LIVING ESSENTIALLY ANOINTED INTRO TO OILS LEADER GUIDE
Ashley Boyd www.anointedliving.net

Introduction:
**Slide 1** Introduce yourself and share your story of getting started with
Young Living Essential oils and natural health.

* DISCLAIMER: I am not a medical professional. The information shared
in this class is not intended to treat, cure, or diagnose any illness, nor is it
meant to replace professional medical attention or advice. Advice and
testimonies are all based on use of Young Living brand of oils specifically. Use
and application of this information is done solely at your own risk.

OPTIONAL: Go around the room and have people introduce themselves and
say one thing they are interested in learning at the class, or a specific issue they
would like to treat naturally. This is a great way to know how to focus your
class and give people a glimpse at what the oils could do for them individually.
Find ways to connect with people and educate them on the products that will
make a difference in their life.
What Are Essential Oils? *
Essential oils are aromatic liquids that are extracted from plants through steam
distillation.

Steam distillation is the process used to separate the essential oils from the plant
material. As the plant material is softened with water, the steam that rises
contains the essential oils. This is genuine, therapeutic-grade oil from a first
distillation. This same plant matter can be distilled many more times to extract
more oil, but each distillation produces oil that is less and less potent. It takes
5,000 lbs of Rose petals to make 2 cups of Rose oil.

3

Why Essential Oils? *
Medicinal herbs have been used for centuries to enhance wellness. When
plants are dried for tea or supplements, 95-97% of the essential oil is lost
along with the plants ability to keep us healthy.

Essential oils provide the complete chemical profile of the plant in every
drop. One drop of peppermint is equivalent to 28 cups of peppermint tea.

5 mL bottles of oil contain 85-100 drops and 15 mL bottles contain 250-
300 drops and we use only a few drops at a time. This makes the essential
oils extremely cost effective!

They can be used to kill bacteria, fungi, and viruses. They can also
stimulate tissue and nerve regeneration.

Essential oils are intelligent. They are able to cross the blood-brain barrier
and affect every cell in your body within twenty minutes! This means that
when you use an oil, it can help body systems you didnt even know were
out of balance.

They can balance mood, lift spirits, and dispel negative emotions. Oils
contain sesquiterpines (Ses-quit-er-peens), which help oxygenate the brain,
particularly around the pituitary and pineal glands, which regulate our
feel-good hormones. This is why aromatherapy is such a powerful way to
support emotions.

Of course, not all oils on the market are therapeutic grade essential oils.

The Young Living Difference *
Young Living has been the world leader in essential oils for more than 20 years.
They offer nearly 200 single oils and blend options, more than any other
company.

Gary Young, the founder of Young Living, is a world-renowned essential oils
expert. He had a vision to create a company that made genuine, therapeutic
grade essential oils... so he traveled the world learning and researching
distillation methods and medicinal plants used by different cultures around the
world.

Gary learned that the process of producing a pure oil began with the seed.
Coming from a farming background, he knew the importance of growing and
harvesting the plants properly. All of this led to what Young Living calls the
Seed to Seal guarantee. They are one of the only companies in the world
that controls the entire process from beginning to end. Young Living goes
beyond organic standards and uses NO chemicals on their farms. They also
test every batch of oil to assure the highest therapeutic value and only 28% are
accepted and bottled. The rest are sent to the farms to be used as pesticides.

Young Living Seed to Seal Guarantee: At Young Living we take our
stewardship of the planet and its inhabitants very seriously. We diligently
scrutinize every step of our production process to bring you the purest products
earth has to offer. We call it Seed to Seal. Its not a slogan its our calling.

Here you might share a few of the reasons why you choose to use
Young Living Essential oils.

