Oh my word…I can’t believe I haven’t written in here since June!! I considered abandoning this space completely but I just couldn’t bring myself to – it holds such a special piece of my heart that I am home again to this small corner!
But I wanted to share with you a big piece of our family story that has evolved in the last few months…
So back in October I finally took the plunge and bought my Young Living Premium Starter Kit. You wouldn’t have known but it has actually probably been a few years in the coming. It all started (as all good stories start) with an illness! With us all beginning to come down with a vomiting bug I started to clean our house within an inch of its life! But at the end I hated the thought of the bleach that I had lathered on each and every surface of our home…a home to 3 small girls at the time. And so my quest began!
For a long time I made my own household cleaner. I loved it but wanted more….I wanted to rid all my cleaners of the chemical ingredients. Again and again I was coming back to this product ‘Thieves’. A natural cleaner which was a one stop product for everything and could be used for immunity too from all the stories I had read!
As I researched, I loved the Seed to Seal vision of Young Living and the vast range of oils they offered. I knew the benefits of diffusing oils and so, despite the step into oils through cleaning, I decided to buy the Premium Starter Kit – I wanted to change our lifestyle rather than simply a few cleaning products.
And that was it!
I have been won over from the moment it arrived.
The diffuser has been going in every room, we have been making rollers for ourselves, for others and using topically on the skin. Such a lot to learn but I have been totally immersed in reading, researching and questioning so many aspects of how these oils help us and our families.
An amazing wealth of knowledge through the Facebook group and community that I have become a part of – it has been so brilliant. Encouraging people every step of the way! So many free resources and classes there for you to access and use when you sign up. An open, inclusive community for those pursuing this more natural way of living.
I took so long in weighing the whole ‘thing’ up – would I use all the oils; would I be able to afford it; would it actually benefit us as a family? So many questions – and all completely valid, but looking back, I spent such a long time rattling these around in my head instead of trying them out – I wish now that I’d jumped in much sooner! But as they say…better late than never!
If you are on the fence I’d say just take a risk and buy the kit. You have nothing to lose – if you don’t buy any more you’ll enjoy the kit and all it’s contents….if you fall in love, you’ll never look back!
