Quarterly Education Event - August 1, 2009

It's time for another fun, yet informative, event on August 1st from 10am to 9pm.
Brazos Center, Room 106 in Bryan (off Briarcrest, behind the "new" Target)

Come and go or stay all day!

10:00 Beginning with Essential Oils
Come learn about essential oils--you’ll get nose-on experience with the oils, learn safety precautions, and gain confidence to take home with you! This class is designed to give the basics so beginners feel confident to start using oils, as well as for experienced “oilers” to learn from each other. We'll be covering a basic set of oils and a wide variety of ways to use them. Essential oils are the primary tools we (Peter & Amy) use at home… because we’ve found the oils to work consistently and efficiently!

12:00 Young Living Business Leader Luncheon
RSVP if interested

1:30-3:30 Environmental Body Burden
with Neil Carman, PhD
Dr Carman will present the scientific findings concerning environmental toxicity and it's effects on us. This presentation provides eye opening information!

Neil has a Ph.D. in plant chemistry from the University of Texas at Austin at a top laboratory dedicated to natural products research and has been studying plant-based essential oils since 1970. He earned a BS and MS from the University of Iowa in Botany where he began his studies of plant chemistry in 1966 extracting and analyzing for specific phytochemical substances. Neil has given many lectures on the science behind essential oils. Since receiving his Ph.D. in 1973, he has been working in the environmental science field. Dr. Carman currently resides in Austin.

3:30-5:00 What Now? How to deal with Environmental Toxicity: A Panel Discussion
This is a time to discuss ways to avoid exposure, protect from exposure and cleanse from exposure to environmental toxins. Many of you have asked us questions about cleansing--this is a wonderful forum to have your questions answered!

January 24, 2009
10:00am - 9:00pm
Brazos Center, Bryan Room 106

10:00am -11:30am Beginning with Essential Oils
Especially for beginners, this class will expose you to the Everyday Oils Kit (9 essential oils with which you can address most issues that come up in daily life) and it's uses, as well as the basics of essential oil applications and history. This class is, however, equally useful for long-time essential oil users because the "oilers" present share their ever increasing experience with the oils. I learn something every time! [Remember to bring a friend--you know, the one who has asked you a million questions about the oils, or the one you know needs the oils, or the one who is always using your oils,...]

11:30am - 12:30pm Essential Oils & Animals
At our November event, we had such a fascinating discussion on this topic develop right in our beginning class--I thought the topic deserved it's own time. For all animal enthusiasts, come learn (and share) your experiences.

12:30pm - 1:30pm Business Builders' Lunch
Exclusively for business builders in our Free Spirit Team (that's anywhere in our YL organization), this lunch is an opportunity for us to focus on the income potential that YL provides. I've got some fun surprises planned, so be sure to RSVP! Pre-registration is required so that we'll have enough supplies.

2:00pm - 4:00pm "How to Have a Healthy, Green Home with Young Living Essential Oils" with Judy DeRuvo
I am so excited about this topic! Judy is joining us from Austin to share her vast knowledge and experience with the oils. If you've never been to one of Judy's presentations, you're in for a treat. Judy has studied with world leaders in essential oils, including Dr. Jean-Claude LaPraz and Gary Young (in the US, Egypt & Ecuador). She has an engaging style, chock-full of information. This topic represents a synthesis of many, and provides an overview of the healthy lifestyle that Young Living supports.

4:30pm - 5:30pm Essential Oil Scientific Journal Club with Peter Minke, PhD
This seminar provides a brief overview of the scientific literature that documents the ability of many essential oils to protect DNA from mutations and damage.

7:00pm - 9:00pm Couple Massage
In this much-acclaimed, and asked for, class you will learn a simple, seated, Swedish massage routine. (That means all clothes stay on....) You'll be seated at a table so it'll be easy to transport your learning to your home environment--no massage table needed. Come with a partner--spouse, caregiver, etc. Pre-registration required (space is limited and this class tends to fill up). Cost: $20/couple.

All events (except "Couple Massage") are FREE. Texas Massage Therapists may earn up to 6.5 hours of continuing education.
