Starting to use Essential Oils can seem overwhelming, so in this post, I’m going to break down it all down into SIMPLE STEPS: what essential oils are, why you should order them from Young Living, and understanding how and what to order to get the BEST VALUE and the BEST OILS for you! So let’s get started with the best way to start using essential oils!
Essential Oils can benefit and support all aspects of health and wellness. They can be used for cleaning, sleep, stress relief, acne, headaches, allergies and so much more. For more information on how we use essential oils in our own home check out The Top 5 ways we use Essential Oils! We’ve replaced so many toxic products in our home and oils are now an integral part of our daily life!
So how can oils work for you too?! Let’s dive in!!
WHAT ARE ESSENTIAL OILS?
An essential oil is simply the oil of the plant from which it was extracted, for example: oil of clove.
WHY CHOOSE YOUNG LIVING?
There are endless testimonials and first-hand accounts of the benefits of incorporating essential oils into your cooking, cleaning, self-care, purification, mental health routines etc… However, essential oils are not all created equal.
Essential oils sold online or in-store are sometimes being diluted or completely manufactured using synthetic chemicals! Yes, even the ones at your local health food store.
I’d invite you to watch the video at https://www.youngliving.com/en_ca/discover/seed-to-seal and to read more about Young Living’s “Seed to Seal” promise. Young Living has been producing the highest quality, ethically & sustainably sourced, and environmentally responsible oils since 1994. The company is established in 150 countries.
If you’d like to do some research of your own on essential oils here are a few good places to start:
THE PREMIUM STARTER KIT
Not only does Young Living offer the highest quality oils available on the market, but they offer starter kits that are affordable and easy to use.
My recommendation is to start with a Young Living Premium Starter Kit, which comes with a diffuser of your choice, a selection of oils and lots of samples to try. There are also starter kits which include Thieves cleaning supplies or CBD products!

NOTES ON ESSENTIAL REWARDS:
ESSENTIAL REWARDS is a monthly ordering loyalty program that offers free gifts and points back to use like cash on qualified purchases. With up to 25% back on your orders, those points add up quickly!! In order to be eligible, you only have to spend $50 a month!
Because Young Living offers SO much more than just essential oils, it’s really easy to spend that $50, but without adding to your monthly budget!! You can actually save money by purchasing high quality, everyday household items such as cleaning supplies, personal care products, supplements and more through the Essential Rewards program. You can buy non-toxic products for your home with the money you would have spent at the store on those items anyway!
If you still aren’t quite ready to say yes to Essential Rewards that’s ok! You can test your starter kit out and sign up anytime! There’s no pressure and no hidden gotchas. It’s totally up to you! And if you do sign up you can cancel at any time!
One thing to keep in mind is that I always give a bonus gift to those who personally enroll with me and sign up for ER!! This month it’s a FREE DIFFUSER!! And I’ll tell you a little secret… I actually take the bonus that I get for signing you up and give it right back to you in the form of a welcome package with laminated cards explaining your new oils and how to use them as well as a few other goodies to get you started!

FAQs
Does Being a “Distributor” mean I have to sell something?
No. There is no requirement to sell anything. If you are interested in Young Living as a business opportunity you can read more HERE. However, it is completely optional.
Can I just buy a few oils instead of the starter kit?
To become a wholesale member you must buy one of the starter kit options. You can create a retail customer account to buy individual oils, but you will be paying 24% more than wholesale prices.
Does Young Living only sell essential oils?
No! Young Living has entire product lines for health & fitness, personal care, cleaning, babies and more!
A few of my favourite products right now are Seedlings Baby Wipes, Satin Facial Scrub Mint, Thieves household cleaner and the Lavender Lamb Stuffie!
What is the Essential Rewards program and how does it work?
Essential Rewards is a flexible, risk-free loyalty program. You order 50PV (PV = points value system where usually $1= 1PV) worth of product once a month and you receive benefits such as:
- ER points to use like cash
- Loyalty Gifts each quarter for the first year
- Exclusive ER bonus products with qualifying purchases
- Preferred shipping rates & and easy monthly shipments
Because I am striving to eliminate harmful chemicals and toxins from our home, it’s so easy to spend at least $50/month with Young Living just buying my regular household items like cleaners, toothpaste, makeup, supplements, kids products etc… I would spend this money at the grocery store anyway, but now I spend it at Young Living and receive products that are actually good for my family! Signing up has truly been the best way to start using essential oils!
