Meet the YL Finca Victoria Farm!

Our extended family of partner farms continues to grow! We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with the Finca Victoria Farm, located in Ciudad Victoria, Mexico! The Finca Victoria Farm will provide Young Living with Lime and Grapefruit essential oils, which will come from citrus grown on more than 2,400 acres of farmland. And while operations span thousands of acres of farmland, the Finca Victoria Farm isn’t only a farm ~ it’s also a cold-press facility! This means that our oils will come from fresh citrus rinds that are cold-pressed on site. Because the Finca Victoria Farm is a zero-waste facility, the citrus juice, pulp, and rinds will be put to good use after the oils are extracted. The Finca Victoria Farm’s zero-waste status is one of the reasons why Young Living has chosen to partner with them, as it’s one of our 5×5 Pledge goals to bring all our operations to zero-waste status by 2024. The farm also meets our high Young Living standards and adheres to our Seed to Seal® quality commitment! The seeds are non-GMO, and the farm works to ensure soil health by strategically testing soil nutrition at just the right time. The Finca Victoria Farm also practices fair-trade principles, which is important to the Standards pillar of the Seed to Seal commitment. The employment opportunities offered by the farm and processing facility provide important support to the rural communities around Ciudad Victoria. We are thrilled to welcome this beautiful farm into our global family ~ and we know you’ll love every drop of oil that comes from their farm into your home! Learn more at www.SeedtoSeal.com!

How Essential Oils Benefit Our Animals

Young Living Essential Oils ~ Helping You Have Healthy Pets

If you are like most pet parents, you love your animals and consider them part of the family . . . . and for good reason.  Animals bring us laughter, joy, companionship, and love and are a meaningful part of our lives.  That is why their health is so very important to us. 

Young Living Essential Oils can be a powerful health tool to help you care for your animals. Before I proceed, I must emphasize that everything I write or share about Essential Oils is referring ONLY to Young Living Essential Oils, as they are 100% pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils that are guaranteed for purity and potency.  You can only get YLEOs direct from an authorized distributor (which I am), and the company . . . . so, please do not run off to the health food store, or high-end grocery store and purchase oils that are of a lesser grade and quality, and that are not safe for ingestion or topical use!  You may contact me directly with any questions or concerns regarding this difference.  

How Essential Oils (EOs) Benefit Our Animals . . . . 


1.  Supports Immune System ~ Essential Oils work on the cellular level to stimulate the body to respond to infectious agents. They impact the body by increasing the lymphocytes and improve the immune system response. Immupower, Thieves, Raven, and RC are some examples of blends that help support the immune system.


2.  Provides Antimicrobial Elements ~ Essential Oils have been found to be more effective than some conventional antibiotics in eliminating infectious agents. The range of effectiveness includes resistance to viruses, bacteria (double resistant to pseudomonas infection, which affects dogs), parasites, and fungi (chronic unresponsive fungal infection, which affects cats). Clove, Lemon, Melaleuca (Tea Tree), Eucalyptus, and Rosemary all have antimicrobial elements.


3.  Eliminates Pain ~ Many Essential Oils relieve pain and can be used with a warm moist compress. The addition of moisture enhances the effectiveness of the oil. They are useful for bone, muscle, tendon, and ligament pain. Use with other modes of pain relief provides another option. Essential oils can be used more often than conventional medication and spans the gap that often occurs with oral or injectable analgesics. EOs stimulate endorphin release which activates pain relieving neurotransmitters. Post-surgery, the oils are also used to give pain relief. They can be applied topically on the area of concern or used orally with other pain relievers. Most of the time, the oils are used on an as-needed basis. Some blends and oils that help eliminate pain are PanAway, Relieve It, Mountain Savory, M-Grain, Peppermint, Wintergreen, Black Pepper, and Balsam Fir.


4.  Provides Anti-Inflammatory Protection ~ Chronic disease is the result of inflammation in the body originating from injury, diet, infection, or toxins. Anti-inflammatory effects of the EOs provide the body a chance to heal from these bodily assaults. Thyme, Helichrysum, Wintergreen, Peppermint, and Balsam Fir all work as anti-inflammatories.


