Hectic Life? There's an oil for that! I’m Juliana – a born and raised South Carolinian living and doing life in the Bluegrass state! I’m the author of the Diffused Adventures blog, fur-mom to Alexis and Buddy, wife to Jacob, and full time healthcare administrator. My life is nothing short of hectic and busy. However, Young Living Essential Oils keep up going on a daily basis. There’s an oil for everyone in the family – including your furry family members! (Shh….don’t tell my two that they aren’t human!) No matter what life throws in our way, I know that Young Living provides our family with essential oils that support our overall wellness and keep us looking and feeling beautiful and refreshed (I’m looking at you Savvy Minerals!).

What’s In My Diffuser

Juliana Hawkins

Every night, I fill my diffuser full of the recommended amount of water and fill it with oils to support a restful evening and provide respiratory support.

Tonight, my diffuser is filled with the following:

  • Vetiver: has an earthy and grounding aroma. This can be diffused to promote a calming and relaxing atmosphere. Vetiver can also be applied topically to promote calm and relaxation.
  • Eucalyptus Radiata: has a sweet and fruity aroma. This can be used in massage after activity. When diffused it helps to create a stimulating and rejuvenating environment. Eucalyptus Radiata can also be added to your favorite home cleansing product and is an ingredient in Young Living’s RC, Breathe Again, Thieves and Inner Defense.
  • Citrus Fresh: has a clean, fresh scent when diffused. Can be worn as a perfume for a refreshing and inspiring aroma throughout the day. Can be applied topically to beautify the skin and maintain the appearance of healthy, toned skin.
  • Release: Has a rich, invigorating aroma. When diffused, it helps to create a relaxing and calm environment. Can be applied topically to promote an uplifting and calming aroma throughout the day.

On nights when I am not super contentious about preparing and turning on the diffuser, I can tell a drastic difference in how relaxed and prepared and ready for bed that I feel. I love that the aroma of this blend of oils is perfect to relax my continuously spinning mind and promote a calming and relaxing atmosphere in which to sleep.

So, what’s in your diffuser tonight?

Seed to Seal, Why I YL

Why I Chose Young Living

Juliana Hawkins

Since I became an Independent Young Living Distributor, the popularity of essential oils has grown significantly. One of the most common questions that I get is why I chose Young Living and not another essential oil company. There are many reasons why people decide to go with one company or another, but where Young Living won out was their Seed to Seal Promise.

As someone with a background in the healthcare industry, the company’s quality standards were one of the most important factors to me when deciding which essential oil company to use. Young Living’s Seed to Seal promise is based on 3 pillars: Sourcing, Science, and Standards.

One of the things I love about Young Living is the fact that they do not compromise the natural integrity of the essential oil by adding synthetic ingredients, contaminants, or other fillers in their production practices. In addition, all essential oils go through extensive and their oils only come from Young Living Corporate Farms, carefully selected partner farms, and Seed to Seal certified suppliers.

While Young Living Essential Oils are sometimes higher priced than their competitors, I do not mind paying slightly extra to know that I am getting high quality essential oils. Young Living utilizes a low-pressure and low-steam single distillation process in order to harvest the best essential oil from the plant and avoid damaging the oil by “bruising” the plant in multiple distillation processes. Essential oils can then go through as many as five (5) analyses before they are released for distribution.

This commitment to quality and purity of essential oils was what sold me on Young Living Essential Oils. No other company was able to provide me with the science to back up their process and support their claims that the essential oils were not compromised in any way. In the almost three (3) years that I have been an Independent Distributor with Young Living Essential Oils, I have never doubted that Young Living was the best choice for me and my family.
