Fall & Spring Detoxing with Essential Oils

Here is a great detox recipe to drink in the Fall / Winter Season....

Many of us have weight management goals, and I have something to help with those goals. With the holidays right around the corner this might be very helpful in the aftermath.  Now, I am a big advocate of a healthy diet and exercise, but the closer someone gets to their goal it seems the harder it is to reach. Enter the "Ultimate Detox Drink!" 

Niccole posted.... " I did some research on unsweetened (important detail) cranberry juice, and citrus essential oils for my weight management goals and I am so very glad I did. I drink this concoction first thing in the morning, mid-day, and then again in the evening. It is incredibly refreshing, helps me drink plenty of water, and has many health benefits. 10 days ago I started this combo, and let me just say that I'm feeling better and better about heading to the beach in 10 days!"

Spring cleaning is an annual ritual to clear out all of the dust, cobwebs, and clutter that have accumulated in your home over the winter. Our bodies also deserve a “spring cleaning” to flush out toxins that have accumulated over time. Adding a detoxifying cleanse to your annual routine can help increase your energy flow and help with your overall well-being.
Breathing, Sweating, and Eliminating
The simplest ways for your body to naturally eliminate toxins are through breathing, sweating, and eliminating through your gastrointestinal system. There are a wide variety of methods for cleansing your body, along with many different levels of intensity. However, the simplest and single most important step you can take to help your body flush out toxins is to drink more water. Adding more movement to your daily routine can also help increase your circulation and release endorphins, which act as positive mood boosters.
Several techniques to help your body eliminate toxins include:
  • Alternating between hot and cold water in the shower to help promote blood circulation to the skin
  • Sitting in a sauna or hot tub to promote toxin elimination through sweating
  • Getting a massage incorporating Young Living’s Ortho Sport®, Ortho Ease®, Relaxation™, orSensation™ massage oils to help break up lactic acid buildup in the muscles
Young Living’s Juva products also provide a natural way to assist the body’s natural cleansing functions:
  • JuvaCleanse® and JuvaFlex® essential oil blends help support the body’s digestive system.
  • JuvaPower® and JuvaSpice® can be sprinkled on foods to add extra fiber and nutrients to your digestive system.
  • JuvaTone® tablets provide vital nutrients to support a healthy digestive system.
Cleanses
Here are some examples of different types of internal cleanses. Be sure to consult with your health professional before starting a cleansing regimen.
The Master Cleanse
This is a simple and fairly easy liquid cleanse that you can do for up to 7­–10 days:
  • ½ fresh squeezed lemon
  • 8 oz. of distilled water
  • 1–2 tablespoons of grade B maple syrup or Young Living Blue Agave
  • A pinch of cayenne pepper
Mix and drink 6–12 glasses daily.

Vital Life Juice Recipe
Young Living Founder and CEO D. Gary Young created this recipe over 25 years ago to provide concentrated nutrients.
  • 3 ounces freshly sliced beet
  • 1 oz. freshly sliced carrot
  • 1 oz. freshly sliced celery
  • 1/3 freshly sliced white radish
  • 1 pinch of ginger
  • 1/3 potato (optional)
Puree all ingredients in a blender and drink ¼–½ cup every 2–3 hours.

Grapefruit Juice Recipe
This refreshing drink is simple to make and easy to drink throughout the day.
Mix ingredients together in a pitcher and store in the refrigerator.
Please share your experience incorporating Young Living essential oils when you’ve been doing a detoxing cleanse.

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own." 1 Cor. 6:19 Our Personal Experiences with Essential Oils  When I first used essential oils, I tried several different brands that were available from my local health food stores, grocery stores, amazon etc.  It always seemed that after I tried a few drops for a recipe I would get a headache so I stopped using it and never finished the bottle. One year after cleaning out my bathroom cabinet I found three bottles of practically unused essential oils!   I actually got no benefit from them whatsoever. Literally.  I might as well have just flushed the money I spent on them!  I was later introduced to Melaleuca essential oil through another multi-level marketing company that used it as the primary ingredient in all their products. This seemed to have worked for a while until I learned their oil was adulterated so I eventually gave

   Host a Budget-Friendly Oils class ? I have had many people ask me how I decided what oils to order first after the Premium Starter Kit. I had a very long wish list. But what did I order?  The cheapest oils!  That way I could get more products into my house for a lot fewer dollars. The price of the oils has nothing to do with their effectiveness. It is all about *how* they are to grown, harvested, distilled, cold-pressed etc. For that reason, for example, most of the citrus oils are inexpensive. But they are still very powerful. Here is a list of budget-friendly oils (under $20 a bottle). As you can see, there are a LOT of options. I encourage you to become familiar with these oils. Check your reference book(s) and/or Young Living App.  Look these up.  See what they do.  You can bring a whole lot of wellness support into your home without breaking your budget! I leave you with a challenge: take this information and become empowered!  Start making small cha