Young Living has seven farms on five different continents, which allows them
to grow plants in a variety of natural environments from arid mountain to
tropical rainforest:

How to Use Essential Oils *
There are three ways you can use essential oils: inhalation, ingestion, and
topical application.
Inhalation
Inhalation is breathing in the oil. You can:
Breathe directly from the bottle.
Put a drop or two in your hands to breathe in.
Use the tent method by putting a few drops of oil in a bowl of warm water
and leaning over the bowl with a towel over your head.
Diffuse the oils into the air with a diffuser. Diffusers are made specifically
to put the oils in the air without heating them. Do not put oils in a
humidifier, it can break down the plastic, and the oils tend to just float on
the top of the water.

Inhalation is an extremely effective method of reaching the pituitary gland,
which helps regulate feel-good hormones!
Ingestion
Ingestion is actually taking the oils internally. I do not recommend ingesting
ANY oils other than Young Living. It is the only company that I can attest to
the purity of. You can tell if an oil has been approved as an internal
supplement by looking at the label on the back.

Show the supplement label on the back of Lavender or Peppermint.

Oils with this supplement label have been deemed safe for internal
consumption. These oils can be added to water, tea, or taken in a capsule.
Those with chronic liver or kidney conditions, or women who are pregnant or
nursing should not ingest the oils. Oils are powerful, and should be treated
respectfully. Always use caution when ingesting an oil for the first time, and
add a carrier oil (coconut or olive oil) to hot oils when you ingest them.

Topical Application
Topical application is the method of applying the oils topically to the skin.
This is the most common form of application. Anything we put on our skin
goes into the blood stream within 20 seconds, so making sure that what we put
on our skin is genuine and unadulterated is essential!

Some oils can also be hot to the skin. It is important to use a carrier oil when
applying hot oils, when applying oils to sensitive skin areas, or when applying
to children and pregnant women.

A carrier oil is a fatty vegetable oil such as coconut, olive, or almond oil. You
want to assure that you use a good quality carrier oil so as not to interfere with
the quality of your Essential Oils! Canola, corn and plain vegetable oils are not
good quality oils! You want an organic, cold pressed oil. Young Living has a
carrier oil called V-6 that you can get.

You can apply oils almost anywhere! Some common places of application are:

We have Vita Flex points on the bottom of our feet that connect to every major
area in our body. This may seem kooky, but put a clove of garlic in your shoe
and then walk around the room... see how long it takes for you to taste it in
your mouth!

Everyday Oils *
Now were going to talk about specific oils. Young Living has hundreds of oils
and blends, so Im just going to focus on the 10 most commonly used and
versatile oils. These are called the Everyday Oils.

The single oils well talk about are:
Lavender
Peppermint
Lemon
Frankincense

The oil blends well talk about are:
Purification
Peace & Calming
Thieves
Panaway
Valor
Joy

Pass around each of the oils as you talk about the uses for them to give
everyone an opportunity to smell and experience them. You may
want to share your thoughts on the way each oil smells and ask each
person their thoughts on the scent of the oil. One testimony from our
team for each oil and blend has been provided for you. Feel free to
use your own testimony without making medical or disease claims.
Your friends want to hear YOUR experiences.

Lavender Oil *
Lavender is one of Young Livings most popular oils. They are currently
the largest grower of Lavender in the world!

Lavender is good for:

Sleep You can apply to the back of the neck or feet.

Skin Issues, Cuts, Wounds It can be applied directly to the area.

Skin affected by heat or sun Apply directly to burn, or mix with
water to spray on sunburn.

Seasonal Sneezing Encourages proper nasal function. Diffuse or
swipe inside nostrils with a Q-tip.

Calming and Relaxing add to a carrier oil for a massage or add to
baking soda and mix in bath water.

Testimony: Ashley and her family go to Colorado every year in the
summer, and every year she would deal with major sneezing and stuffy
noses. When she first started using oils, she decided to take her diffuser and
oils with them to Colorado. She diffused lavender in their room at night,
and applied lavender to the temples any time she felt sneezy. The few
mornings she woke up stuffy, she added a drop of peppermint oil to her tea
and it opened her right up. For the first time, she was able to enjoy an
entire trip to Colorado without a day or two of feeling awful!

