Here’s what others are saying about Lavender oil:

“Lavender helped me with insomnia just rubbing it on my feet and pillow at night. Inhaling the oil and taking Young Living’s Lavender internally helped me as a natural anti-histamine. I was able to get off everyday anti-histamine use just by using Young Living’s Lavender oil. Now, I just use it as needed. Years ago the whole top of my foot was seriously burned 2nd degree, this oil made a huge difference so much so I don’t even have a scar today.
– Dr. Mary Starr Carter

Whenever I get a new cut I put Lavender oil right on it. This allows for cleaning and a quick healing process, so I don’t have to worry about it getting any worse. I am a new mom, so I don’t always have time for myself! I keep a bottle of Young Living lavender oil in my diaper bag.
