There’s a great Essential Oils Summit going on all this week, from May 11 – 18, this Monday to next Monday.
I first became exposed to and started using Young Living Essentials Oils in 1997, and have never stopped. They are now very much a part of my own everyday lifestyle, and have been instrumental in my own spiritual, emotional, mental and physical well-health.
What a beautiful scent Christmas Spirit is… I always have it going at Christmas time and it is soooo nice.
See some of the tips below for other ways you can use it, especially vacuuming!!
According to the Essential Oils Desk Reference, this beautiful blend is:
“A purifying blend of evergreen, citrus, and spice, reminiscent of winter holidays, and brings joy, peace, happiness, and security.”
Ingredients:
Orange (Citrus sinensis) is elevating to the mind and body, bringing security, joy, and peace.
Cinnamon bark (Cinnamomum verum) is the oil of wealth from the Orient and part of the formula the Lord gave Moses (Exodus 30:22-27).
Emperors of China and India measured their wealth partly by the amount of cinnamon they possessed. Traditionally, it was thought to have a frequency that attracted wealth and abundance. It brings back memories of wassail, home-cooked food, and fond memories of the holidays.
Spruce (Picea mariana) helps the respiratory and nervous systems. It is anti-infectious, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory. Its aromatic influences help to open and release emotional blocks, bringing about a feeling of balance and grounding. Traditionally, spruce oil was believed to possess the frequency of prosperity. This oil brings memories of Christmas trees and makes the whole house feel more like home during the holidays.
Application:
Possible sun/skin sensitivity.

My Best Christmas Blessings,
The New 2014 Holiday Gift Guide can now be seen online.
I know if someone gave me something Young Living for Christmas, I wouldn’t moan.. at all. (hint, hint… LOL!)
There are so many cool things this year, and just think about it: This is the most conscious gift-giving you can participate in.
Supporting organic farming world-wide, promoting health and introducing the people you care about the most on new health technologies (well, actually very ancient health technologies in fact) that saves lives, keeps your home chemical free, your kids immune-healthy, your emotions soothed, all your ‘owies’ healed and many, many more benefits.
Some people won’t try something until it’s all wrapped up in a nice little bow for them.
So look at your list, check it twice, and make a decision on what gifts you could bring your friends and family that would do the most good in their lives… and in the world.

Happy Oiling,
Let’s face it, so many things to do…
It’s not difficult to fall into the habit of ignoring the tools we have to help us with our health. But unless we USE them, we’re not getting the benefit, which is the reason you bought them in the first place.
Why did you choose to purchase a particular oil or supplement?
Was there something you had in mind to heal or repair?
Here are my boxes of oils, that I keep front and center in the master bath.
If we neglect the daily habits of using our oils, we’re not implementing what we already know. Using what you have, you can benefit daily and over the course of months and years, strengthen and repair so many different aspects of your health: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual.What’s on Your Everyday Shelf of Oils?
It’s easy to have a selection of oils out that you can use daily. During my morning and evening routines, they’re easy to grab and use. Plus you smell so good!
What’s on your shelf?
Do you need help figuring out what to use where?
The Desk Reference is an essential tool for taking control of your own health.

Citrus!
Keeping this short and sweet once again for summer…
Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) has a fresh, citrus aroma that is energizing and uplifting. Rich in the powerful antioxidant d-limonene, it is nourishing to the skin. Like many coldpressed citrus oils, it is a popular oil to use in conjunction with weight management programs. Grapefruit may also be used to enhance the flavor of food and water.
Lemon (Citrus limon) has a strong, purifying, citrus scent that is revitalizing and uplifting. Lemon consists of 68 percent dlimonene, a powerful antioxidant. It is delightfully refreshing in water and may be beneficial for the skin. Lemon may also be used to enhance the flavor of foods. Lemon essential oil is cold-pressed from the rinds of lemons. Jean Valnet MD estimated that it takes 3,000 lemons to produce one kilo of oil. In his book, The Practice of Aromatherapy, Valnet wrote that lemon is a tonic for supporting the nervous and sympathetic nervous system.

