Young Living Essential Oils

Young Living – The Founders

I know that a first glance at this photo would tell you that these two definitely are not too young, however, their story begins several years prior… Gary Young experienced an inner pull toward a subject and genre near and dear to his heart — farming.

Having grown up travelling all over the world, experiencing a myriad of cultures and ways of living, he became extremely invested in the discovery of essential oils and the difference they could make within a variety of contexts and cultures. He had a passion for history: of cultures, geography, and traditions combined, which turned into a mixture of ideas swarming around in his head for how to turn an interest into an investment and make an impact.

The uniqueness of their product compared with other essential oils of the same kind is that all oils are totally naturally derived, without the incorporation of harmful chemicals like formaldehyde, parabens or sulfates. While other companies have begun the making of essential oils, Young Living remains the pioneer and continues to draw customers through its localized availability and delivery.

To add to the benefits, a good portion of the proceeds from sales go toward ecosystem preservations and cultivating events like Employee Service Day. Young Living seeks to create lasting impact from the Young’s first passion to future generations.

    Great research on this one, as one with a mother who uses essential oils this one caught my eye. It is always cool to see people, in this case Gary, use what they love to do and not only turn in into a business, but then use that business to help others. It is also cool how his blend of cultural perspectives is what led him to this; a testament to what learning about the way other cultures do things can help raise the global standard of living.