Peppermint Oil *
Peppermint is another one of Young Livings most popular oils. It isnt
recommended to use peppermint on children under the age of 5, as it can
cause respiratory issues in 2% of children. If used on young children, dilute
well and apply to the bottom of the feet or away from face. Peppermint can
also be a hot oil and should be diluted with a carrier oil.

Peppermint is good for:

Elevated Body Temperature You can apply to the back of the neck
or bottom of feet.

inhale from palms.

Testimony: When Candi attended her first essential oils class, she had
been dealing with headaches on a daily basis since becoming pregnant with
her son (who was 4 or 5 months old at the time of the class.) When she
heard peppermint could be helpful for headaches, she put some on the back
of her neck. Not only was her headache gone by the end of class, but she
woke up the next morning without one for the first time in months!

Lemon Oil *
Lemon oil is extracted from the peel of the lemon. It can also be a hot oil
and should be diluted with a carrier oil.

Lemon is good for:

Supports healthy function of the digestive system, gall bladder,
kidneys, bladder & urinary tract.

having a difficult time sleeping. He rubbed lemon and peppermint on his
sternum with a carrier oil and it immediately relieved his discomfort!

Frankincense Oil *
Frankincense oil is extracted from the resin of the frankincense tree. It is a
powerful therapeutic oil. It stimulates the limbic system of the brain, the
center of memory and emotions.

Frankincense is good for:

Skin/Wrinkles Apply 1 drop in facial moisturizer.

all the way up over her belly button. She used a combination of
frankincense, lavender, and coconut oil over her abdomen daily and saw a
huge reduction in the depth and appearance of her stretch marks!

Purification Blend *
Purification is a blend containing the single oils of citronella, lemongrass,
lavandin, rosemary, melaleuca A. (tea tree), and myrtle. As the name
suggests it has a purifying scent.

Purification is good for:

Smells Diffuse, drop, or spray in smelly areas to neutralize odors.

Minor Skin Irritations Apply topically to help with itching or
stinging.

Bug Repellant Diffuse or spray on skin and clothing to repel bugs.

Blisters/Splinters Apply topically to reduce blisters or aid the body
in removing splinters.

Testimony: Carrie had a friend coming to visit and on her way out was
stung by a couple of wasps. By the time she got to Carries house her hand
was swollen to the point that she could barely flex her fingers and was in a
lot of pain. Carrie put Purification on the sting sites and rubbed Panaway
on the rest of the hand. Within a few minutes they could visibly see the
swelling going down, and within an hour the swelling was gone! She could
bend her fingers and the pain had disappeared!

Peace & Calming Blend *
Peace & Calming is a blend containing the single oils of blue tansy,
patchouli, tangerine, orange, and ylang ylang. It was created to be a
calming scent and bring a sense of peace.

Peace & Calming is good for:

Promotes Restful Sleep Apply to feet or the back of the neck.

Emotional Support Diffuse or apply to the back of the neck to help

or tantrums.

Testimony: Ashleys son was 6 years old and had been randomly saying
for months, I just feel weird in my tummy. She had tried identifying the
source of this feeling, without much success. He wasnt hungry, sick, and
he didnt need to go to the bathroom. One day he said this again as they
were driving in the rain and Ashley thought that he might be dealing with
nerves. When he confirmed that he was feeling nervous about the storm,
she handed him a bottle of Peace & Calming. Immediately after inhaling
from the bottle, the weird feeling in his tummy went away! She now uses
Peace & Calming on him anytime he is feeling nervous!

Thieves Blend *
Thieves is a blend made of the single oils clove, lemon, cinnamon bark,
eucalyptus (E. radiata,) and rosemary. The legend goes that during the
black plague there was a group of apothecaries who lost their business when
trading stopped. In order to feed their families, they began robbing the
bodies of those who had died. They managed to keep from getting the
plague by keeping a specific blend of herbs in their pockets. These herbs are
the foundation of the Thieves blend. Thieves can be a hot oil and should be
diluted, and use with caution on children under the age of 5.

