I had been using essential oils on and off since my early 20s before I stumbled across Young Living 2 decades later. I was what you would call an oils sceptic…thinking that oils were simply something that you burned in your house to smell nice or to use as perfume. It never dawned on me to use them medicinally or to ingest them.

To say it’s been another intense year is a spectacular understatement. Thank goodness for this soul-nourishing community and the YL products to keep us emotionally, physically and spiritually strong, resilient and grounded. Honestly, I don’t know where I would be without this community. Every day I am just so grateful and humbled to be part of the broader YL community and to be part of this Star Anise Essentials community that we have co-created.

After recovering from 10 days of Covid at the start of January (actually it’s a blessed relief to have lifelong immunity now!), it was so wonderful to bring our Sydney community together at the gorgeous New Years party at my home last Friday 28 Jan and be in the physical presence of each other - finally!

My family and I have just recovered from COVID (or technically omicron) over the past two weeks. My teens were largely asymptomatic and my partner and I were struck with what I would call flu-like symptoms and headaches. The biggest mistake I made was to resume normal activities on day 3 when I started feeling better (thinking it was over) but it returned with a vengeance with debilitating migraines on day 7-9. If you are adrenally fatigued (like I was) any illness will hit you harder. My advice is to rest, rest, rest and wait until you are 100% fully recovered before resuming any normal activities.

So what do Lemongrass, Sulfurzyme and Ningxia Red have in common? Other than being made by YL, of course! I thought I would pass on this brilliant hack that a wise man known as Alan Simpson taught me involving these three superstars.

One word that reigns supreme in my thoughts of late is “sovereignty”. To me sovereignty is feeling EMPOWERED over one’s own life - physically, emotionally and financially. I have made it my mission in life to help people reclaim power over their physical body (through diet and lifestyle choices), to adopt a fearless, positive mindset and to support them in establishing and securing financial sovereignty. In a precarious world, feeling empowered over one’s own wealth, health and emotional state is paramount.

We are often asked about natural ways to care for our plants at home and natural ways to manage pests that may plague plants. I was intrigued to learn that Gary Young would use essential oils as a natural form of pesticide on his farms. I picked up a fantastic booklet on this topic at a YL convention a few years ago in USA and I have had it scanned and uploaded into the Essential Oils 101 Guide in a new section called “Gardening with Essential Oils”.