5.  Reduces Stress ~ Pets experience stress much the way we do. Research has shown they are very similar to us in their response to stress, as well as the side effects caused by stress. Evidence of stress can be seen in litter box issues, excessive grooming, aggression (chewing things, breaking through doors, destroying rooms, etc.), and appetite loss, just to name a few examples. Essential Oils give the pet parent a natural method to correct the issues and relieve the stress. Often, corrective behavior techniques are more successful when EOs are used in conjunction with environmental changes. Peace & Calming, RutaVaLa, TraumaLife, Gentle Baby, Valerian, Petitgrain, Lavender, and Roman Chamomile are some of the oils and blends that help to reduce stress.


6.  Restores Sleep Habits ~ As animals get older they seem to have a harder time at night . . . . from signs of restlessness to having to go to the bathroom . . . . and their sleep habits suffer because of it. Some of this is due to pain or disease, but other cases are due to cognitive dysfunction disorder or senility.  EOs can provide an alternative to euthanasia so quality of life can be maintained for some time. Antioxidant activity of the EOs is high, which help the body restore itself at night. NingXia Red, Longevity, BrainPower, and Clarity are the most commonly used blends for sleep disorders.


7.  Improves Coat and Skin ~ As with other cells of the body, the antioxidant effects of the oils can restore health to the coat. The overgrowth of yeast or bacteria can cause various skin metabolism issues and the EOs provide a healthy environment for regeneration of the skin. Lavender, Geranium, Tea Tree, Patchouli, Frankincense, and Myrrh are all good oils and blends used to improve the coat and skin.  


8.  Minimizes Upper and Lower Respiratory Infection ~ Cats are commonly infected 
with respiratory disease . . . . especially farm kittens. The use of Essential Oils in this circumstance is effective because bacteria, viruses, and parasites are sensitive to EOs. The anti-inflammatory effect is helpful in decreasing the secondary asthma that can occur in cats. Bronchitis in dogs is another disease that is treatable with EOs. Left untreated, it can become a long-term condition. Decreasing inflammation and infection in the respiratory tract as early as possible decreases the severity. The EOs are also helpful as an early treatment resolution.  The best oils and blends for respiratory infections are Lemon, Eucalyptus, Raven, RC, Rosemary, Ravensara, and Frankincense.


9.  Assists in Digestive Challenges ~ Essential Oils provide a natural way to de-worm, are soothing to the digestive tract, assist in correcting garbage toxicity or car sickness, and improves digestion overall. They relieve nausea, diarrhea, indigestion, and gas. Peppermint, DiGize, Ginger, Nutmeg, Idaho Tansy, and Clary Sage work well with the digestive system.


10. Promotes Cardiac Health ~ EOs have the ability to improve circulation by increasing oxygen and nutrient delivery to the cells. The body is healthy and stronger. For improved cardiac health, Cypress, Grapefruit, Basil, Ylang Ylang, and Spikenard work best.


11. Balances the Endocrine System ~ The body needs to be aligned in order to function. Cats get hyperthyroidism while dogs more likely get hypothyroidism or Cushing's. The EOs keep the body centered to prevent hormonal imbalance and fine tune imbalance. Clary Sage, Fennell, Myrrh, and Lemongrass are the best for this.


12. Supports a Healthy Urinary System ~ Renal insufficiency and bladder stones, infections, and inflammation are common in pets. Essential Oils are helpful in restoring bladder health, increasing renal function through improved circulation and antioxidant activity. Raven, RC, Tea Tree, Orange, Lemon, and Rosemary support a healthy urinary system.  


13. Helps Lacerations, Abscesses, and Abrasions ~ Essential Oils are helpful in resolving infections due to injury and in the healing process. Lavender is especially useful for abrasions and burns, but Melrose, Geranium, and Rose are also helpful.


14. Supports Muscles and Bones ~ Osteoarthritis and anterior cruciate injury is common in the active dog and cat.  As pets live longer the issues of age-related changes are more common. EOs can be used to help give a better quality of life to your pets. There are many blends and individual oils that improve movement, help repair injury, and provide pain relief. Some of these include PanAway, Relieve It, Black Pepper, Peppermint, Balsam Fir, Wintergreen, and Mountain Savory. 


15. Improves Oral and Dental Health ~ Pets need dental care as much as their pet parents. Part of this involves control of infection and eliminating pain. Thieves ~ a unique blend of antimicrobial oils ~ is very effective for this purpose. Using before and after normal dental care cuts down on the amount of bacteria build-up in the animal. As a preventative, Thieves will decrease dental disease return while also working as a pain reliever after extraction. Along with Thieves, Mountain Savory, Peppermint, Myrrh, and Clove all help in your pet's oral and dental care.


