DAY ONE:

The INTEGUMENTARY System! This system consists of skin, hair, nails, glands and nerves! Lavender, Cedarwood and Melrose are just a few of the essential oils that support this system! Try Sulfurzyme for excellent nail and skin support: Sulfurzyme® combines wolfberry with MSM, a naturally occurring organic form of dietary sulfur needed by our bodiesevery day to maintain the structure of proteins, protect cells and cell membranes, replenish the connections between cells, and preserve the molecular framework of connective tissue. MSM also supports the immunesystem, the liver, circulation, and proper intestinal function and works to scavenge free radicals. Wolfberries contain minerals and coenzymes that support the assimilation and metabolism of sulfur! Powerful stuff, right?! Have you tried Sulfurzyme to support your INTEGUMENTARY stystem?! I LOVE making my own homemade facial wash that includes lavender and frankincense. My homemade face serum contians ROSE (buy it – seriously worth it!!), franincense, myrhh, and lavender. I can tell a visible difference in the tone, texture, and overall beauty of my skin. I use this in conjunction with the ART skincare line.

Day 2:
The Digestive System
This system is a group of organs working together to convert food into energy and basic nutrients to feed the entire body. Food passes through a long tube inside the body known as the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract). The GI tract is made up of the mouth, throat, esophagus, small intestine, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and large intestine.
A few ways to support this system:
1. Incorporate probiotics into your diet. Life 5 is a high potency probiotic that builds and restores core intestinal health by providing five clinically proven probiotic strains including two advanced super strains to enhance intestinal health, sustain energy and improve immunity.
2. Eat a high fiber diet. Balance Complete is a super-food-based meal replacement that is both a powerful nutritive energizer and a cleanser. Balance Complete is high in fiber, high in protein, and contains the good fats, enzymes, vitamins, and minerals needed for a nutritionally dynamic meal. Balance Complete also features Young Living’s proprietary V-Fiber blend, which supplies an amazing 11 grams of fiber per serving, absorbs toxins, and satisfies the appetite while balancing the body’s essential requirements.
3. Try using DiGize, Fennel and AromaEase!
DiGize is a blend that contains: tarragon, ginger, peppermint, juniper, fennel, anise, patchouli and lemongrass. It is a favorite in our house, and I’ve learned not to leave home without it! DiGize provides support to the entire digestive system…all those gross issues stay at bay with this little oil!

DAY 3:

The IMMUNE System! Everyone needs IMMUNE support! Whether you’re out and about around town, traveling across the country, at the office, leading a classroom or hanging with your kids … You are always being exposed to germs! My daughter has been in four different camps this summer – that’s 4 different groups of kids with a whole new set of germs with each new set of kids! Yes, we need immune support!!

The human body is under near constant attack from pathogens, or disease-carrying parasites. The immune system includes two levels or layers of protection. The body’s first line of defense is the skin and lining of the cavities (especially the gut and lungs). They act as a barrier to the entry of unwanted substances and foreign cells. If foreign bodies penetrate through these defenses, the immune system is activated. Cells and proteins within the blood and lymph attack, disarm, destroy, and remove the foreign bodies.

It’s a dirty world out there! Arm yourself with Thieves Household Cleaner, Waterless Hand Purifier, Wipes, and so much more!

There are so many ways to support our immune systems: Ningxia Red, Thieves, Lemon, Oregano … So many to choose from! I love making immune supporting roll-ons! I send a roller with my daughter to camp everyday to help support her immune system!

Try this! 20 drops of each of Thieves, Lemon and Oregano oil in a 15ml empty EO bottle and top it off with a carrier oil (e.g., grape seed oil) – snap on your metal roller fitment and wallah! You have an immune support roll-on!

Here are a few of my favorites:

Thieves essential oil blend was inspired by the legend of four 15th-century French thieves who formulated a special aromatic combination composed of clove, rosemary, and other botanicals they used while robbing the dead and dying. Young Living’s one-of-a-kind Thieves blend, crafted in the spirit of that legendary combination, can be found in all of the Thieves products. When taken internally, Thieves supports healthy immune function*, and it includes Eucalyptus radiata essential oil, which may help maintain a healthy respiratory system.* When taken as a dietary supplement, Thieves is an ideal complement to a daily wellness regimen.*

Raven is made with Ravintsara, Peppermint, Eucalyptus Radiata and other essential oils that are deeply soothing when applied to the chest and throat.

