What To Do While You Wait On Your Kit To Arrive!

Congratulations!!!!  You've ordered your kit!

Sadly you have to wait for it to ARRIVE!

But there are a few things you can do while you wait that will set you up for success once your kit arrives.

1)  Order yourself some coconut oil.  Trust me....you're going to want to have it on hand when your oils arrive.  You can use it to make creams and as a carrier oil with your oils.

I have been using one that I purchased at WalMart. You can also check your favorite healthfood store or order from Amazon .

When you are shopping for coconut oil, you want to look for organic,  cold-pressed, unrefined and extra virgin. The more of those you can find listed on your coconut oil the better. The less processing the better.

2) Order yourself some grape seed oil.  I got mine at the grocery store, but you can also get it from Whole Foods or order from Amazon.  Here's a great one on Amazon.

3) Find an essential oils book you trust.  I HIGHLY recommend the Essential Oils Pocket Reference.
I like that it references Young Living oils specifically compared to other books that don't.  I plan to keep these in stock so please check with me before you order online.  You can also find it on Amazon as well sometimes but it can be pretty pricey.

If you're the "go big or go home type" then I recommend the Essential Oils Desk Reference which is just the Daddy of the one above. :-)  I got the smaller one first, and now I really want the desk reference.  I LOVE it but it is B-I-G.  The top one is definitely much easier to carry around and use on a day to day basis.

4)  Begin to think about what kind of containers you want to store things in if you mix up creams.  Lots of people use small glass food jars or baby food jars.   I plan to purchase some metal tins from Specialty Bottle online.  You can also purchase containers from Abundant Health 4U but on both of these routes shipping can be pricey.  Great idea is to order with a friend and split shipping. You can always check with me if you are local...I might have some extras you can purchase. I also found some glass jars at Hobby Lobby! I got them for 50% off the week they were an on sale item!

By no means do you have to purchase anything fancy! Using what you already have works great!  Just remember that you want to use glass since these Essential Oils truly do have therapeutic properties and several of them will attack the toxins in plastic.  Remember to get amber bottles if buying glass. The light can break down the healing properties of the oils.

Hope that helps get you set up for success when your kit arrives!  Can't wait to see the oils helping your family!
