I've decided I'm going to make more of my everyday body care and household cleaning products. I love DIY and I like saving money! So it makes sense. Today I whipped up a batch of laundry soap made using only a few ingredients. The hardest thing to find was the washing soda - which I eventually found at Canadian Tire, but it is also readily available online too!
Laundry soap is not only pricey, it also contains toxic chemicals. You may think it doesn't really matter because you're only using it to wash your clothes, but the health hazardous ingredients in laundry detergents are harmful to your health and the environment!
For starters, laundry detergents contains "fragrance" which are derived from petroleum and include things like carcinogenic benzene derivatives, aldehydes, toluene, and a bunch of other toxic chemicals linked to cancer, birth defects, allergic reactions, and central nervous system disorders. Good times.
There are other problematic ingredients in laundry detergents like chemical surfactants, stabilizers and brighteners. The list goes on but I'll save you the details. Basically, conventional laundry soap is BAD NEWS.
Using homemade laundry detergent helps you avoid all those health destructive laundry chemicals, and make your clothes last longer. Plus, your skin won't get irritated, and your nose, lungs, and entire body will thank you for avoiding synthetic scents!
Hello! I'm Anastasia Akasha Kaur. It is my pleasure to be of service to those interested in being happy and healthy. I've devoted my life to cultivating my curiosity in optimum health and well-being, and I love to share what I've discovered along the way.
My professional pursuits have led me down many paths. As a Registered Holistic Nutritional Consultant and Certified Yoga Teacher, I've operated an organic bakery, yoga studio, and wildcrafting business. I helped manage a busy downtown Toronto health food store, and then created Anointment Natural Skin Care, now one of Canada's premier holistic cosmetics companies.
I live in Nova Scotia where I work as a Young Living Independent Distributor, Virtual Assistant, and Holistic Health Consultant. I've been rocking a natural lifestyle since I was 14 years old. One day I told my mom I was going vegetarian (though I'm not now), so she bought me two cookbooks to help me out. As I gradually evolved into a granola eating nature girl, I was offered a job at the local health food store one day when I was shopping. I said yes with no hesitation. Turns out I wasn't the girl they were supposed to offer the job to! I like to think of it as divine intervention. Taking that job changed my life! I didn't know a thing about herbs or supplements, but I dove right into the on-the-job training and loved learning every single thing about holistic health and whole food nutrition. The learning and sharing hasn't stopped since then ~ I've been involved in the natural health and wellness field for over 25 years.
Becoming a mother was the ultimate experience in the application of all my years of natural living and learning. I love being a mom and raising kids who are healthy and strong. I've learned a lot about how to support and recover from the intense experiences of motherhood and life such as pregnancy, labour, the day-to-day life of child rearing, aging into menopause, and of course the stress of marriage and divorce. Throughout it all I experienced the power of whole foods, natural remedies and holistic healing for everything from menstrual cramps to anxiety (and everything in between), and I love helping women feel amazing by ditching toxins and living healthier lives.
Gifts made by hand are so special. They are infused with love because you took the time to slow down and MAKE something which is so rare these days. They are also precious because you infused them with your creative talents, and that is priceless. Here are some ideas for your very own DIY Christmas!

OILY OPPORTUNITY ~
Understanding Exactly What This Business Opportunity Is
Building a Young Living business is a team effort.
The 'secret' to success begins by falling in love and using our products. Then you share that love with friends, family and community helping them to fall in love, teach them to share, get their products paid for and GROW.
Imagine if you and everyone you introduced to this company was not only able to have your monthly Young Living orders paid for but were also able to help all these families earn an additional $500 - $1000 per month. Wouldn't that feel GREAT???
You know that 'Set for Life' lottery where you earn $1000 a week for 25 years. Kind of like that...but without the limits of time or income cap. When you decide to build a Young Living business you can grow as big as you are willing to work for. This business is NOT a lottery. It requires hard work, most of it up front without massive returns. But if you stick with it and follow this system we teach you, it's the best way to leverage your time, our only limited and most valuable commodity.
RESIDUAL INCOME + LEVERAGED TIME = FREEDOM
What is Residual Income?
When you share YL with someone and help your member fall in love with the products, they will want to keep ordering. Every time they order, Young Living pays YOU a portion of their purchase as a THANK YOU for helping connect members to their products. Young Living allocates their marketing $$ to be paid directly to the person who made the actual sale. Super smart, right?.