DiGize combines Tarragon, Ginger, Peppermint, Fennel, Lemongrass, Anise and Patchouli essential oils to support healthy digestion.

The Golden Touch kit is an awesome way to support your immune system! It includes seven 5 ml bottles of oil blends, including DiGize, EndoFlex, JuvaFlex, Melrose, Raven, RC, and Thieves. This kit is very economical at just $84.75 with a wholesale membership – that’s about $12 per bottle! Great deal, right?!

DAY 4:
The NERVOUS System! The nervous system consists of two main parts…the central nervous system (made up of the brain and the spinal cord) and the peripheral nervous system (contains all the nerves in the body outside of the brain and the spinal cord). These two systems work together to ensure our body parts, such as our fingers, can send signals to the central nervous system for our brains to process.
There are many essential oils that support the nervous system; however, there are two in particular that are AMAZING!! The first is Copaiba..it has 55% of beta caryophyllene (Google it to learn more), the highest amount of any essential oil and it supports the body’s natural response to injury or irritation. It also is considered a MAGNIFIER of any oil it is paired with! The next oil is a blend…Brain Power. Who couldn’t use Brain Power?? It is high in sesquiterpenes (another Google worthy word ) and helps to promote a sense of clarity and focus! On the supplement side, SUPER B is comprehensive vitamin complex containing eight essential and energy-boosting B vitamins: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9, and B12. It not only supports the nervous system, but assists with energy and mood too!! One of my favorite mid-day pick me up’s is a drop or two of Orange and Peppermint in my water – it tastes good and it energizes me.

DAY 6:

The CARDIOVASCULAR System! This system is responsible for moving oxygen, nutrients, hormones and waste throughout the body. You need to support this system as it is powered by the hardest working organ which is the heart! We LOVE NINGXIA RED & MINDWISE in our house! Everyone drinks at least one once of Ningxia Red in the morning and sometimes another shot in the afternoon. It’s so easy to mix into smoothies or to just grab on your way out the door!

MindWise™ combines exotic sacha inchi nut oil with a proprietary MindWise oil blend for a unique supplement that supports normal brain and heart function. Harvested from the Peruvian Amazon, sacha inchi nuts are cold pressed to create a vegetarian oil with a high proportion of unsaturated fatty acids and an unmatched percentage of desirable omega-3 fatty acids (α-Linolenic acid). Medium chain triglycerides (MCT) and pure essential oils are added to complete the MindWise oil blend. The proprietary Memory blend features ALCAR, GPC, and bio-identical CoQ10, ingredients that have been studied for their beneficial health properties. Generous amounts of vitamin D3 and a unique delivery method create a premium supplement that supports normal memory function and overall cognitive and cardiovascular health. I love the taste too, it’s got a mildly nutty flavor, delish!

Ylang Ylang is grown on our farm in Equador and smells amazing! This oil supports heart health and is an oil we use daily in our home by diffusing or applying topically.

Aroma Life Aroma Life™ combines the harmonizing effects of ylang ylang with known powerhouses cypress, helichrysum, and marjoram. Pulsing with life, this vibrant blend energizes your life force. It is best applied over heart energy – front and/of back.
It contains: Cypress, marjoram, Helichrysum, and ylang ylang in a base of sesame seed oil.

True Source is a total system support supplement that is currently being reformulated and will be released this fall!

Other ways to support a healthy cardiovascular system include lots of physical activity (30 minutes of brisk walking per day) and eating a diet rich in vegetables, fruits, and lean proteins.

