Energy Level of Volunteers at a Large Event
In the fall of 2005 I attended a 3 day intensive for personal development seminar and in the spring of 2006 I volunteered to work at the next one. I took along some NingXia Red singles to drink because I felt I was going to need them.
Now I am somewhat a skeptic (OK a big skeptic of big claims), but I do support products I like such as Apple computers and the Toyota Prius. I like NingXia Red, a lot (it’s almost like candy to me without the junk!), but I wasn’t prepared for what happened.
To begin with when core staff and volunteers met on the day before the event there was a notable synergy between all of us (which probably had quite a bit to do with what happened.)
The first day of the event I took a few singles to pass out amongst the staff and to put on ice for later – they were gone within 2 hours (you would have to understand how the behind the scenes works at this event to appreciate this comment (very few short breaks for the staff). The second day I took more and they too were gone within 2 hours and the third day I took close to a hundred of them and they disappeared very quickly as well.
In all, the volunteer staff probably averaged around 4 hours of sleep a night. The core staff? I couldn’t say.

Massage is a very beneficial therapy, and by adding therapeutic grade essential oils to the massage you get multiple benefits. If your massage therapist does not stock the essential oils you prefer to use, such as Young Living medicinal essential oils, than always remember to bring them to your appointments.
Different essential oils have different viscosity, or thickness, and therefore diffuse at different speeds. A good reason for diffusing therapeutic-grade essential oils is that research indicates when superior quality essential oils are diffused they can increase atmospheric oxygen and provide negative ions, which inhibits bacterial growth in the air. This suggests that essential oils could play a very important role in air purification and neutralizing odors (not masking odors). Because of their ionizing action, essential oils have the ability to break down some potentially harmful chemicals and render them nontoxic. For instance, Lemon essential oil is terrific at breaking down products that are derived from petro-chemicals; simply putting several drops on a cotton ball can remove the gummy stuff left behind after you peel off a price tag, or motor grease from hands. Therapeutic-grade Lemon essential oil will also dissolve a Styrofoam cup.
Our own homes to be a real source of stress. Our homes are suppose to be seen as a place of safety – a sanctuary and retreat. Our homes continue to be important places of retreat from the greater pressures of our work environment and a place to relax and enjoy friends and family, away from the stresses of the outside world. Now more than ever, our homes need to be healthy centers of calm to support and regenerate us, so the idea that they may cause us stress may be a good place to start making some changes.
