Eucalyptus Radiata (190PV)

Like most species of eucalyptus, Eucalyptus Radiata is native to Australia. A very large flowering tree in the myrtle family, Eucalyptus radiata produces fragrant leaves and is also known informally as narrow-leaved peppermint. In 2011, a study at Heidelberg University found that Eucalyptus radiata has the second largest abundance of 1.8 cineole (eucalyptol) after Eucalyptus globulus. It is this constituent that gives Eucalyptus Radiata its camphorous aroma and incredible respiratory support properties!

A Few of my Favorite Things…

In the case that you find some extra funds burning a hole in your pocket this holiday season, or want some suggestions on boosting your order up to the next promo level to get MORE free gifts with purchase… or are just looking to try something new… check out my “favs list”!
Outside of my daily oils / supplements I buy from YL, if I’m ever looking to add something else to my order or am in the mood to spoil myself a bit… this is the list I go to. These are a few of my favorite things… maybe something will be new for you and you’ll want to add them to YOUR favs list!

It’s Christmas Eve

I wish there was an “activate Christmas Spirit” button for life. Because I’m not feeling it this year. And I’m hearing that from a lot of my friends, and seeing a lot of that on social media.

In the meantime, I’ll diffuse Christmas Spirit in various blends. Lately it’s been Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Christmas Spirit. And I’ve been loving the uplifting aroma as I work here in my home office.

But now, it’s Christmas Spirit and Pine. And oh boy, maybe this is the missing link to the activation of festive feelings I’ve been looking for.

Until I know for sure, I’ll keep my new favorite worship / christmas music mash-up playlist going. Which one? I’m glad you asked. This one.

A challenge in pursuit of 2022

Here’s a challenge before the year wraps up

Go mark yourself OUT OF OFFICE for at least 24 DAYS of 2022 (and not you’re already scheduled days off, not weekends).

Can you do it?

Sure you can decide later to let things creep into this sacred time. But before the year starts make YOUR TIME the sacred thing. And plan some fun things for those days, some relaxing things, some personal development things, maybe even NOTHING for one or two of those days.

But here’s the big question…

WILL YOU DO IT?

Essentials to have on hand in December

The holidays are upon us and the year is winding down, so you will find us cozied up at home with those we love… diffusing oils, making DIYs, gathering with our family and friends. We are here to give full presence to all that this season brings, and here are a few products we are using to enhance this beautiful time of year!

  • Vanilla Oleoresin: For a warm, welcoming aroma. $32
  • Peppermint Essential Oil: For diffusing, baking, and merry making. $23
  • Christmas Spirit Essential Oil Blend: For all the cozy, festive feelings! $11
  • Winter Nights Foaming Hand Soap, 3pk: For clean, soft, moisturized hands with a scent no store can match! $44.25
  • Super Vitamin D: For immune, emotional, bone and muscle health. $31
  • NingXia Red Combo Pack: Packets for you, bottles for gifting! $158

Vanilla Oleoresin Vanilla is the quintessential warm, inviting scent, making it a wonderful addition to diffuser blends, DIYs, roller blends and even Thieves Cleaner! Young Living’s Vanilla is not strictly an extract or an absolute, both of which contain mostly alcohol and do not blend well with essential oils. Noticing these flaws in mainstream vanilla extracts and absolutes, the D. Gary Young Research Institute worked to find a vanilla product that would meet the Seed to Seal quality commitment and blend well with essential oils. The result is a first-of-its-kind extraction method that yields a Vanilla oleoresin in fractionated coconut oil that diffuses and blends beautifully with essential oils.

Learn more about Vanilla oleoresin in this month’s Oil Spotlight!

Peppermint Essential Oil Bring the crisp, sweet scent of candy canes into your home with Peppermint essential oil! Peppermint is a natural cross between water mint and spearmint that has an uplifting, invigorating aroma that creates a focused, bright environment when diffused. Peppermint is soothing when applied topically, making it great post workout or when your neck and shoulders feel tense. Peppermint Vitality essential oil has a minty, refreshing flavor that supports healthy digestion… and is a perfect addition to any holiday baking! Note: Peppermint and Peppermint Vitality are the same essential oil.

Christmas Spirit Essential Oil Blend This blend of Cinnamon, Spruce and Orange is the most festive blend for the season. Christmas Spirit is a beautiful medley of three oils reminiscent of winter holidays: Orange essential oil has a bright aroma that is believed to bring joy, peace, and happiness to those who possess it. Cinnamon Bark essential oil is the oil of wealth from the Orient. Black Spruce essential oil has an aromatic influence that brings a feeling of balance and grounding. Diffuse this oil all season long (and beyond)!

Winter Nights Foaming Hand Soap Bring the brisk winter air into your home with our favorite seasonal hand soap – Winter Nights Foaming Hand Soap! Young Living’s Signature Scent Winter Nights blend features Northern Lights Black Spruce, Cedarwood, Orange and Peppermint essential oils, which are the perfect combination for the season. The plant-based formula cleans hands without over-drying and aloe and ginkgo biloba botanicals moisturize the skin, making it feel softer and healthier, which is especially important during the driest of seasons!

Super Vitamin D Who doesn’t need a super boost of sunshine? Young Living’s plant-based Super Vitamin D is highly absorbable, vegan friendly, and completely synthetic free. Dissolvable in a delicious mixed berry-flavored tablet, Super Vitamin D is a super source of vitamin D that helps support bone growth and healthy muscle. Vitamin D plays a key function in respiratory health, and through its innate and adaptive defense mechanisms, it supports the body’s respiratory immune system. This dissolvable tablet is made with lemon balm extract and vitamin D to support mood and hormone regulation. SIGN US UP! This time of year can be hard emotionally, so adding Vitamin D to our supplement routine can make a big impact!

Learn more about this baseline supplement in the ‘Supplement Spotlight: Super Vitamin D’ Resource

NingXia Red Combo Pack Packets for you, bottles for gifting! Add a daily shot of NingXia Red to your routine to enjoy the benefits of this powerful, whole-body supplement. There are MANY reasons we love this wolfberry puree (a quick search in the ‘Resources’ tab of the app will show you!!)

Thieves Household Necessities

Thieves essential oil is one of Young Living’s most popular products, and for great reason! This incredible blend is wonderful for cleansing and purifying as well as supporting the immune system. In fact, the Thieves blend was formulated based off of research recorded in the archives of the British Museum library about a group of 14th century European perfumers and spice traders who rubbed oils on themselves while they robbed the dead and dying. One sniff (or quick PubMed search!) is all it takes to fall in love with this blend!

But it gets better. Young Living offers a complete line of home and personal care products infused with the Thieves essential oil blend. This means our homes can be fresh, clean and toxin-free with ease… and smell incredible at the same time! High quality, effective products, sustainable sourcing, and safety for the whole family.
