Hey there!
I was thinking about this coming winter and all that I have at my fingertips for staying healthy. Since I’ve been using Young Living products I have had only a few times of being sick or “below the wellness line”! (Literally 3 or 4 times in 8 years!!)
So I figured I would share this “gold” with you all today!
My go – to supplement that I cannot do without is NINGXIA RED!
This is a whole food supplement full of antioxidants that gives me so much energy I do not need coffee in the afternoon! Just 2 oz in the morning and 2oz in the afternoon keep me moving all day and supply lots of vitamins and minerals. The Ningxia wolfberry is one of the only foods with lots of potassium and magnesium together, BTW. Ningxia products are my absolute favorite in YL and I wouldn’t be without them! The taste is amazing as well!
Check out this info and short video on Ningxia Red:
My second favorite supplement would be Inner Defense.
Inner Defense has potent essential oils including Oregano, Thyme and Thieves blend to support immune system and healthy respiratory function. It creates an unfriendly terrain for yeast and fungus in the gut. We take it before a plane flight or when we start to feel “something coming on”. Three the first day, two the second and one the third pretty much does it! (#3295)
And this leads me to my next favorite supplement both for winter and all year long as well, and that is Life 9 probiotic.
When you take Inner Defense you must take a probiotic as well at a different time, preferably at night. Young Living’s probiotic is a highly potent probiotic with 17 billion live cultures from 9 beneficial bacteria strains. This supports a healthy immune system, optimal metabolism and promotes normal intestinal function. I’ve taken a lot of probiotic supplements over the years and this one is the only one that keeps me perfectly “regular” and balanced if you know what I mean! (#18299)
So, there you have my top 3 winter supplements that I cannot do without. I made a wishlist with these products for you so it’s easy to find : https://www.youngliving.com/us/en/myaccount/wishlist?listId=63863de537f813000aa0673f&enrollerId=2236723&sponsorId=2236723&userName=CAROL

Hi there!
My name is Carol and I’m a Mom of now three grown children and a physical therapist.
I’ve always felt like I wanted to do and have it all; both with a career and my children. (So I of course, I homeschooled and worked part time!). Somewhere in the middle of this hectic lifestyle I became more interested in natural health and wellness and loved learning how to keep all of us healthy and strong.
I also became addicted to afternoon coffee with sugar and sweet treats just to keep going!
Several years ago I was homeschooling my 3 teens and yes, still working as a PT in the afternoons. By the time I saw my patients I was exhausted and dragging. My blood sugar had dipped and I routinely reached for a sugar laden coffee and treat from Star Bucks. It got so bad I was yawning right in front of my patients every afternoon! My head just wasn’t clear and I was not giving my best.
When my good friend Cathy (a fellow homeschooler and busy working wife and mother) introduced me to some natural products from a trusted essential oil company, Young Living, I was ready to try them! What did I have to lose? I didn’t like dragging around or how jittery I felt on caffeine and sugar.
WOW! It worked! I drank 2 ounces everyday right before going to work after lunch and I had energy for the busy work afternoon! The big plus of course, was no coffee or sugar needed! (https://www.youngliving.com/us/en/product/ningxia-red)
Now my life looks much different as I continue to work, run a household and start up two side businesses. I have energy that carries me to bedtime without plummeting blood sugar or crashing. My mind is clear and I love how I feel using the red juice and essential oils!
Come join me and other Mama’s and learn how you can have less pain and more energy as you work and take care of your family! Are you ready to learn more?

Hey Ya'll, I have a lot to share with you!
I have a passion for natural health and fitness, from exercise to nutrition to the Young Living oils and products I talk about all the time! I also have a passion for Moms.
As a Mom of three now grown children, (and also a new "Nana!"), I know your struggles with pain, stress, fatigue and anxiety. I know what it’s like to come home after being away all day working, exhausted and hurting and trying to be the best wife and mother possible. I was there once myself!
