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 was attending a VBAC hopeful mom in the summer of 2012. She was having lots of anxiety due to prodromal labor. I helped her calm herself with the Young Living Peace & Calming essential oil blend.

She had just about thrown in the towel around 48 hours later and was ready to go in for a repeat c-section. I applied Young Living PanAway oil blend across her lower back and then she climbed up into bed and slept a few hours. I left the bottle with her and throughout the night. She would apply it again when overwhelmed by back pain.

When morning came, she entered active labor and a few short hours later beautifully birthed her baby in triumph in her own living room, under her own power.
