mint family and is one of our most popular oils? Young Living has
three farms that grow lavender, located in Utah, Idaho, and France.

Dioscorides, a physician pharmacologist and botanist, praised the
many qualities and uses of lavender. You can find Lavender
essential oil in many Young Living blends, including Stress Away™,
Tranquil™, RutaVaLa™, Forgiveness™, and Harmony™.
