Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


After weeks of suffering from lack of restful sleep and fatigue, I was willing to try anything natural to get rest!

It was then that I was introduced to Young Living Essential Oils by a friend. I purchased the Premium Starter Kit and experimented with the oils. I decided to use the Thieves oil blend as my first oil in the diffuser. Right before bed I put three drops in a diffuser, by my bedside, and 1 drop massaged on my temples. It was the first night in a very long time that I finally experienced a restful sleep!

Since then, I ALWAYS use the diffuser as part of my bedtime ritual. Now, I have 3 diffusers, one in each room!
