Haley Zitting: Hey, guys-
Chad Goodman: Hello!
Haley Zitting: We’re so excited, it’s Monday and Chad’s gonna introduce us all.
Chad Goodman: Hello, welcome. Welcome, YL family.
And a shout out to my wife who’s watching.
Probably. (Laughter)
Anyway, I am Chad Goodman
director of training and education.
And with me are two of our amazing global trainers,
Haley Zitting, to my right and your left, and Leslie Lewis to my left.
Leslie Lewis: Good morning.
Chad Goodman: So, we’re here to talk about something exciting.
Haley’s going to introduce it for us.
Haley Zitting: We are super excited because
we’ve had so many new members join our
Young Living Family recently and so we wanted
to cover your Premium Starter Kit.
This is the most amazing way to get involved with Young Living.
And so we’re gonna kind of unbox it and then talk
to you guys a little bit about how to use the products in the kit.
Leslie Lewis: Absolutely. Let’s jump right in.
Okay, so, first of all, the Premium Starter Kit comes
in this beautiful premium packaging.
I love this box.
When you first open it up you’re able
to see the ten oils that you get.
That is a huge value of a collection.
This pocket right here has some print materials
about essential oils, just a little bit of education, as well as-
- Just some light reading. (Laughter)
- Hidden compartment.
- Oh, yes, there is a hidden compartment.
And Member Services has actually gotten
calls about, “Where’s the rest of the kit?” Well, it’s hidden.
- What’s awesome about this, too,
is we just want to point out, is on the back
you can pop out these little folding compartments
and it becomes its own stand.
So you can display your oils in your house,
or if you’re doing a class, or however you want to use it,
it looks really pretty, and it comes ready to use.
- I love that.
So, then, on the bottom there’s this little ribbon
that you open, and, ta-da, there’s the rest of it.
- Hooray! (Laughter)
- All right, do you want to talk about what comes in it?
- So you see NingXia Red.
NingXia Red, this is a go-to staple in my household.
NingXia wolfberry, powerful food.
So the juice, it tastes fantastic, especially for a really healthy...
- It’s like a berry blend.
So you get a lot of different berries.
And it also is an anti-oxidant powerhouse.
- Yes.
Super nutrition for you and your kids, your family.
I love doing this the morning and afternoon,
especially kind of after lunch, the low energy times.
And it’s infused with essential oils, of course, this is Young Living.
So we’re got Yuzu, orange, lemon, tangerine.
- So you’ve got two of these little packets
and you really only need to drink one of them a day.
So super easy to drink, little samples.
And then you can also buy these in bottle form.
So once you kind of find out how much you
love NingXia Red you can go ahead and buy a bottle form,
or you can buy it in these little packets.
Next, we have the household cleaner sample.
This is my favorite Young Living product,
if I had to pick a favorite - I don’t know, I always say that.
But this is amazing.
It’s a multi-purpose household cleaner.
So it’s a heavy cleaner, basically,
and what you do is you dilute it with water
and create your own dilution ratio,
depending on what type of cleaning you're doing.
So heavy cleaning, you add less water.
For a light cleaning, you add more water.
And you can clean every surface in your house with this,
from countertops to floors, to even spot treating laundry.
This really is your go-to cleaner.
And you get a sample of it in your Premium Starter Kit.
- Brand new white shirt, got a stain off.
- Yep, this stuff is awesome.
I always say this really is the only cleaner I have in my house.
I clean my shower, my grout, my toilets,
my countertops, everything, with just this little cleaner right here.
- And it won’t irritate you.
- No. It smells great.
- It’s plant-based, so there’s no chemicals,
there’s no harsh chemicals that you’re
adding to your house, it’s all plant-based.
- Yeah.
All right, the next thing we’re gonna talk about,
you get these love it, share it cards with these
cute little bottles for sharing your oil.
So you get ten of these empty bottles
and then there’s a bunch of different cards
that you can share a little bit of your oil.
This is a really great sharing tool.
So I’m gonna get a little bit closer so you can see how they work.
