How do Young Living Essential Oils Work?
Every living plant produces naturally occurring chemical compounds. These compounds can have positive or negative affects on the human body. For example, tobacco contains nicotine, which is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, and begins affecting the human brain in less than 7 seconds. Nicotine stimulates the release of a hormone called epinephrine, which stimulates the nervous system. Coffee contains caffeine, and Marijuana contains THC. The THC levels found in Marijuana often vary from species to species, and within the same species, depending on a variety of factors.
Cocaine, obtained from the leaves of the Coca plant, is another example. A crystalline atropine alkaloid, cocaine is a natural appetite suppressant. Because of the way it affects the mesolimbic reward pathway, cocaine is addictive. Hash (hashish) and Morphine are also found in nature each having their own characteristics. Hash is derived from the resin of the cannabis (marijuana) plant and can contain THC levels anywhere from 15%-40%. The THC levels found in hash oil are more concentrated, and therefore will be normally double at 30% to 85%. And morphine, extracted as a juice from the seed pods of the opium, is an alkaloid with powerful pain relieving properties that easily pass the blood brain barrier.
Of course the list could go on and on and would fill volumes. But these few examples accurately demonstrate the undeniable power of compounds found in plants.
So the answer to “how do essential oils work”, could be as simple as saying… they work as effectively as everything else in nature. However, essential oils are highly concentrated. Just as it requires over 5,000 pounds of rose petals to get 8 ounces of rose oil, or 15,000 pounds of balsam fir to obtain one gallon of balsam oil, it takes over 1300 pounds of clove buds to collect only 5 ounces of clove oil. This equates to less than 2 drops of clove oil per pound of raw material. We also know through years of research, when plants are steam distilled at low temperatures and only the smallest compounds are collected (leaving the heavier matter behind), the medicinal compounds collected are potent, pure, and powerful.
Throughout the ages, man has discovered (probably by accident in many cases) what happened when certain plants were ingested, chewed, or burned. These discoveries are what have provided the foundation for science and medicine as we know it today.
Operating from that foundation, researchers and pharmaceutical companies work to create “photo-copies” of naturally occurring compounds found in plants. A good example of this can be found in “The Birth of Aspirin”. Once the chemical constituency of a natural substance is identified, chemists formulate the compound synthetically, and then by trial and error, look for other alternatives. This is how heroin was discovered, as a derivative of morphine and thereafter named, “diacetylmorphine”. However, morphine is a controlled substance still used today, while its man-made derivative, heroin, has been outlawed for use in the United States for decades.
In addition to the potency of the many chemical compounds found in essential oils, there are numerous other advantages when comparing them to herbs or other plant products. Because of their atomic weight and frequencies, many of the compounds found in essential oils contain molecules that are made up of aromatic rings and possess living energy as well as harmonic frequencies.
Aromatic rings of carbon and hydrogen are found throughout essential oil molecules. These aromatic rings are formed when 6 carbon atoms bond to another carbon atom on one side and double bond to another carbon on the other side. In order to accomplish this, the atoms are arranged in a circular fashion. To complete the structure, a hydrogen atom is connected to each carbon—also arranged in a circle. When 6 carbon atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms bond together in this fashion, the electrons that are otherwise “wedded” to an atom become free to roam within the molecule and are shared by the other atoms. These electrons begin to zip around from one atom to another millions of times per second. This activity is one of the sources of electromagnetic frequencies that have been measured in therapeutic grade essential oils. The additional energy carried by the electrons dashing around within the molecule is known as resonance energy.
In his book, "The Chemistry of Essential Oils Made Simple”, Dr. David Stewart explains that “when any two atoms connect or bond, to create a compound, there is a measurable frequency associated with that bond. For example, double bonds between carbon atoms have been measured to vibrate at frequencies between 49 and 68 mega-mega-hertz. One mega hertz is a million times per second. A mega-megahertz is a million-million times per second, or in other words, one trillion times per second”.
These various vibrations occur continuously throughout each molecule in aromatic rings all in harmony with the other vibrations of the other rings when talking about pure, therapeutic grade essential oils.
When pure therapeutic grade essential oils are applied, ingested, inhaled, or internalized into your body in any way, they resonate with your human tissue frequencies intrinsic to their molecular spectrum, as well as their resultant harmonic and beat frequencies. Frequency resonance is only one of more than six processes by which essential oils can heal and benefit your health.
Resonance occurs when two things vibrate in unison at the same frequency or frequencies. A good example of this, as Dr. Stewart explains, would be to place several tuning forks of different pitches on one side of a room, including one fork tuned to b-flat. Take another fork also tuned to b-flat across the room and strike it. None of the forks on the other side of the room will be affected except the fork tuned to b-flat. That fork will become energized and begin to hum in resonance and will begin vibrating in tune with the other b-flat. The other tuning forks are not in tune with the b-flat and are not sympathetic with the energizing source.
Another example of resonance, sometimes referred to as sympathetic vibration or vibrational energy transfer, is the ability of the human voice to shatter crystal. Enrico Caruso (the great Italian opera singer) could match the tone of a piece of crystal so perfectly, and by singing with enough force, he could actually shatter it to pieces. It was the resonance that shattered the glass. If he sang another note that didn’t match the fundamental frequency of the glass, the glass was unharmed, regardless of how loud he sang.
The same way sound affected the crystal, or the sympathetic b-flat tuning fork began to hum, essential oils administer therapy to the part or parts of the body that the oil molecules resonate with. Oil molecules each have different frequencies, as do all the parts of the human body. This is why oils that resonate with the gallbladder will deliver therapy there, while different oils may resonate with the brain and deliver therapy there. Accordingly, different oils affect different parts of the body, as determined by sympathetic vibrations.
These sympathetic vibrations occur not only with our organs and tissues, but also with our thoughts and feelings. Essential oils do not resonate with toxins, and therefore drive them out. They also don’t resonate very well with negative emotions, which is why they dislodge forgotten trauma, helping us to resurrect them into our conscious mind where we can resolve them.
Synthetically manufactured, adulterated, or altered, essential oils are typically toxic themselves that adds to the toxic load within our body. The vibrations among the various rings contained in synthetic or adulterated oil molecules could be best compared to a symphony with some of the instruments out of tune. Non-therapeutic grade essential oils will likely contain disharmony in its molecular makeup, contain no healing power or therapeutic value, and can be harmful.
Only Essential Oils produced by Young Living can be trusted to be pure, unadulterated and potent - providing harmonious therapy to the human tissues.