“The more alive a food is, the more prana (life force) it has and the more vibrant and alive you will feel when you consume it.”
In my last blog post, I promised additional tips for beginning and sustaining a healthy cleanse. But before I discuss those details, I’d like to identify the reasons cleansing can be so beneficial, especially during this time of year.
I thought I’d forward this good article I read on how beneficial cleansing can be in the summer time. It’s a great time to cleanse as we are surrounded with so many fresh fruits and vegetables!
According to natural-health pioneers such John Tilden, Dr. Randolph Stone, Dr. Bernard Jensen, Dr. John Ray Christopher, Dr. Richard Shultze, and Gary Young, most disease is the result of a poor diet that is high in animal products, overly processed foods, and foods that are high in fat and low in fiber. When we combined this poor diet with environmental toxin exposure and lack of exercise, we develop all sorts of problems such as inflammation, headaches, skin issues, and a sluggish immune system.
A dirty, compacted colon may be the culprit of these health issues. A clean, properly functioning colon, however, is the gateway to vibrant health. The natural-health advocates I mentioned above have taught and proven to their patients that miraculous healing occurs with thorough colon cleansing.
So without further ado, here are a few tips to help you with your summer cleanse—along with some proven Young Living products that will help you transform your health this season.
Tip 1: Enjoy plenty of raw fruits and veggies, fresh juice, sprouted legumes and beans, lots of garlic, olive oil, and add more cayenne to your diet. The more alive a food is, the more prana (life force) it has and the more vibrant and alive you will feel when you consume it. Refrain from eating all animal products, processed and refined foods, sugar, salt, alcohol, coffee, over-the-counter drugs, recreational drugs, and fried foods. Canned and processed food is dead!
Tip 2: Drink more water. I know I stated this in my previous blog, but the more water your colon has, the easier it is to eliminate toxins. Can you drink at least 64 ounces of water a day?
Tip 3: Get your body moving. Do more squatting, such as malasana, and walk more. Physical movement activates peristalsis, the wave-like contractions that move food through the intestines.
Tip 4: Use a colon cleansing product daily during your cleanse. Some of my personal favorites are Young Living’s ComforTone®, ICP™, and Digest & Cleanse™.
If you are cleansing, keep at it and feel free to share your stories and favorite cleansing methods with me.
Namaste,
Tracy Griffiths

Have you ever wanted to have just one source as your ‘go-to’ for all your health questions?
One that was quick, easy and totally accessible anytime you needed it?
I often field questions from my clients, friends and family on what the recommendations are for the oils they can use to clear up a certain condition they’ve developed. Or if they want to make an improvement in a certain area, but aren’t sure how to approach it.
Often what I find is that when I give the solution, my friends get this glazed over look like, “How could I possibly learn all this or know all this? How do I remember it, and how do I know they work?”
I know it can be a challenge. Let’s face it, with so many alternatives out there as we transition from allopathic to more holistic solutions, the task of self-education can be daunting.
I remember I started learning about alternative medicine in 1980 when my part time job during college was at a health food store. Whoa! The books, the supplements, the strange foods… what was all that stuff?
In my studies I learned how herbs had been used since the beginning of civilization as the primary source of medicine in all cultures. For centuries since, doctors have used herbs as a primary source for treating ailments, until only a few short decades ago when pharmaceuticals started to be developed. As I learned, I started out with herbal teas and tinctures with books and reference manuals on what to do with what. My studies continued for years!
What my early studies looked like before I discovered Young Living Essential Oils
In 1996 I discovered Young Living Essential Oils when my massage therapist started using them on my stuck shoulder.
Very quickly the injury was resolved! I decided to relinquish all other forms of herbal remedies and focus on these highly concentrated versions that came in such a compact bottle. No teas, no tinctures, and very much stronger.
There are a wide variety of oils available for you to enjoy.
Once I discovered Dr. Gary Young, his work and integrity, I was relieved to find a source I could trust and stop trying to learn about all the new things constantly coming out on the market.
At that time Young Living used to send us out training cassettes to listen to, and little by little, I learned what to use for what.
Eventually in 1999, we got the first edition of what was called then, “The People’s Desk Reference.”
Woohoo!
Now everything was in one place, including education on the body’s systems, how to cleanse, balance hormones, and much more. Best of all, an entire section that listed in alphabetical order the various health conditions and how to treat them with YL oils and supplements.
The original People’s Desk Reference
The original 1999 version of The People’s Desk Reference for Essential Oils.
It was later transformed into the Essential Oils Desk Reference, or the EODR.
Five editions later, guess what?
We now have it online in an electronic version!
Now things are even easier.
It’s so easy to log-in from anywhere there is an internet connection (including your phone) and look something up in just a few minutes.
Sprained an ankle?
Spider bite?
Poison Ivy?
The flu?
Did you know you can improve your vision no matter what your age?
There really is so much to discover there.
You can find the solutions and recommendations you’re looking for quickly and easily. No need to hesitate in contacting me or to get that glazed-over look when I tell you the recommendations and then decide if you should go for it or not.
Trust yourself! As you read your solution, does it seem such a risk to purchase a few oils and supplements and heal yourself naturally?
I’ve just learned Life Science Publishing has the electronic version of the EODR available for only $20 until May 28th. Normally the cost is $39.95, and they’ve had it on sale since April 19th. I had no idea!
