Emotional Aromatherapy with doTERRA Essential Oils

One of my absolute favourite ways to use our doTERRA Essential Oils is with our (multiple) diffusers. Whether at home or at the office I will typically have it running! I even now have one for my van ;)

doTERRA created this beautiful emotions wheel with the brand new Emotional Aromatherapy Blends they announced in October 2015!  I have added in our other blends which are the core mood management blends doTERRA has.

As you look around the wheel you can see various feelings you may have, as you look at the feeling you can then see which blend may best support your body in working through that feeling.

One of the oils which is not on this wheel and is a single oil is one of my absolute favourites – Wild Orange! This oil is incredibly powerful for invigorating someone or calming anxious or worried feelings! A must have in my mind for supporting emotional health!

Have you ever wondered why a simple smell can provoke a strong emotion or trigger a specific memory? I know the smell of fresh homemade bread reminds me of my sweet mother. The dōTERRA Emotional Aromatherapy Kit™ is the perfect example of this, and here’s why it works so well:

Essential oils are simply a mixture of volatile aromatic compounds. These compounds are able to interact with the olfactory (smell) receptors in the nose. Our sense of smell can have a profound effect on our emotions, and simply inhaling the aroma can elicit an emotional response. The smell receptors located on the upper surface of the nasal cavity make direct links with the limbic system of the brain, where the scent is perceived and processed.

CANADA DAY NEWS |Support The Canadian Mental Health Association with doTERRA Essential Oils

On this beautiful Canada Day I have some exciting news to share!!!

HAPPY CANADA DAY.png

Mental health affects each and every one of us in our daily lives. If we are feeling stressed or anxious, worried or upset this affects our overall mental health. Especially if these feelings are pushed aside rather than effectively dealing with them.

I have personally been touched by the ill effects of mental health and am happy to say that Ive come out a MUCH stronger and more confident woman, mama and wife. With having PCOS, Hypothyroidism and Endometriosis these invisible illnesses can wreak havoc on a woman’s hormones, body and emotions in a very loathsome way.

My journey to make a difference with mental health began a few months ago when I teamed up with students from a local university in Kitchener Waterloo with their Pass Kits. I provided doTERRA Wild Orange samples for them to include within the kits. When I first read about this initiative I was drawn to it and wanted to reach out and do more! This began my path to truly make a difference where I can with mental health…

So… my next step was to reach out to the Canadian Mental Health Association which has local offices within my home town and many surrounding towns as well as across Canada!

I am SO incredibly excited about this opportunity!!!

Ive teamed up with the Canadian Mental Health Association to raise funds for mental health research and programs!!!

For the months of July and August for every single person who places their first order with me for doTERRA products at wholesale pricing or places a retail order on my website I am personally donating 10% of the product value of the purchase!!! Although this will be supporting the Canadian Mental Health Association I am committed to donating 10% of ALL first time wholesale or retail orders all over the world!!!

My goal for these two months is to raise $500 to donate!

Who is ready to help bring more awareness, support and education for mental health!? I am  SO excited to have you on this journey with me!

How do you get started?

Motivate and Cheer

The doTERRA Essential Oils are incredibly potent and powerful. In addition to diffusing the oils in your home to uplift the mood, naturally scent and cleanse the air, many doTERRA Essential Oils are recognized as a natural health product within Canada. Many are used in aromatherapy as a nervine and calmative. They are also used in aromatherapy as a carminative and antipasmodic for symptomatic relief of digestive support. The oils can also be used to help relieve colds and coughs, minor skin irritation, relieve cuts, bruises, burns, acne,  relieve join and muscle pain and more!

The essential oils I represent are 100% natural, pure and potent with absolutely no fillers, chemicals or any type of toxins within them which would be harmful or cause build up in your body.

 

 

“Meat” Diffuser Blend| Emotional Cleansing

Tonight the kids requested tacos for supper!

I LOVE any meal that feels like appetizers and tacos are one of our favs!!!

So I began cooking up the meat and beans, when the meat was just about done I added in 1 drop of Oregano, 2 drops of Thyme and 2 drops of Cumin!

IMG_20160627_184147.jpg

While dinner was cooking my son came in and took a great big whiff of the ground beef cooking…

“Mom I want these meat oils in my diffuser tonight!!! Mmmm they smell soooo good!”

I love the smell of these oils as well, did I think he was joking – of course… was he joking… NOPE!

Bedtime came and I asked him to choose oils for the diffuser… His choices…  Cumin, Oregano and Thyme! They actually do smell really good together ;)

I also love the emotions behind each of the oils and the curious mother in me had to look them up!