They have a little hole you can pop out,
they’ve got this tiny little bottle, you put whatever
kind of oil you were wanting to share,
this one’s the Frankincense card,
so it’s got a little bit of information on it.
But there’s five different kinds, and then there’s
some generic ones that aren’t pre-labelled.
And then you just put the little oil bottle
in like that and then put the lid on.
How cute is that?
- It’s so easy to share.
- And be able to share with your friends.
- When you’re excited about something you want to tell other people.
Here’s an easy way to share.
- Absolutely.
And you get ten of these little bottles,
and then five different types of oils and then
there’s one generic one that’s, like,
you can pick your favorite oil to share.
- Cute.
All right, so then we also get the roller fitment.
This makes topical application super easy for any of your oils.
So, you also get a bottle of Stress Away,
this is in my top five essential oils, easily.
And you get this in the bottom compartment of your starter kit.
And what you do, is there’s this little plastic orifice,
and you just pop that off - and I’m not gonna do it right now –
but then this just slides right on top.
So a lot of people get confused trying to attach it.
You have to take this plastic piece off.
And you put the roller fitment in, and it comes
with a different lid that you attach.
So this just makes topical application really easy.
- So you’ve gotta have this lid in order to get that to stay on,
you screw it on until you hear a little click and then…
- It’ll pop.
So speaking of oils, obviously you get a 11,
if you count the Stress Away,
11 of our most popular essential oils here at Young Living.
And a lot of people always ask, well, how do I use them?
I remember when I first started with essential oils,
I don’t know if was the same for you guys, I was very overwhelmed.
Like, how do I know what way is the best way to use them?
What do I even do when one says topical application?
You're telling me I just, like, rub it on?
Like, that was a foreign concept to me.
So, how do we use essential oils?
Let’s talk about that for just a minute.
- So, three primary ways, right?
Aromatically, we can diffuse.
And topically, we can put it on the skin, on the body.
And then internally, the Vitality line, for cooking,
culinary, dropping a couple drops in water, things like that.
So just, basically, what’s going on?
Why do we use oils in those ways?
The skin is structured in such a way that it’s porous.
So the skin’s our largest organ, it’s also our largest detoxifying organ.
So when we put on essential oils, the skin,
it’s gonna interact with the lipid molecules,
the fat molecules in the skin, and it’s gonna absorb
into the blood stream quite readily.
So when we put things on like essential oils,
it’s going to get into the blood stream.
And then aromatically when we diffuse oils,
even when we open the Stress Away
and we’re trying to smell it, it’s gonna interact
those odorant molecules are going to interact with the body.
It’s gonna get into the nose, it’s going to stimulate
the nervous system and actually function,
fire up something called the limbic system.
So it’s going to affect anything from mood,
behavior, even some physiological effects can take place.
So we really like to diffuse oils for lots of reasons,
and then put it on the skin, as well.
The bottom of the feet is a really high absorbent area,
so that’s one to try when you’re trying different oils
and see how they react with you.
And then in the culinary fashion, there’s lots of things
that you can do as well that we’ll talk about.
- Yeah. So if you notice here, there are two different types of labels.
You see up here we have white labels
and down here we have colorful labels.
So what does that mean? It’s super easy.
We have two lines of essential oils, really.
We have our Vitality line and just our regular essential oil line.
The Vitality line was created for internal or dietary use.
So the product in the oil bottle is actually the exact same.
So you’ll notice there’s a Lemon Vitality
and a regular lemon essential oil.
The product in the bottle is the exact same,
they’re just labeled for different uses.
- Differentiate for usage purposes, but same oil.
- So how do we use them, the Vitality oils,
what do you like to do with it?
- I love using Vitality oils.
Just like Chad said, you can put some in your water,
I use them in marinades, I use them in baking.
- I put them in my smoothies, or to flavor my water.
I love the citrus oils in my water bottle.
- You can get creative with NingXia Red
and try some different flavor combinations.
- Oh, yeah. Peppermint and grapefruit
are awesome to add with your Ningxia Red.
You can also create capsules.
