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.


When traveling home after the holidays - an 11 hour trip - my husband was driving so that I could work on my laptop and I got so extremely drowsy that I could not continue to work. My bag of oils was in the trunk so I asked my husband if he had any oils in the car. He opened the arm rest and pointed to the Clarity oil blend and the Young Living car diffuser.

I took several deep breaths of the Clarity from the bottle, applied it to my carotid arteries (either side of the neck) and on the inside of my wrist and then I then rubbed my wrists together. I also dropped a few drops onto the car diffuser and plugged it in. Within a very short time (3-5 minutes) I was completely alert and clear-headed and able to continue with my work!

I had a similar experience in the mid-afternoon and once again pulled out the Clarity. It worked as quickly the second time as the first. I will need to add this wonderful oil blend to the ones I always carry with me in my purse!

No more drowsy driving or riding worries for me!
