Essential Oils

Essential oils are everywhere nowadays!  Odds are that you have most likely come across essential oils while shopping at your local supermarket/grocery store, on display at house-ware stores, on your friend's social media, at yoga studios/gyms, in the aisles at beauty supply stores, and seen them at booths for community events.  But what exactly are essential oils and what is all the hype about?  "Essential oils are concentrated plant extracts obtained by careful steam distillation, cold pressing, or resin tapping."   At River Blossom Wellness, LLC we carry and use Young Living Essential Oils to complement our approach to holistic wellness.  Essential oils carry a multitude of uses, such as: creating a calming atmosphere, enhancing meditation practice, soothing sore muscles, adding flavor to water, and so much more.

How to Use Essential Oils

There are 3 main ways to use Young Living essential oils: aromatically, topically, and internally.  Each oil varies in how it can be used, which can be found on its individual product label (or consulting with an Essential Oil Reference Guide, the EO app, or simply searching online).  The most common way to use oils is aromatically by: rubbing a drop or two on your palms before inhaling; adding drops into a bowl of hot water before covering your head & bowl with a towel and breathing slow, deep breaths; and using essential oils in one of Young Living's diffusers. To use essential oils topically you can place 1-3 drops directly on the desired area and massage in (making sure to follow the label's dilution instructions) and there are tons of DIY recipes found online that can be made using essential oils (such as makeup remover, bug sprays, fabric refresher, etc).

Young Living Products

Here at River Blossom Wellness, LLC some of the reasons we choose to use Young Living Essential Oils is due to the ability to visit the farms where the oils are harvested, the pureness of the oils, and the array of products they carry in four main categories: (essential oils, home care, healthy & fit, and personal care products).  Essential oils can be found in either singles (a bottle of one type of oil - an example of this would be Lavender) or blends (a combination of multiple oils - an example of this would be Thieves). Our top 10 favorite products that we use at River Blossom Wellness, LLC are: Lavender Essential Oil, Tranquil Roll-On, Stress Away Roll-On, Frankincense Essential Oil, Peace & Calming Essential Oil, Envision Essential Oil, Thieves Essential Oil, Lemon Vitality, Purification Essential Oil, and Sacred Mountain Essential Oil.

How to Order

There are two ways to order Young Living products: become a wholesale member or become a retail member.  The benefits to becoming a wholesale member are that you receive a 24% product discount; you will get a diffuser, 11 essential oils, & much more (if you order a Premium Starter Kit); you have the option to take part in the Essential Rewards program, and you have the ability to gain income by sharing Young Living products with others - if you choose to do so.  Wholesale membership requires you to purchase a starter kit (which vary in price from $45 up to $260) and purchase $50 of product a year to remain active.  Retail members pay full price for Young Living products, require no minimum purchase to remain active members, and are not required to purchase a starter kit - although diffusing essential oils is one of the best ways to experience their benefits!  The choice is yours!  Either way, you are making an investment into your health and wellness!