Cumin can help clear emotional “baggage” you may be holding onto. It was used ritually for internal protection and to protect one’s home.
(https://doterra.com/US/en/p/cumin-oil)

Oregano is The Oil of Humility & Non-Attachment.

Oregano cuts through the fluff of life and teaches individuals to do the same. It removes blocks, clears negativity and cuts away negative attachments. Positive properties: Humility, non-attachment, teachable, flexible, willingness to be wrong and devoted.
(page 51 of Emotions and Essential Oils; Fourth Edition 2015)

Thyme is The Oil of Releasing and Forgiving.

Thyme is one of the most powerful cleansers of the emotional body and assists in addressing trapped feelings which have been buried for a long time. Positive properties: Forgiving, tolerant, emotional release, patient, open-hearted and understanding.
(page 60 of Emotions and Essential Oils; Fourth Edition 2015)

Our own body’s intuition is pretty amazing, even if my kid’s room smells like “meat” I love the emotional cleansing that he is experiencing with the oils in his diffuser tonight. <3

 

 

Building a doTERRA Business | The basics with Pam

What does it mean to be a doTERRA Wellness Advocate and Build a Business?

As many do with doTERRA, I began as a User. I wanted to learn about the products and the basics of ‘what are essential oils’.

I soon fell in love having committed to truly giving the oils a fair shot. This meant for me, a major adjustment and one that affected me emotionally and physically. They worked! It was possibly a month of dealing with some major pain, discomfort and overall all unhappy I was feeling. However, I was able to work through all of this and come out stronger!

What I love most about this opportunity is I have chosen something natural, literally taking things back to the basics, teaching my kids there is a better way!

doTERRA Business Advantages I began to truly feel the difference they were making. This is when I chose to begin sharing with others. When I made this choice, I was already placing a 100PV order every month because we diffuse daily, use the oils for everything, have laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, supplements each and every single month and some of the other health and beauty doTERRA has with their beautiful oils!

‎To earn with doTERRA you must place a 100PV order each month to be paid. As we are using the doTERRA Oils and products which contain the oils daily our monthly order is at least 125PV – which means I also qualify for the free product of the month! My monthly order is called my LRP (Loyalty Rewards Product) Order.

doTERRA rewards all those who have a monthly autoship with points which can be redeemed for free product PLUS we receive our shipping back in points! So for my 125PV order I receive 35.7 back in points to use for free products! With a 100PV order I would receive 30PV back~!

You can see how this dramatically reduces the cost of everything you are purchasing each month! Learn more about the LRP Program in my blog post HERE! DoTERRA Has a few ways to earn with them.

    1. Retail purchases people make on your personal website is 25%.
    1. Unilevel commissions which get higher as the levels go deeper‎. So someone you have on level 2 is 2% whereas someone on level 7 you receive 7% for.  Depending on your rank with doTERRA will depend on which earning level you are at.

If you have someone who is a user, however places a 100PV order every month, they will earn income on anyone below them.

If this person has a builder under them who is extremely motivated and reaches the rank of Premier. Unless this user has other ‘legs’ with leaders under them, the highest rank they will ever reach is Elite.

So the builder under the user will always rank advance and grow reaching higher income levels than the user would because they are not designing their team and building with leaders strategically placed under them.

This is sometimes where someone suddenly realizes the financial benefits of doTERRA.

If I enrolled Erin and she simply wants to use the products – she is a user. She loves them and is now using the oils daily in the diffuser and other various reasons, shampoo, conditioner, ‎supplements, facial care, digestive support etc.

I also enrolled Chris who like me realized the success of the products and the potential of earning an income on a journey of becoming financially free.

When enrolled I placed Erin and then Chris below her.

Chris builds up a business with two executive legs and overall volume of 5000.

Chris is under Erin.

Erin has only Chris under her and an over all volume of 5200OV (including Erin’s volume from that month). Erin has Premier volume, however does not have what is required ‎for that rank. So Erin is paid out as an Elite.

Erin realizes she’s missing out and can also benefit from this financial benefit and share the love with others whose own lives can be enriched and healthier emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Erin begins sharing with others and now has two more leaders under her. As she now works up through the ranks her income grows as well!

Compensation_Plan_Flyer

  1. Fast start 20% bonus. This is what you would receive for everyone who has a doTERRA Membership (enrollment) with you.

What this fast start bonus is for is you committing to helping this person or family learn and become empowered within their own home. This is me promising to you that I want to help you, I want to share how these oils an products have empowered us in our home and our overall Wellness! I personally use a large portion of my fast start to empower those who choose to host a class with me. With this commitment from them to me, I want to share my appreciation and also help in their growth! For me I love helping them get going!

