“Who Let the Dogs Out?”
2 oz. chilled NingXia Red
1 drop lemon or orange essential oil
2 drops tangerine essential oil
1 drop frankincense essential oil
1 drop cinnamon bark essential oil (That is where the barking came from!)

“The Unnamed”
2 oz. chilled NingXia Red
2 drops of each:

“The Nuclear Explosion”

If you didn’t get a chance to visit the bar this year, you’ll have to make your way to convention 2010 in Salt Lake: We are already planning some amazing surprises!

Young Living has some amazing essential oil collections. One that is Gary Young’s favorite is Feelings. Gary found that these six essential oil blends lift the senses above negativity and move one forward despite painful memories.

The blends inside Feelings are Valor®, Harmony™, Forgiveness™, Inner Child™, Release™, and Present Time™. You may have tried these oils individually, but not together as prescribed in the Feelings regimen. Feelings shows you where to apply these oils for harmonic balance. Applying the Feelings oils is easy: Apply Valor to the feet, Harmony to a preferred chakra point, Forgiveness to the navel, Present Time behind the ears, Release over the liver, Inner Child under the nose, and Valor one more time on the feet (check out the Product Information Page).

Listen to you your body as the oils are applied. Application may take up to two hours as part of meditation.

Listen here to Gary talk about the Feelings Kit.

I would love to hear your testimony of using the Feelings essential oil blends.

For essential oil enthusiasts, nothing defines the holiday season like frankincense. But some look at the different brands and species on the market and ask, “Which of these oils is best?” For Young Living, the answer to this question lay deep in the heart of Arabia, where a select group of people have made understanding this legendary plant their life’s work.

Young Living’s Founder and President, D. Gary Young, has made it his passion and practice to personally inspect the source, cultivation, and preparation of all Young Living essential oils. Gary’s most recent global tour took him once again to Africa and Arabia to examine our current oil preparation and investigate other frankincense suppliers (to read more about the trip visit Gary Young’s blog).