16. Increases Alertness ~ As your pet ages, normal habits may lag, accidents may happen, and your pet may not enjoy life as much as he or she used to. Essential Oils have a profound effect on reestablishing old habits, especially Brain Power, Clarity, Cedarwood, Lemon, Sandalwood, Lavender, Vetiver, Orange, and Frankincense.


17. Protects Against Cancer ~ Essential Oils have been studied and have shown promising results in being a part of the cancer treatment plan. EOs have also been used for Melanoma in horses and dogs with great success. Frankincense, Palo Santo, Ledum, Spikenard, Citrus Fresh, Lemongrass, Lavender, Clary Sage, and Tsuga are some of the better EOs that help fight cancer.


18. Is a Safe Cleaning Agent ~ Many pets ingest cleaners . . . . especially those that drink from the toilet bowl or lick areas where cleaners are used. Thieves Household Cleaner is a safe alternative to the caustic cleaners. Lemon, Clove, Rosemary, Purification, Tea Tree, and Eucalyptus are other effective agents.


19. Slows Bleeding ~ EOs can be used to stop the bleeding of a nail or pad. They are very effective and work quickly. Helichrysum, Cistus, and Geranium work best.  


20. Eliminates Odors ~ Pets commonly have accidents in varying circumstances. Both younger and older pets of all types struggle with this.  Other animals, like cats, often inappropriately urinate if stressed. Essential Oil blends have been used for these problems of odors and stains. Purification, Thieves, Lemon, Orange, and Citrus Fresh work best to help neutralize odor problems.

Should you wish to get started with your own oils and products, I recommend that you enroll as a wholesale member in Young Living by purchasing the Premium Starter Kit, which gives you the Everyday Oils, a bonus oil called Stress Away, a Home Diffuser, as well as samples to try or share. This is an excellent investment in your health, as well as the health of your animals. 

You also have the option of joining as a Retail Member, as opposed to a Wholesale Member, so it is completely up to you. There are also options for monthly Essential Rewards orders, which earn you points that you can spend on additional products, as well as promotional items every month that you can earn for free, just by shopping for what you already need.

Essential Oils for Fish

If you are looking for a wonderful way to expose your fish to essential oils but were told that you cannot do this safely, here is how to implement them into your aquarium or pond to rid them of fungus, bacteria, viruses, and other health concerns.  You should only use essential oils in a glass aquarium and avoid plastic components as much as you possibly can.  Many essential oils have been used for fish, however, the most commonly used oils are Purification, Lemon, and Peppermint.  We highly recommend beginning with these three oils, then only implementing other oils when needed.  

The best way to get started is with a toothpick dip into the oil you wish to use, then dip the toothpick into the water.  This will enable you to gradually build the concentration of how much oil you are adding to the water. It is not uncommon to use 2-5 drops of oil per 10-gallon aquarium, once you build up the concentration levels.  Even with larger areas of water, such as ponds, remarkable results are often seen with merely a few drops or as much as 10-20 drops for a large pond.  Fish are often seen ingesting the droplets of oil from the water's surface, which is absolutely fine when they choose to do so. 

Essential oils can also be added to a separate water supply first, for example, 1 drop per 4 cups of water in an empty, clean container (such as an empty NingXia Red bottle).  This water can them be used to fill a fish bowl or to add to the existing fish tank or pond environment.  

Purification oil is generally our first recommendation as a broad spectrum blend that is effective against bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses.  There is no documentation of using the Raindrop Technique on fish, therefore, this method is NOT recommended.


Treatment Recommendations:

Add a toothpick dip of Purification to your glass aquarium.  Refresh the treatment as needed. Some fish may need treatments on a weekly basis, others may even need daily treatments. Gradually increase the amount of oil being added to their water.


Other Recommended Oils (in alphabetical order):


Single Oils ~ Frankincense, Grapefruit, Helichrysum, Lavender, Lemon, Orange, Palo Santo, Peppermint, Tangerine


Oil Blends ~ Citrus Fresh, Purification


Supplements & Products ~ Thieves Household Cleaner

Should you wish to get started with your own oils and products, we recommend that you enroll as a wholesale member in Young Living by purchasing the Premium Starter Kit, which gives you the Everyday Oils, a bonus oil called Stress Away, a Home Diffuser, as well as samples to try or share. This is an excellent investment in your health, as well as the health of your animals.

