Are you on a weight loss journey?

Many of us are trying to loose weight. It is one of the things that connects us no matter of where we live and what we do. It is the most common New Years resolution as well – To loose weight and get healthier.

As we get older, our metabolism slows down, which leads to weight gain. Weight gain leads to many health issues.

Weight gain happens also when our bodies get stuffed with toxins we absorb daily. Not only through what we eat, but also through what we put on our bodies.

All those chemicals, preservatives, fats and other culprits stay in, filling our bodies like a glass.

There is many ways we can help our bodies to cleanse. We eat heathy, choose organic plant based diet, drink a lot of water and use herbs – gifts from nature- to help us detox and cleanse.

This eventually leads to weight loss, better skin, better sleep and better overall health.

In our family, we are fully dedicated to use the gifts Mother Nature has given us, for our better health and to help others to achieve the same. We combine the power of herbs and plants in Essential oils with Kobayashi Bitters, our very own natural formula.

Me, being me, I have decided to combine these two and I created delicious dish that will help you detox and loose weight. Because eating healthy doesn’t mean it cannot be a treat.

So here it is, my first creation combining Kobayashi Bitters and essential oils.

Morning Bowl

Ingredients1 cup of Pineapple

30 ml of Kobayashi Bitters

5-6 ice cubes

2 drops of Citrus Fresh Essential Oil

2 tbs of organic chia seeds

Method

Blend the pineapple, Kobayashi Bitters a five cubes and pour into a bowl. Stir in 2 tablespoons of organic chia seeds and 2 drops of Young Living’s Citrus Fresh Essential oil and let it sit for 30-60 min. If you do not have Young Livings Essential oils, use few drops of Lemon or Lime instead.

Why using Chia Seeds? I like using chia, because it gives the smoothie thicker texture, almost like a yoghurt or pudding. Also, chia seeds are rich in fiber and protein. I add chia seeds into my fresh juice as well, as it keeps me full longer. Many health experts believe that chia seeds can aid weight loss. Its soluble fiber absorbs large amounts of water and expands in your stomach, which increases fullness and slows the absorption of food

DIY Skincare

Why DIY?
One really SIMPLE way to have products in your home that are safe and free from harmful chemicals is to make them yourself! Making your own products and infusing them with Young Living’s pure essential oils is a COST-EFFECTIVE way to get premium products… BETTER products for a FRACTION of the cost!

FACIAL CLEANSER
Regular cleaning is an important part of healthy, youthful skin; however, you can overdo it. Dermatologists agree that over-washing can lead to irritation and lack of moisture. If you have oily skin, you should wash your face in the morning and evening. If your skin is on the drier side, stick to once daily in the evening. Always wash your face after workouts to prevent breakouts.

TIPS

1) Take your makeup off before you cleanse. Most cleansers won’t remove all of your makeup, so start with an oil-based makeup remover.

2) Avoid drastic temperature changes while cleansing. According to dermatologists, the whole “wash with HOT to open your pores and then finish with COLD to close your pores“ thing is a myth and it can actually cause irritation.

3) It is a good idea to cleanse your face in the shower. Mild steam can help soften hardened oil in pores.

4) Alternate your cleanser 3x a week with a gentle face scrub. Do more or less depending on how your skin feels. The Satin Mint Facial Scrub is A-MA-ZING for exfoliation.

Essential Oil Benefits

• Frankincense gives your skin a youthful appearance.

• Lavender is calming, soothing, and cleansing to the skin.

Facial Toner

The biggest argument in favor of using a skin toner is that it restores your skin’s pH balance. Due to the alkalinity of soap, it causes your skin to be less acidic after cleansing. When the skin needs to work in overdrive to regain its more acidic natural pH level between five and six, it may overproduce oil. Using a toner can help return your skin to its proper pH level.

