SUGGESTED USES APPLY ONLY TO THE USE OF THERAPEUTIC GRADE, YOUNG
LIVING ESSENTIAL OILS.
The Essential 7 Kit was created by Young Living Essential Oils (YLEO) so that
anyone could immediately use and appreciate the benefits of therapeutic-
grade essential oils. The Kit contains three single oils: Lavender (Lavandula
angustifolia), Lemon (Citrus limon) and Peppermint (Mentha piperita), and
four oils blends: Joy, PanAway, Peace & Calming and Purification.
All single oils may be used as dietary supplements.
All of the oils may be diffused. Essential Process offers a diffuser that is
designed to disperse the oils in a micro-fiber vapor. This allows the oils to
stay suspended in the air to reduce bacteria, fungi and mold. It also freshens
the air with natural fragrances, eliminating the need for synthetic, harmful air
fresheners. The diffuser disperses the oils without heat, which could render
the essential oils less effective.
All of the oils can be applied to the Vita Flex points on the feet, added to bath
water mixed with YLEO’s Bath Gel Base, applied topically or used with body
and foot massage.
LAVENDER – (Lavandula angustifolia) is the most versatile of all essential
oils. Therapeutic-grade lavender has been highly regarded for the skin.
Lavender has been clinically evaluated for its relaxing effects. It may be used
to cleanse cuts, bruises and skin irritations. The fragrance is calming,
relaxing and balancing – physically and emotionally. THIS PLANT IS GROWN
AND DISTILLED AT THE YOUNG LIVING FARMS.
