I have always used Essential Oils – you know the $5 ones from the grocery story. I thought an oil was an oil right? Nope. There are oils and then there are oils. There are different grades and some contain chemicals and other added things. It was only when I tried a Young Living Oil did I see the difference. I learned what PURE ESSENTIAL OIL meant – no junk.
Oils have been used forever – you can even find references to them in the Bible. They anointed people with oil all the time. Frankincense, Myrrh, Cedarwood, Cypress, the list goes on and on.
What are Essential Oils?
According to the dictionary an essential oil is:
“a natural oil typically obtained by distillation and having the characteristic fragrance of the plant or other source from which it is extracted.”
It may be from the bark, the flower, the leave, the roots, the stem, or whatever. It is from Nature and it is good! Most oils are not oily at all. They may be clear or colored, but are are often highly concentrated. A little will go a long way with these!
Definitively, essential oils are aromatic liquids extracted from trees, roots, seeds, shrubs, and other plants that possess an impressive array of therapeutic compounds. These compounds work in multiple ways to relieve pain, clear out nasal and respiratory passages, calm the mind and senses, and boost energy levels, among other benefits. And one of the primary reasons why they work so well is that they contain multiple trillions of tiny molecules that easily enter the body and nourish cells.
“There are approximately 40 million trillion molecules in one drop of essential oil (that’s approximately 40,000 molecules for each cell in the average human body),” explains an article on essential oils published in the International Wellness Directory. “They are so small that they enter your body through the skin and go everywhere in your body,” it adds; noting that many other therapeutic compounds found in nature have much larger molecules that are not as efficient or effective at entering cells.
