Seed to Seal Promise

Did you know that Young Living has a Seed to Seal guarantee?  It is their promise to provide you with exceptional quality. 
In previous posts we have discussed how important it is to use only 100% Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils.  I have learned that according to the FDA, an essential oil company can label an oil '100% Pure' as long as the bottle contains 3% of the actual oil and can also omit the other ingredients in that bottle from the label.  So, as you can see, it is VERY important that you completely trust your essential oil company.  That is why I only use Young Living Essential Oils


Young Living Guarantees:
  • No Herbicides
  • No Pesticides
  • No Fillers
  • No Un-listed Ingredients
  • 100% Purity
  • Highest Quality
  • Many of their oils are Certified Kosher!
The Seed to Seal guarantee is a 5 step process: Seed, Cultivate, Distill, Test and Seal.  You can read, watch and explore more at www.seedtoseal.com
Here are the videos for each step.

Vapor Rub with Essential Oils


When the weather changes and the coughs and sniffles try to attack, sometimes you just need a soothing vapor rub. 

Anytime I think of vapor rub it takes me back to my childhood when my grandmother, Mamaw, would lather all of us grand-kids up at even the first sign of a tickly throat.  It was both soothing and irritating.  Soothing because Mamaw was making such a fuss over us.  Irritating because we didn't even have to be the one that coughed to get slathered with the stuff.  I can still smell the eucalyptus and feel its thick tingle on my chest. 
Whether for yourself or your kiddos, this easy, all natural and non-toxic recipe is just the soothing recipe you were looking for.  So ditch the over-the-counter rubs, grab your Young Living Essential Oils, and feel good about what you put on your body even if you are feeling a little down under.



Vapor Rub

5 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Coconut Oil (natural anti-viral)
1 Tablespoon Evening Primrose Oil
(or sweet almond, olive, coconut...)
2 Tablespoons Beeswax
8 - 10 drops Melaluca Alternifolia Essential Oil (Tea Tree)
15 - 20 drops any combination of RC, Eucalyptus Radaita, Eucalyptus Golubus, Eucalyptus Blue or Breathe Again Essential Oils
(I like Eucalyptus Radaita, Lemon and Lavender.  Another great combination is Cypress with Peace and Calming and one of the Eucalyptus oils.)


Directions


In a double boiler, melt the coconut oil and evening primrose oil.  Add the beeswax, chopped up (or in granules) and stir until melted.  Add the essential oils and stir to combine.  Pour into a 4-oz. glass jar and allow to cool.
I store mine room temperature, but can be stored in the fridge, because I want it soft enough to spread on children's feet.  Put the salve on their feet at night, cover with socks, and hopefully sleep through the night!

(Note: These are not Young Living recipes.  These are recipes I have found and tweaked for my own personal use.)


Recommended Oils:
Melaluca Alternifolia (Tea Tree)
Eucalyptus Radaita
Eucalyptus Golubus
Eucalyptus Blue
RC
Breathe Again
Thieves
Rosemary (avoid when pregnant or on kids under age 5)
Peppermint (avoid on kids under age 5)
Lavender
Peace & Calming
Cypress
Valor