WHY I LOVE THE YOUNG LIVING OPPORTUNITY
+ THE PRODUCT IS A NEED NOT A WANT "Health" and "Toxin-Free" lifestyle is quickly emerging at the top of consumer needs. Young Living has over 600 products that fit into these categories with everyday wellness needs. Products people use and love month after month, year after year.
+ UNMATCHED EXPERIENCE Young Living has 25+ years of experience and is the world leader & pioneer of the essential oil research/distillation process. Leading the market for this many years shows stability.
+ YL IS YOUR BUSINESS PARTNER Traditional entrepreneurship takes a lot of investment, time, research and planning, not to mention risk. With YL, they have done the heavy lifting. They carry the inventory, handle shipping and customer care. Instead of marketing dollars being spent seeking a potential sale, they pay out commissions on actual sales made. We get paid to connect new and current members to YL's amazing products.
+ UNLIMITED EARNING POTENTIAL Treat YL like a hobby, it will pay like a hobby. Treat it like a business and work it like a job and it will pay like a business. This opportunity has real income earning potential.
+ RESIDUAL & WILLABLE Your independent business is residual, which means it continues to pay as long as you and your downline are ordering. With this in mind, imagine being able to leave a legacy for your family that continues to give.
+ TAX ADVANTAGES Having a home based business has tax advantages. Keep all your receipts and consult your tax professional.
+ COMMUNITY You are in business for yourself, but not by yourself. You have a community of like-minded entrepreneurs who have a heart to help you succeed.
+ TRAVEL OPPORTUNITIES As you achieve ranks with YL, you will have the opportunity to visit their global farms and experience the Seed to Seal process first hand.
+ NO EDUCATION OR EXPERIENCE REQUIRED You don't have to be an expert. Most successful leaders started by sharing their passion from their own experiences and learned as they earned.
My Why:
+ Being Debt Free
+ Financial Freedom
+ Residual Income
+ Giving MORE
+ Pursuing Dreams
+ Security
+ Knowing what I am building now will provide for my family for years to come.

I've been using essential oils for over 20 years. I really wish someone had introduced me to Young Living years ago. They are truly the best quality essential oils around. The oils are therapeutic grade which means they aren't those cheap oils you find EVERYWHERE these days -you know, the oils that have gone through so many hands with very little regard to their source, how they were distilled, or whether they have been adulterated. Nope, Young Living oils are guaranteed to be pure and EFFECTIVE!
Young Living's story started more than 25 years ago with a simple, home-built essential oil distillery. Today, our farms and community span the globe. Because of our proven commitment to provide nature’s best, millions trust Young Living to deliver superior essential oils.
Young Living's Seed to Seal® process is our promise to you. This meticulous, five-step approach allows us to deliver nature’s most potent and pure essential oils from our farms to your family.
From the time Young Living choose our seeds to when the products are delivered to your home, we hand-pick the very best to ensure purity and safety. Young Living takes this rigorous approach so we can promise you the most authentic essential oil experience—every time.
This unique approach also sets Young Living apart. As we oversee every step of production to ensure that you're getting pure essential oils and products you won’t find anywhere else.
At Young Living we do not purchase our oils from 3rd party distilleries, and our Seed to Seal production ensures that our oils are authentic and the purest oils you can find anywhere in the world.
This is why thousands of people choose Young Living Essential Oils.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO OFFER THERAPEUTIC GRADE ESSENTIAL OILS?
To be Young Living® Therapeutic Grade Means:
* There has been verification of the correct species when the seed was planted
* There has been verification of the purity and manner of cultivation (no chemicals or nearby pollution, etc.)
* There has been verification of proper time of harvest to optimize the properties in the oils
* There has been verification of the proper manner of distillation to capture all of the therapeutic compounds and chemical composition as determined by sophisticated laboratory tests
* There has been verification of the purity of the packaging–i.e. nothing added, nothing taken away, stored in light-protected containers (amber or blue bottles) of glass, ceramic, Teflon, or stainless steel, and kept in a suitable environment of appropriate temperatures
The term, “Therapeutic Grade,” applied to essential oils was originally coined and defined by Gary Young and Young Living®. Years ago some aromatherapists and competing companies criticized Young Living® for using this term saying, “there is no such term.” They were right in that no government or regulatory agency had defined the term, but Gary and Young Living® did define it.
