Hi Sol, I don't know about YL oils, but I've had experience with some and not all are dangerous to apply directly to the skin. In Ayurveda, applying certain essential oils directly to marma points can bring about dramatic changes. Sally

This is simply multi-marketing advertising, and also as I said, extremely dangerous. Both humans and animals (especially cats) have been harmed by their recommended uses of oils. It is never safe to ignore basic chemistry. I cannot state strongly enough that one needs to turn to a reputable source of information on the chemistry of essential oils, such as Aromatherapy, An A-Z by Patricia Davis. Fooling around with "recommendations" from a multi-marketing company with a poor record of safety is taking a huge leap of faith into serious risk and danger, no matter what their marketing claims are. sol Essentially Sasha wrote: > Christine, > > Go to YoungLivingOils.com.
