November 2020 Excitement

It's November...2020 is winding to it's inevitable end.  Around here the trees are still lovely, but fading.  A storm came through this week and brought down many colorful leaves.

November is always an exciting time with Young Living.  Every year I look forward to the Black Friday and Cyber Monday specials.  If you are an Essential Rewards member, you may want to make sure your order processes earlier this month so that it's not caught up in the holiday shipping.  Before we get to the Thanksgiving specials, check out the Holiday Gift Catalog online.  So many of us wanted to buy from it that we crashed their system.  It will be relaunched on November 9.  This extra time gives us time to consider what we want to purchase rather than rushing to quickly order before items are sold out.

And now, November Promos.  Remember, promos can be received twice--once with an essential rewards order and once with a regular "shop" order.


100 pv - Free Shipping!
190 pv - Free Shipping + 5ml Gratitude (a lovely blend to diffuse during this Thanksgiving month.) Essential Rewards Bonus - 15 ml Abundance.
250 pv - Above + YL Diffuser Ornament.  Add a drop of your favorite oil to the wood when you display it for a lovely scent.
300 pv - Above + 15ml Peace & Calming - I started buying Young Living years ago just for this oil.  I love to diffuse this in my home.

Happy Thanksgiving!

October 2020

Fall is in the air around here.  The leaves are starting to change colors.  The air is getting cooler after a few humid days.  This year we're missing the typical fall fairs and the yummy foods associated with them.  Perhaps I should try making some caramel apples or funnel cakes at home?!  

Check out the Promos for October!


*Free Shipping - with any ER or Shop order of 100 pv.
*Aromaease - I diffuse this or apply topically** for stomach discomfort/uneasiness.
*Ravintsara - Diffuse or apply topically**.  I use this similarly to RC or Raven.
*Inner Defense - We keep this supplement on hand.  My husband uses it regularly.
*Spiced Turmeric Tea - I have yet to try this tea...but I'm looking forward to it!
*Mug - Hand made in Vietnam.  Available while supplies last.  If they run out, 30 pv will be substituted.
**When applying topically, dilute as directed.

Blessings!

September 2020

The nights are getting longer and occasional cool days are slipping into the week here in the mid-Atlantic.  Our kids are settling back into school routines.

September Promos:

1)  Free Shipping - You can now get free "Economy" shipping on any order over 100pv.  Make sure to check your shipping choices if you have an ER Monthly Order over 100 pv to choose free economy, standard ($9.99) or expedited ($19.99).

2)  Copaiba -  We generally use this oil topically, applied where needed.

3)  Purification (ER Only) - I love to diffuse this in my boys' bathroom or put it on a cotton ball in the closet where we keep our shoes.

4)  Mini Young Living Cooler

5)  M-Grain - I apply this topically as needed.

6)  Thieves Mints - I like to keep these in my purse.

Enjoy the beginning of autumn!

August 2020

Hello!  And Welcome to August!  In some ways it feels as if this year is much longer than others, and yet...here it is, August already.

This month, Young Living's Promos focus on cooking with Vitality oils.

Check them out!


I can't tell you much about these oils as I haven't used vitality oils in cooking.  I do use the citrus oils in my water as I am not a fan of plain water.  The Orange Vitality is probably the only one of these I've actually used!  So...I get to try some new things this month too.

Have you ever served food on a charcuterie board?  I have not done that either!  I looked it up and said that they are frequently used to serve meats and items to accompany the meats.  From magazines and such, it seems that there is a trend right now to use these for things other than meats like the gorgeous pancake version at our daughter-in-law's bridal shower.

The one Promo item that I would use...the apron.  I do wear them from time to time.  And my youngest would love to wear a matching one like Mom.

Enjoy your August!  The hot days, the summer wrap up before school begins, the gradually longer nights leading to cooler mornings...

Blessings!

July 2020

July 2020
The weather is hot and muggy here in the mid-atlantic region of the US.  Our garden is growing, as are the weeds and the boys.  We are enjoying time outside swimming and time indoors in the A/C.

Check out the Young Living Promos for July!

Envision:  I like to diffuse this blend.
Common Sense:  I apply a drop of this blend to the back of my neck or diffuse it at times when I want to focus.
KidScents Geneyus:  I like to put a roller ball on the top of this one and roll it on the back of the neck for focus.
Egyptian Gold:  I've heard this is a great oil blend to diffuse or apply topically, but I haven't personally tried it yet.  I look forward to expanding my collection of oils though, and trying new ones.
Valor:  One of our all time favorites.  I like to rub a drop or two on my shoulders when I've overused them.  I also apply a drop to my wrists as part of "The Great Day" protocol.

Reminder:  US prices are scheduled to increase 4% as of September 2020.

Have a wonderful summer!

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.
