Most Economical Way to Get Started with Essential Oils

Working out where to get started with Essential Oils can be tricky as there are so many! I would start by asking yourself this question:

What would I like to support in my life? Stress, Sleep, Overall Wellbeing, Focus, Hormones, Skin. Simply: What do you want to feel less off? What would you like to feel more of?

Featured here is the best value diffuser $58, with 2, 6 or 12 hr option to diffuse, light on or off.

There is an option to suit every budget, and I have collated a short video and snapshot of the most economical options for you. Featured to the left is the petal diffuser – best value diffuser $58, with 2, 6 or 12 hr option to diffuse, light on or off.

5 Different Options to Get Started on Every Budget:

  1. Introductory Kit – 3 oils in 5ml: Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint. This would be a beautiful gift, and is a neat sampler. Total
    $26.50 wholesale (+$35 enrolment = $61.50)
  2. Family Essentials Collection (10 key oils all 5ml) & Smart & Sassy 15ml Metabolic Blend $174 (includes your membership) Best of all has 10 key oils you’ll use throughout your home: Lemon, Lavender, Peppermint, Frankincense, Easy Air, On Guard, Digestzen, Tea Tree, Oregano & Ice Blue. This is a perfect way to get a little of all the key oils, so you can makeup headache blends with Peppermint, cleanse with Lemon, boost mood with Frankincense, settle nerves and sleep better with Lavender, soothe aches with Ice Blue, settle tummies with Digestzen, clear airways with Easy Air, knock away the nasties with On Guard, clear skin and hair with Tea Tree, immunity support by Oregano.
  3. Bedtime Bliss Wellness Box Lavender Peace, Cedarwood, Vetiver, Balance all 15ml Peace Touch Roller 10ml and Fractionated Coconut Oil 115ml to dilute and apply. All for $172 this includes your membership. Click here to see a video of Bedtime Bliss: https://www.blissactive.com.au/sleep-baby-sleep/
  4. Check out all Enrolment Kits Click Here: The most popular is the Home Essentials Kit and where I started as great value and comes with top 10 oils in 15ml and a diffuser.
  5. You can also just start with 1 or 2 oils and pick up the wholesale benefit by selecting “Introductory Wholesale Enrolment Pack”. This will give you access to all of the oils at wholesale price. You pay $35, then for each individual oil you select. Personally we believe the Enrolment Kits are the best way to go as will save you over time.

Refer a Friend

So you love having Essential oils at your finger tips… yes they are amazing! Totally understandable, who knew how good a drop of wild orange could make you feel – right?

Hooked on oils, and can't help but tell all your friends...
Refer a Friend

Did you know Doterra has an incredible referral program?

So what does this mean to you? The start of a residual income, side hustle, little extra money to help with your groceries – absolutely. Or you may love the product but currently have ZERO time to delve deeper right now…. that’s understandable, there are still beautiful referral bonuses for you.

Let’s break it down, to learn about your options because your friends will see and feel the difference in you, and have oil envy. So help a friend out, because friends don’t let friends buy retail. That’s way too expensive.

1.Explore the financial benefits: You love your oils and naturally can’t help but tell others, it is as simple as that and earn 20% of the total pv of their first purchase. For example, a Home Essential kit is $47 that within a week will be on your Doterra Account. There are no ongoing commitments, so simple. If your keen to start sharing this beautiful natural lifestyle check out this blog “How do I help my friend get started”.

2. Referral Bonuses: I am incredibly grateful for the referrals of your family and friends. To honor you for sending your loved ones my way to support, mentor and guide on their essential oil journey, I offer a special referral bonus just for you. Specially selected for you to enjoy your oils. And if you come across something good I am sure you can’t help but tell your friends how good it is.

How does that work?

You connect me via messenger or email with one or more of your friends who would like to try essential oils or learn more about how they and their family can benefit from using them. I’ll arrange to listen to what they would like to support within their lives or if simply keen to move to a more natural lifestyle, eager to learn beautiful daily rituals to keep them healthy and happy. I’ll teach them about the oils and answer their questions. If they want to get started using the oils, I’ll help them set up an account to get the oils for the best possible prices. Making sure to make the most of any current promotions available to them. I’ll be their support person for any time they have a question come up.

Once I help your friend set up either a wholesale membership or a wellness advocate account with doTERRA and they place their first order, I will reach out to you to see what special gift I can send your way to say thank you. Referring a friend doesn’t mean your starting a business… although they all start here. Also you aren’t committed into doing anything extra. It’s simply sharing the joy of the essential oils.

