Start Living Enrollment Update


April 16, 2007, will mark the beginning of a brand new opportunity for Young Living distributors, where those new to the Young Living community will have the opportunity to get started with fresh, up-to-date corporate information and the chance at substantial savings on their very first product purchases!

Start Living Kit

Based on feedback from our new and experienced distributors in the field, it became obvious that some of the information included in our current Success Kit was outdated, and that many of the tools provided were not always representative of the newest, most popular products Young Living offers. Over the past several months, we've been working with distributor leaders to develop a brand new enrollment kit that represents Young Living's updated look and feel, and provides better support for the products people purchase most often. And best of all, this new kit is available for only $40.00!

Beginning April 16, the current Success Kit will be replaced by our new, completely updated Start Living Kit, specifically designed to support the needs of every new Young Living Independent Distributor. The Start Living Kit will contain materials designed to familiarize the new member with our products, services, sales aids, and training materials. The kit also includes three NingXia Red Singles, one 5 ml lavender essential oil, and one 5 ml peppermint essential oil.

New Diffuser Coupon

We are very proud of all the contents included in the new Start Living Kit, but we are especially excited about one in particular—our 50% off Diffuser Coupon.

The easiest way to begin enjoying the benefits of essential oils, and to experience an immediate, positive result with them is certainly through diffusing, and we feel very strongly that every new member should have a diffuser set of their own. Our new enrollment update will make owning a diffuser as simple and easy as possible. Each new Start Living it will include a 50% off coupon, applicable for one Essential Oil Diffuser in any color the new member chooses. New members will have sixty days to take advantage of this amazing offer.

Also included in the Start Living Kit, you will notice an update to our current Distributor Application/Agreement. The form will request the same required information as before, but now includes each of the new enrollment kit options as well as an opportunity for the new member to take advantage of our popular Essential Rewards program. Updated applications will be available on the website for free download, or in 25 packs beginning April 16, 2007.

New Enrollment Kit Options


As we began to gather information in our review of the enrollment process, another thing that became clear was that more than anything, a brand new distributor wants product. Whether they joined the company due to an interest in essential oils, NingXia Red, or any combination of Young Living's unique product offering, their goal is to get started with a complete product experience. And we want to help.


In addition to the update in our Starter Kit, we will also be launching four brand-new enrollment kits that will allow our new distributors to spend their first distributor dollars on what we all love most—products!


These new kits will be replacing the current Starter Kit product options and will provide our new members with more products in their enrollment order than ever before! And in addition to more products and less paper at discounted pricing, you will notice that the new enrollment kits offer increased PV. This will result in increased earnings from our generous enrollment bonuses.

Natural supplements for horses

I'm going to step away from Young Living for this post to highlight a line of supplements for horses that I personally use and have seen great results with.

These come from Dr. Dan Moore -
The Natural Pet Vet.


Bug Check is a very popular product and I can see why after feeding it to my mare last summer. Not only did it keep the bugs away, it also kept her "normal" summer skin problems at bay and kept her allergies in check. Feeding a plain garlic supplement did not work nearly as well as Bug Check. I won't let my mare go through another bug season without it.


Health Check is a great source of antioxidants. Lab testing shows that one scoop of Health Check provides as many antioxidants as 11 buckets of apples and carrots. It contains 21 herbs, vitamins, minerals and probiotics to reduce oxidative stress on your horse. I feel feeding antioxidants were a big key in my mare's recovery from laminitis.



H2Oil (Hoof and Health Oil) is crude, unfiltered, unrefined and not heat processed. It is naturally resistant to rancidity because of its retention of natural Vitamin E and Lecithin. These along with natural sterols, phospholipids and other important nutrients are typically filtered out by processing (rice bran, flax, corn oil or wheat germ oil). H2Oil keeps all the "goodies" in and provides essential 3, 6 and 9 Omega Fatty Acids. The addition of these fats to a horse's diet can help slow the absorption of feed and help level out spikes in blood sugar - very important if you have a horse prone to laminitis. One of the oils in H2Oil is unrefined coconut oil which contains high amounts of Lauric acid which has been shown to be both antibacterial and antiviral.

