How Essential Oils Work
by Rebecca Park Totilo
Clinical research has discovered that essentials oils have the highest frequency of any natural substance. Electrical properties and charges of essential oils carry electrons or negative ions, which are healing and healthful.[1]
A healthy human body ranges from 62 to 68 MHz. The air breathed, food eaten, and other factors cause frequency levels to drop. Examples of the Taino Technology study reveal:
At 58 MHz cold and flu symptoms may appear.
At 55 MHz diseases like Candida and arthritis may take hold.
At 42 MHz cancer may set in.
At 25 MHz death begins.[2]
The essence or life-blood of the plant carries a live frequency—ranging from 52 MHz to 320 MHz.
Using therapeutic grade essential oils on a daily basis keeps body frequencies at a healthy level, prevents disease, and even reverses damage.
Research has shown that the number one cause for depression is the loss of oxygen around the pineal and pituitary glands. They have also discovered that with careful application of these oils to the soles of the feet, it enables the oil to reach every cell in the body within 20 minutes.[3] This may be why people in biblical times lived so long.
Principal essential oils contain various constituents, including these three compounds: phenylpropanoids, sesquiterpenes, and monoterpenes.[4] These three constituents are unique to essential oils and are produced naturally by the plant with the intelligence and capacity to do the following:
Phenylpropanoids – cleanse the receptor sites.
Sesquiterpenes – erase the incorrect information in the DNA or cellular memory.
Monoterpenes – reprogram the cellular intelligence back to God’s original plan with correct information.
Sesquiterpenes carry oxygen to the brain and stimulate the pineal and pituitary glands. Three of the four oils in the world with the highest known concentration of sesquiterpenes are biblical oils: Cedarwood, Sandalwood, and Spikenard.

The Bandits’ Blend (Band of Thieves Essential Oil Blend)
While essential oils such as Clove Bud, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus and Rosemary all have incredible benefits and healing properties individually, as a synergy blend they are even more powerful. Research at Weber State University has found when these essential oils are diffused they have a 99% kill rate against airborne bacteria. Other case studies concluded similar results demonstrating this combination of essential oils is proven to eradicate viruses and bacteria related sicknesses within minutes.
As the name ‘Bandits’ Blend’ indicates, this is what many believe to be a closest formula to the essential oils likely used by the band of thieves in protecting themselves from the Bubonic Plague. Heralded as the hero that stopped England from the ravage of the Bubonic Plague, King James commuted their death sentence in exchange for the secret of their survival. This information is recorded in the Royal English Archive.
Three recipes have been provided for making your own Bandits’ blend. The first recipe is in an undiluted, concentrated form without a carrier oil. Please use caution as all essential oils should be diluted using a carrier oil or alcohol before applying to the skin.
Bandits’ Blend Recipe 1:
Number of Drops
Clove Bud: 50 25 13
Lemon 44 22 11
Cinnamon 25 13 7
Eucalyptus 19 10 5
Rosemary 13 7 4
151 77 40
6.3ml 3.2ml 1.7ml
Bandits’ Blend Recipe 2:
1 Cup Jojoba oil (or another carrier)
1 Tablespoon Clove Bud Essential Oil
1 Tablespoon Lemon Essential Oil
2 ½ Teaspoons Cinnamon Essential Oil
2 Teaspoons Rosemary Essential Oil
2 Teaspoons Eucalyptus Essential Oil
Glass Container
Bandits’ Blend Recipe 3:
Use equal amounts of eucalyptus, rosemary, cinnamon, clove and lemon, then mix with base of olive oil. For instance, when using a two-ounce bottle, place a tablespoon of each essential oil in the bottle. Then fill the rest of the space with olive oil. You can make a larger batch in a pint jar following the same proportion method.
Measurement Conversion:
1 Tablespoon = approx. 1/2 ounce or 3 Teaspoons
To use Bandits’ Blend: Diffuse: 10-15 minutes daily or apply to the bottom of your feet. Another convenient way to use your blend is to carry a pocket diffuser and inhale as you go about your business.
