Essential oil

I'm Liz Baker Plosser.

I am your first call on endorphins and essential oils.

Wow.

Really changing it up on everyone.

So that's who I've become.

All right, all right.

Anyway, I'm going deep into the world of learning about essential oils and plants and herbs, so I'll be sure to bring that back at some point.

But instead of that, we'll be talking about...

The results were clear.

The quality of sleep improved significantly when people used lavender essential oil.

The improvements were not small or questionable.

They were substantial and consistent in different groups.

When people have trouble sleeping, stress and the state of depressive mood are usually contributing factors.

Bergamot acts on both.

Clinical studies found that the use of essential oil of bergamot produced significant improvements in depression scores, anxiety levels and general perception of stress.

This is important because a person who is less stressed and less depressed will naturally sleep better.

Hello, everyone.

My name is Amanda Latin, and I'm here today to talk to you about aromatherapy and essential oil blending.

So I work with essential oils and aromatherapy pretty much every day in the different roles that I have.

I'm the Dean of Aromatherapy at American College of Healthcare Sciences.

I'm also currently the Vice President of the Alliance of International Aromatherapists, and I also run an clinical herbal and aromatherapy practice in Portland, Oregon, and get to work with many other integrative health practitioners incorporating aromatherapy into care plans.

So five essential oils that I would pick if I could only have five.

Well, one of the first essential oils I had a healing experience with was geranium essential oil.

So she's a big ally of mine and I would keep her I've also done a lot of work with peppermint for even when I didn't even know I needed an essential oil.

Yeah.

And so the essential oils trend, I, I will always remember this case strikingly, because they were clearly taking large amounts of essential oil, undiluted, and trying to drip it in the concha bowl of their ear.

Okay.

And what started happening is that, of course, it would drip out and it would run down their neck, and they developed a severe contact allergy.

... you could see every drip that had come down and then dried on the skin-

Oh, no

... 'cause they weren't wiping it off 'cause they felt, you know, "It's not gonna be harmful, it's just essential oils."

Yeah.

I'm Bronwyn, and I am here again with my co-hosts, Becky and Andrea.

And we are just kind of taking a little stroll down memory lane today because for us, the reason we even know each other is because of essential oils and the role they've played in our lives, in our homes.

And I don't think we've even fully heard each other's stories.

So we all have been using Young Living Essential Oils for over a decade.

And then we shared the rest of our lives together.

And now we're dear friends and doing this podcast together.

But initially, we all had been introduced to essential oils and how to use them in our homes.

And it really... well, for me, revolutionized the way I approached a lot of wellness care in my home.

Then I discovered frequency.

in the form of essential oils.

Essential oils make your body make a frequency that's different and it helps set things right.

Oils, and then I got into PEMF, which is the mats.

You know, when you go outside and you stand barefoot on the ground, they call it grounded.
