Young Living Essential Oils Featured on NBC's Today Show
On the July 11 episode of NBC's Today show, Dr. Susan Wagner, an animal neurologist, along with animal behaviorist Dr. Terry Curtis promoted the use of Young Living essential oils.
Dr. Wagner addressed the fear issues for different breeds of dogs and suggested the use of lavender essential oil as a treatment option for a dog with a fear of water. She explained that, "When we talk about essential oils, we're not talking about fragrances that you buy at a bath and beauty store—these are therapeutic–grade essential oils, and lavender is one of the most calming plants."

Thieves Waterless Hand Purifier Featured on The View, April 2008
On the April 22, 2008, Earth Day episode of ABC's The View, environmental activist, best-selling author, and Young Living customer Deirdre Imus was featured in a segment about how parents can help their children grow up green—which includes using Young Living products.
Imus named Young Living's Thieves® Waterless Hand Purifier as one of her recommended "greening" products, and
The View co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Elizabeth Hasselbeck sampled the product on air. Imus explained that among other products many parents often use, most hand sanitizers are not healthy because of their alcohol content. Young Living's Thieves hand purifier, however, contains only natural ingredients, and is therefore a better alternative.
Imus also created a list of recommended reading that she included in her book and listed Gary Young's
Essential Oils Desk Reference as her favorite book on essential oils. Imus recommends readers purchase oil blends through Young Living and diffuse the oils at home as a way to create a "more nurturing, welcoming place to be."