Benefits for your friends from me…

  1. 25% – 40% off Doterra Essential Oils
  2. Welcome pack to help them right away including Essential Oil Booklet (your go-to mini oil bible), wild orange, and rollers.
  3. Education emails in short snippets to get started
  4. Access to an exclusive oil community over 1000 peeps from around the world to learn and connect with.
  5. Personalised Membership and Lifestyle Overview with me. Go deep on protocols to support physical and mental health including sleep, stress, skin issues, body aches or even cover green cleaning, pet support and cooking with oils.
  6. On Going Support and Education so no matter what life brings you there’s someone to turn to, help guide you with your essential oils.

Got questions or just want to understand this a little more? Send me a message!

I could go on and on…. The beauty of Doterra is its so easy to share with others, so they can have their own too. This is a step by step process on how you can enrol them yourself. You’ll be surprised how quick it is.

How to Sell doTERRA Essential Oils

Choose how you would like to run your own business, be it having fun classes at home or local cafes or via online. Even the beauty of simply connecting one on one with people.

You don’t need to throw parties or even sell products.  You can do it just to get the the wholesale pricing on your own orders or orders for family.  Once you start trying essential oils you might find yourself wanting to tell everyone you know…I’m warning you.   When you see how a little Peppermint can change your world you might want to share through a class…your friends will thank you.  They’re even kits to help you have a simple cooking or oil blending class with very little preparation.

You can really do a major makeover on your medicine cabinet with essential oils and feel good about using something natural.  That has to be better for you, don’t you think?  I can help you learn how to do it!

I offer phone calls, online classes and more to all our team members to help you learn about essential oils.  They really are amazing and easy to share.

There are NO REQUIRED MONTHLY ORDERS!  {That’s one of the biggest questions I get!}

—You can grow your doTERRA business to suit your needs.  Sell products through your free online store {25% commission} or buy products and sell them at retail prices.  It’s easy to get free products to turn around and sell.  You can also start building your own team and training them to build teams…the sky is the limit.

Wellness Advocates do NOT need to live near me!  I can help you grow by email and phone calls.  Sometimes I visit as I travel, and I now have over 1000 people on my team located all over the world!  So, no worries about where you live…you can still work together with us!  We offer some fabulous online classes for our team members and a private Facebook group loaded with friendly people!

Steps for how to enrol someone into your own Doterra community and get the best price for them:

1. Log into to your doterra account, and on the top tab click “Wellness Advocate Services”, then click “Register A New Wellness Advocate”

2. Have their contact details, including Name, Address, Phone, Date of Birth, Email, enrolment order and card payment information ready. Select “Australia Local warehouse”, “Wholesale Customer or Wellness Advocate”*. Then simply enter their details. Under Enroller ID: should have your Doterra ID. You can also add in a different Sponsor ID, then click verify. Please speak to your enroller about this so can plan what’s best for you.

3. Add their kit or add “wholesale pack $35” and then the individual items they like. Click view totals, to see full price with postage. Click continue, and add Credit Card details.

4. Check your email you should receive an email confirmation of a new enrolment, as they should also receive an email for order confirmation.

Once enrolled, please check in with your enroller for support, as you will need to ensure you have the correct sponsor ID attached to the new member, and this can only be done in the first 10 days.

Be sure that you have a 100 point value order set as a Loyalty Rewards Template so that you will receive 20% commission on the point value of your new members order. It doesn’t have to have processed yet, but it does need to go through during the month your customers’ order is in. You can use this to pay for your next order or even transfer to your bank account. This is just one of 3 ways we are paid, this company is very generous. Take a look here to find out more about the business opportunity. Which is very real I have helped hundreds get started and 4 years later we are still going strong.

Homeschooling – no more fights… please

Have you been running thin of patience? Just wanting to see the end. If you’ve been rocking this and relishing in all the together time I hear you, but it hasn’t all been rainbows and lollipops. Just a day when it all runs smoothly and there’s no fights and arguing. Wouldn’t that be a dream!

Chalk drawing and Hopscotch!
Writing site words on footpath is another great fun learning activity.

People thrive on community and connection and no more than our children who are used to being in a classroom filled with 24+ other bodies every day. Their energy bouncing around the room. Their playgrounds are closed,

Playgrounds closed. Swings tied up and forts locked off like a crime scene.
Playgrounds closed. Swings tied up and forts locked off like a crime scene.

and sports canceled. The joy in sharing jokes and running around with friends snatched away from them two months ago. They are over their siblings, parent-teachers who are so bossy and at their last tether.