DAY 7:

The Urinary System
The urinary system, also known as the renal system, consists of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and the urethra. The purpose of the renal system is to eliminate wastes from the body, regulate blood volume and blood pressure, control levels of electrolytes and metabolites, and regulate blood pH. The best way to encourage a healthy immune system is drinking plenty of water throughout the day in order to keep a normal urinary pattern. This works to remove any waste products in your system. Among Young Living’s supplements there are a few great choices for supporting a healthy Urinary System. Alkalime is a precisely balanced, effervescent, acid-neutralzing pH mineral complex formulated to support normal acid levels in the digestive system. Inner Defense uses Youg Living’s Thieves essentia oil to support the body’s systems. Other essential oils you might find helpful are Sandalwood, Sage, Thyme, Fennel, ImmunePower and my FAVORITE Bergamot. Fennel has traditionally been used as a digestive aid and to balance Menstrul cycles. Sandalwood and Immupower are both great immune stimulants. Don’t forget, adding Essential Oils to your water will help you get the necesarry water consumed throughtout the day!

DAY 8:

The lymphatic system is essential for keeping our bodies above the wellness line! It is connected to both the circulatory, digestive, and Immune systems. The lymphatic system has multiple interrelated function including filtering and recycling fluid from the circulatory system, absorbing and transporting fat and fatty acids for the digestive system, and transporting white blood cells and other immune cells. We definitely want to keep this system moving!

A great blend to make is 3 drops Cypress, 2 Drops Grapefruit, and 1 drop Orange. Dilute 50:50 with a carrier and apply on under arms and on any sore glands 2-3 times daily. You can also then cover with a warm compress. Another choice is having a Raindrop Massage! Lastly some great Nutritionals are ImmuPro, Super C, Life 5, and Digest and Cleanse. These suggestions are in addition to the products listed in this graphic.

Day 9:

REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM: Men & Women
Hormones are critical to maintaining vibrant health. Estrogen and progesterone need to be balanced in order to work together as counterparts. If this balance is disrupted we feel the need to tuck in our “CRAZY”, but we can’t. Progesterone and testosterone increase physical desire. Testosterone helps build muscle and decrease fat. Hormones help with brain function, melatonin, DHEA & Cortisol. If these are out of whack, we might feel like a DISASTER, and yes we are RIGHTFULLY so. Let’s be real.
Gary Young has found in 25 + years of research that hormones and enzymes are two of the most critical needs of the human body. Some Natural Options:
FemiGen: Support for the reproductive system as a women transitions into menopause. Capsule of several nutritional components such as black cohosh, ginseng etc… & EO’s Clary Sage, Sage, Ylang Ylang. Read more about this onhttp://ylsearch.com/
Estro: Liquid that is a great alternative to synthetic estrogen. Black Cohosh, Blue Cohosh, Royal Jelly, Fennel, Lavender, Clary Sage.
EndoGize: Daily supplement for HER & HIM with strong support to the hormone activity of the body.
Mister: Helps balance emotions for men and promotes mental stability during stress. Supports healthy prostate. Supports Low Testosterone levels in MEN & mature WOMEN.
Dragon Time: Contains natural phytoestrogens which help balance emotions during PMS. Great for teenagers & young adults.
Shutran: A blend that is empowering and boosts feelings of masculinity. I’ve heard the aroma is VERY appealing to women & men. Helpful for low testosterone levels in men & women.
Progessence Plus: It’s the first ever pure progesterone serum to enter the market. Formulated by Dan Purser, MD and D. Gary Young. Pure, super micronized progesterone from wild yam is infused into pure, therapeutic grade oil. Supportive of menopause symptoms, supports conceiving, emotional support, eases PMS symptoms, acne. ** Personally, I’m super thankful for Progessence Plus. I have been able to stop taking synthetic progesterone and feel better than ever by applying this oil twice daily. Emotionally I feel that my moods are much more stable and not up and down as often or as extreme. I had symptoms that put me bed at least one day a month. Those symptoms were and are TOTALLY gone after 6 weeks of using P.P. HOLLA! Happy Girl Here! Clary Sage also helps me not have to tuck in my Crazy. – Tricia Glenn
Other essential Oils that have estrogen like activity: Fennel, Anise, Sage, SclarEssence, Lady Sclareol, Clary Sage.