Frankincense Essential Oil Properties & Uses
For more information about the biblical essential oils, please visit our website http://HealWithOil.com. If you are interested in purchasing 100% Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oils, please visit our e-store http://HealWithEssentialOil.com.
Medicinal Properties: Expectorant, Antimicrobial, Immunity-stimulant, and Antidepressant
Traditional Uses: Frankincense is considered the holy anointing oil of the Middle East and has been used in religious ceremonies for thousands of years. It has been used to treat every conceivable illness known to man, which caused it to be more valued more than gold in ancient times. Researchers today have discovered that Frankincense contains sesquiterpenes, which help to stimulate the limbic region of the brain (the center of emotions), as well as the hypothalamus, pineal and the pituitary glands. The hypothalamus is the master gland of the human body, controlling the release of many hormones including the thyroid and growth hormone. Frankincense is being used therapeutically in European hospitals and is being studied for its ability to improve the human growth hormone production.
Other Uses: Frankincense may help with allergies, asthma, depression, ulcers, snake and insect bites, bronchitis, cancer, respiratory infections, diphtheria, headaches, hemorrhaging, herpes, high blood pressure, inflammation, stress, tonsillitis, typhoid, and warts. Because it contains sesquiterpenes, it has the ability to go beyond the blood-brain barrier and helps to elevate the mind in overcoming stress and despair, as well as support the immunity system. It also increases the activity of leukocytes in defense of the body against infection.
Application: Diffuse or apply topically.
Note: Frankincense contains monoterpenes which can reprogram cellular memory and promote permanent healing.
(ORAC) The Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity of Essential Oils Compared to Fresh Vegetables
The ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorption Capacity) assay is a laboratory procedure developed in 1992 at the National Institute of Aging in Silver Springs, Maryland. It is used to measure the antioxidant capacities of many foods, juices, and oils. The higher the ORAC score, the more capable that particular food or oil is of destroying free radicals (Free radicals can cause disease and aging by changing the structure of the body’s cell walls, DNA, and protein, disrupting their important functions), thus retarding the aging process and preventing cancers and other diseases.
Foods with a high ORAC score may be able to protect cells and their components from oxidative damage. Oxygen radicals are chemicals that form naturally inside the body through the process of oxidation. Everyday functions such as digestion and physical activity produce oxygen radicals. Daily exposure to polluted air, rancid food and oxidizing radiation from the sun and electrical appliances also contribute.
An easy to understand example of oxidation is to imagine rust attacking metal. When the rust eats away at the metal, the metal starts to weaken and decay until it can no longer work. This is what happens to our body when free radicals attack it. Organs, cells and other parts of the body can be weakened by oxidation. This leads to diseases such as cancer, skin and heart diseases, senile dementia and osteoarthritis.
Studies have shown that eating foods with a high ORAC score will raise the antioxidant levels in the blood by around 10 to 25%. The ORAC figure suggested by experts is around 5,000 units per day to have a significant effect on plasma and tissue antioxidant levels. Eating eight to ten servings of brightly colored fruits and vegetables or dark greens will help achieve this level.
Here are some examples of ORAC scores:
Fruits and Vegtables Essential Oils
Carrots 210 Sandalwood (Aloes) 160
Oranges 750 Frankincense 630
Beets 840 Rose of Sharon (cistus) 3,860
Raspberries 1,220 Cinnamon 10,340
Strawberries 1,540 Spikenard 54,800
Blueberries 2,400 Myrrh 379,800
Wolfberries 25,300 Clove 1,078,700
Most essential oils score higher than most fruits and vegetables, as the two tables above suggest. In fact, essential oils have the highest ORAC scores of all substances in the world. An ounce of Clove Oil has the antioxidant capacity of 320 pounds of carrots, 28 quarts of blueberries, or 10 gallons of beet juice. The exceptionally high ORAC scores of essential oils partially explains why living with them in your daily environment – to breathe, eat, and apply to your body – can support all of your systems and contribute effectively towards long healthful living, even when used in very small quantities, and even when only inhaling them.