An alcohol-based toner strips the natural oils, so it is important to use a gentle alcohol-free toner. Make your own toner with a few easy-to-get, highly beneficial ingredients and essential oils that will transform this average toner into a premium product. Use your toner after cleansing and before moisturizing.

Vitamin E is both a nutrient and an antioxidant. Vitamin E oil prevents the formation of wrinkles by blocking free radical damage. It treats wrinkles by boosting collagen production, a connective tissue that keeps skin elastic and supports new skin cell growth and speeds up cell regeneration. If you are more prone to acne, use less or omit this from the recipe, as it is heavy on your skin.

Witch hazel is a plant native to North America and parts of Asia that has been used for centuries for its skin-soothing properties. Its powerful antioxidant and astringent benefits are known to help speed healing, prevent signs of aging, stop cellular damage that can lead to skin cancer, and eradicate bacteria that lives within the pores of the skin.

Essential Oil Benefits

• Frankincense gives your skin a youthful appearance.

• Tea Tree has been used for centuries by the aborigines to cleanse the skin. Note: this oil can be drying to the skin.

• Cypress supports healthy skin. *Use with caution during pregnancy.

• Geranium promotes healthy, clear, glowing skin.

Mud Mask

The minerals in mud are highly effective for absorbing oil from deep within the pores as they dry, trapping the oil in the mud. Mud is often used to detoxify and tone the skin and as an anti-inflammatory agent for skin disorders.

Some other benefits of mud include: reducing signs of aging, improving circulation, shrinking large pores, rinsing away blackheads, and helping to clear acne. Please note that the mud will draw out moisture from your skin as it dries, so it is recommended that you follow up with a moisturizer. ART Light or Intensive Moisturizer are two great options from Young Living’s skin care line.

Essential Oil Benefits

• Spearmint moisturizes and refreshes the skin.

• Tea Tree has been used for centuries by the aborigines to cleanse the skin. Note: this oil can be drying to the skin.

• Lavender has a calm and soothing effect on your skin.

Eye Serum

The goal of an eye serum is to firm your eyes, decrease wrinkles, and reduce bags and dark circles under your eyes. Everybody wants that!

Argan oil is non-greasy and non-irritating, which makes it a great natural moisturizer to hydrate and soften skin and reduce the visibility of wrinkles. With its high vitamin E and fatty acid content, argan oil is ideal to give skin a natural boost.

Almond oil is very popular in Southeast Asia and in the Mediterranean region where the almond tree was first domesticated. It has gained huge popularity in the beauty industry. It creates smooth skin and reduces dark circles under the eyes. According to an article released by “Natural Living Ideas,” some see reduced dark circles in as little as two weeks after applying under the eyes regularly.

Essential Oil Benefits

• Sacred Sandalwood is calming and soothing. It also provides a youthful appearance to your skin.

• Blue Tansy is a rare botanical in the chamomile family. It has become celebrated for its use in luxury skin care products. Contains skin-cleansing and moisturizing benefits.

• Geranium promotes healthy, clear, glowing skin.

• Frankincense is popular for its ability to maintain radiant skin and to smooth the look of healthy skin.

• Lemon contains antioxidants and is refreshing, cleansing, and beneficial to skin.

Sharing is Caring… and earning a paycheck too!

Everybody knows I love Young Living products and company. The people I have met during my 3 years with Young Living are amazing, loving and supportive. Also super motivated.

There is many more other bonuses involved, motivating you and your friends to share. You can literally start your own business with approx 167$!!!

Why is it so easy to share about Young Living?

Well, YL has 650 products to date, not only Essential oils, but Beauty and Personal Care Line, Pet Friendly Products, Seedlings – Baby Line loves by Mommas around the world, , Savvy Minerals make up line, that is promoted by many celebrities and make up artists, accessories, supplements, cleaning line, food and other products, making it easy to share among women and men around the world. Yes, around the world! Young Living is open in most countries and new markets are opening every year! So you are not limited to share among your family and neighbors, the world is your playground! Literally💜.

