It’s a Dazzling December!
Some of the BEST gifts come from Mother Nature!
It’s been a tradition that dōTERRA offers a free Frankincense with every 200 pv* order (Limit 4 separate orders) but we were wondering how they would be able to do it with nearly 9 million customers this year! But they have!
Frankincense is the granddaddy of essential oils… the king of essential oils, given to the Christ child by the Wisemen. It was revered then and now for the power it holds to encourage normal cellular growth and restoration. Did you know… 85% of all Frankincense production in the world is done by dōTERRA! Its EXTRAORDINARY health benefits support brain and cellular function and it’s #1 for reducing inflammation. It offers feelings of peace, relaxation and overall wellness! dōTERRA’s Frankincense is actually more potent and powerful because we take 4 varieties of Frankincense and combine them together to create a more diverse, or a “super Frankincense”. I like to put 2 drops under my tongue each morning to support my body. It strengthens the immune system, promotes cellular health, and it’s safe to consume daily for internal benefits.Frankincense promotes a healthy inflammatory response and acts as an overall tonic to the body’s systems, helping them function optimally. We like to rub it on our hands after a long day of gardening for a warming and soothing effect. Rubbing it in prevents it from flashing off. Rubbing it in drives it into the cells. Frankincense also promotes youthful, radiant–looking skin and slows the signs of aging by reducing the appearance of skin imperfections, stretch marks and scarring including those raised keloid scars. It can be applied to the bottoms of feet to promote feelings of relaxation and to balance mood. Personally, I have enjoyed using it when my throat feels weak or scratchy. 2 drops of Frankincense and 2 drops of Myrrh in a small amount of raw local honey and my throat is strong again in no time. I have also used it in my neti pot for opening up breathing.
Milady Melissa is a powerful part of this royal court! Other companies often attempt to disguise other oils and say it’s Melissa, dōTERRA’s Melissa is the real deal. It’s extremely rare, and very expensive because it takes 66 pounds of plant matter to fill 1 5ml bottle. This amazing oil is the strongest support to a healthy immune system, but it also holds the chemistry that helps calm tension and nerves and promotes feelings of relaxation. My personal favorite use is for those pesky cold sores. I’ve never used anything that worked faster or more efficiently. The instant I detect something brewing, I put a TINY amount on the area every 30 minutes for about 3 or 4 times, and usually I can divert an eruption. It stings because it’s very strong, so just a tiny amount is sufficient. Normally Melissa wholesale is $115, but you can save this month by getting Melissa for $20 off – it’s worth every cent!
And Clove powerful in it’s own right! It scores 1,078,700 on the ORAC scale compared to blueberries at 2400. What that means is… Clove’s Antioxidant capacity is equal to 450 pounds of carrots, 120 quarts of blueberries, or 49 gallons of beet juice. And since you probably don’t eat that much carrots, blueberries or beet juice in a year’s time, it’s very convenient to just use the essential oil that is certified pure and at therapeutic strength! Antioxidants help the body protect itself from the rigors of oxidation or free radicals, that overwhelm the body’s natural free-radical defense system. In time, and with repeated free radical attacks that the body cannot stop, that damage can lead to a host of chronic diseases.
Mother Nature provides thousands of different antioxidants in various amounts in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and legumes. When the body needs to put up its best defense, especially true in today’s environment, antioxidants are crucial to maintaining your good health. Clove is my go to for this purpose! We love that it’s FREE this month when purchasing through a Loyalty Rewards Program with 125 PV by the 15th. Plus these cute little ornaments come with it! You can drip the oil on the ornaments for a lovely aroma with benefits! It’s not just a pretty smell, but strengthens all who smell the aroma!

Hello November!
The first of the month is always exciting in dōTERRA! Every month if you purchase 125 PV in your Loyalty Rewards Program by the 15th, you will receive the Product of the Month – POM free! This month it’s White Grapefruit! This is an exclusive oil with dōTERRA!
The name comes from the color of its white peel but it shares similar chemistry and characteristics of other grapefruit varieties. Not quite as sweet as its pink grapefruit cousin, the aroma of White Grapefruit still evokes a fruity, citrusy tone. High in Limonene, the oil is cold pressed from the fresh peel. This oil shines at creating a fresh, sweet environment. Ideal as a joy-enhancing air freshener, the scent of White Grapefruit is clarifying, cheering and uplifting. White Grapefruit is high in limonene, which makes it great for skin and dental cleansing. It may also help support gastrointestinal health and metabolism when taken internally.*
PLUS!! Each month in our Oils Family, we have a free drawing on Facebook for everyone who purchases in their Loyalty Rewards Program! Have you been participating? Contact me for more information.
How to Use
Place 3-4 drops in your diffuser in your home to create a light and refreshing atmosphere. Add one drop to facial cleansers, shampoos, or toothpastes for added cleansing properties. Place one to two drops in the palm of your hand, rub together, and cup over the nose and mouth for 30 seconds to refresh the senses. You can put a drop in 4 ounces of liquid. For topical use, apply one to two drops to desired area. Dilute with a carrier oil to minimize any skin sensitivity. For skin sensitivities, dilute with a carrier oil. Since it is a citrus oil, it’s photosensitive, so allow 12 hours when applying to the skin before sunbathing or UV rays. Keep out of reach of children. If you are pregnant, nursing, or under a doctor’s care, consult your physician. Avoid contact with eyes, inner ears, and sensitive areas.
PV means Product Volume. It’s very close to the dollar amount spent on items, depending upon what item is purchased.

