Dear YL community
Here’s a 5 minute video giving you a broad overview of our incredible resources to remind you of all juicy, informative, no BS health and wellness information we’ve created for you at your fingertips:
Head to the Member Resources page of my website where everything is laid out in once place. This page is password protected so if you don’t know the password please contact your wellness mentor or email me.
This huge wealth of information has been built up over the years and is constantly being added to as we amas more learnings and intellectual property month after month. Sure you can ask me or your oily mentor for the answers to all your low tox and wellness questions but what is far more empowering is for YOU to feel that YOU know where to quickly find the answers yourself.
As the age-old proverb goes, you can give a man a fish but what is more empowering is giving him a fishing rod and teaching him to fish.
Knowledge is indeed empowering. Knowing where to find the answers yourself at any hour of the day or night is a game-changer. When we feel empowered with knowledge, we feel as though we have choice. And choice brings us the opportunity to radically uplevel the health and happiness and people and planet.
Love Soulla xx

We are often asked if it is safe to use and diffuse essential oils on and around pets. Many people are very sceptical and concerned about using oils on or near pets. When it comes to oils we know that not all oils are created equal and Gary Young’s love for animals and his use of the YL oils on them means that we can take great comfort in knowing that the YL oils are, generally speaking, safe for your pets and can be used to treat them therapeutically.

Read MoreI had been using essential oils on and off since my early 20s before I stumbled across Young Living 2 decades later. I was what you would call an oils sceptic…thinking that oils were simply something that you burned in your house to smell nice or to use as perfume. It never dawned on me to use them medicinally or to ingest them.

Dear community,
When you think your bottles have run out there is actually still a LOT of precious oil left in there that you can actually use before they get tossed into recycling. Here are some uses you can put your empty bottles to depending on the oil in question:
1. Pop them in the bath
When oils that lend themselves to being used in the bath run out (eg lavender, Stress Away, helichrysum, frankincense, Peace & Calming, lavender etc) I pop them into the bath when I next have one.
2. Submerge them in diffuser water
For any oils that can be diffused, I submerge the entire bottle in the diffuser with water. Rest assured all of the lush essential oil coating the sides of the bottle run into the diffuser water and will fortify the air in your room.
3. Pop them into a glass or jug of cold or hot water
Oils that lend themselves to this are the food grade/culinary oils. See complete list of such oils in the Culinary section of this guide. My favourites are all of the citrus ones, franky, Thieves, and copaiba.
I tend to repeat this process over and over again until I can not taste the oil at all in the water.
4. Pop them into your laundry soaking bucket
Oils that I don’t really want to soak in a bath with and that are not food grade fall into this category. Examples include Purification, Northern Lights Black Spruce, R.C., Kunzea. These cleanse your clothes while they soak and add a lovely scent to them.
For more tips and tricks on all things oils and YL please check out the Oils 101 guide in the Member Resources page.
