I learned a lot from Dr. Axe. I also like a book my husband got for me. It breaks down all of the different types of each oil, their purposes and how to use them. Its called 'The Complete Guide to Essential Oils' by Gill Farrer-Halls.

I'm kind of a nut about staying away from meds for ailments or harsh chemicals for cleaning. It has been hard for me to accept taking antipsychotics, but there's no essential oil for that unless I missed something.

Oil of oregano is a lifesaver. Its a very strong anti viral and antibiotic. I also use a lot of tea tree oil for antibacterial purposes. They are cheap and easy to use.