Amazing October Promotions
Every month, doTERRA has new promotions on products. This has always excited me, since I’ve enjoyed so many benefits from essential oil usage, but most of all, the generosity of doTERRA is what endears me to them. Most people would think that a company would try to get people to use their not so popular products by offering them for sale at a steep discount. Not doTERRA. They offer their most popular products or even new products as promotions. October is no different!
A little explanation… PV means Product Volume. It’s very close to the dollar amount spent on items, depending upon what item is purchased. In October when you make any type of order that is 200 PV, you will receive Copaiba – soft gels & 15 ml bottle and Yellow Mandarin free. It’s over $80 in free product! The free POM means product of the month. Each month doTERRA offers a free product when you purchase 125 PV through a Loyalty Rewards Program by the 15th of the month. And every month there’s a product that is marked down by 10%, but this month a very popular oil is marked down 20%!
How to Use!
First off, let’s talk about Roman Chamomile. I don’t ever recall doTERRA offering this oil for a discounted price. It’s a powerful oil with wonderful benefits. It’s a favorite for moms of infants with grumbly tummies. It’s very soothing to a tiny digestive system! Dilution is 1 drop Roman Chamomile to 10 drops pure carrier oil when using for infants. It’s also well known for the support it gives if under stress or shock. It effectively supports a normal blood pressure, sciatica discomfort, women’s menstrual cramping. Itchy eyes, insect bites, parasites, and even anger, irritability & agitation.
Our 200 PV Promo
We all have been so blessed with Copaiba! It was so popular when it was announced at Convention a few years back that it sold out rapidly and was out of stock 3 times! doTERRA’s Copaiba is 4 species blended together offering- unique and differential results between our Copaiba and all the rest. Because of this, the unique chemistry in doTERRA’s Copaiba is more complex, bringing a higher metabolic potential and a longer interaction and response in the body due to 99.86% sesquiterpenes, creating a very effective anti-inflammatory response. The BCP in Copaiba has direct activity in selectively and actively binding to the receptors in body. It has a wide safety margin – safe and non-toxic. It has been found to regulate and promote healthy brain, muscle, organ function, body comfort, memory function, lipid regulation, cellular antioxidant defenses, cellular longevity, virtually supporting all body functions. The benefits of daily Copaiba use helps us live a longer healthier life with greater periods of homeostasis when used daily on regular basis. Copaiba is powerful at soothing pain and discomfort in body.
A very rare oil from doTERRA, the aroma of Yellow Mandarin is reminiscent of opening a bag of mandarin candies, a citrus cocktail of rich mandarin, sweet oranges, and honeyed lemons all at once. It has similar chemistry as Red Mandarin and Green Mandarin. It’s harvested in between the 2. So, if you’re wanting a beautiful scent for uplifting the mood and cleansing the skin and system, you’re going to adore this one!! This oil cannot be obtained any other way from doTERRA.
Free Product of the Month!
Clementine – Sunshine in a bottle! Great for those days when you are overwhelmed, uninspired or just down in the dumps, Clementine helps one feel more invigorated and less anxious. The cleansing and purifying power of Clementine makes household cleaning easier and safer than you ever imagined… yet it’s also very powerfully cleansing within the body, for metabolic function and gastrointestinal health. Adding clementine to your routine gives peace of mind for a happy, healthy body.
Now… the strategy!
When you purchase 200 PV in your Loyalty Rewards Program by the 15th, you will receive BOTH the 200 PV Promotion and the POM! How sweet is that?! We cannot have a Loyalty Rewards Program on the first month of our membership, but when you open your account with an enrollment or starter kit that is 200 PV or more, you automatically will receive the free 200 PV promo.
Let me know how I can help you!
Summertime Breeds Silliness
The heat of Summer may have WARPED my brain!
But I find comfort in laughing. So my mind has wandered to hairstyles. You may ask, what’s so funny about hairstyles? Let’s see if you can find the humor in this… I’m not bashing anyone, just making an observation, free of political correctness…
Hairstyles of the 20’s
Sophisticated, demure, short… and if a woman didn’t want to follow the trend, they would put their long hair in a few buns so it would look short. Men’s styles were also very sophisticated, every hair in place.
Hairstyles of the 40’s
Ladies allowed their hair to be long again, enjoying a fuller look. The styles were very elegant, glamorous, classic, romantic and terribly chic. Men’s styles didn’t change too much. Still neat, tidy, and I’m assuming, comfortable under a hat as hats were worn often.
The 60’s Revolution
For those old enough to remember, the 60’s were all about revolting against that status quo. The Age of Aquarius was an age to rebel against anything from the previous years. Hair styles dictated this. I grew up in the 60’s so I participated in the styles. The early 60’s were different than the mid to late 60’s. Style were constantly changing.
The 80’s Brought New Expression
I feel like the 80’s brought full and sexy hair in the lime light. I loved 80’s styles. For the younger man, the mullet was in, which began the transition back to shorter hair for men though longer hair was still enjoyed as well.
Fast Forward to 2017
What possessed him to embrace this style? Why would a woman be considered attractive with hair that might hurt someone? Will people in the future look at our styles today and wonder, “What were they thinking?”
Just me, seeing the humor in some hairstyles today… it’s just silliness, and not intended to offend anyone. These styles are actually attractive, and those who wear them, wear them well. Hope you can find the humor in this and in all things. A sense of humor is the best remedy for life. Let’s not take life too seriously. Find opportunities to laugh today and everyday.
