Young living has a blend that is called JOY- it is one I really love. When you are feeling down, Joy will help lift your spirits and it smells really good, too!
Here's a funny little thing I did. One time when I was low on Thieves cleaner I used a few drops of Joy to help clean in our bathroom. The bathroom smelled great and I'm sure the people who used that bathroom came out in a much better mood than when they went in. haha :)

LAVENDER OIL- FOR SUNBURN-CUTS-SLEEP
Lavender oil is an oil I am constantly learning new things about.
I had heard that someone had used it on a bad burn, so one day when I got a bad sunburn on my face I rubbed this amazing oil all over my face. I am fair skinned and sunburn easily. If I get burned it is very painful and then I always peel. This time was different. The lavender oil took the pain and burning away and the next day the burn was almost gone and I never peeled!
It can be used to cleanse and soothe burns, cuts and skin irritations. Its scent is relaxing, refreshing- can help calm the mind and body. I know many people who use it to help them sleep. They just apply it to the bottom of their feet or add a drop to their pillow. ( I do need to warn that some essential oils will stain so please keep this in mind.)

PURIFICATION- OIL BLEND- INSTANTLY DEODORIZES AND NEUTRALIZES
PURIFICATION is a wonderful oil blend from Young Living! It instantly deodorizes and neutralizes the air.
It has a refreshing scent. It also contains citronella, so it helps to deter insects and soothe minor bites.
We use it for so much. One of the things we do is keep it in the bathroom. Just get yourself a little spray bottle, ( the ones we use only hold 2 or 3 ounces) put about 6 drops of the Purification oil in it and fill the rest with water and shake it up. We leave a bottle in each bathroom. :)
It can help in other ways, too. I know someone who smokes and they spray themself with a mixture like I just mentioned to help remove the smoke smell. There are so many uses for this oil blend- it is wonderful! I'm sure you can come up with a few ideas of your own. I don't like to be without it.
You can also diffuse it and make your house smell fresh and clean.

PEPPERMINT OIL-FOR PAIN - OR COOLING DOWN IN HEAT OF SUMMER
Peppermint oil has so many uses. I'm going to share two of them with you right now.
PEPPERMINT IN WATER HELPS COOL YOU OFF.
Here in Arizona the summers can get pretty hot. Here is a little tip that we have found helpful. Put a drop or two of peppermint oil in the water you are drinking. It's refreshing and it does tend to help you feel cooler. (Please only use Young Living oils for this- they are pure, and I know they are safe for this)
PEPPERMINT OIL FOR PAIN
I have heard and also found in my own case that peppermint oil helps with pain. If my shins or back are hurting I rub peppermint oil on them and it really does help.

ESSENTIAL OILS TO FLAVOR WATER
How many of us would like something with a little flavor in it with dinner or other times, but don't want all that sugar that pop has?
Here is a little suggestion that may help you with something that tastes great without all the calories. Add a drop or two to your water- there are many flavors to choose from- lemon, orange, tangerine, grapefruit to name a few. It tastes great and exxential oils have oxygen in them so you will be adding that too. They also have great health benifits. If you do not feal it is sweet enough- you can always sweeten it with stevia a natural sweetener. (Stevia is an herb) Myself, I think it is just fine the way it is without sweetening it.
A PICK ME UP
I have also found in my own experience that if I'm feeling low on energy I just get a glass of water and add a drop or two of an oil and I feel more energetic. It really picks me up.

LEMON OIL- HELPS BERRIES LAST LONGER
LEMON OIL HELPS BERRIES LAST LONGER
There is so much tthat can be said about lemon oil-It is believed to boost the body's natural defences- an excellent source of d-limonene. It's wonderful citrus scent can be used as an instant pick me up, but what I want to share with you today is something I found to be very interesting and helpful to me.
How many of us buy berries (strawberries, blue berries, raspberries) bring them home from the grocery store and put them away. Later we go to use them only to find that they have gone bad or molded in the refrigerator? They just simply do not seem to last very long.
Someone shared with me that if you take your berries home, clean them then put a drop of lemon ( one drop only) in a glass of water and pour this over the berries they will last much longer. It does work. It's great! I have even started to do that with my spinach and salad mix and had the same results. With the price of groceries today it's always good to hear things that help things last longer.
