I said in my last post how FRUSTRATING it’s been – for SO long – to not be able to talk about all the therapeutic, health-giving properties of Young Living’s oils. At last, with the release of their Wellness Essential Oils collection I can spill the beans!
This is Part II (you can find my first post about these amazing Wellness oils here) with another seven super essential oils for you and your family to enjoy and benefit from.
The same Young Living oils!
Young Living’s Wellness Essential Oils collection look a little different – they come with a white label and the wellness claims I’m going to share with you are approved by the TGA (Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration), but the oils inside the bottles are the very same pure, powerful ones that Young Living have been selling all along.
So, let me talk about these seven new Wellness essential oils and EXACTLY what they can do for you!
Note – legally I have to include the dosage form and the active ingredients for each one, in case you’re wondering. Of course, in the case of Young Living’s single oils – the only active ingredient they have is 100% PURE essential oil – ethically and sustainably sourced with love, devotion and commitment!