DAY 10:
The Skeletal System
The Skeletal system is all of the bones in the body and the tissues such as tendons, ligaments and cartilage that connect them. Your teeth are also considered part of your skeletal system, even though they aren’t considered to be bones. The main job of the skeleton is to provide support for our body.

How can we support this system?

1. Sulfurzyme combines wolfberry with MSM, a naturally occurring organic form of dietary sulfur needed by our bodies every day to maintain the structure of proteins, protect cells and cell membranes, replenish the connections between cells, and preserve the molecular framework of connective tissue.

2. BLM supports normal bone and joint health. This formula combines powerful all-natural ingredients, such as type II collagen, MSM, glucosamine sulfate, and manganese citrate, enhanced with therapeutic-grade essential oils.

3. Ortho Ease Massage Oil soothes and warms tired and stressed bodies, helping to combat the damaging effects of everyday activities.

4. Cypress – supports a healthy circulatory system (which supports strong bones)

5. Panaway – reduces irritation following exercise or strain

I love to take BLM, sulfurenzyme, and apply many of these oils regularly to support all my bones! This is especially important if you are stressing them a lot during training and performance events.

Day 11:

The Respiratory System

Each day we breathe about 20,000 times. All of this breathing couldn’t happen without help from the Respiratory System, which includes the nose, throat, voice box, windpipe, and lungs. With each breath, you take in air through your nostrils and mouth, and your lungs fill up and empty out. As air is inhaled, the mucous membranes of the nose and mouth warm and humidify the air.

Many factors (including genetics, pollutants and irritants, and infectious diseases) can affect the health of your lungs and respiratory system and cause respiratory problems.

How can we support this system?

1. By using Inner Defense. It reinforces systemic defenses, creates unfriendly terrain for yeast/fungus, promotes healthy respiratory function, and contains potent essential oils like oregano, thyme, and Thieves® which are rich in thymol, carvacrol, and eugenol for immune support.

2. With these Essential Oils and Blends:

-Eucalyptus Blue, Hyssop, Peppermint, Thieves

-R.C. – supports a healthy respiratory system when diffused or apples as a run on the chest

-Breath again roll-on is wonderful to use whenever you feel your respiratory system needs some extra support or before exercise. I love to apply in on the the back of neck.

3. Avoid Tobacco

4. Maintain a Balanced Diet

BODY SYSTEMS SERIES

DAY 12: MUSCULAR SYSTEM

The primary job of your muscles is to move the bones of your skeleton, but muscles also enable your heart to beat and they compose the walls of other important hollow organs. The three different types of muscle tissue are skeletal, cardiac and smooth. Skeletal muscle is responsible for body movement, cardiac muscle is involuntary muscle that circulates blood throughout the body and smooth muscle aids in the digestive process.

Keeping our musclular system happy begins with proper nutrition and exercise, but we can use our essential oils and nutritionals to offer additional support.

PanAway is an essential oil blend of Wintergreen, Helichrysum, Clove and Peppermint that is ideal to apply after exercise or any time you have an occasional ache or pain. My husband and I make a roll-on with a carrier oil for easier application. We love how soothing it feels.

BLM stands for bones, ligaments, muscles and comes in a pill or powder form. It combines type II collagen, MSM and glucosamine sulphate as well as Idaho Balsam Fir, Clove and Copaiba essential oils. It supports normal bone and joint health, healthy cell function and encourages fluid movement.

Pure Protein Complete is a comprehensive protein supplement that supports the muscular system, supports the body in building lean muscle, supports energy levels and post-workout muscle recovery. With your choice of Vanilla Spice or Chocolate Deluxe, add a scoop or two along with some fruit and/or nut butter to a smoothie after your workout or as a meal replacement.

And the newest product not listed in the graphic is Cool Azul. This is a sports gel that is formulated with an unprecedented 10 percent (equivalent to 10ml) of pure essential oils in each tube. The oils include: Peppermint, Oregano and Dorado Azul. The base of aloe vera is hydrating to the skin and makes for a convenient application. Apply after physical activity or long days on your feet.
