What Are Essential Oils?

What Are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are organic compounds; they are the aromatic substances derived from a plant.  The oils may come from any part of a plant, including the stem, leaf, bark or root. Plants have long been used to promote health and wellness, even since the beginning of time! Ancient Egyptians as well as Biblical folks relied heavily on plants and oils for first aid, medicine, and beauty.
Certified Therapeutic Grade Oils, like you get from Young Living, are absorbed quickly through the skin.  They can diffuse easily across cell membranes to make positive changes on a cellular level.  When inhaled, they affect the brain via the olfactory nerve, which in turn affects the limbic system.  This is the area of the brain that influences emotion. Using essential oils consistently can greatly impact your health and wellness!
