Lemon

 Lemon's many applications make it one of the most useful essential oils  to have on hand.

A testimony from Karen:
 "I woke up to a very quiet voice calling "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy." My  littlest was in the bathroom sick. I got her to the couch where she was  rolling around complaining of tummy pain. These are the moments that I  really love what YL has brought to our family. I ran to my natural  medicine cupboard, grabbed the tarragon, juniper, anise, ginger,fennel,  patchouli, peppermint, lemongrass and liberally massaged into her  stomach. 5 minutes later, no pain and little girl is now sleeping in her  bed.
 

Is it magic? I think so. Going into the SCIENCE of how  these plants work and effect our brains and every single cell is beyond  what I can comprehend in a busy day, beyond what I can explain here in  our community, but you could look up the science. It's fascinating."

Got boys? Or men? Play sports? Or maybe you have someone you love who  maybe forgets about the leftover lunch in their backpack... Purification  is my oil of choice to get rid of stink in any and all situations. It  helps to neutralize odors and enhance the air in the home.