Myrrh In The Book of Revelation – Smurna: Suffering Church In The Last Days
The Greek word for myrrh is “smurna,” which shares the same root name of the city and church mentioned in the book of Revelation. Smyrna was the second church of the seven churches of Asia John was instructed to write in Revelation 2:8-11. Interestingly, this church was distinguished as being persecuted and understood the bitterness of mistreatment for the sake of the Gospel.
Myrrh has been known to promote a feeling of security and acts as well as a pain-reliever, which is why the Romans added it to the sour wine and offered it to Yeshua on the cross.
Did you know we are going to smell his coming? Psalm 45:8 says, “All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.” His garments will be scented with these fragrances!
In Biblical times, the Hebrews scattered fresh leaves, twigs, and stems of fresh mint, marjoram and other herbs on the dirt floors of homes and synagogues. By walking on these, the fragrant oils would be released into the air. This practice was also common in the temple, where they sacrificed animals where the scent acted as a disinfectant as well as an air freshener.

The Story of Thieves Essential Oil
Editor Note: Here is an interesting youtube video on the story of Thieves essential oil (TM) of Young Living Oil. I found this historical information very interesting and thought you would too. We no longer carry or distribute YL essential oils because our personal calling and devotion is to the Bride of Christ and preparing her for the Messiah’s return. The Lord has placed it on my heart to prepare the bride as today’s priesthood and the importance of using the oils for anointing and healing. They must be pure and not profaned (treated common). We didn’t want our message or mission with Heal With Oil to be compromised with a MLM business and confuse folks with the mixture of religions. YL is a pioneer organization of the aromatherapy movement in the United States and for that I am grateful, but because they purpose is to sell to anyone/everyone whether they are wiccan, pagan, Mormon, Christian, etc. promoting new age ideas, we feel it necessary to find essential oils that are of the same therapeutic grade quality on our own, without the association of another beliefs. We believe essential oils work to heal the body but feel the calling of the healing arts must be returned to priesthood and all glory given to the Creator, who is the God that heals. We don’t worship the creation, but the creator of Heaven and Earth, Yahweh. Visit our website at http://www.HealWithEssentialOil.com or http://www.HealWithOil.com.
Aromatic Essential Oils Kill Deadly Bacteria
From the October 1998 issue of Prevention Magazine, pg 144
Oregano, thyme and rosewood oils appear to destroy the species of bacteria that can cause pneumonia. In a lab study of 74 different oils, researchers found that these three oils were the most effective against the bacteria strain S. Pneumoniae as well as several types of fungi. Read more about the science behind therapeutic-grade essential oils.
“We first investigated this because of a chance observation during an unrelated experiment,” says Diane Horne, PhD, professor of microbiology at Weber State University in Ogden, UT. “We noticed that pneumonia cells just fell apart when exposed to certain aromatic sprays.”
Although the research is still at a very early stage, it’s conceivable that aromatherapy with the three oils may eventually become a helpful tool for controlling pneumonia infections.
###
There is scientific research all over showing us how effective essential oils can be, everything from uplifting our mood to combating some stubborn species of mold, germs and viruses.
Historic Uses of Essential Oils
Please visit http://HealWithOil.com for more information regarding Biblical essential oils.
The many varied uses of aromatherapy essential oils date back from in the early Egyptian times. There has been a major rise in the use of aromatherapy in Western civilization in just the past few years. The scientifical term for aromatherapy is also known as the term psychoneuroimmunology. This form of science is the study of the immune, neurological, and psychological systems. Our immune systems are greatly effected by our negative as well as positive experiences throughout our entire life. This hypothesis has been proven through scientific and medical studies over the course of many years and is there are plenty of excellent sources to back this us.
By using aromatherapy, all five our senses are used, but the sense of scent is most used. What we smell goes directly to our brain which then sends a signal to our body”s limbic system. These scents cause positive direct results in our actions, memory retention, emotions, and feelings.
Aromatherapy provides the body with a medicinal approach to relaxation. Essential oils are used in many different ways. You can apply these drops to your bath water, place the essential oil in a room diffuser, directly inhale the oils into your nose, or massage them into your skin. Whichever method you choose to apply the oils is totally up to you. You may experiment with each method until you find the one that matches your needs and likes.