So you can buy empty vegetable oils capsules
and you basically create your own concoction
and then you take them internally.
A lot of our members like to do that with
Frankincense, Vitality, or Cobaiba.
- DiGize Vitality, right here in your kit,
fantastic for after meals, or even before meals, type of thing.
- So that’s what you’re going to use these white labels for.
The other way we can use essential oils
that Chad mentioned, is aromatically.
- With a diffuser. So, like he said, smelling essential oils
is a wonderful way to get them into your system
and get the benefits of essential oils.
And you’re using them aromatically as soon
as you open the bottle because…
- You smell it.
- You smell it, so that’s how you’re gonna get it.
But another great way is to diffuse,
so Young Living has a full range of diffusers
that are everything from ultrasonic,
you mix them with water, to straight oil diffusers
and that puts them into the air in tiny particles,
so you can inhale them.
I love diffusing first thing in the morning, like,
before I go to bed at night and first thing in the morning,
those are my two bookends.
Because it’s just a wonderful addition to the morning.
- Yeah. A lot of people like diffusing during yoga.
Or I just diffuse around my house all the time with my kids.
When I’m getting my kids ready for bed at night
I’m sure you do this too, you just have your
own little diffuser blends that you love,
and it really helps to create the environment that you’re hoping.
The last way that we like to use essential oils is topically.
And topical application is probably the easiest,
in my opinion, but also, kind of the most confusing
for some people, or overwhelming.
But it’s super easy.
Really, all you have to do it take a bottle
of essential oil, open it up, put a drop in the palm
of your hand and apply it where you want, right?
So, Chad mentioned the bottoms of the feet
are a great place to start when you’re very
first on your essential oil journey.
I like putting it on my temples, or on the base
of my neck, or my shoulders.
Topical application is easy, but there also
is some safety tips, or guidelines.
Some oils are considered hot oils,
which means when you put them on they can
create a hot sensation on your skin, and so it’s good to dilute.
- I put peppermint under my nose this morning,
I do that a lot of mornings and it’s good for me,
but with my children I’d never do that.
- And I can’t do that.
It makes my nose run like crazy.
So what you want to do is add a carrier oil.
So good examples of carrier oils are coconut oil,
olive oil, grapeseed oil.
- I like Young Living vegetable oil, V-6, something like that.
- Yeah, Young Living has our carrier oil, it’s the V-6 oil.
- And it won’t dilute the effects of the oil.
It actually just helps cover more ground.
The carrier oil will still interact with the skin surface,
so it’s a good way to use the oil.
- Yeah, it doesn’t make the oil less powerful,
it just makes the sensation on your skin more comfortable.
And so that’s a great way to use them topically.
When you use oils topically, I like to use them after I work out.
Or before I go to bed at night, I always
put Stress Away on my neck before bed.
So there’s a lot of ways you can use essential oils topically. Right?
- Yeah. - All right, so do you want to touch on YLC?
- Yeah, so we actually have created,
our team’s created courses that are in your virtual office.
So when you login to your VO,
under Member Resources there is a little tab for Young Living Central.
So, YL Central, it’s a centralized hub of information to help you.
Especially new members, new to oils,
there’s a lot of basic information there.
And even a little next level information.
But there's a course called Essential Oil,
or EO Basics, and also a course on the PSK.
So you can go in there, get familiar with it,
and they’re actually courses that you could
then teach in your home, or share with others if you so desire.
So, good information there on Young Living Central.
- Yeah, make sure to check it out because it's endless information.
- There’s so much information.
We’ve created them with the intention that they’re bite-size,
they’re easy to understand, easily digestible.
And so we hope you enjoy that resource that we’ve created for you.
- And we are super excited, because all week
this week we are focusing on
the Premium Starter Kit on our Facebook page.
So come back, every day this week we will be
highlighting the oils in the kit with short videos
that talk about usage, talk about how to use them,
why they’re so awesome.
And so you can really just dive in and learn
about your Premium Starter Kit all in one week.
So check back for that more this week.
- That’s it.
Congratulations to you, welcome to Young Living.
