Abundance Oil and EFT – Magnet For Abundance and Success

Melodie Kantner — Sat, 03 Mar 2012 18:11:41 +0000

The Law of Attraction is an amazing energy. It is always at work. We attract whatever matches the energy or vibrations we are sending out or radiating. If we have a fearful energy because we are listening to the news and hearing about how bad the economy is, we will attract negative things. It becomes more difficult to attract the abundance we want in our life.

I have been using Abundance oil for over 15 years. It was the first Young Living oil I used and it is the reason I am with Young Living Essential Oils today.

Abundance oil raises your energy to a more attracting energy. It also is very mood uplifting. Abundance is a wonderful oil to enhance the Law of Attraction. EFT is also a powerful tool to use along with the law of attraction. Put EFT and Abundance oil together and you have a really powerful tool to attract abundance.

Daily EFT can really set the tone for your abundance energy as you set about to do the daily tasks in your business. Not only does EFT help remove fears but it also enhances the law of attraction.

If you are in any kind of business, you need to have a good energy that attracts business. This good energy is needed in all aspects of our life, not just business. We can be abundant in all kinds of ways. When we have a good positive energy, we have a better mood and things just seem to work better. We have more fun in our life. Abundance overflows into all areas of our life.

The EFT tapping session in the video below is full of positive affirmations around attracting abundance. Put a couple drops of Abundance oil blend on your fingertips and begin tapping.

Try Stress Away Roll-On To Reduce Emotional Eating

Melodie Kantner — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 18:58:01 +0000

With all the stress we face every day we can easily find ourselves feeling bad and reaching for a snack. Do you ever find yourself falling into a habit of emotional eating to deal with the stress?

I learned something interesting this morning that helped make a connection in my brain. I happened to be listening to the Today Show. There was a segment on how your personality could contribute to weight gain. They mentioned how stress raises cortisol levels. We knew that but here’s the thing I didn’t realize: When your cortisol level is high, you start craving carbs.

Here’s another interesting thing . . .

Did you know that eating sugar and starchy carbs raise your cortisol levels even higher?
So as cortisol goes up, it increases carb cravings, and after indulging in starchy or sugary carbs, guess what else follows suit with it? Depression. This contributes to the vicious cycle of emotional eating.

This information really got me excited. Recently I learned that Young Living’s Stress Away Roll-On was especially useful to help with stress related eating. I have been using Stress Away in the afternoons and evenings ever since I learned about that. I have noticed that, when I use Stress Away I have a much easier time resisting the urge to have a snack. Now hearing that bit about cortisol levels this morning really reinforced my intent to keep using Stress Away.

I’m enjoying a cup of Slique tea and rolling on a bit of Young Living’s Stress Away as I write this blog post. It has been a strangely stress filled day today and I am thankful for these new products from Young Living. Have you tried the Slique Tea? Oh MY!! I love the taste. It’s yummy!

Acceptance Oil and EFT With Weight Loss

Melodie Kantner — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 22:55:41 +0000

You attract more of whatever you focus on with emotion. If you spend a lot of time thinking and feeling stress about things you don’t like about yourself, you actually create a block to changing it.

This is where Young Living’s essential oil blend Acceptance can be helpful. Acceptance oil blend helps you accept things as they are right now.

I used to feel I didn’t want to accept myself the way I am because I have pounds to lose and I felt that if I accepted myself as I am, that would make me not want to release the excess weight. So I fought it all the way but what I didn’t realize is that when I put all that negative energy into something I hate, I actually make it harder than ever to release the weight.

The subconscious is a funny thing. When you can accept things as they are, you have a more peaceful approach to things you intend to change. The emotional blocks disappear. This is an issue I have struggled with because it is easy to slip back into negative emotion over things I don’t like. It is also the reason I made up and EFT tapping sessions on this very issue.

The EFT Sessions below were originally part of the 30 Day Self Esteem Challenge on on my other blog. I use Acceptance oil blend for both of these EFT tapping sessions but you could also use other oils in rotation. I also use Release oil blend for the tapping session on Releasing Negative Self-Image.

I recommend doing these sessions multiple times. It can be a deep seated emotional issue and may take several rounds of EFT.

Even though I can’t stop procrastinating, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.
Even though I don’t feel like exercising, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.
Even though I don’t feel like exercising, deeply and completely love and accept myself.

