Watch the video recordings below and use the many helpful recipes and protocols from the Oil Talks below.

CLEARING OUT NEGATIVE ENERGY with Robyn Azima
We are going to use 3 oils. First is lemongrass… energetically it is the oil of cleansing, It clears negative energy, assists in releasing stagnant stuck energy, so our energy is in flow. Take your lemongrass and place 1 drop on the bottom of each foot. Massage it into the foot. Some of you may like to use FCO (fractionated coconut oil) if you find lemongrass too warming. Taking a deep breath in, and as though you can see your energy field which some describe like an egg, you’re going to stretch out your arms as though you are gathering in any negativity, and then on the out breath you release it pushing with your hands down into the earth. You may like to say, “I now release through the power of my breath all energy that does not serve me to my highest potential, and I lovingly release it to the earth…” It’s good to have an intention as you do this. Take a deep breath and let go. You can do this a few times if you like.
Then we take our Tea Tree/Melaleuca and place a drop on our shoulders, rubbing the rest on the back of the neck. We know what a powerhouse this oil is: Tea Tree is the oil of energetic boundaries! As you apply it, you may like to mentally thank the oil for helping you to feel empowered, strong and protected.
Take out your Wild Orange and apply 1 drop on inside of your wrist. Breathe it in deeply. This oil reminds us we are never in lack, we will always have plenty, the world is abundant, there are limitless solutions to our problems and that we just need to let go and trust.

MEDITATION WITH MELANIE:
“At the beginning of a meditation or anytime to support processing feelings of pain from grief, trauma, loss or difficulty, use a drop of Helichrysum over the physical heart space. I suggest a daily protocol of two weeks or more to fortify the space. In a pinch, Correct X ointment can be used.
As a substitute, Breathe oil can be massaged over the top areas of the lungs to open up the ability to process grief, feel more connected and able to receive.
Ginger is the "oil of empowerment" and helpful now to connect with your personal sense of power, feel more present and engaged in life. Rub a drop over the solar plexus and inhale at the end of your meditation, or after grounding, to carry a sense of warmth and presence through your day. If you use this a few rounds in that manner, you may be able to use it as an anchor to call on your personal power when you need it by just smelling it.
Be well!”

Warming Socks Recipe from Louise Rose of Rose Cabinet Medicine (click HERE to print):
“This procedure should be used at the first indication of any congestion in the ears, eyes, sinus, throat, or lungs.
It can also be used effectively for headaches, insomnia and a variety of other conditions.
Try it; you will like it!”
First:
If your feet are cool or cold, it is important to warm them first. This is very important as the treatment will not be as effective and could be harmful. Soak your feet in warm water for 10-15 minutes or take a bath or shower to warm your feet.
Check your feet for any cuts or open sores, especially if you are taking blood-thinning medications. Because it is so effective for increasing circulation, it can cause bleeding to increase.
Apply a drop of On Guard doTERRA essential oil to the bottom of each foot for added immune support if you have it. Prepare:
Take a pair of cotton socks and get them wet with cold water. Be sure to wring the socks out thoroughly, no dripping. “Cold” ranges from cold tap water to storing the wrung-out socks in the freezer for 10-15 minutes. Apply:
Place the cold cotton socks on your feet. Cover with thick wool (best) or acrylic socks. Go to bed with good covers, avoid getting chilled.
Repeat the treatment nightly at least 2 days past the resolution of all your symptoms. You should find that the wet cotton socks will be dry in the morning. If the socks are not dry in the morning, it is possible you did not warm up your feet adequately, did not thoroughly wring out the socks, or did not cover the cotton socks completely with the wool/acrylic socks.

Warming Socks with Dr. Louise Rose
About Dr. Rose: “I am a Naturopathic Physician and owner of Rose Cabinet Medicine who graduated from the National College of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon. Out of my lifelong interest in nutrition and nurturing folks developed an abiding passion for natural medicine. While training for my degree in Naturopathic medicine I rediscovered my love for the therapeutic power of water. The simple act of bathing can be a transformative healing experience. Additionally, I’m interested in working with and treating endocrine disorders, brain and digestive health, nutrition, weight loss, and detoxification. Helping patients to incorporate nutrient-dense, real foods into their meal planning is my passion and joy.”
Use Warming socks to aid your body’s natural defenses…
Use Hydrotherapy (hot / cold water)
Use Castor Oil Packs (Castor oil in glass is best)