Absolutely not. You don’t keep stock at home, you simply share what you use and love and people can easily create their own members account and order themselves. The products will be delivered straight to their home. Simple and easy. You connect people with our company and then get paid!

Do I have to order monthly?

No! You have obligation at all to make monthly orders. Naturally, if you join our monthly order system called Essential Rewards, you get rewarded with free gifts and points. But you keep your membership even if you do not want to order monthly and you can just order anytime you want. To keep your account active, you need to order 50 PV(about 50 $) a year.

However if you start sharing with your friends, to earn a paycheck, you need to place 50 PV order that month to be eligible for the Fast Start and Premium Starter Kit bonus. Since the bonus is 50$ and 50 PV order cost about 50$, sherif with just one person gets you your order free! Down the line, to receive more and more bonuses, the minimum requirement is 100 PV. By then you already have bunch of people in your downline and your order is easily paid for.

I will help you every step of the way, help you with classes, share all I know. And because it’s so easy, our members can do exactly the same. Remember, it’s not only whom you know, but whom your friends know!

Here you can see a chart of Young Living income per month

Yes, you see right. Per month! You can easily do this from the comfort of your home, from your couch, while your kids sleep. That’s exactly how I do it 90% of the time. I hold few classes a month, but that’s because I love it and I love connecting with people face to face.

How will I organize classes?

Once again, I will help you with easy instructions, scripts, visuals. Luckily, in this world it’s easy to connect with me over video chat and discuss what you need to know first. I also have an entire manual for you, that is easy to follow. You will be surprised. It’s a no brainer.

And if you do not want to hold classes, you don’t have to. You just share on Social media. I didn’t have any class for the first 6-8 months. I simply posted on my Facebook what I’m using and why and people started connecting and asking why and how can I get this! Yes, if you have amazing products, it’s super easy.

There are many perks of doing Young Living as a business besides a paycheck. Paid for retreats and trips around the world to celebrate you and your work is just one of them. I was blessed to be on one like that this February in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. Trip for two paid by Young Living! I kid you not.

But it’s not just the paycheck and the great awards. It’s the meaningful work, knowing you’re helping others live healthier life and earn paycheck.

Because good leader doesn’t create followers, good leader creates more leaders!

So let me be your leader and let me help you to be a leader!

Essential oils for pets

Hello guys! So what furry friend do you have at home?

I grew up with golden sausage dog. Loved her so much. She had to live at my grandparents farm, cause my parents didn’t allow pets in the house.

We did sneak in a hamster now and then, but all our cats and our dog stayed at the farm. I’m sure it was more fun for them too, as it was huge house with plenty of animals.

Now we have little birdie, Blue (the birdie holding it is David). When we brought Blue Home year ago, I immediately went on google and start reading up about essential oils and bird. Why?

Because I know how amazing and powerful our oil are, and I know we have to be careful and responsible when using them in our homes. Because I am the adult and I am responsible for all the living beings in our home and I want the best for them.

CATS

Cats are different. They are special. And because they are special, they process oils differently.

Well, it’s actually because they are mainly carnivores, which means they don’t know how to process plants. And essential oils are plants. Their liver enzymes don’t metabolize the same way humans do. Or dogs.

Oils high in eugenol or phenol compounds can stress their liver. This is highly problematic and can even be fatal with the use of poor quality, non-therapeutic grade (medical grade) oils. YES, here I go again. Quality matters!!! Do not buy essential oils off Amazon or EBay, you have no idea what’s inside! And you cannot trust them. I personally only trust Young Living Essential oils. Not only I trust them, I love them. And as the only company in the world, they offer Seed to Seal Guarantee. Means they guarantee you that their oils are pure, therapeutic and food grade oils. They are the best!!!

