How Essential Oils Help Me Accomplish My Goals In My 20’s

When I started thinking about the idea of starting my own blog I kept thinking of different topics I loved that I wanted to talk about and share tips on, to help others live more fulfilling lives – one of those being essential oils!

Motherhood and Parenting blogs kept coming up.

“Ugh, not again!” I thought.

You see, I thought oils were just for moms for a while. I mean, they seem to rule the industry right??

Where was the information for a group of people in their early stages of adulthood? Where were the other 20-somethings out there that I could connect with, bounce ideas off of, and get great advice from?

That’s why I decided to make a blog all about conquering your 20s.

There is so much advice out there for moms, with millions of books and blog posts, but stepping out of college and into adulthood was just as scary in my opinion.

I too needed something that could provide me with natural support in so many areas – like my sleep, my hormones, and my diet to name a few.

That’s when a friend introduced me to essential oils.

Don’t forget to Pin this for later!

What Are Essential Oils??

Essential oils have been changing my life in a million small ways.

I initially had no idea that essential oils could be added to my water or daily meals. I had no clue that essential oils could be used for sleep support, emotional support, hormonal support, and more.

I didn’t know essential oils came directly from the earth and are a completely natural alternative to providing our bodies with the support it needs.

And I was unaware that Young Living sold every household product I could need with essential oils, making my place free of toxins and chemicals

One of the questions I get asked most often is what exactly are these magical little bottles of oils?!

And this is what I say:

Essential oils are the “lifeblood” of a plant. They protect plants & provide their essential nutrients, plants rely on the essential oils to grow and adapt to their surroundings.

Essential oils can be found in a plant’s flower, stem, leaves, bark, or fruit. They are usually extracted through steam distillation. Essential oils are very complex, containing hundreds or thousands of different chemical compounds; this is what gives each plant its unique healing attributes and characteristics.

Young Living Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils are used to bring health and wellness to the body, mentally, emotionally, and physically!

They can reach every cell in your body within 20 minutes when applied topically, help eliminate toxins in your body, help support the different systems of the body, promote healthy emotional wellness, and SO MUCH MORE.

Using your essential oils is so easy – either apply them directly to your skin, add them to your food and drink to take them internally, or diffuse them into the air with a diffuser.

You see, anyone can use essential oils! Not just women, and definitely not just moms!

I believe everyone needs Young Living essential oils in their homes because I have seen first-hand how much they can improve my health and wellness each day.

But why Young Living??

How To Find The Best Essential Oils:

Go into any natural health food store or a shop in your downtown and you’ll probably see those bottles of essential oil on the shelf. And now that Amazon carries them, well come on, I mean they’ve gotta be legit, right??

Well, that’s the thing – anyone can claim to have 100% pure essential oils. You’ll see that every essential oil bottle claims to be 100% pure.

But what I found out in my research is that companies still add water, other chemicals, and other fillers to their oils and are allowed to keep the “100% pure” label on them.

The difference was obvious when I found Young Living.

Young Living has its own farms where they source the oil directly and seals it without any additives or fillers, like the ones in the grocery stores have! It’s their Seed to Seal promise.

By having their own farms they can watch and regulate everything. From the seed, to when it is harvested and distilled, to when it is bottled and shipped to your door, Young Living is watching and testing that bottle of oil.

The company is grounded on quality. They have the purest essential oils on the market that was I able to find.

This is so important because you are breathing in these oils, applying them to your skin, and taking them internally to help improve your body’s function in a natural way.

If you purchase cheap oils, what’s even the point of purchasing the oils?? The problems you are trying to solve with the oils from the store may actually be hurting you or not solving any problems at all.

To be extreme, Young Living doesn’t even use pesticides or chemicals on their farms and on the crops they harvest.

Here’s an excerpt from their seed to seal promise on their website: “Young Living embraces a rigorous quality control standard to help ensure our products meet strict specifications. Seed to Seal is our set of standards that helps ensure that with every pure essential oil and Young Living product your family uses, you’re enjoying the benefits of our global resources, industry leadership, and over two decades of innovation.

You already care about your health, so don’t compromise with the products you buy.

That begs the next question…

Why Should You Use Essential Oils Daily??

Consistency is key when it comes to essential oils.

In my 20s I have a lot of life going on. So much buzzing around me it seems, and that exactly is why I rely on essential oils to get me through each day.

Using my essential oils (and Young Living products infused with essential oils) daily allows me to maximize my health and conquer my goals.

When I first started using my oils I would apply them once in a while, like before bed in the morning, or add a vitality oil to my daily coffee. I would see a slight change sometimes but wasn’t sure the oils were actually used.

The more I looked into oils and the more I used them each day, the more changes I began to see.

Oils change small things that make a huge difference. Here’s an example of how I use my oils daily.

My Daily Oil Routine:

In the morning I do my mourning routine (see how to set up a good morning routine here) and part of that includes popping Peppermint essential oil & Valor essential oil into my diffuser.

As I begin working, the oils help promote focus and feelings of confidence.

Throughout the day I will apply the Stress Away essential oil blend & Thieves essential oil blend onto my wrists to promote feelings of calmness and increase my immune support.

At night, I diffuse Lavender essential oil & Cedarwood essential oil to aid in my sleep support.

These are just a couple of oils I use on a regular basis. If you get me talking I could name about 20 more that I use regularly in just these simple ways.

Using oils is super easy, the key is just investing in them and actually using them.

Other places around the home you’ll find essential oils:

Kitchen: Thieves Dish Soap, Thieves Fruit & Veggie soak, & Copaiba Vitality essential oil

Bathroom: Orange Vitality essential oil, Thieves toothpaste, Frankincense essential oil, ART moisturizer, a Charcoal bar of soap, Lavender Shampoo & Conditioner, Mint Face Scrub, Dragon Time Shower Gel, & Tea Tree essential oil
