Lessons in Joy from a Minister's Family

From Mary, in Kansas:


My first exposure to the Young Living oils was during a massage. The massage therapist dripped oil on my back. I had no clue what it was but the aroma was certainly pleasant. A few minutes later I commented to
the massage therapist, “Wow, all of a sudden I feel like STRONG WOMEN!” She responded, “Well, now isn’t that interesting…the name of the oil I just used on your back is Valor!” Coincidence? I don’t know but what I do know is I feel more confident when wearing Valor.

Bonus: Valor smells so wonderful. It’s a great alternative to toxic cologne or perfume. A minister of thirty years, my husband, “Dr. Dave” was a professional lover of people. Ministry was his focus; unfortunately his health was not.We were still very new to the oils in those last months of his life. When my husband (a cologne man from way back) decided he would switch to the Valor oil as his “stinkum” and he insisted on Valor soap in the shower, I knew there had to be something powerful in these oils. Toward the end of his life my daughter and I were pretty convinced he couldn’t have gone through an entire church service without valor on his shoulders, on his wrists and inhaling Valor prior to first service and then again before it was time to preach his second sermon.

He preached up until the Sunday before passing from this life to a far greater life. The Young Living oil, Valor, made an empowering difference for this mighty man of God.

My upline sponsor just happened to forward an email which definitely caught my attention. “Use this mood elevating oil protocol every day!!! This most profound oil protocol keeps me balanced, thinking clearly and completely out of depression” by Vicki Opfer.

I feel very grateful to have found this restoring “oils protocol”. The enclosed oils routine has become a daily habit. For adrenal support I have added to my routine……a drop or two of Myrtle on the big toes.

Oil protocol (taught by Gary Young in a class in Wyoming, 1994):


VALOR - bottoms of the feet, a single drop on one wrist and hold the other wrist to it for a few moments to balance the entire system!


HARMONY - a single drop over the solar plexus area


JOY - a single drop over the heart


WHITE ANGELICA - a single drop in one hand, rub hands together, and brush over the head, face, chest, shoulders, down the body, right over the clothes as though applying an angelic shield.

Inspiration for “Good grief”:


My reflexologist recently mentioned she believed the oil Inspiration “is good for grief.” She said, “The only way I can describe it is that it’s inspiring. I just feel down right inspired when I take big whiff!” My friend is correct; the Young Living oil Inspiration is not only uplifting I have found it to be “down right inspiring!”