Essential Oils for Cats

Cats present their own unique controversies and requirements to essential oil use.  Most cat owners would agree that cats have distinct opinions of the world in which they allow us to co-exist, and this certainly holds true for aromatherapy. Cats are likely very proud of the fact that they are indeed the most contested topic in the world of essential oil use.  Human viewpoints of this subject range from the adamant stance that essential oils cannot be used safely for cats, to those who use contraindicated essential oils on a daily basis for their felines.

Essential oils for cats (and other animals) is a highly controversial topic, however it really is an argument that boils down to the quality of the essential oils.  Rest assured that ALL of the oils we recommend for use on your animals have been tested for safety and effectiveness prior to us recommending them to you.  The one factor that we stress is to ONLY use therapeutic grade essential oils, and the only one we recommend is Young Living Essential Oils, as they are tried and true for more than 20 years.

Cats are sensitive to most synthetically made products and "natural products" as well as some essential oils . . . . even if we are not aware of it!  We bring this up as many of us have sensitivities to food, household cleaners, hair and skin products, etc., however, we may not recognize it because most of us are just not that tuned into our bodies and our environment. We may only recognize a change when we cease using certain products or stop eating a particular food item.

Have you ever considered the toxicity to your pets when you bomb your home with synthetic air fresheners, household cleaners or carpet cleaners?  Our pets have extremely sensitive noses and much smaller lungs, so subjecting them to breathing in chemicals and other toxic substances can do a lot of damage.

Many health problems today for humans, as well as for pets, can be traced back to toxicity within their environment, whether it's diet, personal care, or household products. 

Thankfully, there is something we can do about it!  Make a commitment to using non-toxic, holistic cleaning supplies, as well as diffusing healthy essential oils in your home and workplace for yourself and for your pets. 

Essential oils are the perfect solution for us and for our animals. Essential oils can replace most toxic medications for cats, dogs, birds, horses and any other living creature.  There are some oils that we cannot use on certain animals, cats included, so please do be careful and please ask us for guidance if you are not sure.  It is better to be safe than sorry, and the reason Holistic Pets & Peeps! exists is to educate folks on the proper usage of essential oils for their pets, as well as for themselves.

Some of the best essential oils for cats include Lavender, Oregano, Thieves and Peace & Calming, however, there are many other oils and nutritional products that are also quite effective!  Remember to always use therapeutic grade essential oils from a trusted source, such as Young Living.  There IS a difference, as demonstrated in the graph below.

You’re Doing It Wrong: 4 Ways to Fix Your Shower Routine

Adults spend an average of 8–12 minutes showering every day. Think about that: that’s over an hour a week and 5 hours a month. Whether you like to wake up with a shower or wait until the evening to clean off the day’s grime, you might need to make a few changes to your routine.

 

When it comes to keeping clean, not just any old product will do, so make sure you’re packing the right products. Many commercial soaps and shampoos contain harsh surfactants like sulfates or concerning ingredients like parabens. Young Living’s personal care products not only avoid those ingredients, but they also give you the benefits of pure essential oils.

 

1. “Lather, Rinse, Repeat” Doesn’t Hold Water

We’ve all heard the old saying, but shampoo labels are merely telling us to wash our hair more than once. The phrase doesn’t necessarily mean you should “repeat” every day. In fact, unless your hair is oily, you probably only need to wash your hair 2–3 times per week. Gentler shampoos like Young Living’s Lavender Shampoo will get your hair clean without stripping away natural oils.

 

2. Don’t Overdo It with Conditioner

For most of us, natural oils keep the hair closest to our scalp sufficiently moisturized. Putting conditioner on your roots can over-moisturize, leaving your hair flat and undercutting your efforts at cultivating full-bodied hair volume. Instead, only apply conditioners like Young Living’s Lavender Conditioner from your hair’s mid-length through the ends. Leave in for 1–2 minutes to give the conditioner time to do its work, and voila! Balanced, more beautiful hair!

 

3. Toss Out Your Loofah

When it comes to exfoliating skin, loofahs are a favorite tool. However, since you keep your loofah in the shower, it never really dries out, making it prime real estate for a bacteria colony. Translation: every pass over your skin with the loofah leaves a trail of unwanted bacterial interlopers.