Homeschooling - work he's most proud of: drone and fox drawing!
Homeschooling proud of his work! Fox and Drone drawing all by himself.

Deep appreciation and gratitude to teachers even more so now. I have been thinking for the few years, what a task they have with all those students, marking, grading, setting homeworking, planning, and programming to a rigorous set of requirements.

This gig can be hard, and yes we can look on the bright side, we are fortunate we’re not sick, we have all of our essentials covered. However, there are only so many daily psychological stresses you can bear and your children can bear before it all becomes too much. You may know my expertise is in fitness so you’d think I’d be all over the PE requirements of homeschooling, well no… when I looked we were supposed to do 3 physical fitness tests each session about 40-50 minutes to complete from setting up. On Friday to break away from an argument with one child over English or Geography we got into the backyard to start with the PE. On top of the 3 fitness tests, there were also basketball drills and other activities. Plus a timetable to complete their daily schedule. Given that the kids only have one 30min session usually each week, my child was surprised at the amount of PE. So yep I felt like a failure, we could have done this. But you know what I am not going to beat myself up about it because fresh air and scooter rides down the road are even more important than ticking of worksheets.

I read today an article “How to stop Kids fighting” and it left me feeling really like I had no more answers, and this stuff is too fluffy to work in my house. Here’s the truth, each squabble or fight is going to be different and you need many many tools in your toolkit to work through them. I am going to share here some practical things I have done or turned to of late, in the hope they may help someone else.

Tool Kit Ideas for Flipping Mindsets:

  1. Let them sort it out themselves. Invaluable negotiation skills, and building emotional intelligence.
  2. Break it up and separate them. Physically I am not always able to do this, especially when a child is not agreeable to it, but when I can get them in separate spaces and let everyone breathe in their own space.
  3. Change of scenery – take them for a drive, take them outside to kick the ball.
  4. Hold them – just hold them in a loving way until their emotions can settle. Let them know you understand they are frustrated and talk through the scenario.
  5. Put Music on and start singing and dancing. Usually, I put on Spotify and make up a tune, or pick up the guitar (I can’t play) and just strum…. “Let it be” or something else pertaining to the situation.
    This will put them in shock.
  6. Add water: Offer a drink, a bath or a swim (if the weather is right). Water play is always relaxing. If it’s a bath definitely add some essential oils to calm and relax, my favourite at the moment is Adaptiv, closely followed by Lavender Peace and Balance. Bath can be anytime of the day.
  7. Dab an essential oil onto necks and base of skull while midst meltdowns, or at onset. In the peak I go for Adaptiv, Vetiver or Balance. To start the school day – I love the children’s touch rollers, Thinker behind the years, Brave on the heart and wrists. Watching them breathe it in is just adorable everytime, as I can see them feeling the oily goodness coming into their bodies.
  8. At night time we have been popping on some peaceful meditation youtubes. Here’s one they enjoyed listening to: https://youtu.be/hxFDliXvm0s
  9. Pop on a relaxation yoga for kids. https://youtu.be/4ZpkRAcgws4
  10. Acts of Kindness ~ Who can I help today? Thinking of others, making a card or writing a letter. Be it to friends, grandparents or nearby age care home it will be greatly appreciated and provide a sense of a greater picture of the joy in helping others.

It’s also really important to ask yourself these questions when dealing with fights?

“What is triggering them? – Are they hungry, tired? Is there something going on emotionally – friendship struggles? Feelings of inadequacy? When did you last have one on one time with each of your children – doing something they enjoy?”

We can spend all day correcting, but how often are we giving praise and building them up? This is a big one for me. Each day I want my children to know they are loved, and how proud we are of them. And where possible give really specific examples of their value.

At the end of the day if their interest lays in how to build a beehive, just go with it. There are all types of learning. And if their engaged and keen well that’s a win. You know an added bonus my kids are loving their piano lessons even more than usual, the youngest has even requested 3 lessons per week…. unheard of.

Beehive research and drawing of Mummy. Just so we’re clear the symbol on my front is a thumbs up! I got it straight from the artist mouth.

Good luck, parenting is hard, there is no one rule fits all. Fortunately, there is some light at the end of the tunnel. After starting homeschooling on March 26, it is a blessing to see for the children their school routines will resume back sometime this May.