There is a wide array of essential oils available on today”s market. Each oil has a specific use which, in turn, allows you to be able to choose what method and type of essential oil is right for your specific needs.
Ylang Ylang has a sweet, strong and exotic smell to it. This oil is extracted through a distillation process. These oil is derived from the Canago odorato which is also referred to as Ylang Ylang.
If you prefer a sweet feminine smell, Neroli may be the choice for you. This scent is processed through steam distilling from the petals on the Citrus auratium tree. This scent is now considered to be the most pricey oil being sold in the market and is usually sold as a cut form.
Jasmine has a floral scent which is a bit sweet and exotic. Jasminum officinale is the source of this oil.
Lavender is considered to be one of the mostly widely used essential oils and has so many benefits and uses. The scent is a very light floral smell and comes from the Lavandula augustifolia tree.
Some people find Sandalwood to be very unique because of its sensual and woody scent. This scent has been around for years and comes from the Satalum album tree.
There are many more essential oil scents to choose from. With so many scents to choose from, you should have no problem finding one especially for your taste. Always make sure your essential oil is diluted before applying. Essential oils are very potent, thus a large amount is not necessary for each application.
Sara Ryan writes regularly for TIR Massage Stone, they carry such Pure Essential Oils as Lavender Oil, among many others.

Frustrated with my tossing and turning, my wife suggested I go to our website and find what essential oil is good for insomnia.
I found Spikenard essential oil helps promote sleep. So I broke out the Spikenard and tapped out a couple of drops into my hand and rubbed some on the bottom of my feet and before long I was cutting some serious Zzzz’s. As I drifted off to sleep, the thought occurred to me, “How many others have this problem, but don’t know about this wonderful natural sleep aid?”
I never had a problem getting to sleep before and never gave much thought to the problem of Insomnia. I knew to avoid caffeinated drinks late in the day, so I made it a rule not to drink any after 4:00. After doing a little research on the topic, I find out that’s only part of the problem. Fear, stress and anxiety are big contributors to those not able to get a good nights sleep. With today’s economy I’m sure the number is increasing.
Insomnia is defined by the experts as: the inability to get to or stay asleep and the result of the lack of quality or quantity of sleep. Which makes for a not-so-good next day. Most sleeplessness occurs in the early part of the night. Sleeplessness which occurs later in the night or just before normal time of waking up, could be caused by depression.
According to Lexicon-Biology.com; Melatonin is a molecule manufactured by a gland of the brain that functions as a hormone. It influences the sleep-wake cycle by acting according to the day-night alternation. Children rarely have problems with insomnia because their bodies produce a sufficient amount of this hormone to keep them asleep. Now us older folk our bodies do not produce the same levels of melatonin as when we were younger. It just happens that Spikenard essential helps with that problem.
Spikenard oil, is pale yellow in color with a medium viscosity and has an earthy warm aroma. It is an aromatic herb with rhizome root which is ground into a powder and then steam distilled to extract the precious oil. The technical name for Spikenard is Nardostachys jatamansi and is of the Valerianaceae botanical family. Originally from the Himalayan Mountains of India it expanded into China and Japan . Incense traders traversed thousands of miles through the holy land, Egypt and far into the Roman Empire .
One of the main reasons for Spikenard’s popularity is its high concentration of Sesquiterpenes. Oils that are high in Sesquiterpenes work down at the sub-cellular level, which affects the membrane fluidity and allows oxygen transfer. It also can access the DNA in the cell which can erase information in the memory of the cell. This is an important step to setting the stage for reprogramming the cell’s DNA to its original intent.
So when that insomnia keeps you up let Spikenard put it to bed.

Essential Oils Put the Bite on Insects
With the increase of insects carrying viruses like West Nile Virus, it has become necessary to protect ourselves from bug bites. Chemicals like DEET have been added to insect repellents to ward off the pesky night rangers. But isn’t very healthy. In recent years many people have been searching for a natural remedies to fight off insects.