Using Motivation Essential Oil Blend With EFT

Melodie Kantner — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 23:36:27 +0000

Motivation oil blend is another one of my favorites. Just as the name implies, it energizes and motivates. I love this oil whenever I am having trouble getting motivated to do any task.

Motivation oil is an absolute MUST before I exercise. It helps me get started but it also helps me stick with the exercise longer. This is one I admit I need to use more for exercise. I tend to get focused on other projects and exercise is not always my priority.

I like to put motivation on my throat area. I put just a drop on my finger, then rub it in the center.

Motivation oil is AWESOME with EFT. Just add 2 drops to your fingertips before you begin tapping the points.

Valor Essential Oil and EFT In The Face Of Fear

Melodie Kantner — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 03:43:31 +0000

There are some things that really can be scary and uncomfortable. When you need a shot of courage, why not try Valor essential oil with a bit of EFT. Valor, as the name implies, is an oil blend that is very strengthening emotionally. It is the oil to use when you need a shot of courage.

Valor is a wonderful oil for use with Emotional Freedom Techniques. I love Valor when I am facing something that makes me feel uncomfortable or afraid. Most definitely whenever you are stepping out of your comfort zone. This is the oil that helps you relax about it.

It has spruce, rosewood and frankincense in it. Tree oils seem especially grounding emotionally.
An added bonus is that Valor also smells awesome.

There are lots of fears that you can use this on. Here is an example of an EFT Session on fear of public speaking:

Even though I am terrified to speak in front of people, I deeply and completely accept myself.

Even though I can feel my breathing constrict and my heart is pounding, I deeply and completely love and accept myself anyway, without judgement.

Even though I can’t imagine standing in front of a group, I’m afraid to speak. I might say something stupid and they all see it, I deeply and completely love and accept myself anyway.”

Tapping all the other points, first a round of negative tapping:
“I am afraid to speak up in front of others in case I make a mistake and they laugh at me or ridicule me.”

Then one round of positive tapping:
“I comfortably and easily speak up for myself in a confident manner.”

Use the same formula for other things you have fear of. Just replace public speaking with whatever the fear is and express the feelings.

Try using Valor along with the EFT session below.

Using Release Essential Oil Blend With Emotional Freedom Techiques

Melodie Kantner — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 23:42:23 +0000

I use Emotional Freedom Techniques every day. I really love it for clearing all kinds of issues that would hold me back. I have cleared lots of fears including a fear of flying. I have released anger and relieved stress and anxiety and a bunch of other negative emotions.

I always add essential oils to EFT sessions to enhance the process. Young Living has several wonderful essential oil blends that work well with emotional issues. They are very mood uplifting and very powerful when dealing with emotional issues.

One of my favorite oils to use with Emotional Freedom Techniques is Release essential oil blend.

Release oil blend combines uplifting, calming oils that stimulate a sense of peace and emotional well-being, which in turn facilitates the ability to release anger and frustration. Release promotes harmony and balance in the mind and body, and helps eliminate the adverse effects of repressed emotions on health and wellness. Place three to four drops of Release oil blend over the liver or on the sternum for a grounding effect, and feel increased emotional strength as you let go of the past once and for all.

I have had a couple people tell me that they feel the urge to talk and unload about whatever is bothering them whenever they use Release oil. This just seems like an obvious choice when doing EFT. It is a great one for releasing negative emotions but especially anger.

How to Use Release Essential Oil With EFT:

Apply 1 – 3 drops of Release oil on your fingertips, then tap on the Karate Chop Point with the oiled up fingertips. As you are tapping the EFT Points, you will have enough remaining oil to carry to all the other points.

I really love using Release oil for the “Tap While You Gripe” technique. Just tap and talk until you have unloaded all the negative feelings. It’s so liberating.

Try Release oil blend with the EFT session below on releasing negative feelings you feel about yourself.

This blend is rich in flavonoids, a dietary compound generally associated with helping maintain certain normal, healthy body functions. It also contains polyhpheols, also known as catechins, which may be useful as part of a guilt-free weight-management regimen when combined with a healthy diet and physical activity.

Slique Tea contains Arabian Frankincense powder an exclusive ingredient from Young Living’s
distillery in Salalah, Oman also.

We talked about the essential oils having enzymes, well frankincense is digesting and increasing
the oxygen levels in the body while moving the toxins out. Obesity is linked to cancer so with
the frankincense it is protecting our body while it works on the brain to reprogram.
And remember Frankincense was given to Jesus to protect him from all ills..
What a powerful combination we have in this tea.

