A very educational book on essential oils and D. Gary Young's story about how he founded Young Living. I learned a lot regarding the process that is taken to make 100% pure essential oils. I would suggest this book to anyone that wants to learn more about essential oils and Young Living.

I did not realize how much goes into finding, producing a pure product, packaging and marketing the essential oils. And his life story is amazing too. What a determined, disciplined and loving man.

He remained curious and loved to learn. He honored the land, living in reciprocity and caring so much for the earth which gives us life and healing.
