book. I have the quick guide but it is so excellent that I have already ordered the full version of the book!
I find it so exciting to be able to treat my family naturally! I’ll be sure to keep you all updated with more info on how they are working for us throughout the year.