Spotlight on: Pink Pepper essential oil
"Research indicated that alpha phellandrene; 1) activates natural killer cells to support a healthy immune response 2) encourages healthy cell cycle and death = Apoptosis 3) supports a healthy inflammatory response alleviates neuropathic discomfort." - Dr. Josie
Dr. Josie’s Pink Pepper Tea recipe:
Add a drop of each to a cup of hot water and drink. This tea is supportive for your cells and encourages your body’s natural immune responses.
-Frankincense
-Copaiba
-Siberian Fir
-Pink Pepper
-Tangerine or Green Mandarin
-Turmeric *Optional (strongest flavor- leave out if too intense)
Topical Usage of Pink Pepper, as recommended by Dr. Josie:
Neuropathic Application - Add Pink Pepper to Aromatouch Blend when you have neuropathic discomfort (shooting or burning pain), especially in the lower extremities of the body. This is an amazing companion product to DDR Prime!
When you look at the whole chemical profile of pink pepper you begin to see how many different systems of the body that it supports because of its complex and beautiful chemistry. Because it has such a great protective affect to the cells it is an amazing companion product to DDR Prime.

Topical
You might be wondering: Layer vs Roller?
Roller bottles are easy to use and good for kids and they are also a good way to mix oils to make a blend. But instead of combining oils in a roller, you should consider laying oils directly on the skin in times of injury.
Using essential oils topically in your bath:
Sea salt and baking soda - use for detoxifying
Epsom Salts - More nourishing
AromaTouch Vs Symphony of the Cells technique?
AromaTouch - This technique is a 40 min session using the same oils for each treatment. It was created by Dr. Hill.
Symphony of the Cells: SOC is a quick technique that anyone can do, using various combinations of essential oils depending on what is happening in the recipient’s body.
Internal oil use
First things first: Use oils in your water! (Dana suggests Pink Pepper and a citrus oil such as Lemon or Wild Orange in your water everyday)
Take Shots.
You can take “shots” of oils to support your body. Use a shotglass and add your oils first, then add water and drink quickly.
Most popular: Dr. Josie’s Allergy Shot - Combine 1 drop of Lemon, Lavender, Peppermint, Tea Tree and Cilantro in a shot glass, fill the rest with water and drink a shot every couple of hours the first day of your troublesome allergy symptoms.
Take Softgels.You can deliver oils effectively to your body via softgels, either premade by doTERRA or made by you.
How do you use oils internally for kids?If you’re looking for an effective and palatable way to use oils for children, put them in applesauce for eating.
Create Suppositories:
Make your suppositories using suppository molds.
You can administer oils using a Syringe .
Vaginal - Tea Tree
Rectal - Frankincense
Hemorrhoids - Helichrysum, Geranium, Cypress, Copaiba and Frankincense in fractionated coconut oil
Vagina Dream Team - 1 oz 10-15 drops of lavender and tea tree
Mandy's Safety tips in regards to vaginal oil use:
SAFETY: “From personal experience if the dilution is wrong, you can damage those delicate tissues. I usually try it in my nose first! I have actually "burned" the tissue in my ear canal and vagina with too-heavy concentrations of Tea Tree so yes, use but please be careful and dilute.
I also find it’s safer until you are comfortable to use the diluted oil on a finger instead of the tampon. the tampon can hold the oil against the wall (or a cotton in the ear) and if the dilution is too weak it is more likely to cause a problem. All of that being said it is a very viable and powerful solution.”