Thieves is good for:

Air Purification - Diffused, it kills 99.96% of airborne bacteria! Can
also eliminate mold in the room.

Immune Support Apply to bottom of the feet.

Sore Throat 1 drop of in a glass of water or use Thieves spray.

Mouth Sores Apply to affected area.

Toothache Apply to affected area to reduce infection and pain.

Testimony: Ashleys family became ill right after Thanksgiving. She was
going into a busy time at work and couldnt take any time off. The
moment she began to show signs of coming down with something (sore,
scratchy throat), she began taking Thieves internally and applying it and
lemon oil over her lymph glands. The illness was never able to settle into
her body! She got a few sniffles and sinus congestion, but not the full-blown
illness, like her family had.

Panaway Blend *
Panaway is a blend of the single oils helichrysum, wintergreen, clove, and
peppermint. It was created primarily as a pain reliever. Because it
contains wintergreen, it is not recommended for use on children under the
age of 12. This is why it has a childproof cap on it. Can be hot to some,
and should be diluted.

Panaway is good for:

Occasional Muscle Pain Apply topically to sore area.

Age Related Muscle or Joint Pain Apply on location.

Lower Backache Apply to lower back and partner with Valor for
effectiveness.

Toothache Apply to the cheek or jaw of affected area.

Minor pain due to stress Apply to the base of skull and/or temples.

Testimony: Denise had severe pain and discomfort in her right shoulder
and hip due to working out. This pain would not go away no matter how
much she stretched or applied over the counter and prescription ointments.
These would temporarily numb the pain, but not get rid of it. She
experienced this for about 5 months when she got her Everyday Oils kit.
She applied 2 drops of Panaway with coconut oil and massaged it into her
hip flexor and shoulder morning and night. By the 3
rd
day all her pain was
gone, as well as the feeling that her hip or shoulder would come out of
socket! She has not had to treat the areas again and feels as if she grew a
new shoulder and hip flexor!

Valor Blend *
Valor is a blend of the single oils rosewood, blue tansy, frankincense, and
spruce. It was created to give a sense of confidence. It is often called
chiropractor in a bottle for the way it can align the spine and balance the
nervous system.

Valor is good for:

Back/Spine Apply to spine for comfort. Great in combination with
chiropractics to help your spine hold the adjustment.

Focus Apply on the back of neck to center scattered energy.

Confidence Diffuse or apply topically to help boost confidence.

Snoring/Sleep Issues Apply to the bottom of the feet.

Hormones Apply to the wrists and take several deep breaths to clear
foggy brain.

Jaw Discomfort- Apply to location. Helps support healthy bone
structure.

Testimony: Tiffineys 7 year old son has sensory issues and was having
trouble focusing on his teacher at school. One day, after about three weeks
of putting Valor on him before school, he actually asked for it. When
Tiffiney asked why he liked it, he said Because it helps me listen to my
teacher! His teacher began commenting on his improved work and focus
without even knowing what Tiffiney was doing differently. She began
adding Brain Power to the routine, and three months later her son received
three academic awards at school!

Joy Blend *
Joy is a blend of the single oils rose, bergamot, mandarin, ylang ylang,
lemon, geranium, jasmine, palmarosa, Roman chamomile, and rosewood.
It was created to bring the frequency of Joy and Love to those who wore it.

Joy is good for:

Perfume Has a flowery scent that smells wonderful on women

Romance Apply to lower abdomen to promote romantic feelings in
women.

Moodiness/Blues Diffuse or apply over heart to overcome feelings of
grief & mood swings.

Blood Pressure Apply over heart or on the bottom of feet to help
bring balance, and support the cardiovascular system.

Joy Diffuse in the home to bring a sense of peace and joy to the
home.

Testimony: Mark and Teresa applied Joy to their wrists and the nape of
their necks every morning for mood enhancing and uplifting. It tends to set
the mood of their day. When they miss an application they notice a
difference. Mark suffers with headaches, and since applying it over the last
3 months, he has not experienced a headache.
