What are Essential Oils?

What is an essential oil?

Plant sweat extract.

Essential oils (EOs) have been around for SO long. The way we use them has changed in the last decade.

WHY? Because better quality oils are now available, at your fingertips. Literally.

EOs are naturally occurring aromatic parts of plants, and they usually come from the bark, roots, flowers, leaves, stems, and seeds.

They are the reason lemons smell like lemons, mint smells like mint, and rose smells like a rose.

The EO in an organic activated nutshell, is the IMMUNE SYSTEM of these therapeutic plants. The plants themselves use what’s in the oils to repair physical damage, ward off pests, protect against weather, finish up your thesis that’s due in two days… etc. etc.

Also – they are nature. We, humans, are also nature.

Plant medicine knows what to do inside our bodies. No wonder these work so well on us humans, and our beloved pets, too.

For example:

Citrus oils – uplifts and makes us happy. Some help us think, some help us relax. Our gentle friend for immune support, helping us get rid of germs in air, surfaces and in us.

Floral oils – soft and caring flowers help our skin, help us sleep/relax.

Herbal oils – just like dried herbs, these can do wonders for our insides & outsides. Many are anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-fungal, and anti-evil in general.

Tree/Root oils – strong and rooted. Helps us feel grounded, safe, covered.

Spice oils – help digestion, warms us up. Think ginger and cinnamon. Nice and hotttt.

Spice Girls – If you wanna get with me, you gotta get with my oils!

Why doTERRA?

Now that you know why you should have EOs in your life, which EO company should you trust & buy from?

Obviously, I’m going to say dōTERRA. Their oils are the ONLY ones I trust because I know their quality, sourcing, testing, and purity standards. This is after using many other brands of EOs.

BTW, it is the same brand of EO that Mr Hugh Jackman uses. It works on Wolverine’s deep wounds. Maybe your man should smell like him, too.

How to use doTERRA oils?

It’s funny how many people don’t think twice about using bleach, fly spray, room “freshener” sprays, car fragrance dangle-trees, or even perfume around children and babies, but they ask if EOs are safe around children.

The dōTERRA ones are safe and effective, but you still need to use common sense. Don’t put them on/in your “pits and bits” (i.e. holes in your body like eyes/nose/ears), for example.