Oils that are high in eugenols and phenols are often referred to as “hot” oils. These are oils that would likely cause irritation if they came in contact with your face, or other sensitive areas of your body. Common oils to use caution with are Basil, Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Eucalyptus, Lemongrass, Mountain Savory, Oregano, Black Pepper, Peppermint, Thyme, and Wintergreen. We also need to be careful with blends containing these “hot” oils. Not that you cannot use them. You have to be careful and use common sense when using them.

Other oils you should use with caution around cats are Citrus oils and Tea Tree. So Bergamot, Grapefruit, Lemon, Lime, Tangerine, Orange.

Another important aspect of using essential oils for cats (and other animals) is to support their systems nutritionally. Giving NingXia Red to animals while they are on oils can supply antioxidants and nutrients vital to liver function. NingXia Red can help any health condition by supporting the body. Your fur baby doesn’t need 30 ml dose like you. Just few drops is enough for them and they will absolutely love it!

So what are the basic rules when using EO around cats??

1. Go slow. When diffusing in your home and you have a cat, dilute your oil properly. 1 drop is enough for 25 ml of water.

2. Make sure the cat has the option to leave the room if she doesn’t like the oil. Do not diffuse in a closed room!

3. Do not pet your cat after you put EO on your hands. Do not forget that cats lick their fur. Wash your hands first.

4. Keep your oils where your cat cannot get to them

5. Do not use those oils that are not safe for cats to clean anything that the cat can lick.

6. Use higher dilution when diffusing than you normally would.

7. Buy proper cat friendly shampoo. I will talk about good animal line of products in a separate post.

Here are the top 5 essential oils for cats that are very safe for cat use. There is many more and I will post image for that too.

Cedarwood Essential Oil

Frankincense Essential Oil

Geranium Essential Oil

Helichrysum Essential Oil

Lavender Essential Oil

If you cat is stressed, use either Cedarwood and Lavender oil or a combination of the two. You could also make a spray mist with water and gently spray around your cat.

If your cat is scared to go to Vet, use Valor for courage and Peace & Calming blend for calming and fear! And don’t forget the Animal Scents Shampoo!

Young living has The Animal Collection Kit. Easy and has oils for emotional and physical wellbeing.

DOGS

Essential oils can offer a multitude of benefits for humans, but can they help our pets – and especially man’s best friend – too?

Dogs have highly developed sense of smell. Scientists say it’s anywhere from 10,000 to 100,000 times as acute. Dogs can detect some odors in parts per trillion, which means while we can usually detect if our morning coffee has had a teaspoon of sugar added to it, a dog could detect a teaspoon of sugar in a million gallons of water, or two Olympic-sized pools worth. Our pets use their sense of smell to gain all sorts of complex information from the environment and that information is used to calculate and predict what states of energy and response they should adopt.

Aromatherapy is wonderful to use on animals but we have to know how to use the oils properly so our pets don’t get harmed. Essential oils are ingested, absorbed by skin or by inhalation and they enter the bloodstream very quickly. Even small amounts have very powerful effects. For example tiny amounts of Lavender can be used to calm your pet and make it sleepy, if you need to travel with your pet etc.

So the first rule again is quality. Choose only therapeutic grade oils. Those of you who know me, you know that I only recommend Young Living Essential oils (my YL number is 3364058). Why? Simply because they are best oils in the world and as the only company offer Seed to Seal Guarantee. Pm me if you want to learn more about this.

So now that you have the best oils in the world – Young Living oils, it’s important to know that some oils are not safe to use around your dog.

Which are the oils not good for your dog?

Tea Tree, Oregano, Cinnamon Bark, Clove, Wintergreen, Pine and Ylang Ylang.

Symptoms of essential oil poisoning for dogs have included:

Muscle tremors

Weakness

Difficulty in walking

Low body temperature

Excessive salivation

Vomiting

Excessive pawing at mouth or face

Drooling

Which oils are safe to use?

Cedarwood – great oil to be used as pest repellent. It also aids in respiratory issues and helps with stiffness that comes with age. It also helps with fur and has overall calming effects. Great for dogs with anxiety or separation issues.

