Take Time for Self-Care in 2009

This past weekend I was determined to take some time to slow down and practice self-care, so I enjoyed a pedicure with my favorite essential oils. Spa treatments, whether at home or at a spa, are a great way to pamper yourself and transport you to a state of bliss. But they're also a great way to improve your health and well-being.

Many of us could enjoy better health by reducing stress. Stress can wreak havoc on our bodies in the form of weight gain, emotional overload, and lack of sleep. In this month's issue of O, The Oprah Magazine, Oprah revealed how stress has affected her health:

"What I've learned this year is that my weight issue isn't about eating less or working out harder, or even about a malfunctioning thyroid. It's about my life being out of balance, with too much work and not enough play, not enough time to calm down. I let the well run dry.

In 2009, dare I, dare all of us give ourselves all the love and care we need to be healthy, to be well, and to be whole? I know for sure that for each moment of this brand new year, I'm gonna try."

So this year, be sure to surround yourself with the aromas of essentials oils, and take time for self-care with pampering treatments using dōTERRA's certified pure therapeutic-grade essential oils. Your body, and mind, will thank you for it!

MJ Assist™ and FM Assist™ Now Available!

We are pleased to announce the availability of our first two products in our Health Assist™ targeted wellness line, MJ Assist™ and FM Assist™, two all-natural dietary supplements formulated with Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade™ essential oils. We would also like to announce the availability of our first product offering in our DōTerra Spa line, Spa Therapy Bath Salts, a custom blend of therapeutic bath salts from around the world that provide a soothing and detoxifying medium for using DōTerra essential oils in therapeutic bathing.

MJ Assist™ Muscle and Joint Formula
Whether from a long day on your hands and knees in the garden, a training run for your upcoming 10K race, or keeping pace with your teenagers on a weekend mountain hike, we all experience occasional muscle and joint discomfort associated with today’s active lifestyles. As we age, our bodies don’t seem to respond the same way they did when younger, and we may experience muscle and joint discomfort more frequently.

Many of the over-the-counter and prescription pharmaceutical solutions for muscle and joint discomfort can be accompanied by negative side effects such as stomach discomfort resulting from the inhibition of the COX-1 enzyme which protects the stomach’s lining. MJ Assist is an all-natural alternative for temporary relief of muscle and joint discomfort. MJ Assist’s fast-acting formula is made with safe and gentle therapeutic-grade essential oils that support your body’s response to physical activity with no harmful side effects.*

Wholesale price: $29.50
20 softgels (20 servings per box)

FM Assist™ A Monthly Formula for Women
Millions of women suffer from the unpleasant side effects associated with menstrual cycles. PMS discomfort can include cramps, bloating, nausea, and headaches. Such discomforts are never well timed and can ruin any woman’s plans for the day or party for the weekend. When symptoms of PMS arrive, a woman needs immediate relief to continue functioning at a high level.

Over-the-counter and prescription pharmaceutical solutions for PMS discomfort may only address some symptoms associated with a woman’s menstrual cycle. Some products target headaches while others target cramps and may be accompanied by undesirable side effects. FM Assist’s fast-acting blend of therapeutic-grade essential oils is an all-natural alternative for temporary relief of monthly PMS discomfort, cramps, bloating, nausea, and headaches.*

Wholesale price: $24.50
15 softgels (7+ servings per box)

DōTerra Spa Therapy Bath Salts
Therapeutic bath salts have a long history of traditional health care applications and are enjoying a resurgence of use in modern health spas offering therapeutic bath treatments. Bath salts are used to revitalize skin, soothe sore muscles, and for detoxification. They also function as excellent carrier medium for essential oils used in bathing therapies. DōTerra Spa Therapy Bath Salts are a blend of exotic spa-grade bath salts sourced from around the world that provide a soothing, detoxifying medium for therapeutic bathing with DōTerra’s Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade™ essential oils.

Wholesale price: $14.50
1 lb. re-sealable bag

We hope you enjoy the latest additions to our growing lines of essential wellness products. Our product pipeline is full and we look forward to launching new and exciting products each month throughout the rest of the year, and beyond!

DōTerra Announces Insect Repellent Blend

DōTerra is proud to announce the forthcoming launch of TerraShield™ Repellent Blend.

As reported recently in HealthNewsDigest--"DEET is commonly known as the king of mosquito repellents, though not everyone is keen to slather it on their skin. A study conducted in the late 1980s on Everglades National Park employees to determine the effects of DEET found that a full one-quarter of the subjects studied experienced negative health effects that they blamed on exposure to the chemical. Effects included rashes, skin irritation, numb or burning lips, nausea, headaches, dizziness and difficulty concentrating. Duke University pharmacologist Mohamed Abou-Donia, in studies on rats, found that frequent and prolonged DEET exposure led to diffuse brain cell death and behavioral changes, and concluded that humans should stay away from products containing it."

