Summer Vacation and Oils
Today was exciting!  I came home to a package from Young Living.  The end of last month I had suddenly realized that I was on my last bottle of NingXia Red.  So I ordered a NingXia Red Starter Kit on Quick Order.  It arrived today!


On to the topic of this post:  Summer Vacation.  Every year, in the summer, we go on vacation.  Many years we take a road trip.  The photo on this post is from a couple of years ago in New Brunswick.

 Ever since I started using oils, they became a new addition to my packing list.  And every trip I get to figure out which ones of my collection are the most needed and most versatile and thus indispensable.

I start by packing a diffuser.  We have a travel trailer and generally camp where we have electric.  Next I add a Desk Reference Resource Book so I can look up any topic to see what oils are recommended.  I can also simply sit around our campfire and read about these fabulous oils.  Then the tough part--the oils.  I usually start with the basics.  Peppermint, Lemon, Lavender, Digize, RC, Stress Away, Frankincense, Panaway, Purification.  I move on to those (if I haven't gotten them already) that are in the Golden Touch Kit.  This year I added the oils from The Raindrop Kit.  Then any other favorites such as Helichrysum, Citronella, and Northern Lights Black Spruce.  By now my case is getting rather full!  (I bought a case that holds 30 oils.  This year I'm taking 2!)

Oh yes, I must also remember supplements!  I pack the NingXia Red packets, NingXia Nitro, Life 9.  Randy takes care of the supplements that he takes himself.  I contemplate whether to take Mark's current list or to just do the NingXia Red and Life 9  and skip the rest (Mineral Essence, Sulferzyme, Mindwise, sometimes K&B).  I will definitely pack the ImmuPro and MightyVites.

Finally, I consider any other products--Thieves Laundry Soap, Lavender Mint Shampoo & Conditioner.  A bar of soap.  I google for recipes on the internet for any DIY products I want to take and make them as well.

What Young Living products do you take on vacation?!

Enjoy your day!

Meet Karen Sauder

 
Welcome!  My husband and I are currently the parents of 7 children.  We live on a few acres in the country.  My husband is a truck driver who drives regionally.

I took the (skeptical) plunge into essential oils in December 2014 and haven't looked back.  While we started with using the essential oils, over the past years we have embraced the Young Living lifestyle.  We have switched to their supplements.  We have ditched the cleaning products that we used to buy at the store and buy their toxin free cleaners instead.  We use their laundry soap.  So many great products!

When I began this journey, I had no intention of making a business out of it.  One of the things I love about Young Living is that there is no obligation to sell anything, ever!  However, I did unintentionally end up with a team under me of others that I shared the oils with.  And they shared oils with others.  So here I am...taking the plunge into the business side.  I have no desire to "sell" anything.  But if you're here and interested in the Young Living lifestyle, I'm happy to share it with you.  And this site makes it easy for you to learn more about Young Living and take the plunge with me.
