Essential Oil Safety & Guidance
Safety with essential oils seems to be lacking in alot of people that either sell oils or use them regularly. Even I get a bit overwhelmed with all the information that is needed to be known about the safety of usage when it comes to oils. I am hoping to make it easy for you to get the answers you need for yourself and your family in order to use oils safely and effectively. Please post any questions you have. It is better to ask than assume when it comes to oil safety.
This page consists of many informational links that whether is a link to a blog post I have written in regards to safety or information that I feel is trustworthy.

Take a FREE ONLINE COURSE and learn at your own pace! This is the institute I am working my way through for my certification! So if you want to know more about oils and their safety this is the course to start with. I have no affiliation with them except to tell you its worth knowing the safety of your oils!
What are essential oils? Well, in "plain Jane" words the oils that have been extracted from a part of a plant whether it be the flower, bark, leaf etc. The oils are extracted in many ways whether it be cold pressed (usually your citrus type of plants ie orange, lemon etc.) or steam distilled.
What brand of essential oil do I recommend? I personally use wildcrafted oils (plants grown in the wild with no chemicals or pesticides) or certified organic or organic oils. ( I personally only use non certified if they list criteria on their website in order to be able to check purity of their oils)
