I am 23 years old. I sell DoTerra essential oils as a Wellness Advocate. I'm pretty sure you are probably wondering what are essential oils? Essential oils are the essence of a plant, an amazing gift from the earth, distilled and prepared for you to bring many health benefits and ways to use these oils in your home. Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils. The word doTERRA means from the earth.

There are many ways to use these oils such as aromatically, topically and internally. I have used these doTERRA essential oils for years because they help me with my allergies. Specifically, Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint are my favorite oils that I started using for this purpose. The reason why I use doTERRA oils is because doTERRA sources these oils directly from an environment that the specific oil is from and thrives at optimum potency. For example, Lavender is sourced from France. This is because that is where Lavender is grown and thrives in the environment in France the best. The way I use Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint is by taking an empty shot glass and filling it with water and I add two drops of each oil in the shot glass and mix it with a spoon and then drink it. I have been to an allergist and this is the only thing that works for me and my allergies.

I could go on forever on this page about how many different oils there are because doTERRA is always making new products. doTERRA has been doing the essential oil business since 2008. I started using them and learning about them in 2016. My mom and I both sell them and I saw a huge difference in our health from using them from then to now. Essential oils to me, are God's gift to the world that everyone should be using. Now, I am not a doctor but, these essential oils were created by a team of doctors and scientists who use them themselves. The one who started it all was Dr. Hill. If you research him on doTERRA or on youtube you will find tons of information about him and his discoveries. I am pretty sure that if you read this far you are probably thinking ok so why are they amazing? What makes these oils so special? I can only tell you how pure these oils are and what each oil does but I can't guarantee they will work for everyone. As a wellness advocate, I can teach you ways to use these oils for whatever ails you such as headache, allergies, etc., but I leave the rest up to you of whether you want to try them or not. I know that it sounds scary at first, but once you take the first step of changing your health by using these doTERRA products you won't regret it. If by chance, you try it and get an allergic reaction, make sure your doctor what is the best way to treat it. I only know how to get essential oil, Peppermint out of your eye because I have done it by accident before when I was learning. The trick is to use fractionated coconut oil or any olive, canola, avocado oil you have and put it on your eye gently. Another way is to use milk to get the Peppermint out of your eye. Any other reaction I would highly recommend asking your doctor. I understand allergic reactions because I have very sensitive skin so when I use any essential oil I use a carrier oil, fractionated coconut oil which doTERRA sells as well along with other self- care products. The carrier oil helps with skin sensitivity and helps the essential oil last longer in your skin then if you just apply with the essential oil. The best place that I found that works the best is on your feet. If you would like to learn more about these amazing oils, my mom and I have a Facebook page called DoTerra Essential Oils 2020.