For your own sanity and to have a laugh at all things parenting – check out Netflex “Working Mums”. Get your own serenity diffusing with Balance and Citrus Bliss or Adaptiv and Spearmint perfect for a gorgeous day. And have a Patience roller on hand! Rembember Serenity = Lavender Peace.

Like to get your essential oil journey started or need a hand with what you’ve got? Reach out happy to help you! And if you have any suggestions on keeping your homelife calm please share, love hearing other’s ideas.

Fermented Pineapple, Sauerkraut and all the good gut health essential oils

Jars of Fermented Pineapple and Saurkraut

Hands up if you’d like to live healthier, happier lives?  Full of energy and vitality.

Well it all comes down to your guts and how well you can balance that baby out with good bacteria.  Have beautiful support for your immune and digestive systems with healthy gut flora growing happily.  Easily said but in a world where we are bombarded with chemicals, toxins and food on the go, it can be hard to maintain good gut health.

Think about the food you put in your mouth – fresh or steamed vegetables, good fats such as avocado, coconut oil and your Omega 3s – hello fish!  These will all greatly benefit the work your digestive system is trying to do.  Fermented foods also greatly benefit there is also Natto – a little rare to find unless you live in Japan, and very much acquired taste.  However you can make your own fermented goodness in the form of sauerkraut, fermented pineapple or kimchi.  Relatively easy and will last for months, as a little bit goes a long way.  You don’t sit down to a bowl of it instead have it as a condiment to flavour up your meals.  A probiotic supplement such as PB Assist will go a long way in helping maintain good health bacteria also.  All of my family take this or the junior PB Assist with is a huge hit with the kids.  Read more about the importance of a good probiotic and PB Assist here.

Recently I had the privilege to take part in a pineapple fermenting workshop at the local community farm and was delighted to see how simple this process is and delicious.  You will see my pineapple jar on the left, and the typical sauerkraut made from red cabbage on the left.

Jars of Fermented Pineapple and Saurkraut

 

Another very accessible and simple way to support your gut health is via essential oils.  Here are my top picks:

Peppermint

With its cooling and reliving effect, peppermint is perfect to inhale or to add a drop into peppermint tea to help settle the tummy.  A favourite is also the peppermint beadlets for pop in your mouth on the go support, instant alertness and breathe freshener.  Also great in pregnancy for those morning green feelings.  During breastfeeding it is cautioned as can lower milk supply.

Used for its benefits since ancient times ginger is great at supporting the immune and digestive systems back to optimal health.  Soothing and assisting in digestion, as great to have on hand for those that don’t travel well in cars or boats.  Perfect to add to your homemade kimchi or fermented foods.  Our fermented pineapple has a healthy dose of ginger and tumeric.  Delicious in stir frys, gingerbread, apricot and ginger balls, ginger cookies and especially with a drop with lime in soda water for a refreshing drink.

Cardamom

With its unique chemical composition Cardamom gives both digestive and respiratory support.  With its calming soothing effect it can help settle tension and contractions in the digestive tract.  Also very calming and relaxing for the airways, a key oil in Easy Air, the key oil for respiratory support as well as my “Cough be gone” blend.  It is a hidden gem in the cooking world too, delicious in apple pie, poached pears, chai lattes and banana bread.  Would be amazing addition to the Fermented Pineaple too.

 

What do you like to use as your healthy gut nutrition and support?  Love to hear others suggestions.

Here is the recipe for the Pineapple Sauerkraut:

1kg cabbage (rid of core, save outer leaf)
3 tsps Sea Salt
Small Pineapple diced
1 tsp powered tumeric or grate fresh
2-3 drops of Ginger – Doterra Essential Oil

Method:

  • Shred cabbage finely, place in bowl
  • Mix the salt with cabbage, set aside for 10-15min
  • Massage the cabbage until it releases its juices
  • Mix the diced pineapple, Tumeric and Ginger through well
  • Pack into sterilised jar.  Place the saved outer leaf on top of the jar with the bump side to the top.  To help keep the cabbage and pineapple under the juices.  You can weigh down the top of the leaf too with a ceramic disc.
  •  Leave to ferment on bench for 5- 7 days out of direct sunlight.  During fermentation you need to release the gases as they build up by “burping the jars.  Not too much air in but just lift lid slighlty.
  • Then discard outer cabbage leaf and place in fridge to store.

How to Use Essential Oils?