Lavender oil – very calming oil, great to use for transportation times, it creates peace and harmony. So if your dog hates trip to vet, use Lavender to calm him down.

Lemongrass – great as a insect repellent. Add 2-3 drops to a sprayer bottle, fill up with water and spray your dogs fur with it. Then massage it in. It will keep ticks away and also improve your dogs skin.

Citronella- another great oil for insect repellent. You can use it together with Lemongrass and add it to the sprayer bottle.

Frankincense- it can really help with your dogs anxiety and many other issues and aid in stronger immunity.

Spearmint – great oil if your dog is overweight or has digestive issues.

Thyme – must have for all dog owners. It helps relieving pain and excellent for skin issues

Chamomile – very gentle and safe to use. Great for calming properties and skin irritations.

Purification – great blend for to keep bugs away! Spray on your dogs skin (few drops in bottle of water).

There is more, such as Peace&Calming, DiGize, Thieves, Panaways, Valor, Peppermint, Lemon, RC and Melrose

Young Living also has entire Animal Line.

If you have any questions and want to buy any of these oils and get them for wholesale price, send me a message.

Before applying any oil on your dog, test it first. Simply hold the bottle in your hand and come close to your dog. Don’t let him smell it just yet. The scent will travel to the dog and you will see if he is ok with it or not. If he is ok, let him smell it. If your dog is ok with that smell, you can start diffusing it in the room. Again, make sure your dog can freely leave the room at any point.

If your dog shows no signs of irritation and you want to use that oil topically, you can start by diluting 1 drop of EO in 50 drops of carrier oil at first.

Make sure your dog has plenty of water to drink.

Paws are also great place to topically apply essential oils on. You can gently massage it in. Your dog will surely enjoy the little massage.

BIRDS

We have cute little bird and love him to bits. I also love my oils. So when we brought Blue home, I checked what I have to avoid and what guidelines to follow.

Use essential oils for birds so that you can boost their immunity, improve their health and keep them happy. Essential oils can also be used for cage cleaning, air freshening and more.

Here are the Top 10 oils to use

1. Cedarwood

2. Roman Chamomile

3. Frankincense

4. Eucalyptus

5. Clary Sage

6. Lavender

7. Oregano

8. Lemon

9. Grapefruit

10. Geranium

Never use Tea Tree around your bird.

Diffusing essential oils can help calm your birds, reduce anxiety, decrease stress levels and help a new bird get used to the new environment. Diffusion can also help destroy harmful bacteria, fungi and mold from lurking in the air.

Never diffuse more than 3 – 4 drops of essential oil at a time. Never diffuse essential oils in a closed, non aerated room. Always diffuse oils in large, well-aerated room with windows and ventilators. Do not diffuse essential oils for more than 1 hour at a time.

If you want to use EO internally for your bird, never mix it with water. Instead, just swirl toothpick in the oil and then in the food.

For birds, essential oils can only be applied on the feet, where there are no feathers. Essential oils, being so potent, have to be diluted before being applied on to birds’ feet. To dilute, mix 1 drop of essential oil in 1 teaspoon of fractionated coconut oil or olive oil. When you apply diluted essential oils to feathers it is dangerous because it can make the feathers oily, heavy and cause your bird distress. You can use Cedarwood, Lavender, Roman Chamomile or Frankincense when you need to calm your bird, for example when you need to groom your bird. Lavender can be also used if your bird has some wound.

You can also create a listing spray to freshen up the room. It is much better than using toxic store bought air fresheners. Spray around the room but avoid coming close to your bird and especially avoid your birds eyes.

You can also use Lavender to help clean your birds cage. Create your own cage Cleaner – Mix white vinegar, Castile soap, water and few drops of Lavender and pour it into sprayer bottle and use that to clean the cage.

Young Living has entire line of Animal Products. They are excellent and deserve their own post. So follow my blog to read more about it