It has been known for centuries using cedar is an excellent way to protect valuables from bugs. Cedar wood in essential oil form can also help to ward off bugs and insects. Cedarwood essential oil was part of the Holy Anointing Oil mentioned in the Bible. It helped in keeping flies and insects out of the Temple in Jerusalem when sacrifices were being made.
Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils are even more powerful when blended with other oils. This is called a synergy blend. Cedarwood used for an insect repellant is best blended with cinnamon, clove, eucalyptus, lavender , peppermint and rosemary. With this combination you have a potent weapon to beat the bugs.
Bug spray doesn’t have to be nasty; as a matter of fact it can be enjoyable.
When making your blend, it is not always necessary to use all the oils. You can mix and match and find a suitable combination that will appeal to you.
After finding the right mixture, you’ll want to mix it in a carrier oil or dilute it with distilled water. This will preserve your skin from the stronger oils. Sesame, almond and coconut oil is a good choice, however you might want to make sure it is a massage oil because they are specifically for skin usage. Sesame oil also can act as a natural sunscreen.
If David Farragut were to offer his opinion on the subject he might have put it this way, “damn the bug spray torpedoes and full speed ahead with essential oils.” He could’ve said it. There were lots of mosquitoes in Mobile Bay on August 5, 1864.
Essential Oils are a wonderful tool God has given us to keep us healthy. However, these oils should be used with care and should not be taken internally unless under a licensed medical doctor with knowledge in aromatherapy. Pregnant women should not use these oils. Please check the safety ratings for each of the oils you are considering using. Always use 100% pure oils from reputable sources.

Lavender and Tea Tree Essential Oil Arrest Acne
Silent skin attackers creep in overnight unbeknownst to a sleeping princess. With what fright she awoke to see the horror of the success of the stealth attack. “Argh,” she screamed as she peered in the looking glass before her, “I can’t go to school with that on my face.” Overnight a band of rogue bacteria invaded the derma skin layer of our heroine. The loathsome marauders left their mark with a cruel calling card. Acne. The dread of every teenage drama queen.
This drama plays out quite frequently and sets many on a quest for the quick fix. In multiple trips to the drug store for some over the counter remedy many a dollar is spent trying various products. In some cases prescription drugs are prescribed by dermatologists to attack the problem. When all these remedies don’t work, what is there to do?
One of the best natural acne fighters is Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca alternifolia) and it comes from Australia. This antibacterial oil also antifungal, so it is great for warding off those nasty warts too. It is fast acting and can help relieve the infected area while clearing up the bacteria. This oil is good for helping to heal wounds. It has also been found to be effective against dandruff. If you have sensitive skin, it’s a good idea to use a carrier oil to dilute it. Grapeseed oil is excellent for this because it does not clog the pores.
Another great acne crime fighter is Lavender (Lavandula dentate) which comes from different parts of the world. It is very good at preventing acne, however when applied to an existing case it will help to clear it up. Lavender will take the redness out quickly. Like Tea Tree, this oil is best diluted.
Virgin Oilive Oil’s Spiritual Significance
Virgin Olive Oil
Olive oil is used as a carrier oil and the Bible clearly states that the only grade of olive oil suitable for holy anointing purposes is the “first oil.” The Bible discusses this in Leviticus 24:2: “Command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamps to burn continually.”
Today, first oil is called “virgin oil.” Virgin olive oil has a wonderful fragrance and flavor. First oil is not pressed from the fruit but drained from the crushed fruit.
The “first oil” or virgin oil serves as a spiritual picture of the Bride of Messiah. She is the first to come out of Babylon on her own and is drawn by the Ruach. The Bride has a fragrance the world recognizes as different.
The second oil, or “pressed oil,” is inferior and its fruit is crushed, stamped, and squeezed to get the very last drop of oil. This oil was not acceptable as an offering to the Temple—as it has no flavor or fragrance.
Believers who are sluggish and foolish have to be beaten and endure fiery trials like the second oil to come out.
The choice still remains theirs. Will a believer be a fragrant offering to Him or be hard-pressed and remain tasteless to the world? 2 Corinthians 2:14-15 says, “Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ.”