Essential Oils and Aromatherapy

Aromatically, Topically, Internally….. What do these all mean?

Topically

Since you’ve been a baby you’ve been exposed to “fragrance” inside of lotions, creams and washes that you’ve been using.  Topical application is application to the skin, we always recommend diluting to avoid skin sensitives also to help the oils absorb into the skin better with a carrier oil.

Personally, when I am using topically it is most likely I am using a roller bottle.  A glass bottle of 5ml, with a roller bottle on the top.  These are pre-dilluted with fractionated coconut oil as the Doterra Essential Oils are so strong you only need a few drops.  For every 5ml I only have 10 essential oil drops and top the rest of the bottle with the fractionated coconut oil.

I will apply these to my pulse points, wrists, neck and behind ears and wear as a perfume.  These also support me physically and emotionally throughout the day depending on what I am needing.

Aromatic Dressing

A beautiful process to nourish and hydrate your skin by diluting your favourite essential oil in fractionated coconut oil and liberally applying it all over your body from your toes, along your legs, thighs and buttocks, across the belly, chest, neck, back and arms.  This is a wonderful way to wear your fragrance for the day, moisturise your body and help provide support with your favourite essential oil or combination.  No need for toxic perfumes when you can do it naturally.  Put on your favourite music and rub in circular motion all over your body to really get into the aromatic dressing movement.

Blending

The combining of 2 or more oils in a roller bottle, dish or diffuser.  This is great for allowing a few oils to work their magic in harmony at once.

A common blend we have pre-made to support:

Head Tension: Peppermint 4 drops, Lavender 3 drops and Frankincense 3 drops

Cough Cough: Cardamom 3 drops, Siberian Fir 3 drops, Marjoram 2 drops and Frankincense 2 drops

Immune Booster: Onguard 2, Oregano 2, Lemon 2, Tea Tree 2 and Frankincense 2

Night Night: Lavender Peace 7 drops, Vetiver 3 drops

Anxious Feelings: Balance 6 drops, Wild Orange 4 drops

Owie: Lavender 4 drops, Tea Tree 3 drops, Frankincense 3 drops

Layering

Layering is a technique to apply multiple oils one at a time waiting in between.  Applying one oil at a time waiting 1-2 minutes between each one allowing the essential oil to absorb, most take 15-30 seconds and then allow them to take effect.  This allows each oil its moment to shine and support the body as best it can.

An example of when this has been most effective:

I cut my toe on an oyster shell it throbbed all night, the next morning the wound had started to heal but it was throbbing.  So I rolled on some frankincense, within moments the cut opened up and a small amount of fluid released giving instant pain relief.  Then I rolled tea tree on the top to help cleanse the skin to keep nasties out while it healed itself again.

Aromatically

Diffuser

Diffusing is the most effective way to help disperse the benefits of the essential oils for your entire home.  Your home will smell gorgeous, and help transfer the aromatherapy benefits of essential oils to everyone in the family including the pets.  You can create an upbeat lets get things done with peppermint and wild orange to a serene tranquil vibe for everyone to calm down with balance and lavender peace.

 

Diffuse Essential Oils with Aroma-Bloom

Inhaler

Alternate to a diffuser, you can inhale essential oils directly from the bottle.  Or add a drop to your hands, rub together and cup to your nose.  You can also purchase inhalers which allow you to add a few drops of oil to a cotton wick that sits inside a nasal inhaler.  Some may choose to even fragrance a handkerchief to then bring to your nose and breathe in.

Why not to burn essential oils?

We are always cold diffusing, which means that the essential oils aren’t being broken down and changing the molecular make up of the chemicals.  You may have a memory of incense or candles being burnt that caused instant headaches, aside from them possibly containing synthetics the burning of them can make them toxic.

Safety

Diffusers are also designed to turn off when finished and you can also pre-set the timers, big tick on the safety.  Being cold no little fingers can get burnt either.

Reduce Dust in the air

Cold aroma diffusing has an ionising effect, improving air quality as they release negative ions up into the air that attract to the positive ions, causing the dust to fall to the ground.

Humidifies the air

This is great for all respiratory related issues, as it is aggravated by dry air.
Safer & cleaner – no heat and without condensation, so wet walls & windows or hassle of correct sleep wear for when traditional humidifiers will go out in the night.

Purify the Air

Essential oils such as clove, cinnamon bark, thyme and oregano can help kill the bacteria & fungus present in the air.  On this same note you add a drop of essential oil such as Purify or Tea Tree to cotton wool ball and pop it into your shoes to help eliminate odours.

