A Brief Introduction to Essential Oils

WHAT IS AN ESSENTIAL OIL? Natural aromatic compounds found in

plants Steam distilled or cold pressed extraction Powerful, safe benefits without side

effects

(Oil sacs on peppermint leaf)

Essential Oil Purity

Has no artificial ingredients or fillers Uses a third party for rigorous testing – every liter of oil passes six tests before being sold Can be ingested Plants used for oils are grown in their natural habitat, without chemicals.

An essential oil is only required to contain a minimum of 10% to be labeled as ‘pure’. doTERRA has set a higher standard with their Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils!

Essential Oil Safety

Use them on anyone, including babies and pets.

Use intuitively as you see fit- no fear of incorrect dosage or frequency of use.

Rub oil on the bottoms of your feet or place a drop under your tongue for immediate bloodstream absorption.

Essential oils are made from plants! They are safe and gentle, so you can use them with peace of mind.

Essential Oil Potency Sometimes one drop is all you need! - One drop of peppermint oil is equivalent to 28 cups of peppermint tea. Plants that are grown in their natural

habitat have stronger medicinal qualities. When used topically, some essential oils

should be diluted with a carrier oil.

Essential Oils Are Powerful

HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS Diffuse in a room to kill airborne pathogens

Opens airways The most effective method for mood elevation

HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS Apply to head, feet, ears, chest, back of the neck, and troubled areas

From bottom of feet, essential oils enter blood stream to affect entire body within 30 seconds

HOW TO USE ESSENTIAL OILS Taking internally is specific to doTERRA’s CPTG Essential Oils

Use under the tongue, in a capsule, or in water

Use as a daily supplement for targeted wellness

TIPS FOR USING THE OILS SUCCESSFULLY Use a reference guide Use small amounts frequently for acute

problems Use a couple times a day for chronic

issues Keep oils out of eyes and ear canal For sensitive skin (or contact with eyes),

dilute with oil – not water If you are not getting the results you want, you are either using the wrong oil or not enough