Pure Vanilla Essential oil has 80-90% eugenol which has a calming effect on the brain, numbing
your cravings. Also numbs the nerves and gives relief from anxiety, anger, restlessness etc.

source of dietary fiber. It is also known to be one of the highest dietary sources of
magnesium, flavonoids, (which support the body’s ability to maintain certain healthy functions)
and polyphenols. It also has a high source of Vitamin C.

Amazonian Cacao is processed at a low temperature of 140 degrees while other cocoa is processed at 240-260 degrees killing all the antioxidants in it.
Cacao has been enjoyed for its healthful and invigorating properties in South American cultures
for thousands of years.

Oolong tea caffeine benefits
Caffeine occurs naturally in a large number of plants and the Oolong Tea
has low doses of caffeine and can provide a wide range of benefits. It increases
alertness stimulates metabolism and helps to improve our mood. Therefore oolong tea is
considered to be a good source of caffeine.

With all these great ingredients we have and awesome tea to support the body for all conditions.

the University of Oklahoma. Dr. Lin also conducts ground-breaking research on essential
oils and other natural treatments.

Along with Marc Schreuder, Director of Product Formulation at Young Living

Went searching for the best tea in the word. It took them a long time because they
had to travel all over and taste the teas. After drinking a lot of tea Dr. Lin said he got
tea drunk. All teas are different and taste different. $50 millions of dollars has been
spent in research and the research is still on going .

He said the higher up in the mountains you find the best tea because it absorbs more moisture
making it taste better but it cost more to harvest it . There are tea completions and Jade Oolong
tea won first prize. It cost $7,000.00 per kilo and it has won 121 times so we are getting the best.

We want to thank Young Living for all the research they do in making sure we do get the
best!!!!! It has taken 3 Long years to find the best tea and now we have it. Thank you Gary!!

Thriving In Today’s Economy With Abundance Oil and EFT

Melodie Kantner — Sun, 17 Jul 2011 23:22:03 +0000

Abundance oil blend is my favorite oil of all Young Living’s oils. Abundance oil blend is the reason I am a distributor with Young Living Essential Oils.

Abundance oil lifted me out of severe depression within minutes of applying it. It is an oil blend that seems to help when depression is related to money issues, which seems to be something a lot of people are dealing with these days because of the economy the way it is.

Not only do I love Abundance oil blend for its mood uplifting properties, but I love the way Abundance oil blend attracts abundance. I have seen it over and over in my life and especially in my business.

Abundance oil is one that we really need, especially in the times we are living in with the economic situation the way it is.

If you are familiar with the Law of Attraction, you know that what you focus on you attract more of. When you worry and stress over the economy, you hinder the abundant energy you have in your body. That makes it almost impossible to build a business or attract any kind of abundance.

I have seen the Law of Attraction working from both sides. I see it today in my prosperous business but years ago, I went through a time where I was desperate to generate enough income to just make ends meet. That is actually the cause of the severe depression I was having before someone who knew I was depressed, cared enough to share Abundance oil with me.

That was a time of struggle financially. I was in a sales job with a home cleaning system where I had to visit people’s home to demonstrate the cleaner and only got paid when I sold one. It seemed as though I couldn’t sell one if my life depended on it. Actually, my financial life did depend on it.

The owner of the company came with me on some presentations to see what I was doing wrong. When we were leaving a home presentation, she said, “I don’t understand why you aren’t selling anything, you are really good!”

I didn’t understand the Law of Attraction back than but I do today. The reason I couldn’t make any sales is because I had an energy vibration of desperation. I desperately needed a sale.

I was radiating that desperate energy. People could feel it. They didn’t realize it and I didn’t realize I was affecting people with my desperate energy.

Here is another example – Around that same time my husband and I were traveling and doing art shows for our jewelry designs. Mark, my husband, made flameworked glass beads and I did copper enamel designs. We put them together with gemstones and made beautiful works of wearable art.

We won several best of show awards with our designs and even drew crowds with Mark demonstrating glass bead making over a flame, but making enough money to create a living was a real struggle. We would often just cover show expenses. People would come in and rave about how beautiful our designs were and then just leave.

Oh how I wish I had known about Abundance oil back then! Well, today I am so very grateful for Abundance oil blend. It is, hands down, my favorite oil. I use it EVERY DAY. By using Abundance oil, I become like a magnet attracting abundance. I would never consider touching anything business related without using Abundance oil first.