Which Diffuser to Buy?

I recommend investing in a good quality diffuser so you don’t waste your essential oils, as you will most likely find with cheaper versions you’ll require more oil as it won’t disperse in the room as well. Doterra have a petal diffuser $58 very practical with 1, 2 & 4 hour settings with a night light option.  Or my new favourite is the Lumo Diffuser $104  with 2, 5 and 10 hour settings with the beautiful wooden base and colour therapy with optional rainbow light feature.  I do have a selection of Aroma Blooms, Allure, Aroma Moves, Aroma Sky and O’mm diffuser available too. See link here.

Internally

Yes this does mean you can put the oil in your mouth, again dilution is recommended with most.  Although many will swear by the drop of Frankincense under your tongue daily for emotional support and cellular support.  Frankincense is the hunter and he will find where in your body needs the most support and go there.  Daily I take a couple of drops of essential oil lemon in my morning lemon tea.  Remember not all essential oils are created equally and I only use Doterra essential oils for their high quality testing, pure form free of chemicals and nasties.  Wild Orange in your mineral water is just like fanta without the calories.

Another form of taking internally aside from within drinks is to drop a few drops into a veggie cap and swallow.  I use this form more commonly when I am needing to boost up my immunity, along with an immune bomb roller for my feet and spine I will take a veggie cap every few hours to up the anti, and fight off the nasties.

How to Earn an Income with Doterra

You’re loving your oils and have been curious how people can cover your order and more from sharing them.  

Sharing the benefits and helping others lead a natural healthier lifestyle has been a passion of mine for many years.  Fortunately, I had a couple of people share with me the beautiful Doterra Essential Oils and I could immediately see the ripple effect sharing these with others could have for better physical, emotional and mental health.  Personally, I would shout the benefits of Doterra from the rooftops even if I wasn’t being paid.  However this company is so very generous it has given back and fulfilled many of my dreams in so many ways, at the forefront being empowered to help my family be proactive with their health and kick things to the curb early.  Having partaken directly in activities to help support communities in third world countries a fundamental philosophy behind Doterra’s mission.  Through to being generously compensated for work that is very fulfilling.  Many have asked me about how they can build a Doterra business also.

To progress consistency is key, belief in product and confidence in yourself.  The beautiful part about doTerra is its community be it to learn how to use your products for different ailments or conditions to surrounding yourself with uplifting, encouraging and motivating people.  In traditional work and having worked in roles that took me all over the world to meet partners and give presentations, create agreements never have I been able to progress this quickly nor was this type of income ever going to be available to me in those organisations.  Secondly as its my own business I have complete flexibility over my hours and my growth.  I have also run my own business and I can still say even coupling Doterra with my existing business as they go hand in hand, I have far greater flexibility and financial freedom then I even dreamed possible.  Here’s how the ranks work:

Executive ~ 2000 OV

Executive means your team has an Overall volume (OV) of 2000.  This volume comes from each time someone in your team makes an purchase going towards your OV.   This includes new enrolments, existing members orders including Loyalty Rewards Program (LRP) Doterra’s generous points program as well as one time only orders.  Average time to achieve takes 1-3 months.

Elite ~ 3000 OV 

Elite is 3000 OV from within your team, this is an important first rank of acknowledgement as this is the level that your orders will pay for themselves and plus a little.  I achieved Elite in one month.  It is very achievable and average time frame is up to 6 months.  On average a class will have 500 OV. 

Focus: Build Belief in the Product, Courage to share experiences (personal and others), invite to change lives.

LEADERSHIP RANKS

Bonuses come into play and residual income is evident from the Leadership Ranks, it also opens you to extra support groups, and access to some events set for Leadership ranks.

Premier ~ 5000 OV with 2 Executives

Premier is the first understanding of building volume within groups in your team.  Overall you need 5000 OV made up of 2 personally enrolled leaders that are in separate teams in your organisation with 2000 OV each, Executives. The remaining 1000 OV can be included in your own personal order and another team within your organisation.  Tip is to look at having two leaders have 4 classes each for the month and you have a couple of classes.    This took me less than 60 days to achieve.  On average it is 8 months.  I like to help assist my team set up for this rank from the time they get going to help place them in the best position for future growth opportunities.  Empowerment Bonus is paid out to those that achieve the rank of Premier each month and have also personally enrolled 1 new person that month with an enrolment order of 100pv or greater.  The Empowerment Bonus is 1 share which is from $200 – $290 paid each month.

