Autoship Programs – the Good, the Bad and the Ugly

September 27, 2010 in Aromatherapy, Buy / Purchase, Common Questions, Education, How do I use, News, Shop, Wholesale / Member, Young Living Distributor by Curt Siters | No comments

Autoship is system whereby a company rewards loyal customers with lower prices. Many companies make use of it to provide a constant stream of product to their customers. It is used mostly by companies that sell consumables, however, some companies that do not sell consumables use it as well.

It comes in many guises. Young Living has an autoship program. Time magazine has an autoship program. The Wall Street Journal has an autoship program. Anything you have delivered on a regular basis is an autoship program. A book of the month club, the cheese of the month club and others like them are autoship programs. Even your home delivered newspaper can be an autoship program. Some of the names are autoship, continuity, home delivery, club and others.

Companies such as Guthy-Renker (having products like Wen by Chaz Dean, Principle Secret by Victoria Principle, Natural Advantage by Jane Seymore and others) and Young Living excel at the autoship program. The important thing is to understand how the program works and to use it to your benefit.

The Good

The benefits of autoship are many and varied, but they all have the same basics. Read the rest of this entry »

It is a well known fact that we are what we eat. When we consume wholesome and nutritious food, our bodies are stronger, more resilient and better capable of allowing us to enjoy a wider range of experiences. We feel supple and healthy!

Your physical body has an energetic counterpart that must also be nourished properly to serve us and to afford us a more rich and deep experience of life. This energetic counterpart is your 7th Sense. We all have an innate sense of Intuition, however many of us are not aware of the more highly attuned 7th Sense. With your well honed 7th Sense you can make better decisions, you can heal your life, and you can be of service to others as you align with the Universe!

In this webinar, you will learn:

The difference between Intuition and your 7th Sense
How to better understand your System-Mind, Body, Spirit
How to master your emotions with essential oils
To hone your natural sensitivities
To use Essential Oils and Aromatherapy to evolve your consciousness
How to open up to Extraordinary Knowing
How to heal your System and increase your Energy with oils
And much more…

With more people becoming conscious of global warming and chemicals used daily in homes causing us very real harm I find it surprising to hear that some consider using Equal or Sweet ‘n Low as a ‘Natural’ ant killer. It’s as if they think these sugar substitutes are as harmless as regular cane sugar. For those who think cane sugar is bad for your health they would be happy to know they”ve been ill advised by marketing. Taking a closer look at this industry we find…

Scientists were working on a new ulser drug when one of the scientists discovered this poisonous substance was incredibly sweet… and that is where the story of sugar substitutes begins, as a product made to kill ants.

Aspartame was endorsed by the U.S. FDA as a safe product in 1981, and has been ever since, and recommended by many doctors as a good alternative sweetener.

By the 1990’s, the FDA had a list of 92 symptoms reported to them by 10,000 consumers, a list revealed to the public under the Freedom of Information Act. This alone is enough to make you seriously question… “who” is the FDA working for??? It’s certainly NOT us!

Sold commercially as NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, Equal-Measure and Canderel – aspartame can be found in more than 6,000 products, including but not limited to: Read the rest of this entry »

Cinnamon Essential Oil as a Pesticide in Mosquito Larvae Control

July 7, 2010 in Application, Best Essential Oils, Buy / Purchase, Education, Gardening, Green, How do I use, Insect Pests / Repellant, Make My Own, Natural, News, Parasites, Quality / Pure, Science, Therapeutic-grade Essential Oil, Using Essential Oils by Evelyn Vincent | No comments

I love powdered cinnamon and therapeutic Cinnamon Bark essential oil from Young Living Essential Oils, which is one of my favorites. It’s especially nice in blends, such as the very popular Thieves essential oil blend. In the study below it was found that cinnamon ‘leaf’ oil from the species Cinnamomum osmophloeum has simplar properties as Cinnamomum cassia, which has a Trans-cinnamaldehyde content of 70-88 percent. Cinnamon Bark Cinnamomum verum has a trans-cinnamaldehyde content of 40-50 percent and a Eugenol content of 20-30 percent.

This is all worth noting because all aromatherapy oils labeled ‘Cinnamon’ rarely come from any of the species mentioned above – and – even more rarely are they distilled properly from the ‘bark’ – this makes a huge difference in the results, whether used to kill insect pests, killing micro-organisms, or in healing. See my previous article, Does Your Cinnamon Bark and Benefit?