Spotlight on: Rose Touch
Arin’s skincare tip: Put your roller of Rose Touch in the fridge and use on irritated skin or puffy eyes in the morning when you wake up. The metal rollerball will stimulate the vessels in the face and calm the skin.
Use Rose for Skin Issues of all kinds, even for kids! Use Rose on nasty skin issues, on babies when they get a rash, or when the skin is healing.
Rose = Immune Support
Emotional Benefits of Rose… In plant spirit medicine, Rose is considered the wise queen.
Rose can bring you back to your self.
Mandy’s recommendation: Use this oil when you really need to feel Love.
One of the many physical benefits of Rose applies to vaginal issues. You can use it internally with proper dilution and care. Use with Frankincense, Lavender, Geranium, Tea Tree and Neroli well diluted with carrier oil.
Spotlight on: Citrus Bloom
Citrus Bloom is uplifting and happy. It is a combination of citrus and floral essential oils. Because of its chemistry Citrus Bloom is great for deep sadness.
It helps with motivation and Focus issues - it’s great to put in the diffuser when you are homeschooling kids!
Tip: Mix with Adaptiv in the diffuser for a calming and emotionally supportive diffuser blend!
Spotlight on: Beautiful Blend
Beautiful Blend is a combination of Lime peel, Osthmanthus, Bergamot and Frankincense.
It is fantastic for stress. Massage the whole body for sore muscles.
Use it for 1st-time things to ease your nerves and help you feel like you’re confident and in charge! Roll on the Beautiful Blend on your wedding day, on your first day of school, the first time you stand up to speak to a large crowd or when you do something brave and new.
Lime & Osmanthus are both good for the respiratory system, so using Beautiful blend during times like these smells good but also has physical benefits for your breathing.
Spotlight on: Spearmint
Spearmint is the oil of speaking your truth!
In the diffuser, use Spearmint as a sweeter alternative to Peppermint. It combines beautifully with nearly every oil. It’s particularly good with Lime and Pink Pepper!
Use Spearmint aromatically for morning sickness.
Spotlight on: Pink Pepper
doTERRA Founder Emily Wright calls Pink Pepper the “Superhero” oil because it is good for every cell of the body.
Pink Pepper Protects and nurtures cells from oxidative stress. Add Pink Pepper to DDR Prime for total body cellular health!
When you feel something coming on, add Pink Pepper to OnGuard. This is also fantastic with Melissa oil.
Take this oil everyday in tea or water for your health and add a citrus.
Topical use: Blend Pink Pepper with Helichrysum and Aromatouch for nerve discomfort.
Download Dr. Josie’s Notes on Pink Pepper below!
Spotlight on: Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus has been studied for its chemical properties. Go study Eucalyptus on the PubMed website!
Add a drop of Eucalyptus to your mask.
Emotionally, Eucalyptus releases feelings of grief.
Spotlight on: Serenity Blend
Serenity blend is calming and relaxing, perfect for bedtime.
doTERRA chose this for us right now to meets our needs during our collective experience this month.
Use this in a full body massage before bed. Rub Serenity blend into the soles of your feet about 30 minutes before you go to sleep.
Use Serenity in your diffuser when you’re feeling frustrated and stressed. Massage it into your shoulders during the day.
Spotlight on: Lavender
Did you know? Lavender is an antihistamine! This oil must be in your emergency kit. If you need to calm down, put a few drops under your tongue.

Nutrition, Spleen Dampness & Food Energetics
with Vivian Engelsen, LAc
Vivian Engelsen is a licensed acupuncturist living between Los Angeles and Southern Oregon. She has studied with Robert Tisserand, Peter Holmes and other highly respected leaders in the wellness world.
She has been practicing for over 35 years and has extensive experience incorporating oils into her practice.
Vivian is known for her deep-dive presentations on body systems, oils and food.
Vivian, What is the difference between Whole Food vitamins and Synthetic Vitamins?
- A whole food vitamin has very complex chemistry from the micronutrients of plants.
- Synthetic vitamins are made of singular chemical isolates- like drugs. They are missing trace minerals and micronutrients.
Whole food vitamins are bioavailable and are able to be absorbed more efficiently and more effectively, benefitting your body in the long run. In contrast, Synthetic vitamins will pull nutrients from different parts of the body and will leave your body deficient in those places.
Why do some people have issues when they start taking the LLV?
They might be deficient in digestive enzymes. When someone has issues taking the LLV, that does not necessarily mean that they should stop it immediately or that it is not working- this offers valuable information about what is happening in the body, specifically in the liver and the spleen.
How can we improve digestion and why is that important?
First things first: Take Terrazyme! Terrazyme is one of the most effective, amazing doTERRA products because of how well formulated it is for digestive issues.
Have Acid reflux or GERD? People with GERD and acid reflux issues do not have *too much* acid- they have too little and inefficient digestion. There is a holdup in the digestive process that causes the food to sit in the system too long, creating discomfort.
Spleen Dampness and how it affects the digestion…
- Wheat, sugar, chocolate, processed denatured foods, dairy (minus butter) can create damp in the body.
Tongue Diagnosis for issues in the spleen: "The tongue doesn't lie."
Signs of liver issues and spleen dampness: The tongue having a serious coating on it and teeth indentations in the side.
Tip: When eating cold things, hold them in your mouth long enough for them to warm, in order to give your stomach a break.
Essential Oils to Transform Cold and Damp:Ginger
Cardamom
Cinnamon
Clove
Coriander
OnGuard
Geranium
(Points of application: See diagrams on the right)
When you eat too much cold food like smoothies, cold salads and juice, consider popping an OnGuard beadlet after eating or using the other warming oils to offset the cold of the food you're consuming.
If you have difficulty losing weight... Consider adding Terrazyme and oils that help with dampness- as you might not be efficiently transforming your food into energy.
