Pregnancy-Using Essential Oils to Avoid Potential Challenges

Pregnancy is a time to celebrate YOUR life and the life that you are bringing into the world. It is a time of great joy . . . but often the nagging fears and the aches and pains that you experience dim the brightness of this period. Isn’t it wonderful to know that there is something totally natural and safe that you can do? Pure therapeutic-grade essential oils have been used for thousands of years and, more recently, the Young Living essential oils and products have been used by thousands of women with no ill effects.

In her book, “Clinical Aromatherapy: Essential Oils in Practice”, Jane Buckle, PhD, RN, states “There are no records of abnormal fetuses or aborted fetuses due to the normal use of essential oils either by inhalation or topical application, There are no records of a few drops of essential oils taken by mouth causing any problem either.”

So RELAX . . . and ENJOY this beautiful time of wonder and anticipation . . . Apply some BELIEVE – a beautiful blend of balsam fir, frankincense, and rosewood – and breathe in the beauty of this very special time.

For those occasional challenges you may try following . . .
