Become the “healer” in your home Using Essential Oils I was recently introduced to doTERRA Essential Oils. It made sense to move to a more natural approach to replace over-the-counter medicine and products. After all, I was already taking a more natural approach to living and striving for a non-toxic home environment for my family. At first, I wasn’t convinced of the ”benefits” to essential oils. So, I started slow. I bought an introductory kit and experimented with some of the basics. Then I began to use the oils to help with sore muscles, fighting off colds and flus, headaches and especially with stress. Now the oils are part of my daily routine and especially my nightly sleep ritual. The essential oils are a great way to enhance fertility in addition to your healthy lifestyle and diet choices. For recommended oils that specifically target fertility, check out my blog with Licensed Midwife Stephanie Fritz - here My only disappointment with the essential oils was not starting them sooner. I love the essential oils! Here’s why: They are safe for everyone in the family, even pets. They are safe for topical, aromatic AND internal use (only doTERRA brand) They work! Seriously. They are affordable. They match our principles of avoiding synthetic chemicals. “doTERRA’s Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oils are guaranteed to be 100% pure and natural and free of synthetic compounds or contaminates. They are subjected to rigorous mass spectrometry and gas chromatography testing to ensure extract composition and activity. doTERRA’s 100% pure essential oils represent the safest and most beneficial essential oils available today.” Interested in trying them yourself? Here’s how: Visit our doTerra webpage to purchase at retail prices; OR, open wholesale account to purchase at a discount (that’s what I did). There are 2 ways to purchase doTERRA oils: retail or wholesale. 1. Retail: Our online store: http://www.mydoterra.com/sarahclark6/#/ 2. Wholesale: Preferred Member or Wellness Advocate Preferred Members: Pay a one-time fee of $10 and receive 25% off retail prices. Wellness Advocate (WA): Pay only $35 and receive 25% off retail prices, plus perks. Don’t let the title – WA– scare you. You DO NOT have to sell or market the product. Instead, think of it as the ideal way to receive greatest discount, free products, cash points, and in some cases - commissions, for sharing with friends and family. Preferred members and WA’s can (and should) participate in the Loyalty Rewards Program (similar to programs like frequent flyer miles or points on credit cards). It’s optional, but so worth it. More on this later. There are 3 ways to use the oils: as a user, sharer, or business (builder). Most people fall into the “sharer” category. A Wellness Advocate account costs $35/year* (aka wholesale account.) It’s a lot like purchasing a membership to Costco - one annual fee for savings all year long. (Membership renewal is only $25 each year, PLUS you’ll automatically get a free bottle of peppermint oil - which retails at $27, so it’s a wash.) In my opinion, a Wellness Advocate account is your best option. There is no pressure to sell products or host parties. You are free to use the oils and share your experience with others as/if you wish. * To waive the $35 enrollment fee: Purchase an Enrollment Kit. This is not required, but it is the best way and most cost effective way to get started. Here are just two of my Favorite Enrollment Kits: The Home Essential Kit: I started with this kit. The Home Essential Kit ($388): HOME ESSENTIALS ENROLLMENT KIT Frankincense (15 mL) Lavender (15 mL) Lemon (15 mL) Melaleuca (15 mL) Oregano (15 mL) Peppermint (15 mL) Breathe (15 mL) ® DigestZen (15 mL) On Guard® (15 mL) Deep Blue® (5 mL) Petal Diffuser dōTERRA Wellness Advocate Introductory Packet* Enrollment fee $ 35 is waived ® The Natural Solutions Kit ($777): The Lotus Diffuser, (5 ml) bottles of: Purify, Deep Blue®, Elevation, Serenity, Balance, eucalyptus, DigestZen®, wild orange, grapefruit, lemongrass, marjoram, AromaTouch®, oregano, lime.

Select “Join as a new Wellness Advocate” or Preferred Member (depending on what you decided. Still not sure, contact me at sarah.clark@sesacoaching.ca and we can discuss further). 3. The “Enroller ID” and “Sponsor ID” boxes should already be filled in for you. But if not, enter _______ in both boxes. 4. Fill out your name, billing address, shipping address, and contact info. (NOTE: For IPC account: The reason you are asked to list your social insurance number of social secuirty is for tax purposes. If you make over $600/year selling doTERRA products, you will receive a 1099 form in the mail or Revenue Canada form, as is required by law. doTERRA will never share this info with anyone.) 5. Select your time zone and choose a virtual office password. 6. Agree to Terms & Conditions and the Virtual Office User Agreement. 7. Select your enrollment order. This is where you can specify which enrollment kit you would like -OR- if you’d rather not start with a kit, simply select the Introductory Packet ($35) option. You can also purchase other items at this time if you wish. 8. Set up your optional Loyalty Rewards Program (LRP).This is not a requirement, although it is a money-saving way to build your oil collection. doTERRA’s Loyalty Rewards Program (LRP) provides free product credits for monthly purchases ordered on the program and is the most economical way to purchase doTERRA oils. As a participant in the Loyalty Rewards Program, you will immediately begin to earn product credits that can be used as cash to purchase doTERRA products. The longer you participate in the LRP, the more credits you can earn–up to 30% of your total monthly Loyalty Rewards purchases. If you decide that this is something you are interested in, select the products you would like to ship in your first LRP order (which would be next month). You can change the products from month-to-month through your Virtual Office. You will also need to select a ship date. (This is the day each month when you order will go out. I recommend shipping your order before the 15th of each month and writing this down on your calendar so you can go into your virtual office and change your product choice before it ships) 9. You’re done. Congratulations! You will receive a confirmation email– you can log into your back office right away to manage future orders, check out other members on the team of IPC’s, etc.) If you have any questions about signing up or you would like me to do it for you, please feel free to contact me at sarah.clark@sesacoaching.ca.
