Why have I chosen to work with Essential Oils?

After two decades of teaching yoga and meditation, the reality is, I haven’t been able to save for the future. A dream of mine was to be freely philanthropic, save for retirement, and be able to live more easefully.

Having opened a doTERRA account several years ago as a customer, I have witnessed the oils support me in ways that I can’t even recount, but I will try here: 

• Clarity of my skin and reduction of fine lines

• Emotional Wellness

• Mental Clarity

• Eliminated scars from second degree burn on my hand  

• Enhanced immunity during the “VID”

• Reduced inflammation in my body

• Supported the balance of my hormones

• Supported me during two surgeries in reducing anxiety and enhancing recovery

At that time, I was sharing the oils with my yoga students, trainees, and clients, offering up an emphatic ‘no’ to the business, when I finally sat down with Elena Brower.

Her leadership in doTERRA has shown me that I could grow a thriving business sharing the efficacy of essential oils with my community. The essential oils have always been a huge part of my life; they have been a non-negotiable for me no matter where I’ve been and what I’ve done with my life or my career. 

As I move through small shifts in my own personal life, my life has always revolved around learning and teaching, researching, and connecting, giving back and investing in meaningful ways. From clear medical evidence to simple daily rituals, this type of plant medicine has taught me volumes about how to live my life with more presence and better health.

Why doTERRA? 
Our company was founded in 2008, with a commitment to establishing patterns of giving. There are no outside investors; the founders personally funded the startup and own 100% of the company. Back then, they took second mortgages, scaled back, and worked without pay in order to own their work and make their own choices. doTERRA is now the largest oil company in the world, debt-free. Here is a sweet introduction to one of my personal heroes, Emily Wright.

We are family-focused and empowerment-centric. 
Mamas, babies, and families are welcomed, encouraged, and supported at classes and conferences. One of the seven founders, Emily Wright, is a mother of four; her commitment to our families is felt.

Healing Hands offers support to Operation Underground Railroad, also known as OUR, an organization committed to rescuing children from sex trafficking in several countries, with operations happening regularly. Our donations also help fund the construction of safe house facilities in Thailand, Cambodia and Haiti where rescued children are educated, cared for and rehabilitated in safety back to freedom through Rapha House. We’re also helping 3 Strands to educate, empower and engage students and teachers all over the world to observe signs of human trafficking, take precautions and practice preventive measures to keep children safe from these predators. Listen to a recent podcast about 3 Strands here.

Days for Girls, another organization to which doTERRA offers support, educates both girls and women to empower feminine health, providing sustainable feminine hygiene and care. Having served over one million girls and women to date, Days for Girls affords these girls and women dignified education and supplies in order to function in society during their cycle so they aren’t missing chances to learn and grow out of poverty. Without sustainable solutions to manage their monthly cycle, women are abolished from society for the duration of their menstrual time every single month. More than 1 in 10 girls in Sub-Saharan Africa, 113 million adolescent girls in India, and 30% of girls from rural areas of Brazil would miss school each year without the help of Days for Girls.

Our Oils are of the highest quality. 
Pure, high quality, optimally-sourced Oils are at the heart of our success. Working closely with smallholder farmers, we ensure that these families are able to maintain their traditions and optimize growing and harvesting practices, form cooperatives for more bargaining power, eliminate middlemen, and get paid on time. In the villages where we grow, harvest and distill our Oils, we help renovate and build schools, much-needed medical facilities and infrastructure for clean water. As a result, the farmers are equally as committed to us.  Visit Source to You for detailed information on sourcing, quality and testing of our Oils, including our projects in Bulgaria, Kenya, Madagascar, Nepal, Guatemala, Haiti, Somaliland and beyond. Watch the video below and learn about how DoTERRA sources their oils.

Our testing practices are stringent. 
For transparent accountability, we’ve created a standard called Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® (CPTG), verified by respected third party labs. This standard is based on stringent testing throughout the entire process, from the monitoring of soil quality to testing for chemicals and adulterants in every liter of Oil. All of the basics are checked first: sight, smell, taste and touch. Then the lab rules out any presence of fungus, mold, pesticides, extenders and any other contaminants. If you wish to learn more, the science of the testing practices is here.

Each location has its own specific laws and rules governing agriculture and collecting wild-crafted botanicals. If an Oil fails the test, there is no secondary process for removing the pesticides or foreign matter; that batch is simply rejected. Other than the careful distillation of the Oils from the plant material, no other processing takes place. In each bottle, you are experiencing pure aromatic extracts; nothing added, nothing removed.

We focus on your education. 
On doTERRA’s site, you’ll find hundreds of hours of free education, guidance, recipes and other support for both oil users and those building businesses.

And when you create your own account with my team, I’ve linked you to an extensive private educational website created by Elena Brower, full with archives and resources to help you learn about the Oils and grow your own thriving business if you wish.

Once you’ve arranged your own wholesale account here, I’ll receive a notification, and will email your access link and a proper welcome.

We are helping you clear your home of toxic products and chemicals. 
Harsh, toxic chemicals have no place in our cleaning and family care. From On Guard Cleaner Concentrate, Detergent, Hand Soap, Toothpaste, Mouthwash, and bar soap to all the Oils I use to diffuse and clean the air in our home, the plant molecules provide natural protection in a non-toxic and biodegradable way, to clean and keep us safe.

Our connection to each other. 
As we consistently connect as a team, I’m reminded of why this is a good choice for me. I love teaching yoga and meditation, but I also love switching on my business brain and empowering myself to reach past where I thought I could go, in order to cultivate a thriving organization of my own.

We are exchanging information on how to take radical responsibility for our health, based on our findings and our own experiences. Together we are empowering families to lead and learn, grow, and earn well.

CONSULT

I consider myself an alchemist. I can make customized oils for you based on your symptoms, ailments and issue(s). I would love to support you and educate you on how to take responsibility for your health using oils. I DO NOT go online and search for oil remedies - I consult with doctors, and professionals in my field, use reliable educational tools, and my own intuition (guided by your responses) to create a blend just for you. This blend can support your healing, but remember I will NEVER suggest that you REPLACE a medical visit or doctor advice. Please reach out for a FREE confidential consult.

No text book, yoga practice, meditation, chanting, or astrology reading could have ever prepared me for raising children; let alone two young women who are just like me.  And I’m choosing to traverse this journey consciously, which has required maximum effort and offered infinite opportunities of love, compassion, and empathy.   

My mothering is my deepest offering, so I want to be awake as possible - even when it hurts.

In my day to day - I continue expand ways of connecting in order to…

·      Strip away illusion
·      Reduce the density of my own being
·      Awaken to deeper dimensions of healing

…so I may be of service while I am here roaming this planet. 

All of the things I currently “do” now … writing, teaching, facilitating, leading, mothering, being … all bring me closer to these manifestations.   And the essential oils portion of Dana Damara Evolution, is one of them. 

If you are interested in learning more about essential oils for wellness in body, mind and spirit, or if you'd like to mentor directly with me and build a thriving business that will bring you to another level of wealth consciousness and empowerment, I am here to show you the way. I can't wait to hear from you!

I am committed to teach you and your friends who are interested in improving their health with pure essential oils. I offer a variety of gifts for each host, depending on your wants and needs such as free oils, or a new diffuser. You'll have fun with your friends and become empowered as a healer in your home! Contact me below to schedule your class, or for more information about my free upcoming events