My heart’s desire is to help you lead pain free, healthy, strong and vibrant lives as wives, mothers, professionals and leaders in your community. When you have pain anywhere, esp neck or back pain, it can overshadow all your other desires and activities. And why is it that we seem to always put everyone else around us first and consider ourselves last? I think it is important to “consider others before yourself” but I also think you can be a better wife and mother without pain, crushing anxiety and exhaustion.
But how to do this?!? It is so important that you do not ignore the pain you are feeling, both physically and emotionally. Pain is there for a reason and we need to find the root cause of it.
That is where I can help. As a physical therapist for over 30 years, I specialize in relieving physical pain and teaching my clients how to maintain this state of being and thrive.
Walk with me through Blogs, videos and courses to learn how to be pain free! Listen to my classes and posts about products that are pure and natural, and help give you energy and reduce your stress. I am here for you! We can do this together, Mama!
Blessings for your health,
Carol
Romantic Hormone Support with Essential Oils
We all need a little love and support these days!!
Our systems are bombarded with toxins and stress and when it comes to romantic support for our hormones, well, there are some fantastic essential oils that really help!
In my previous Romantic Oils blog I mentioned Progessence Plus which supports healthy progesterone levels. I want to introduce two blends created by D. Gary Young that are amazing natural support for our female hormone, estrogen. The first blend, Lady Sclareol is rich in phytoestrogens and very calming. It enhances mood and may help with PMS. Use topically and enjoy the fragrance!
Sclaressence is another blend supporting our hormones naturally by increasing estrogen levels combining clarey sage, fennel and peppermint. *Remember not to use either of these when pregnant because of the Clarey sage.
Endoflex supports hormonal balance and is esp helpful supporting the Endocrine system. Use on lower back or feet. Both Sclaressence and Endoflex come in vitality bottles to use internally as well.
We don’t want to leave out our men on this topic! One of our favorite oil blends is Shutran, created by D. Gary Young just for men. The chemical constituents in Shutran were made for a man to wear to attract a woman! It smells amazing girls! This also supports his hormones and cardiovascular system.
Golden Rod and Idaho Blue Spruce along with Nutmeg are incredibly supportive to help our man become a “stand up guy!” We have a fun class based on Lucy Libidos book that goes into this much more!
God is the author of sex and romance. Check out the Bible on this! Why wouldn’t He give us plants to help support our hormones and romance?
“Deep waters cannot quench love, nor rivers sweep it away. "Song of Solomon 8:7
Oils and Romance
Hello February!
How did it get here so quickly?
When February rolls around we all tend to think of romance! I will be spending Feb. 14th with the love of my life, Jeff. He is a flower giver so roses will be coming by the dozen!
Flowers and kindness certainly help get us in the mood for romance.
Essential Oils are also a huge part of my wellness protocol and most definitely help set the romantic tone this time of year! Young Living essential oils have a very special Seed to Seal process that makes them WORK! Check this out: seedtoseal.com
Orange oil as well as all the citrus oils helps bring happiness, joy and peace to our hearts and home. You can diffuse orange, use it topically (stay out of the sun!) and ingest our orange oil in water or tea! See how much you can use in a day as it will definitely lift you up.
Sensation oil was specifically blended for romance to encourage feelings of love and affection! Ladies, it smells better than the most expensive perfume I’ve ever used! I use the lotion as well!
Ylang Ylang is romantic oil, historically used as an aphrodisiac. It smells divine! Wear it as perfume, diffuse it and make a wonderful coconut oil lubricant with it!
Geranium is also great to help set the mood with easing nervous tension helping you to be more open and receptive.
Supporting our hormones is part of romance and Progessence Plus should be used daily (unless you’re pregnant.) It is a beautiful serum delivering natural progesterone and is a real pick me up. This oil was a life changer for me! It kept my cycle going two extra years as I headed into menopause and picked up the libido significantly! I use it morning and night and wouldn’t be without it! It is my little bottle of “happy!”
Enjoy February 14th with the one you love and make essential oils part of the romance! You won’t be disappointed!!