Focus: Belief in the Company & Opportunity, with integrity, present in the message.  Grow trust to enrol.

Silver ~ 9000 OV  with 3 Elites 

Silver rank is achieved when you have 3 separate teams with 3000 OV each, Elites, your total OV will be 9000 or greater.  Personally I reached Silver within my first 2 months, double ranking past Premier in 60 days. On average it is 13 months.  First time access to the Leadership pool, which you will receive 1 share as a bonus for the month.  As a Silver you will also receive the Empowerment Bonus highlighted under Premier of $200 – $290 additional bonus for enrolling at least one new personal per month.  As a Silver, DoTerra also reward you with your own personal account manager to help guide you in future planning, and extra hands to support you along your journey.

Focus: Build Belief in You.  With Commitment, model success habits, Solidify certainty.

Gold ~ 15 000 OV with  3 Premiers 

To reach Gold we identify our 3 Leaders that will achieve the rank of Premier – 5000 OV in 3 separate teams in your organisation, and will assist them in growing their 2 Executives each.  Mapping these all out is an important phase of this rank.  15 000 OV  would be the minimum for you to reach this rank. It took 10 months to achieve Gold, and was in my first month of Diamond Club.  On the average it takes 14 months to reach.  You will receive 5 shares of the Leadership Pool per month.

Focus: Build Belief in Your Builders.  With love, transfer vision.  Nurture a team culture of duplication.

Platinum ~ 27 000 OV with 3 Silvers

To reach Platinum you will have helped 3 leaders with separate teams in your organisation reach Silver, a very exciting rank for your leaders that will inspire their own teams to reach higher.  Platinum takes 23 months to achieve on average.    27 000 OV  would be the minimum for you to reach this rank. Receiving per month 10 shares of the Leadership pool.  This is a beautiful stage as it allows your leaders to take on a more hands on leadership role for their teams.

Focus: Build Belief in Your Team.  With Gratitude, expand community & leadership.  Amplify momentum.

Diamond ~ 36 000 OV with 4 Silvers 

Diamond is really the pinnacle of all your efforts, very prestigious and respected doTERRA rank.  Deep appreciation  for the many lives that you have reached and empowered in many ways.  As a Diamond you will have 4 Silver teams, and each of their teams will have 3 Elite teams.   36 000 OV  would be the minimum for you to reach this rank.  On average it takes 36 months to achieve working consistently.  A point at which many leaders consider retiring their partner.  This took me 24 months to achieve, during my second Diamond Club journey, double ranking skipping Platinum.

Focus: Build Belief in Your Why.   With Diligence, inspire and lead a movement.  Multiply abundance.

Blue Diamond ~ 75 000 OV with 5 Golds 

An amazing achievement with 5 Gold Leaders in separate teams in your organisation see you reach Blue Diamond.    75 000 OV  would be the minimum for you to reach this rank.  I am excited for my team to reach this rank as I know many have their sights set on being Gold Leaders or beyond and how this growth will boost their team to new levels. 

Focus: Build Your Belief in Your Influence.  With humility, infuse passion for you purpose.  Cultivate empowered leaders.

Presidential Diamond ~ 162 000 OV with 6 Platinums 

Supporting 6 of your leaders in separate legs achieve the rank of Platinum or beyond will see you achieve Presidential Diamond.   An amazing feat and your positive sphere of influence will have expanded further than you ever imagined.

In beginning of 2017 there were 2 Australian Presidential Diamonds and by the end of  2017 there were 8.

Tips for building successfully:

~ Take one step at a time, focus on setting up classes, or One on One catch ups, online or in person to achieve the goal of Elite.  This can be done in one class.

~ Understand placing to build for rank and encouraging baby sharers to participate on the journey with you.

~ Be consistent with the way you educate your team be it via social media, team meetings, emails or combination.

~ Stack classes at the beginning of the month, understand the promotions of the month and educate them to your team.

~ Engage in regular personal & professional development to stay motivated and carry you through this journey

~ Have a clear understanding of your why, and share it with others.  Incorporate oils throughout your daily life.

~ Engage in your community –  your friends will notice.

I encourage you to share with an open heart and mind to help serve others lead a healthier, happier life.  There is someone out their waiting.  My underlying passion and why  is that these beautiful essential oils came into my life too late to help special loved ones.  Please reach out to all those around you, as you never know what somebody maybe going through behind their smile.