For everyone who is on my team I make sure I am available via phone, email, Facebook or text. The fast start is exactly that, to help you get moving with sharing and empowering others.

The fast start is for purchases in the first 60 days. After 60 days the unilevel commission will begin.

  1. Power of three.

If someone has 3 people under them who all place orders every month for 100PV (min.) and the total team volume is 600PV, they would get a $50‎ bonus. If these three people also had three people under them the same, the first person would get $250 and the next person $50. As they go down the levels each would benefit from a higher bonus up to $1500. This way is not typically how teams are built or where the full earning potential comes from. It’s much more challenging to reach these levels unless someone was blessed to find three motivated and inspired leaders who want to jump in on the journey! When this happens there is a stronger potential to earn these bonuses each and every month!

  1. Leadership Levels Bonus.

This is paid out when you hit Silver level and above.

What is absolutely fascinating about this model is doTERRA invests in their people who are committed to sharing the physical, emotional and spiritual benefits with others. Anyone on any level can set and reach their own goals. The growth of someone I enroll is not limited to my own success. We all work together and as well on our own specific individual goals!

The very best way to earn with doTERRA is the personal development journey that someone experiences. My life has truly changed, its opened up in so many ways and everyday I am so very thankful. One of my mentors describes doTERRA as a personal development business wrapped up in an essential oil business ;) . For me this has enriched my life in all areas – with my husband, kids, family, friends, at work, meeting new people…

Curious about learning more… have a look at this Build Guide and then contact me!

Please note: Wellness Advocate ‘s are independent from doTERRA International  so all income tax and deductions will be calculated by your own accountant for income tax purposes. It’s completely up to the Wellness Advocate to keep track of their own expenses and income as required.

doTERRA Loyalty Rewards Program

Hello to all my oily lovers!

What is the Loyalty Rewards Program?

This optional program is designed to reward you for purchasing monthly with doTERRA. So for example if you make a purchase of 100PV (product value) you would receive 10-30PV back in points! These points are used just like dollars to purchase products! Ive literally built up my collection with points!!!

This program is available to EVERYONE who is enjoying wholesale pricing!

Initially I was nervous about the program having to buy each month… however what is so fabulous is all you need to order is 1PV to retain your points level. So as long as you order something each month on your auto ship you retain your points level of 10-30%.

LRP.png

 

doTERRA Loyalty Rewards Program?

With the LRP this is the BEST way to purchase from doTERRA.

You will receive 10-30% of your order back in points. PLUS you also get your shipping back on all your LRP orders! So if shipping is $12 – you get 12 points.

Some suggestions…

If you truly do not “need” anything… if you want to keep your points you have accumulated. Simply place an order for something small. For example…

  1. Lip Balm – 4PV
  2. Tooth Paste – 5PV
  3. Do you know someone who might enjoy trying Lemon or Wild Orange? 11PV
  4. Bar of soap
  5. ProBiotics

These are just a few suggestions of ways you can continue earning your LRP Points even when you really don’t “need” anything.

If you would like to earn back points – you do so when your order is 50PV (product value) or above. The points will then be deposited in your account the middle of the month following.

We personally place an LRP order monthly

  • oils
  • lotion
  • hair care products
  • facial care products
  • laundry detergent
  • cleaner concentrate & soap
  • adults and kids supplements
  • soap and body wash

The beautiful thing about all of these products is they are made with these beautiful oils from doTERRA!

Here are some helpful links for the Loyalty Rewards Program

doTERRA Spearmint & Tangerine | Essential Oil Diffuser Blend

When I first received these beautiful oils last summer we made a diffuser blend of Spearmint and Tangerine… Its like summer sunshine in the house!!!

Spearmint is known of The Oil of Confident Speech. The positive emotional properties are confidence, articulate speech, clarity and courage.

Tangerine is known of The Oil of Cheer and Creativity. The positive emotional properties are cheerful, fun, abundantly creative, spontaneous, enjoying life, lighthearted, optimistic.

These oils together in the diffuser promote clarity, confidence, cheer and joyfulness. One of the reasons I simply love diffusing oils is I can naturally scent my home while also providing therapeutic benefits to my entire family.

Click on the images below to learn more about these two beautiful oils! I currently have them going in our diffuser this morning, a beautiful blend to wake up to ;)

What is a doTERRA Wellness Advocate?

Ive had many asking me what it means to be a Wellness Advocate, especially those who simply want to enjoy using the products.

There are three types of people who use doTERRA.

