A quiet, everyday support
doterra essential oils
doTERRA means “gift of the earth”, and that is how I have come to think of these oils, as a gentle, everyday way of caring for your body and your nervous system.
01 - My doterra story
I was the skeptic
After a run of events that left me with so little energy I could barely walk up a flight of stairs without being out of breath, a friend introduced me to doTERRA.
I was very skeptical. I had tried so many ‘natural’ products that hadn’t helped, and I fully expected to be asking for my money back. Well, I had to eat a lot of humble pie.
Within a couple of weeks I noticed my energy coming back and I was sleeping through the night again. That was my own experience, and it is why I still use the oils every day, to help me rest, when my body feels sore, and as gentle emotional support when I need it.
Now they are part of how I care for myself, and something I often share with the women I work with.
02 - why doterra
why I trust these oils
I believe in science, facts and research, so before choosing an oil company I compared several. doTERRA came out ahead in every comparison I made, I like the values they stand by, and when I tried the oils myself I noticed a difference within a very short time.
EVERY BATCH IS TESTED
Each batch of oil is tested against doTERRA’s own purity standard, called CPTG (Certified Pure Tested Grade), to check it contains what it should and nothing it shouldn’t, with no fillers or synthetic ingredients.
INDEPENDENT LABS CHECK IT TOO
Alongside doTERRA’s own lab, outside third-party labs test the oils as well, so the company is not only marking its own homework.
GROWN WHERE THE PLANTS THRIVE
doTERRA works directly with growers around the world, sourcing each plant from the place it naturally grows best.
YOU CAN SEE THE RESULTS YOURSELF
Every bottle carries a quality ID. Enter it at sourcetoyou.com and you can see the test results for the exact batch in your hands.
the oils I reach for
03 - my everyday oils
FRANKINCENSE
The oil I reach for most. It is often called the king of oils, and I use it to help me feel grounded and come back to a sense of balance.
SERENITY
At bedtime, to help me wind down and settle into sleep.
ADAPTIV, BALANCE AND COPAIBA
I use these three together for my emotional wellbeing, especially on the days that ask a lot of me.
AND WHATEVER I NEED THAT DAY
Beyond these, I reach for different oils and products depending on what my body is asking for.
04 - in our sessions
Support between sessions
I sometimes bring essential oils into our sessions. If you already have oils of your own, bring them along and I will show you how to use them during the week, so you have a little extra support between our time together.
05 - where to start
not sure where to begin?
There is no single kit that suits everyone. Book a complimentary call and we can talk about what you are looking for and which oils would work best for you.
ESSENTIAL OILS ARE OFFERED HERE AS GENTLE EVERYDAY SUPPORT. THEY ARE NOT A TREATMENT OR CURE FOR ANY CONDITION, AND THEY ARE NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR MEDICAL CARE.
06 - Questions
Good to know
-
Lauraine Mann, a psychosomatic practitioner in New York City, chose doTERRA after comparing several essential oil companies. Every batch is tested against doTERRA's own purity standard (CPTG) and checked by independent third-party labs, and each bottle has a quality ID you can look up at sourcetoyou.com. She uses the oils as gentle everyday support, sometimes brings them into sessions, and offers a complimentary call to help you find the oils that suit you.

Not at all. Essential oils are an optional extra, and many of the women I work with never use them. You are welcome in 1:1 sessions, the somatic group, The Wisdom Within or a birth chart reading whether or not oils are part of your life, and there is never any pressure to buy anything.
“For the first time there is something available to help ease my anxiety in the moment it arises. Thank you Lauraine for sharing doTERRA. It has been a serious life saver for me.”
