  • Less than a year ago, my daughter had me attend "oils 101" class. About a week later, I signed up.
    Now, I can't imagine not being part of this wonderful company.
    When my young grandchildren are here, which is all the time, and if they get hurt,
    they ask to be oiled.
    My husband says I should get a tin man t-shirt that says "oil me". LOL
    Yes, I have a Young Living oil addiction, and I will not go to therapy!

  • It's impossible to name a "favorite" because they are all favorites - and I want one of each on hand at all times! ADDICTED!

  • Number 21 ... just one cupboard??? err I must have a serious problem - mine are stored all over the house, bag, car, desk at work . #22 all gift for friends are oils or 'make by own' spritz, blend, bath salts :-)

  • Today I made a room and fabric freshener using Geranium oil. I feel happy about using Geranium, which is also useful for skincare. That essential oil literally lifts my mood every time I inhale straight from the bottle or diffuse some. I love working with Young Living for my own wellness, and who knows? When the time is right I might actually create a business for myself as my body heals from traumatic events in recent years. I admire and respect the Young's and wish them continued success on every level as they promote wellness, peace and prosperity for all working with Young Living Essential Oils. Blessings!

  • #22. You have so many oils from all the ER freebies that you probably won't consume them all in your lifetime
    #23 you have oils and diffusers in just about every room of your house

    Love my oils! Don't go anywhere without them.

  • Definitely addicted to my oils...check my back pack every day before heading out to work....oils, iphone and water....wake up hit the diffuse button, blue cypress and sacred frankincense all over my head, valor on my feet, joy on my heart, abundance and ylang ylang....think i'm ready to go...lemon, grapefruit or lime in my water all day...stress away splashed all over on not so good days!...home...lavender and clary sage for a good night sleep...and all my other lovely oils for all the other stuff :)

  • I carry stress away with me at all times. I get up out of bed if I forgot an oil for night time. Can't seem to live without them. May need to get a second job . :D