Safeguard your family's health


The Thieves® formula is based upon the famous "Four Thieves Vinegar." In the 15th-century, a group of thieves used this "vinegar" on themselves to avoid contracting the plague while they robbed the bodies of the dead and dying. When captured, they disclosed the formula they used to protect themselves in exchange for a more lenient punishment.

University studies conducted on Young Living's Thieves® essential oil blend have demonstrated an over 90% kill rate on both gram positive and gram negative organisms.

The Thieves® essential oil blend may either be diffused, used as a dietary supplement or used directly on the body. When diffused, we find the scent to be comforting and uplifiting. I like to diffuse it and apply a few drops directly to my feet after being exposed to anybody who is ill. When I felt a stomach bug coming on a few weeks ago, I diluted a few drops with some olive oil, placed it into an empty capsule and took a few doses throughout the day. By the next afternoon I was feeling fine with minimal down time.

"Thieves® Kit II is the supreme wellness kit. It includes a 5 ml bottle of the renowned Thieves® essential oil blend, the powerful new Thieves® hard lozenges, Thieves® Spray, and one bar of the hand-poured Thieves® bar soap made with the finest ingredients. This new Thieves® Kit also contains the ultimate in oral health: Thieves® Dentarome Ultra™ Toothpaste and Thieves® Fresh Essence Plus™ Mouthwash. "

Monthly Special - 10% off Jasmine


Beginning February 16 through March 15, enjoy a 5 ml bottle of Jasmine (Jasminum officinale) at a 10% discount!

Jasmine is an absolute extracted from the flower and is an essence rather than an essential oil. It was a warm, exotic, floral fragrance that relaxes and soothes the body while uplifiting the spirit. Jasmine has been used throughout history for romance and attraction and for balancing the feminine energy of the body. It is also very beneficial for the skin.


Did you know... Jasmine flowers must be picked at night to maximize fragrance?

"One pound of jasmine oil requires about 1,000 pounds of jasmine or 3.6 million fresh unpacked blossoms. The blossoms must be collected before sunrise, or much of the fragrance will have evaporated. The quality of the blossoms may also be compromised if they are crushed. A single pound of pure jasmine oil may cost between $1,200 to $4,500. In contrast, synthetic jasmine oils can be obained for $3.50 per pound but they do not posess the same therapeutic qualities as the pure oil"

PanAway in a new smaller size!!!


Great news for anybody who loves or is interested in trying PanAway®, but wishes it came in a smaller size...

"To meet the needs of our distributors, one of our most popular essential oil blends, PanAway® will be available in a 5 ml bottle beginning March 1! PanAway® is extremely soothing to the skin and provides comforting warmth when used in massage, particularly on exercise-stressed muscles.
Item No. 3391 5 mlWholesale $28.50 / Pref. cust $33.00 / Retail $37.50 / PV 28.50 "

"Created by Gary Young following an injury that severely tore the ligaments in his leg. PanAway® is a blend of wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens), which has an active constituent similar to cortisone; clove (Syzygium aromaticum), which contains eugenol, used by dentists to numb gums; peppermint (Mentha piperita), which is calming for nerves; along with helichrysum (Helichrysum italicum), which is soothing for localized discomfort. "


I personally love this essential oil blend for sore muscles and stiff joints and am thrilled that Young Living has decided to offer it in a smaller size!

The Most Powerful Antioxidant Drink



NingXia Red not only claims to be one of a kind, it has the numbers and the research to prove it!

My Personal NingXia Red Story

For the past several years I have suffered from the effects of Lyme's disease. Despite conventional antibiotic treatment I still have some residual symptoms including fatigue, brain fog, sore muscles and painful joints. The addition of NingXia Red to my routine makes a huge difference in how I feel. I have more energy, have the ability to think more clearly, get better quality sleep, and my body is much less sore.

NingXia Red Facts...

