 YOUNG LIVING

The best essential oils on the planet



What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are aromatic, volatile substances which can contain hundreds of different chemical compounds. They are distilled from botanicals such as flowers, leaves, roots, resin, and seeds using various methods.

Essential oils are highly concentrated and are more powerful than dried herbs. Their light molecular weight allows them to readily penetrate the various membranes found in the body to deliver their benefits.



Why Young Living?

Purity is crucial to realizing the potential health benefits of essential oils, and Young Living’s Seed to Seal commitment to quality is unparalleled.

With over 20 years of experience in producing the highest-quality essential oils, Young Living is considered the industry leader in purity and authenticity. Additionally, Young Living owns more farms on clean land than any other essential oil producer, and uses essential oils and organic methods for pest control.



What is Therapeutic Grade?

All Young Living oils are therapeutic grade, which represents a higher standard of organically-grown plant material, flawless distillation techniques, and strict control of the entire process.

Inferior oils may not only be ineffective, but may also be harmful. Only Young Living is positioned to deliver the safest, highest-quality essential oils available.

 ABOUT US

Meet the founders of Essential Notes

  Amanda McKay



I am a freelance violist with a private violin and viola studio, and I teach elementary and middle school Orchestra full time.

My percussionist husband (Tim) and I started using Young Living Essential Oils almost a year and a half ago to supplement our already pretty natural lifestyle. We have been blown away by how much they have improved our health and quality of life for both us and our two children!

  Joanna Huling



I am a freelance percussionist with a private teaching studio, and my husband John played for many years in the National Symphony. We began using Young Living Essential Oils several months ago, and we have both noticed huge differences in all aspects of our life in such a short time.

I love how powerful and effective they are, yet safe enough to use for our two-year-old daughter. It has been such a relief for me to find natural, simple options to support our health and well-being.