Taking Essential Oils Eternally To Eat or Not to Eat?  That is the question……

 

One of the first things that really intrigued me was taking Essential Oils internally the idea that I could put a couple of drops of lemon into my morning water was very appealing in a convenience sense.  However, I questioned how it would affect my body.  I researched and consulted others with a scientific background and interest in the health industry.

 

It simply came down to this, I knew in every day foods that I consumed there were food colourings and additives.  So why wouldn’t I try an essential oil derived directly from the plant, distilled and ensuring there are no synthetics added.  It was a no brainer.   My morning ritual for over a decade, relied on lemons and not only were they expensive, also a stressor if I was going away as I would need to have lemons first thing in the morning.  It is so ingrained into my daily habitats. This helps rehydrate, cleanse and get the metabolism going for the day.  I had been using real lemons but at times they were inaccessible – too expensive, unavailable or I forgot to buy them.  So I had Lemon Squeeze as a backup.  However that itself is full of preservatives and additives.  To get something from the real thing in the most potent, pure form was amazing.

 

Over a year of using the lemon essential oil I noticed my teeth sensitivity had diminished, to the point of almost being non-existent, I didn’t need sensitive tooth paste anymore.  I am certain it has to do with not having that acidity from the lemon essential oil a huge bonus for me.

 

Cooking with Essential Oils has definitely enhanced my culinary expertise.  It is fun to experiment and add extra flavour enhancers knowing its not adding calories.  Some of my favourites are Peppermint Brownies, Jaffa Slice, Bliss Balls Apricot and Ginger, Apple Pie Slice with Cinnamon and Cardamon, Chai Latte.  Then to whip something up for dinner and have a little Lemongrass and Ginger add into spice up the Stirfry or Oregano and Basil for Italian.  Salad Dressings with Lime, Lemon and Spearmint so refreshing.  Completely non-exhaustive list.

 

 

When you think about Essential Oils they have been around since the beginning of time, and are found in the pharmaceutical industry, make up, perfume, cleaning, and food industry.  It certainly came as a surprise they are most commonly found in the food industry, think about multinational giant Coke a Cola they use essential oils as part of their flavouring.  If we be honest with ourselves can you fully interpret the ingredients on packages?

 

As a devoted health professional, wholefoods are key for me and knowing that the essential oils come directly from the plant product itself without any additives reassures my questioning side.  When selecting goods off a shelf I am looking for wholefoods listed on the ingredients and not numbers or names I can’t pronounce.

 

This is where you can see not all oils are created equal you can purchase oils from the supermarket or over the counter.  I have done exactly that, however they don’t work as well and aren’t in the purest form.  The support and community from Doterra has really changed my life in the most beautiful way.  At my fingertips I have access to members support groups that will respond to my queries in minutes for all array of things from basic first aid, beauty tips and emotional support.  Knowing someone else has gone through this before.  I put my faith and backing in Doterra Essential Oils knowing they are Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade CPTG, that they wouldn’t allow any contamination of an oil.  That the oils are produced and harvested from plants in their indigenous habitat and as a result helping small communities often very remote with education and water available on tap.  This is Doterras strong social and community ethical work that makes me proud to be associated with them.

Glowing Healthy skin with Salubelle and Verage Skin Care Kit

With years of sun damage and a family history of poor skin, I am under doctors orders for regular skin check ups.  A year ago I was most alarmed to see a growth occuring on my nose, and sought the advice of two doctors and had a referral set to go to specialist to have this suspicious growth removed.

This was the same time that Doterra had released a special that I could receive Salubelle, anit-aging roll on.  Also known as botox in a bottle for free.  At over $129 retail I was super excited to have this for free just by placing an order of essential oils and facial cleaning product, Verage Skincare.

I have been so pleased with the results, and haven’t stopped using Verage since I ordered my first.  It comes with:

  • Gel cleanser
  • Spritz Toner – so easy to apply
  • Hydrating serum – this is the bomb, so nourishing for the skin.
  • Pump moisturiser

All infused with beautiful essential oils to help repair and nourish the skin.  I have seen it help immensely with acne, pigmentation, dryness and general aging.  All four of these products are only $133 for retail.  Or you can set up a wholesale account and save $33 right away.

Back to salubelle it really did magical things for me and can’t recommend enough that you give this one a go.  It is my most used roller oil by far in the Doterra Essential Oil range.