  1. User
  2. Sharer
  3. Builder

These visuals are much easier for people. Being a Wellness Advocate means you have access to wholesale pricing and the choice to share with others or build your own business.

3-pathways-of-doterra-enrollmentuserssharersbuilders1

For me I began as a user, after 5 months of using the products I began sharing with others, after another 6 months I decided I wanted to build and share with everyone and anyone! My decision was personally based on my use of the products, how my body and emotions were reacting and the impact on my children’s lives as well.

doTERRA is different, they have a model which is similar to most multi-level marketing companies, however they encourage personal growth with each and every single person who is a user, sharer and builder with doTERRA through product education, scientific findings, research and personal use.

380a4c14dc27bff56c7314d06c8b7f9e

Although the design does resemble a “pyramid” the opportunity is there for anyone to reach and exceed their own goals including out ranking their upline mentor! The structure is completely unique in this way!

doTERRA has chosen to invest in their members who want to take the opportunity to share with others. Just the other night I met with a great new friend, she has been interested in the oils, has experienced some of them, but wanted to take the time to sit down together to talk and experience more!

Every single oil that my friend chose for her first order, were not in a kit – however they were oils that her body was drawn to. When she opened the bottle she said “OMG I love it”! We then looked up each individual oil and found every single one of the oils she chose were ones that would help support her body emotionally and physically with what her body is currently experiencing. Amazing right!

So the compensation that we as building Wellness Advocates receive from doTERRA is compensating us for our time to not only spend to help others experience the oils and see for themselves what they are drawn to and which ones may suit them best, providing on going support to that person with their oils and they are also compensating for the time we invest weekly into personal development, product education, business training etc!

I feel completely blessed to have these oils in my life and for me it was an easy decision to begin sharing and building. If they’ve made this significant of a change in my life, I know they will also do the same for you!

Whether you are wanting to be a user, sharer or builder – I am so thankful to have met you and look forward to being on this journey with you! If you would like to receive more information about doTERRA Essential Oils or how to get a wholesale account please connect with me here and we can set up a time to meet in person, chat on the phone and I can share information with you via email. The best part of doTERRA is you are never alone <3.

Having grown up in a family business dedicated to home comfort and an education in business management, having my own branch of ‘home comfort’ in my life such as doTERRA is like the icing on my cake. Entrepreneurship comes naturally, its in my blood ;) My dream has always been to travel and photograph the world with my family, doTERRA is providing me this amazing opportunity by connecting me with people from all over the world. So wherever you are, no matter the distance whether you are a user, sharer or builder I am dedicated and passionate about natural home comfort and overall well-being and together we will move mountains!

 

Natural First Aid Options | doTERRA Essential Oils

As many of you know I have 3 invisible illnesses. All of which affect my hormones in some way. This is why its very important for me to watch what I use in my home and on my body. For many years I was in denial, secretly hoping it would just go away… it doesn’t go away. My illnesses are life long and life altering. Fortunately this has been life altering for me in a very big and awesome way.

Prior to making these life altering changes I found myself always sick, extremely unmotivated, easily exhausted and feeling completely off. What I have learned is that in many of the products we use each and everyday, are toxins. These toxins wreck havoc on a healthy body and in someone’s body like mine they completely tear it apart!

One of the ways we use Essential Oils is for our first aid needs at home. This includes things like :

  • cough
  • cold
  • cuts
  • bruises
  • skin irriations
  • acne
  • boils
  • dermatitis
  • headache
  • digestive discomfort
  • burns
  • join and muscle pain
  • sprains
  • strains
  • calming

Many products on the market which are advertised to aid with these above issues contain a form of petroleum. This is known as a hormone disruptor and can affect the balance in your body. For those of you like me with a Thyroid illness, Endometriosis and PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) these disruptors contribute to our discomfort and overall well being.

With the use of all natural plant based medicine like essential oils we can naturally attend to any of these above issues without introducing toxins to our system, thus not affecting our hormones negatively. With simply 1-2 drops per use these oils will become a reliable natural option in your home for many years to come!

The doTERRA Essential Oils which can be used for the above issues are:

  • Bergamot
  • Cardamom
  • Clary Sage
  • Cypress
  • Ginger
  • Grapefruit
  • Helichrysum
  • Juniper Berry
  • Lavender
  • Lemon
  • Lime
  • Myrrh
  • Patchouli
  • Peppermint
  • Sandalwood
  • Tea Tree (Melaleuca)

In our home Tea Tree Oil is one we regularly reach for!
2015 Winter Bathroom Cabinet

If you would like to experience the oils in your own home please contact me, I would love to share in this journey with you for natural health and well-being!
