Hello everyone. Like you I am always looking for ways I can live a happier and healthier lifestyle and not be wedded to a diet or exercise program that seems to be the answer to everything these days, or so the experts tell us. I have been using essential oils and oil infused supplements now for nearly twenty years. Of course I can’t imagine what my life would have been like if I hadn’t been introduced to Young Living Essential Oils in 1999. I can only tell you that the oils have given me a new lease on life—one that I can attest is a life of contentment and happiness. Now that doesn’t mean I have been pain or illness free—just 8 weeks ago I fell off my bicycle and dislocated my elbow and fractured both bones in my lower arm! Accidents do happen but thank heavens for the oils—I used them for comfort, relaxation, and to decrease inflammation.  I’m on the mend and wouldn’t be without my oils!

If we focus above the wellness line on balance, harmony and health and not on irritation, inflammation and disease below that line, then we will take positive steps toward health and wellness. That’s where our essential oils really shine since they can bring balance back to a system teetering on an imbalance leading to illness.

In a state of health, our immune systems are functioning adequately to maintain wellness. Our cells are literally “in tune” or in balance harmonically. Every atom, cell, tissue and organ is “singing” and there is an orderliness in all of this that creates a meaningful organization. Even your thoughts and emotions have vibratory quality. Of course we can measure all of this in cycles-per-second (cps) of a wave. Frequency is measured as Hertz—the number of cps at which energy moves. So when you are healthy you emit a particular frequency and when you emit less you are “out of tune.”

Where do essential oils come into play? Therapeutic quality essential oils are living substances—the life blood of the plant—and therefore they carry a particular frequency. Oils that are adulterated or created in the laboratory carry little to no frequency at all. So to stay above the wellness line we can use essential oils to re-tune or to keep the body in proper alignment or balance. Essential oils do not resonate with toxins in our bodies. They are the bio-energy or life-force within the plants and will actually drive out toxins in our bodies because these toxins do not resonate with the vibrational frequency of the oils.

Its no secret that we don’t end at our skin—we are dynamic energy systems that extend about 3 feet out from our bodies. The subtle energy nature of essential oils will primarily affect our subtle anatomy—that is, our electromagnetic biofield and our energy centers. To make this clearer—the essential oils bring balance and harmony to the whole of us since the physical body will always match what is in the field.

So to stay healthy we need to find whatever combination of therapies work for us to bring our body/mind/spirit complex into that state of harmony and balance—to one of harmonic resonance. Want to learn more about the frequency of oils and how they can assist you to stay above the wellness line? I have a small book called The Physics of Essential Oils, Vibration Underlies Everything and its available on my website under books.