When I read a study with findings like this there are things I would want the reader to know before making any attempt to kill insect pests, the environment, or using the essential oil with humans. First, Cinnamon Bark essential oil is considered a ‘hot’ essential oil; meaning it’s spicy and could irritate skin when used topically, it could also irritate mucous membranes when inhaled if it’s diffused alone for long periods of time, and should always be diluted. Environmentally speaking, any superior quality essential oil could damage plants, beneficial insects, fish, frogs/toads – so always be extremely mindful not to use large amounts and make sure to only target the pest and not something we value to get the best results.

Always remember… ‘one’ drop of a superior quality essential oil is many times more powerful than a large bottle of a lesser quality essential oil! Read the rest of this entry »

How to Beat the Summertime Heat… my thoughts and a tip

July 6, 2010 in Application, Eco-Friendly, Education, Family Health, Green, Inspirational, Lifestyle, Men's Health, Mind / Body / Soul, Natural, Natural Health, News, Peppermint, Science, Wellness, Women's Health by Evelyn Vincent | No comments

There’s no doubt, this year has been a real scorcher. We’re not having a heat wave in the mountains of western NC right now, though I will say it’s damn hot in the direct sun. I see that the northeast is getting hit again and can’t help but think that as soon as it cools off up there we’ll get a heat wave down here (it happened last time there was one).

It’s during those scorching near or over 100 degree days that I sit here in front of my fan, or in the basement with my bare feet on the cool concrete floor thinking…

“…you know, it’s our own fault. It’s due to human selfishness, ignorance, stupidity, and greed that we’re in the mess we’re in! And it’s not likely to get any better unless all of us take drastic action right away.”

About five years ago I made some conscious choices based on things I was seeing and hearing, but mostly… it was my heart and gut speaking to me and saying, “do everything you can, as soon as you can!”

By that time I had long given up on buying and using things like paper towels and began using cloth napkins – they can be washed, hung on a clothesline to dry, and reused. I had also bought some very heavy canvas tote bags to use for shopping – I refused those trendy, pretty canvas totes because they just won’t hold up to years and years of use, I wanted bags that will last 15-20 years – not 1 or 2!

Do you ever feel like you could use a quick pick me up to feel happier? Have you ever thought of how a scent changes how you feel, or brings up memories of someone or something from your past? When you get to feeling low and want to get away from that feeling what do you do?

It is inevitable that we all are going to have bad moments or bad days. From stubbing our toe, breaking a glass, or getting some bad news. Suggestion, try not watching the news for a week. We here about the news in our every day lives, and it is most likely going to be sad, bad news, so why not remove oneself from it for a while. You may realize you don’t need to watch the news. You won’t miss out, because if you don’t watch it on TV, for sure you will hear about it from someone.

So what kind of quick fixes are there that may help you to feel better? Better yet, is this quick fix going to help you to feel better in a natural way rather than using a drug or chemical of some sort. The answer is YES!!

Being a regular user of therapeutic-grade essential oils I am aware of the joyful, uplifting oils that are available. I always start my day applying an essential oil and I have available with me at all times, different essential oils that may help me or others for various circumstances.

What are some essential oils that could be used to help one be in a happier mood? Read the rest of this entry »

Protein Helps Elderly Prevent Hip Fractures: does it really and why it wouldn’t

May 11, 2010 in Acidic / Alkaline, Calcium, Digestion, Education, Family Health, Lifestyle, Longevity, Men's Health, Minerals, Natural Health, News, Nutrition / Diet, Science, Supplements / Vitamins, Wellness, Women's Health by Evelyn Vincent | No comments

In a study it was found that seniors who consumed a higher level of dietary protein are less likely to suffer hip fractures than seniors whose daily dietary protein intake is less, according to the Institute for Aging Research of Hebrew SeniorLife in Boston, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School.

The study, which examined the daily protein intake of 946 seniors from the Framingham Osteoporosis Study, found that individuals who were in the lowest 25 percent of dietary protein intake had approximately 50 percent more hip fractures than those who consumed greater amounts of dietary protein (all within normal intakes). Those who suffered hip fractures consumed less than the 46 grams of dietary protein per day recommended for adults.

The study, which was funded in part by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, builds on previous studies that included mostly women and reported a relationship between greater dietary protein intake and decreased risk of hip fracture.

However, other studies have shown the opposite and there is a reason for this [be sure to see below - Why some studies show increased protein increases urinary calcium loss]. Read the rest of this entry »
