Hail Essential Oils at Great Prices!!!

Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE essential oils. I have seen miracle after miracle in my own children's lives and in the life of my husband with the use of oils. Most essential oils however are not cheap, in fact they are generally very un-cheap (is that a word?) and their "un-cheapness" is unfortunately prohibitive to many people being able to even try them. I have used many brands but most all of the oils I have purchased have been through Multi-Level-Marketing groups (MLM). These groups (which will remain nameless) while they are fantastic as far as their products go, are WAY too expensive for the average essential oils purchaser. I just bought them anyway as I knew their healing properties and values, but it was a financial burden. I knew in my heart of hearts that there had to be a way for people to access essential oils for their families without all the high prices that MLM companies have to charge due to the up-line and down-lines and membership fees.

I did a lot of research because as I just said, I loved the products of these other companies. I called wholesalers, I called buyers and purchasers and I interviewed these folks as I was converted (well brain washed) that these other MLM companies were the only way I could obtain the oils I so needed for my family. I was also flat out told by the MLM companies that their oils were superior to all other oils. In my research I interviewed four Foot Zonists. Every single one of them told me that all essential oils in the United States are purchased from the same buyers! This astounded me. One zonist said to me "Just how many places to you think you can get Frankincense from anyway?" Good point. I realized at that moment that these MLM companies were not the only places to purchase great products for my family, they just raised their prices so they could pay everyone in the company. I searched and found other sources to get essential oils at prices I felt were very reasonable.

Price was important to me, but so was quality, so I searched for a wholesaler I could purchase oils from that had high quality oils and I found one! I purchased some of their oils and I invited a muscle tester to come to my home. She tested all the oils against the MLM oils. My new oils tested the same or higher than the MLM oils. Our family used these oils for about six months and found that they were just as effective as the oils I purchased from the MLM companies. I had found a wholesaler with great prices and fantastic quality oils. I started a company of my own. My company is called Butterfly Oils. You will be able to purchase my oils on my website very soon. That website will be www.butterflyoils.com. Essential oils have been around since the beginning of time. My slogan is "We Sell Oils that Heal You ---At Prices That Don't Kill You!"

You may not have any experience with essential oils and not know the first thing about them or how to use them or where on the body to put them. You may not even know why they work or how to use them, so for those of you new to oils.... Here is a short Essential Oils 101 Lesson:

So with all this "essential oils" talk...what in the world is an essential oil anyway? Great question....

Well, basically, essential oils are “oils” or “essence” that have been extracted from various species of flowers, fruits, herbs, leaves, seeds, resin, stems, roots, and bark of botanicals. The oils from these natural sources are pure and natural. They are not made from synthetic materials in a laboratory, but extracted from botanical sources. One pound of essential oils can take hundreds of pounds of plant matter. For example, it takes roughly 200 lbs of lavender flowers to product 1 lb of lavender oil. So, there is the loss of using 200 lbs of lavender flowers for other purposes such as soap additives, teas and pillows. Just think about this when you are buying 1 lb of lavender essential oils, you are actually purchasing 200 lbs of “extracted” lavender flowers!

These amazing extracts can be used on the human body to help assist in healing many ailments. Some of the successes that I have experienced in my own family with oils include: bruises, stomach aches, lung issues, asthma, sore throats, head-aches, sunburns, ear infections, cold sores, moles going away, sleep issues, acne, sore muscles, menstrual cramps, and a whole ton more. Essential oils also have also helped with emotional issues such as depression and grieving.

Essential oils can be placed topically on the body just about anywhere except in the eye area. Believe it or not, but there are large pores on your feet so putting a drop or two (or four) on the bottom of the feet is amazingly effective.

Essential oils are very concentrated, and many oils are best used with what is called a "Carrier Oil." Simply put a carrier oil is a vegetable or nut oil that is used to dilute the essential oil or to get it to spread to a wider area upon the body. If you refer to the information above you will recall that one drop of essential oil is extremely concentrated and in some cases (certainly not all) that the oils must be diluted or they could burn the skin especially in young children or babies. Most oils can be used safely without any carrier oils at all. I also sell carrier oils if you need those, but a nice grade of olive oil from your kitchen cupboard is just fine to use.

I want to note also that if you are breast feeding or are pregnant, please check with a local aromatherapist, or our doctor before using essential oils. A holistic doctor will be much more educated on essential oils than a traditional MD.

A few of our all time favorite essential oils and how we use them are:

Peppermint: for stomach aches, sick stomachs, and and energy boost. I also like it for a perfume. I bake with essential oils and I make oatmeal chocolate/mint muffins that are pretty amazing. Peppermint is my secret ingredient. If you all beg me I will share my recipe!

Frankincense: Great for getting rid of unwanted moles (does anyone want a mole?), headaches, depression, and allergies.

Birch: Wonderful for aches and bruises.

Deliverance: This oil is a blend that I sell that is fantastic for getting rid of sore throats, and the hard flu.

Lavender: Where do I begin with Lavender? It is great for sunburns, cold sores, sleep issues, and to calm down your nerves if you are feeling all uptight.

Eucalyptus: If you have a child with asthma, there is no replacement for eucalyptus! It will open up the bronchial tubes and the lungs fast! We have saved many a child from a breathing treatment with this incredible oil.

There are so many more wonderful oils I will talk to you about, but for now this very looong post must end and we will discuss oils again soon. Please note, if you are interested in oils that are high quality with low prices, go ahead and email me and we will get a price list off to you so you can start assisting your family to health! My website is being built and will be up and running soon.
