Product Groups for Personal, Home, & Family Use
While you can get many personal wellness benefits out of doing general, all-product scans (especially if you do them regularly)—you can also use product groups to target your scans towards specific areas of your wellness!
Scanning with product groups (especially if you scan regularly) can help you
- Get to know your own body
- Optimize your wellness choices, including your choice of wellness products,
- Adapt your wellness response as needed in specific situations
Product Group Ideas:
Practical Product Groups
I.e
- Oils I Have: Create a product group for the oils you have so you can quickly find the best wellness-intervention options among them!
- Safe for Pets: Find a reliable list of which wellness products are safe for your pet. Create a product group with these products and then only ever scan them using that product group! This will help you find the best solutions for Fido while being sure to keep him safe!
- Travel: You can’t always take all your oils with you. While on the road, use a product group to scan for just the oils you brought along and pick the best among them to help you! (For long-distance travel, we recommend bringing your immune-supportive wellness products.)
- Favorites: Only in a mood to diffuse/use your favorites? Find which of them your body is responding to most and go for it!
Physical Wellness Product Groups
i.e.
- Pre-bedtime Products: Want help winding down? Create a product group of the oils you find most relaxing and use a quick scan at night to find out which one to use that night!
- Digestion: Scan only for products related to your digestive health. Scan before or after meals to help you identify the best wellness product to help you digest smoothly! (Do this with any Body System Category)
- Brain: Scan only for products related to your brain health. Scan anytime you feel your brain slowing down, getting fogged up, or overwhelmed. Use these scans to identify the best wellness products to help you get the most brain power out of your days!
- Structural: Scan only for products related to your musculoskeletal health. Scan after your workouts, before bed, or any time you’re feeling sore. Use these scans to identify your best wellness product to combine with a tension-relieving massage or bath!
- Etc.
Emotional Wellness Product Groups
I.e
- Joy: Scan only for products related to Joy in the Emotions Wheel. Scan anytime you want a little emotional pick-me-up or want help to savor the good in your life. Identify the “Joy” product(s) you typically respond to most strongly and capitalize on it! (Do this with any Emotions Wheel Category)
- Acceptance: Scan only for products related to Acceptance in the Emotions Wheel. Scan anytime you struggle with loving yourself, including loving your body, forgiving yourself, or positively embracing your identity. Identify the “Acceptance” product(s) you typically respond to most strongly and capitalize on it! (Do this with any Emotions Wheel Category)
- Root Chakra: Scan only for products related to the different qualities, body parts, and emotions of the Root Chakra. Use your results to create a custom blend to accompany you while you work with this chakra in your mediation practice. (Do this with any of the seven chakras).
* Note that these product groups may be especially useful to use on family members who cannot verbally express their emotional state/needs (children, the elderly, those with communication disorders, etc)

Product Group Ideas:
Street Contacting, Follow-ups, & Wellness Consultations :
- Any of the product groups listed above that you feel is appropriate based pn your conversation(s) with the client/potential client.

- Starter Kit Products: Make it easier for clients to get started! Not everyone is ready to start with one of the more obscure essential oil products like Marjoram, Helichrysum, or Zendocrine, so use this product group to help them find the best starter kit products for them so that they can more easily begin using and loving their oils!
Events & Classes
- Any of the product groups listed above that you feel is appropriate based on your conversation with the client/potential client.
- Match the theme: Create a product group to match the theme or the event or class you are attending/hosting (i.e. Skin Care, Stress-Management, Cooking, Oral Health, Fitness, etc!)

You can create a class and a product group centered on any hobby you have/wellness subject you are passionate about!
