2. Gary Young’s First Experiences With Oils
~^~by Richard & Shauna Dastrup
Young Living distributors all know that a man named, Gary Young and his wife, Mary, are the owners and founders of the company. But there are many new people joining Young Living today who have not heard about Gary Young's first experiences with essential oils. It is a story worth retelling.
Many years ago Gary Young shared some of his first experiences with us when he brought thirteen oils back from Europe to do research in his clinic. He, like all of us, didn't know much about essential oils. As he used these oils with his patients, he could see some very positive things happening with the blood and how they increased oxygen to the body.
Back at this time he was unable to walk without severe pain in his legs due to an accident years earlier when he had been crushed by a falling tree. One night he came home from his clinic, very tired and weak and in a lot of pain. He filled the tub with hot water so he could soak. Then afterwards he used the oils on himself for the first time, rubbing them on his legs, back and hips. He said he just rubbed them all over himself, not really knowing what they actually were or what would happen.
The next morning he awoke with considerably reduced pain. He felt that it was due to the hot bath and did not give credit to the oils at that time. He walked to work and then walked a mile farther and back to work. That was farther than he had ever walked since the accident that had left him crippled. He continued to use the oils and studied the chemistry. Later he was able to run in a competition marathon and took 60th place out of 970 people.
HOW THE RC BLEND CAME TO BE
He told us the reason we have the blend RC. It was one of the first blends he created and it is the same formula that we have today. One of his patients was dying of Lupus and his lungs were full of cancer. The medical doctors had given him only 6 weeks to live and the medical people had given up. As the last resort they came to Gary Young. The spouse came to him and said, “What can you do to help him? I heard you have some Essential Oils that you are testing." Gary said, “Yes, but we are only doing research right now” The wife just begged him to try them on her husband. Gary said he studied the chemistry of the oils through prayer and from that he put together the blend we have today that we call “RC.”
They built a “tent” over the man and diffused RC for 21 hours, not really knowing if it would work or not. Then the man started coughing up from his lungs huge black and brown patches of tissue. They worked with him for hours keeping his airways open. When he had finished his coughing, they cleaned him up, ran tests on his lungs, and there was no sign of Lupus or Cancer. He went home seven days later cancer free.
So you see, we all have to learn. Gary has paved the way and is continually researching for better ways to heal our bodies without drugs and chemicals.
We truly are on the cutting edge of REAL medical breakthroughs and for the most part no one knows anything about it.
