Catch some zzzs with our limited-edition Sleep Kit

We don’t need to tell you the importance of a good night’s sleep. Chances are you’ve experienced for yourself just how disruptive bad sleep can be on your body, on your mind and on your mood.

To help you drift off to dream land, we are excited to bring you the special-edition Sleep Kit—our trio of Lavender 5 ml, Lavender Honey and a Lavender Neck Pillow, available exclusively throughout February.

Click here to discover how our limited-edition Sleep Kit can set the mood to help you wake up feeling brighter and refreshed , and read on to find out more about the power of sleep!

12% of people dream entirely in black and white. Before the introduction of colour television, only 15% of people dreamt in colour.

According to the National Sleep Foundation, up to 15% of us are sleepwalkers. It’s also a myth that you should never wake someone who is sleepwalking.

No doubt we have all found it tough to get out of bed on occasion—especially during the dark winter mornings. This is known as Dysania.

On average, humans spend one third of their life sleeping.

Ideally, it should take you around 10-15 minutes to fall asleep at night. If it takes you less than five minutes, chances are you are sleep deprived.

Did you dream last night? Studies say that within five minutes of waking, you will have forgotten around 50% of your dream. After an additional 5 minutes, 90% of recollection is gone.

See our London Leadership Experience highlights

Thank you to all of you who visited us in London for our second London Leadership Experience! Held exclusively in German for the first time, this event saw over 50 members join us for tailored business builder training, specifically designed to equip you with the tools and knowledge to plot your path to Silver and beyond!

Hear from Ali Peimann, our Country Manager for Germany, Austria and Switzerland for his take on the London Leadership Experience:

“It was a great opportunity for Young Living members to meet and celebrate each other! You can find and feel the spirit and vision of YL in every Young Living member story. We had four great leaders as speakers, who shared their stories and best practice tips for building a YL business. They also impressed with their leadership attitude and inspired attendees to follow in their footsteps. We shared an amazing time in the Young Living office and connected members with the Young Living team. The view behind the scenes was a wonderful experience for the members! The sightseeing bus tour which we enjoyed with a special Young Living branded bus was also a great surprise, and the dinner at a beautiful and historic venue in the heart of London was a fantastic experience for everyone. This London Leadership Experience event was a great start to the new year and we cannot wait for the next one!”

Get to know Nicolas and Dominik — our Seed to Seal Experience speakers

Whether you are a YL essential oil lover and enthusiast or want to increase your knowledge to be able to share with others, our 2019 Seed to Seal Farm Experiences are perfect for you.

We have two experiences for you to choose from this year—Helichrysum in Croatia, and Lavender in Provence, France. Or you can choose both! Each experience is created in conjunction with our Young Living Farm Managers to give you the opportunity to see firsthand all the love and purity that goes into our essential oils, and discover a new appreciation for Young Living’s commitment to quality.

Let’s meet our event speakers and YL Farm Managers, Nicolas and Dominik:

Nicolas Landel

Nicolas Landel
Farm Manager, Simiane-la-Rotonde Lavender Farm

Nicolas was literally born into lavender and Young Living. At his birth, both his parents were working at a local distillery where lavender fumes filled the air. It was at that time that his father, Jean-Noël Landel, began his partnership with Gary Young during the early days of Young Living.

At the ripe age of 6 months, he received a foot massage with Lavender essential oil from Gary that has become a legend. He spent his youth playing in the lavender fields and surrounded by essential oils.

For the past seven years, Nicolas has been working alongside his father at the farm, learning from Gary and the other farmers. This extensive experience made him the perfect person to take over the responsibility and management Young Living’s French Farm. He loves learning about how aromatic plants become essential oils—from cultivation to harvesting and finally, distilling—and he loves sharing this knowledge as he travels the world with Young Living.

Dominik Bekavac

Dominik Bekavac
Farm Manager, Dalmatia Aromatic Farm

Dominik Bekavac is German by birth, but grew up in Croatia and has spent most of his career in the world of nature, working with bees and plants. He started farming in 2008 and in 2014 his life took a very big turn when he met Gary Young in Croatia. Years before they met, Dominik had become fascinated by Gary's exceptional knowledge and experience with aromatic plants and was thrilled to personally meet him.

Soon after they met, Gary and Dominik became partners resulting in the development of one of the first, and now, the largest Helichrysum farm in the world. Being mentored by Gary, Dominik has learned about and put into practice the Seed to Seal process at the farm. As the Young Living Farm Manager, he is making sure that the highest standards of farming are met in order to produce the highest quality of Helichrysum essential oil available in the world today. He is very proud of the Dalmatia Aromatic Farm and welcomes our members with great enthusiasm to come and visit.

In his free time, Dominik loves sailing, hiking, and all other outdoor activities. Being in nature is where he enjoys spending time the most.

If you’ve never visited one of our Young Living farms before, you’ll be blown away by the breathtaking natural beauty of endless lavender and helichrysum fields.

My YL

Love Lavender — the Swiss Army knife of essential oils!

Whether you use Lavender essential oil for its topical and aromatic applications or Lavender+ for its culinary and dietary uses, Lavender is popular for its fragrance, flavour and versatility!

Show your love for Lavender and try:

– Rubbing a drop of Lavender onto your palms, then smooth over your pillowcase to enjoy the calming aroma as you drift off to sleep.
– Adding five drops to your evening bath with some Epsom salts, to help soothe a tired body and mind.
– Our Savvy Minerals Mascara! This Lavender-infused natural mascara conditions and nourishes and has been clinically tested for safe use on sensitive eyes.
– Placing a few drops of Lavender oil onto a wet cloth and throw into the dryer to freshen and deodorise your laundry.
– Adding Lavender+ essential oil food supplement to your favourite jams and preserves for extra depth of flavour—tastes seriously good with apricot or peach!
– Diffusing Lavender to create a relaxing atmosphere before sleeping. You can even turn off your room’s main lights and let the light of your favourite diffuser help you adjust to a relaxing mindset. Over time, this evening ritual can start to automatically signify to your body and mind that it’s time for bed.

Known for its many uses, you can never have too many bottles of Lavender essential oil on hand! Receive a free 5 ml bottle when you place a qualifying Essential Rewards order this month (learn more here) or enjoy it as part of our special-edition Sleep Kit alongside Lavender Honey and our Lavender Neck Pillow — exclusively available throughout February!

Love Lavender today, and check out our blog post for more about this essential oil must-have!
