Be sure to check out my Essential Oil Resource page to learn how to use essential oils.

*From now until the end of February, I’m offering a free 15 mL bottle of Lemon or Wild Orange Essential Oil (your choice) to anyone who gets a Family Physician Enrollment kit or higher.

Simplify Your Wellness

Over the last few years, I’ve learned a lot about herbs and nutrition and how to use them to treat and prevent illness. What I didn’t know much about was essential oils. Until now.

For the last year, I’ve been using pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils to treat and prevent illness in my home. I love that they’re so effective and my favorite part? I can store all of them in a small box that fits nicely on my bathroom counter (I use them so much they need to be out in the open). It’s so simple.

Now, if you’d like to learn more about essential oils and how to use them, hop over to my Essential Oil resource page. This page will tell you about which essential oils I use and why.

Why I use doTERRA

I’m a frugal mama, always on the look out for a good deal. However, there are some things I’m willing to pay more for because of high-quality. One of those is pure, therapeutic-grade essential oils. doTERRA is a company that I stumbled upon a year ago and I’ve fallen in love with their products. Why?

Simplicity

My daily routine consists of applying essential oils, eating nourishing foods, taking supplements, drinking plenty of water and getting plenty of sleep. The oils have been so helpful for lowering stress, treating acute problems and preventing illness. I’ve also noticed that when we do get sick, we recover much faster.

Budget-friendliness

Our health insurance is free through my husband’s work, but we don’t use it. Instead, we practice preventative healthcare and have a budgeted amount each month that we use as our “healthcare premiums.” This includes doTERRA products, fermented cod liver oil, kids’ vitamins and chiropractic care.

The most we pay in a month is $200, but it’s usually around $115. That’s much less than we used to pay before we became more intentional about our healthcare. Becoming a doTERRA Independent Product Consultant also allows me to get doTERRA products at 25% off retail. 

Free oils

When I signed up as a consultant, I earned about $50 in free product just by choosing an enrollment kit. I also joined the Loyalty Rewards Program, which automatically ships my doTERRA products. (Each month, I choose the items I need and the day I want them delivered).

Every month, there’s an oil of the month that you get free if you’re order is at least 125 PV. My typical LRP order is 100 PV, but sometimes I need more oils. I’ve earned 8 free bottles of oil so far, including 2 bottles of frankincense thanks to the Oil of the Month Program. I also earn a percentage of my LRP order back in points. To date, I’ve earned over $200 in free product.

How to Join and Save

Register

To get your 25% discount on all doTERRA products, follow this link, choose the Independent Product Consultant option and start filling out the form.

Choose a kit

You can just get the $35 enrollment kit (plus shipping), but I don’t recommend doing that. Instead, I suggest you choose an enrollment kit with products (save up if need be!). Why? Because not only do get to try the oils, but you get free ones, too. Win!

I joined with the Family Wellness Kit.  If I could do it over again, I would have chosen the Home Essential Kit or Natural Solutions Kit so I could have more oils.

Join the Loyalty Rewards Program

If you start using these oils when you get them, you will run out. Fast. They’re so good and can be used all over your house. Plus, you’ll probably want to try other oils as well. Each month, I use this optional program for: replacing oils, trying new oils, using the Lifelong Vitality pack, and to earn free products. 

* If you’re interested in using doTERRA to build a business, email me at nina@shalommama.com after signing up. You’ll get free access to training calls and business coaching.

My experience

I started using the essential oils and noticed that they were more potent than my other oils. doTERRA’s melaleuca oil (tea tree) affected a rash that I had almost immediately, something that my other tea tree oil didn’t do. And that was only the first difference. Time after time, I noticed great results from my oils. Here are some of my stories:

My son complained of a bad earache and couldn’t sleep. I rubbed melaleuca oil in front of and behind his ear. He woke up the next day thrilled that his ear didn’t hurt at all.

My stomach hurt pretty bad after eating something that didn’t agree with me. I put a drop of DigestZen under my tongue and licked it. I felt better within 10 minutes.

Our son crawled into our bed and tossed and turned for hours. Finally, my husband got up, grabbed some lavender essential oil and applied to his feet, my feet and our son’s feet. We fell asleep quickly and slept well for the rest of the night.

We were visiting my friend and she was stung by a bee. I asked if she still had the frankincense oil I had given her and she ran inside and put it on her sting. It soothed the site immediately. Ten minutes later, she said it didn’t feel like she had been stung at all.

Our kids woke up coughing one morning and they sounded pretty bad. I diluted some Breathe essential oil in a tablespoon of coconut oil and rubbed it on their chests. The coughing stopped almost immediately.

These are just a few of the ways these essential oils have helped my family.

Enjoy your oils!
