Welcome!
I am so excited that you have stopped by to learn more about the healing properties of essential oils!
We can finally take our health into our own hands. How is this possible? By replacing various items in our medicine cabinets with pure, natural alternatives like essential oils. When you use essential oils instead of Tylenol, Advil, etc., you are decreasing the buildup of chemicals and toxins in your organs.
The healing properties of essential oils are vast, and still not completely known. Scientists are still discovering the myriad of benefits of each essential oil. It is my job to educate you on how to incorporate these natural solutions into your own life.
Most, if not a majority of, people are not aware of the health benefits of essential oils. That is why I am thrilled to teach you about these benefits via online training. Or, in the alternative, if you are local to Northern Illinois (or the northern border of South Carolina/Georgia), we can work in person.
Aromatherapy has been a reliable and natural source of treatment for various ailments for thousands of years. Plants were given to us by God to use as medicine. Modern medicine only began after the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century.
What are essential oils?
Plants, seeds and flowers all contain volatile aromatic compounds. These compounds contribute to the aroma, protection and pollination for plants. These compounds also have incredible emotional and physical therapeutic benefits, depending upon the quality of the plant harvested. To date, over 3,000 varieties of volatile aromatic compounds have been studied, unlocking new possibilities for usage.
Essential oils are the concentrated aromatic compounds distilled or extracted from flowers, trees, grasses, leaves and roots. They contain properties to protect and maintain the plant, and we can use them to help support, protect and maintain our bodies.
PURITY MATTERS!
Have you ever walked down the aisle of your local drugstore and seen essential oils on a shelf? Most of us have. Unfortunately, based on research, it appears that approximately 80% of essential oils on the market today are adulterated. It is very important that you know where your oils originated from.
My recommendation: purchase oils straight from the farmer, not a broker or distributor (they often dilute and/or add synthetics or cheaper oils to the bottles).
If you can't easily get a chemical analysis of your essential oil to show the purity – DON’T BUY IT! Companies who use third-party testers are typically superior to those who don’t. They make sure that label on the outside of the bottle matches exactly the contents within. 100% pure essential oil – no fillers or contaminants.
How do you know that essential oils actually work?
Have you ever smelled fresh lavender flowers and felt relaxed? Or smelled lemon oil on your hands after squeezing the rind and felt refreshed? Well then, you’ve experienced two basic therapeutic benefits of essential oils!
The answer to many of your health problems can be found in nature, not just the drugstore. Those in the essential oils community have personally seen tens of thousands, if not millions, of lives changed by the healing power of essential oils. Now, it is my privilege to help you make them part of your daily life!
Remember: If you do not make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness.
If you think that essential oils are just used for their wonderful scents, it is important to realize the great therapeutic properties of essential oils.

Essential oils can help support wellness by supporting your immune system and so much more. Essential oils can support you in building a healthier you. No matter what your health needs are, having natural solutions can keep you on the path to meeting your health goals.
What does a healthy lifestyle look like to you? What health goals do you have that can be supported with essential oils and natural products?
Essential oils are wonderful to use aromatically for their beautiful scents, ability to clean the air, to enhance meditative practices, to improve mood and so much more.
Essential oils are commonly used topically to support pain, digestive issues, emotional distress, and to support immune function.