DōTerra's "TerraShield" Repellent Blend includes only Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oils. Oil of lemon eucalyptus, which is derived from eucalyptus leaves and is the only plant-based active ingredient for insect repellents approved by the CDC, is one of the oils found in this new blend. This new blend of oils will be up to 10 times more effective than DEET.

Look for the launch of this new product within the next 2 weeks.

DōTerra's Official Launch Celebration!

Mark your calendars! October 17 & 18 are the dates of DoTerra's official launch event. The celebration will be held in Salt Lake City, Utah at the Little America Hotel. Additional details and registration information are coming soon. You can be sure that it will be very worth your time and an event not to be missed.

Essential Tips for Aromatherapy
March 25, 2008
Don't buy perfume oils thinking they are the same thing as essential oils. Perfume oils do not offer the therapeutic benefits of essential oils. Even if you only intend on using aromatherapy in your lifestyle for the sheer enjoyment of the aroma, essential oils that are breathed in can offer therapeutic benefits. These benefits do not occur with the use of perfume oils.

Essential Oil Education Classes


Learning how to use essential oils is great fun, but can also be a challenge for new people. We are absolutely committed to providing opportunities of learning for people at all levels of experience with oils.

Some great thoughts from a few of our new happy friends!

From Amanda--I have had great experiences with the doTerra essential oils I have been given to use and would like to share them. I have suffered with depression and anxiety for 7+ years and have always wanted to find a natural way of gettng relief and lifting a heavy mood. After reading quite a bit about what essential oils can do for people suffering from depression and anxiety I put my faith to the test and went completely off my medication and am doing just fine using some of the suggested oils effective for this problem. I am so EXCITED to have this product and want to share it with anyone who wants to hear. As for my family, My husband is using oils for better rest at night, heartburn, aches and pains and is very open to them. My youngest son also has had a cold this week and for the first time I have sworn off the over the counter medictions we would normally give him to mask his symptoms, and have tried Eucalyptus,Lemon, Peppermint, and Lavender, and he has recovered amazingly and without any discomfort and in a few days time. WOW ! I'm a believer! Have I mentioned I am excited?

From Bill--The good news is that I received your samples and am very impressed! Thank you for sending them. They not only smell much purer and better, but I can indeed immediately feel a vibrational difference. These samples are exceptional, so now I am officially interested and very motivated to explore all possibilities with DoTerra!

From Nicole--Our family has been using DoTerra Essential Oils for a while and we love them! DoTerra Essential Oils are amazing, and they work so well. At first we were skeptical about them, but we have had many wonderful things happen since we started using them. And now we couldn’t be without them. When our family was in the beginning stages of using the oils, our youngest son became sick, he was just crying and lying around and not moving much. This time I was so grateful we had the oils at home, since we knew what the problem was we came home and used the essential oils. Shortly after applying them my son felt fine, and didn’t even act sick. Since then DoTerra essential oils have help with our sons earaches, cough attacks, warts, headaches/migraines, pain in the back, nausea, the list goes on and on….we have had so many amazing things happen. It has been so nice to be able to use essential oils without the worry of side effects of medicine.

From Rob--Since having access to DōTerra oils, one of the first things that me and my wife have done is made blend of Lavender and Lemon in a coconut oil carrier. Because Coconut oil is solid at about 75˚ I slowly melted down 2 tblspns. Then I added about 10-20 drops each of Lavender and Lemon. The smell is out of this world, and assumed it would have a very "calming" effect on the kids, among other benefits. Every night around bed time, we take the blend and begin massaging their feet with the application. Not only is it a bonding opportunity for us, but it is obviously very calming to them. They will often fall asleep during the massage. The most exciting thing however, is that my wife and I have noticed that they wake up clearly having had a very effective night of sleep. They awake, quickly, with positive attitudes, and greatly refreshed. The amazing thing is that there are times that we miss the opportunity to apply oils to one of the kids. The contrast between them and the other kids is outrageously palpable. The other helpful effects cannot be clinically verified, but we can report that since daily using these oils on the kids, we have also pushed through one of the most sever seasons of cold and flu going on around our family and the unfortunate effect on their friends, schoolmates, and neighbors. However our whole family seems to be dealing better with these infectious illnesses. A coincidence? We can't be sure, but personally I'm drawing the initial conclusion that dōTerra oils are incredible.