 

Instead, exfoliate with a homemade sugar scrub. In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup almond or coconut oil, 1 cup brown sugar, and 2 drops of your favorite essential oil, such as a combination of Cedarwood and Royal Hawaiian™ Sandalwood. For a gentle and effective facial exfoliator, try Satin Facial Scrub™, Mint. It will leave your complexion feeling and looking fresh, invigorated, and clean.

 

4. Clean Your Face Last

The majority of us are most concerned with the appearance of our face, so it’s understandable that this is a top priority. However, ingredients in other shower products might run onto your face and leave a residue, meaning you could be clogging your pores instead of getting clean! When the time is right, our top-of-the-line facial wash, ART® Gentle Cleanser, uses a mild foaming action that leaves your face feeling clean, soft, and supple.

Need a Change of Pace? Reach for Young Living Roll-Ons!

With my crazy schedule, I occasionally find myself in need of a break. If the weather is cooperating, I'll get outside and take a walk around the building to get my blood flowing.

YL's roll-ons offer quick and effective application of some of my favorite essential oils, making them perfect to take along with me wherever I go.

Essential Oils & Specific Emotions

Essential Oils can aid our recoveries and help to bring holistic balance and well-being into our lives. I only use Young Living oils because they are 100% pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils and because Young Living has a proprietary Seed to Seal® guarantee, which is their commitment to purity and authenticity.  Also, Young Living owns their own farms and distilleries. You can even go visit the farms to help plant and harvest.  How cool is that?!?!

Anger

Anger can be brief or you can remain angry for an extended period of time and this can be very detrimental to your health. Professional help and anger management classes are available and you can also try using the following essential oils either in a diffuser in your home, at work or by placing a few drops in your hand and inhaling it.

Anxiety

There are times that we can't help but feel anxiety taking over. Whatever it may be that causes you feelings of anxiety, essential oils can help. Place a few drops in a diffuser or the palm of your hand to inhale. You can use one single oil or you can create your own combinations. Have fun with your diffuser!

When you need that added boost of confidence try these essential oils: Bergamot, Cypress, Grapefruit, Jasmine, Nutmeg, Orange, Peppermint and Rosemary.

Depression

Try these essential oils: Bergamot, Clary Sage, Frankincense, Geranium, Grapefruit, Helichrysum, Jasmine, Lavender, Lemon, Orange, Roman Chamomile, Rose, Sandalwood and Ylang Ylang.

Tired

Who doesn't feel tired or burned out? We are running around non-stop and expected to be superman or superwoman and there just doesn't seem like there is enough time in the day. If you need a boost try these essential oils: Basil, Bergamot, Black Pepper, Clary Sage, Cypress, Frankincense, Ginger, Grapefruit, Helichrysum, Jasmine, Lemon, Patchouli, Peppermint, Rosemary, Sandalwood, Spearmint and Vetiver. This is a great blend too - En-R-Gee.

Fear

It's ok to be fearful of things and it can be overwhelming at times. However, the main thing is to stay calm and relax (easier said than done sometimes). Use a home diffuser, put a few drops of essential oil in your hand or wear a diffuser necklace and try these oils: Bergamot, Clary Sage, Frankincense, Grapefruit, Jasmine, Lemon, Orange, Roman Chamomile Sandalwood and Vetiver.

Grief And Sadness

Grief hits us when we least expect it and turns our lives inside out. It is difficult to deal with grief, but essential oils can help you get through whatever happened in your life.

Memory and Concentration

As we age our memories start to seem to fail us. Instead of stressing about that, use some oils! Also, concentration can be tough when we need to study for a test, remember something for work or just doing everyday tasks that let our mind wanter. If you need help with focus, memory and concentration try these essential oils in your home diffuser or inhaling a few drops from the palm of your hand or wear a diffuser necklace which can be very helpful during test taking and studying: Basil, Black Pepper, Cypress, Hyssop, Lemon, Peppermint and Rosemary.

Panic Attacks

It truly is a terrible feeling when a panic attack starts. No one understands what is going on inside of you and it seems like hours until you feel normal again. Make sure to carry a few essential oils with you to help when panic strikes: Bergamot, Frankincense, Helichrysum, Lavender and Rose.

Stress

Stress is something we have to deal with - it's going to happen whether or not we want it to. However, there are different ways of dealing with it and I choose essential oils. My ultimate favorite is a blend called StressAway. I just put a few drops on my wrist or temples and all is well. I also added a drop to my diffuser necklace to help keep the stress monster away!
