We believe that essential oils are provided by the Lord to support our health and well-being.
The Lord is our wisdom, protector and healer.
(Genesis 1:29-30, Ezekiel 47:12) 
1. I don't like to admit it, but I have always leaned a bit towards depression, especially if I don't get adequate sunshine and exercise every day. When I put Purpose in my diffuser and/or on my hands, I absolutely don't have that low, sluggish feeling, but quite the opposite! I remember that day I was in your store and you had those boxes of freshly made oils ready to be put on the shelf, and it was as if the Mighty Hand of God pushed me to pick up that one particular bottle. I am so grateful that I listened to Him! - C. I.

2. I have prepared several roll-on applicators with blends to help our little one stay focused and balanced, especially during school time. She loves Peaceful, Purpose and Christofori. When she struggles, I say, let's stop and pray for the Lord to help you. After we pray I ask her if she'd like to choose an oil to apply. I want her to know that it's the Lord we turn to for help, but He has provided essential oils to help us as well. - Linda

3. The other day I was wearing Purpose on my wrists, and a lady asked me what perfume I was wearing. I told her it was an EO and gave her your card with the name of it on it. So fun! That was first time that has happened to me. - Stacy

4. We got samples of the Potential, Purpose and Sunshine with our last order. WOW! They have been a great blessing while dealing with the stresses of COVID-19 quarantine. These will be new staples in this household! - Kimberly
Safety
Cinnamon Bark Drug interaction: may inhibit blood clotting. Oral use cautions: diabetes medication, anticoagulant medication, major surgery, peptic ulcer, hemophilia and other bleeding disorders.

Cinnamon Bark Topical Use Caution: May be sensitizing due to aldehydes. Moderate risk (Tisserand/Young p. 249). To avoid skin irritation/sensitization risk, they suggest that the maximum dermal use level is 0.07%. This would be about 10 drops of Purpose in a 1oz bottle with a carrier oil.
 
Sage Neurotoxicity: Avoid if the person is epileptic or has high blood pressure.
 
Sage and Cinnamon Bark Contraindications All Routes: Pregnancy and breastfeeding (Tisserand/Young). When Cinnamon Bark was fed to pregnant mice for two weeks it significantly reduced the number of nuclei and altered the distribution of embryos according to nucleus number (Tisserand/Young p. 249).
 
Sage Oral Caution: Should not be taken orally. Sage officinalis is considered an oral toxin (due to thujone). If used inappropriately, it can be an abortifacient. (Tisserand/Young).

Children: Cinnamon is not recommended internally for children under 6 years old, and use with caution and in greater dilution for children older than six. May be sensitizing due to aldehydes. Cinnamon is on the “avoid” if pregnant list. Do not use in cases of hemophilia or severe kidney or liver disease.

Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat— like the membranes of your eyes and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eyes or skin. Tisserand suggests: "With essential oils, fatty oil has been suggested as an appropriate first aid treatment, though the advantage of saline [eyewash] is that the eyes can be continually flushed, and this is less easy with fatty oil.” We are not aware of a case where essential oil in the eyes caused permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.
