Everyday Oil: Panaway

Continuing in our essential oil series, let's talk about PanAway today! I use this oil just about every day. It has relieved my muscle pain on days I usually would have turned to over the counter medications - I'm so thankful I have a natural alternative now! It's one of my few dear oils I take with me everywhere I go. 

If you've missed any previous posts in this series, we've covered Lavender, Peppermint, Lemon, Peace & Calming, Purification, Joy, Stress Away, and Valor.

Panaway is a blend of essential oils and contains: wintergreen, helichrysum, clove & peppermint. The scent of these oils combined is SO lovely. I really enjoy it! 

• Rub PanAway essential oil blend across your lower back if you feel discomfort from sitting in front of a computer.
• Post-Workout Relief: Massage on sore muscles after a tough workout.
• Low back Pain: Rub pan away across your lower back if you feel discomfort from sitting in front of a computer.
• Inflammation, bruising, sore muscles: Apply 1-2 drops on area of discomfort (use carrier oil to cover larger areas).
• Tension head pain: Apply 1 drop on temples, forehead and back of neck, avoiding eyes. Lately, I've been using 1 drop PanAway and 1 drop peppermint around my neck (my upper neck is often in pain) & temples. I usually will lay down for at least a few minutes with a cloth over my eyes (I use my snuggie arm ;) it's perfect!), and put a drop of peppermint on the roof of my mouth. 
• Occasional leg pain: Rub 2-3 drops at the base of the spine or vita flex point of the foot to help ease pain.
• Pre-made Cream: Last week, I made an easy cream. I used about 1/4 cup coconut oil or so (you can use more or less, depending on your preference) with about 8 drops peppermint, maybe 10 drops pan away, and 8 drops of valor. There are all kinds of combos out there, but I like to rub this mixture on my neck and shoulders (and knee, hip, ankle - anything else that's bothering me) before bed. 

There are so many uses for PanAway. My co-workers think it smells like coca-cola or root beer when they can smell the aroma after I've applied PanAway - it's very pleasant. If you're new to essential oils, you may be interested in checking out Young Living's new website explaining the way their oils are cared for, from the seed that's planted to the bottle you receive. 

A great resource to have with your oils is the Reference Guide for Essential Oils. In this book, you will find every ailment, alphabetically listed, along with the proper oil to use and how to use it. I currently have the smaller Quick Reference Guide which has been a great resource. For you mommies, you may like the Gentle Babies book by Debra Raybern.

Interested in your own starter kit? 

PanAway is one of the 10 everyday oils that come in your premium starter kit, along with a home diffuser (diffusing the oils is one of my favorites!).  The kit sells for $150, which is a great value at about 50% savings. 

When you purchase the starter kit, you become a "distributor", but there is no requirement to sell.  No monthly or quarterly minimums to meet.  As a distributor, you can purchase at wholesale prices (24% off retail). You can also become a member of an online community to ask questions about the oils and learn even more about them from others. If you only ever use your distributor title just to get the wholesale prices, this is fine!

If you'd just like to try a bottle of PanAway, let me know and I'd be glad to order it for you. 

If you'd like your own premium starter kit, you can follow these instructions:

• Go to:  Member Sign-up Page
• Please make sure you've checked Wholesale Member (and not retail customer---you will not get wholesale prices as a customer)
• Enter #1831136 (my number) in the sponsor ID and enroller ID areas
• Fill out your info
• Select your kit ($150 premium starter kit is the best value.)
• At this point you can add more to your order if you'd like
• All finished!
  
  
  Once you order your kit, I'll be in contact with you to welcome you and help you get the resources you need. I think you're going to love it!

Today's Pinspiration:

Through many hardships we may face in life, it seems we have to make a decision to overcome them. It takes so much, and there is so much beauty on the other side if we can push through. Let's make a choice to let our light shine, despite the toughest of circumstances. There are others who will walk our same path and they'll need our light and encouragement when they get there.
