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.


I had a complete hysterectomy a few years ago. I refused to take the synthetic hormones my doctor prescribed. I did try a cream formulated with yam extract, but quit using it because I thought it was expensive and I couldn't discern any benefit.

In November of 2012 I started using Young Living's Progessence Plus Serum. The FIRST night I used it I slept soundly. I have always been a light sleeper and after my hysterectomy I would lay awake for hours regardless of how tired I was or I would have light, broken sleep.

I also use the Progessence Plus if I want to sleep during the day before a nap and re-apply if I wake in the middle of the night.

I feel like my health has been transformed and this was step 2 of my transformation. Step 1 was drinking NingXia Red juice daily and step 3 is applying a drop of the Longevity oil blend daily.

I feel like a new person at age 53!