Ultra-High Antioxidants - NingXia Red is considered to be a wide-spectrum antioxidant, meaning it does more than just protect the body against a single "free radical." (Free radicals in the body damage cells, proteins, and DNA by altering their chemical structure.) NingXia Red's capacity to absorb four of the most prevalent free radicals found in the human body is superior. Specifically, its capacity to absorb the superoxide free radical, the most abundant free radical in the human body, is many times more effective than the closest competing health drink!

Other Rejuvenating Ingredients - Ningxia wolfberry, the primary ingredient in NingXia Red, along with the powerful combination of select juices and essential oils, is what makes NingXia Red the juice of choice for daily health optimization!

Wolfberry: the miracle superfood; supports multiple biosystems; ultra-rich nutrient source Blueberry: contains ultra-high levels of antioxidants Pomegranate: supports cardiovascular health Apricot: revered for longevity support Raspberry: contains ellagic acid, a DNA protectant Lemon and Orange Essential Oils: contain the antioxidant d-limonene

ORAC testing proves NingXia Red's higher antioxidant activity

Natural Ointment for Cuts, Scrapes and More


Animal Scents™ Ointment is a protective and soothing salve formulated for external use on animals, and you can use it on yourself as well. This natural ointment contains no drugs or antibiotics, which I personally don't like to expose myself or my horses to unless absolutely necessary. However, Animal Scents does contain several therapeutic grade essential oils including Melaleuca alternifoila (Tea Tree), Rosewood, Geranium and more.
Tea Tree essential oil is highly antimicrobial, antiseptic, antifungal and more. Entire books have been written on the powers of Tea Tree essential oil. Rosewood essential oil has antibacterial and antifungal properties as well as having properties which heal the skin. Geranium essential oil has been used for centuries for healing skin conditions. Also included in Animal Scents ointment is Palmarosa essential oil (antibacterial, antifungal, supports new skin cell growth), Patchouli essential oil (anti-inflammatory), Idaho Balsam Fir essential oil (anti-inflammatory), and Myrrh essential oil (anti-inflammatory and analgesic). These essential oils are mixed into a soothing base of mink oil, lecithin, beeswax, lanolin, sesame seed oil, wheat germ oil and rose hip seed oil.
Great for minor skin irritations, cuts and abrasions for human and pet.

Essential Oil - Idaho Balsam Fir


Balsam Fir (Idaho) is a conifer oil distilled in northern Idaho that has a refreshing and uplifting scent. Used in massage, it has a soothing effect on muscle and body discomfort associated with exercise. It has anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory properties and is useful for sinus infections, fatigue, arthritis and muscular pain. Balsam's fragrant influence is grounding, stimulating to the mind and relaxing to the body.
Balsam is great for massage when diluted 50/50 with a carrier oil such as grapeseed oil. It is very relaxing and helps to take away the aches and pains. My horse, Cassie, normally shows lots of interest in the Balsam when I offer it to her after a training session.
Young Living Essential Oils are 100% therapeutic grade - so you know they are pure and without any additives. I won't use any other brand on myself, my family or my horses.

Now through February 15, 2007, receive 10% off on a 15 ml bottle of Idaho Balsam Fir. Click here to go to our store for more information

My interest in alternative health methods


I have become more and more interested in natural health care over the past few years. The interest first began through my career as a barn manager caring for horses. I have seen first-hand how herbs, homeopathics, essential oils, acupuncture, chiropractic and other "alternative" modalities can help horses with acute and chronic problems.

Being a scientifically minded person, I began to read and research the ingredients and methods being used on the horses I cared for. The more I read, the more interested I became - especially when I read scientific studies which backed up the results I was seeing.

Things really hit home when my own horse became laminitic - a very painful condition of inflammation within the hooves that can result in many long-term problems and, in severe cases, death. Using acupuncture, essential oils, homeopatics, herbs and proper nutrition she was off NSAID drugs within two weeks. Within a few months I was able to start lightly exercising her again. Now she is back into her training schedule, albeit slightly modified, and I continue to maintain her health with essential oils, herbs and nutrition. Her recovery has amazed all who know her.
I plan to provide information in this blog in the hope that it will help others as it has helped myself, my family and my horses.