Abundance is a blend that raises your energetic vibration to attract greater prosperity into your life. It is an oil blend that is “created to enhance the frequency of the harmonic magnetic energy field that surrounds us. This higher frequency creates the “law of attraction,” a harmonic magnetic energy field around oneself.

How To Use Abundance Oil Blend

Use Abundance oil before writing articles or blog posts.

Add a few drops of Abundance oil to cleaning water, especially when cleaning your office.

Diffuse it in your home office.

Put a couple drops of Abundance oil on cotton balls and put them into a large container to infuse abundance into business handouts and mailings.

Put Abundance oil on before business appointments.

I put Abundance oil on before I go to town for any reason, especially when I go shopping. It helps me find all kinds of good deals. I have even found money on the ground several times.

One time I found a bunch of money blowing around in the wind. In the process of picking it up, I saw a wallet. It had the name and address of the person who lost it. I put all the money back in the wallet and took it to him. I knocked on his door and told him I found his wallet. He was so thrilled to get his credit cards and drivers license, he gave me all the money inside as a reward.

If you are a Young Living Distributor, you should be wearing Abundance oil everywhere. It is a great conversation starter. Abundance oil smells wonderful and MANY people ask me what that wonderful smell is. That is an automatic opening to share a drop of Abundance oil and give your business card.

At Young Living headquarters they added one bottle Abundance oil to every 5 gallon bucket of paint when painting the offices. They also put drops of oil on the phones in the early days.

Abundance oil is wonderful used with EFT. An example of an EFT session below on attracting abundance.

8 Ways To Use Frankincense Oil

Melodie Kantner — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 21:25:42 +0000

I wanted to share a few of my favorite ways to use Frankincense oil. Actually, there are a lot more ways than 8 for using Frankincense.

1. Mood uplifting. I really love the mood uplifting oils. Frankincense is very powerful this way. I generally wear it like a perfume.

2. Frankincense is great for skin care – Frankincense promotes skin regeneration, and is an excellent choice for preventing or reducing wrinkles when used topically. I personally use it neat, but some prefer to dilute it with a carrier oil.

3. Relieve Skin Itching – Apply a couple drops of Frankincense to the area of itching.

4. Relieve Pain - Rub on sore joints to relieve arthritis pain and pain from injuries.

5. Disinfect Cuts and Scrapes – Apply a drop of Frankincense to wounds to clean and disinfect.

6. Remove Warts – Apply topically to the wart. Apply a couple times a day until the wart is gone. May take a couple weeks.

7. Reduce Inflammation – Put a few drops in capsule or apply topically.

8. Strengthen Immune System – Apply to bottom of feet or take in capsule. Never take oils internally unless you are using Young Living Oils. Many oils are adulterated even though labeled 100% PURE.

Experiences with Frankincense

Chronic Itch

I had an itch on my leg that I just couldn’t get rid of. I had it for 2 or 3 years. It was so bad I scratched all the time and it formed a callous. I tried everything I could think of.
One night I was using Frankincense before bed and decided to give it a try. I applied one drop to the itch. It didn’t itch for a week afterward. So, I applied another drop…now the callous is gone, skin is normal, and if I feel an itch coming on (very infrequent now) I just apply a drop of Frankincense. — Vanessa

Warts
I have suffered with more than thirteen warts, some as big as peas, on my hands for several years. I have tried every product on the market, as well as all the home remedies I heard about, but I had no luck getting rid of them. After receiving my Young Living Essential Oils, I decided to experiment with them. I started rubbing some Spruce Oil and Frankincense Oil on them once or twice a day. After two weeks all my warts were completely gone. — Judy

Planters Warts
I have had two planter warts for ten years on my feet, each the size of a dime. I tried a prescription medicine on them twice, with no success and much pain as it killed the skin around the entire area. After two months of applying Frankincense, they have reduce to half the size, without the pain. — Garry

I had an 8 inch surgical incision. The day the staples came out the oils went on! Twice daily, I applied Frankincense, Lavender, Helichrysum, Gentle Baby, Melrose, and Hyssop. At the time we did not have Elemi but I would have added that as well. At night before I went to sleep after applying my oils I put the highest IU vitamin E oil I could find at the health food store. Then, I put a piece of cotton material over it and secured it with adhesive tape so the vitamin E oil would soak in. I did this treatment faithfully for about 2 or 2 1/2 months and today I have absolutely no scar what so ever!!! Thank you God for Gary Young and our precious sacred oils!!! — Julie
