Love

Cholesterol and high blood pressure are a problem in so many peoples lives or the lives of their loved ones.  Many people are prescribed pharmaceutical  drugs. Drugs that are widely advertised on television and costly.  The drugs are meant to help manage the problem, and in most cases they do.  Like most drugs, the drug use is not to cure the problem, rather it is to put a “band-aide” effect over the situation.

The way that has helped my mother with her cholesterol and high blood pressure and improvement towards better health is, natural, organic, antioxidant solution of NingXia Red. (Read more on NingXia Red).

NingXia Red combines the finest whole Ningxia wolfberry puree, blueberries, pomegranate, apricot, raspberries, red grapes, and lemon and orange essential oils. It’s the synergy of ingredients that help to make NingXia Red stand above all the others.

When a bottle of NingXia Red reaches your hands it is still bursting with excellent natural flavor and contains the specially handled wolfberry ‘puree’ – not an over-processed juice. Young Living uses a processing technique called “Nutritent Guard” which captures the natural goodness of the NingXia wolfberry, which includes the water-soluble plant pigments that give them their unique reddish-orange color: flavonoids, carotenoids, polyphenols, and anthocyanidins. Rich in antioxidants, the therapeutic benefits of these compounds are carefully preserved in this proprietary procedure and are guaranteed in every bottle of NingXia Red.

Mom has been on medication for both cholesterol and high blood pressure for many years, and in the last 8 months her medications have been greatly reduced.  I feel VERY strongly that NingXia Red may have played a huge part in this reduction. She drinks 2 ounces a day.

Eight months ago both drugs were reduced to half of the original prescribed amount, along with her water pill being eliminated.  A few weeks ago her blood pressure medication was cut in half again.  She may be off of all medications in the future.  What a tremendous gift of giving her longevity to her life!!

Thanks be to Gary Young and Young Living Essential oil for providing the world with such outstanding wellness products.  My household will never be without them.

Short but sweet…May all who desire to, rid their cupboards of medications by discovering healthier and truly natural alternatives to better their health, and the health of people they know and love.

"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

Use caution with essential oils if you have a serious medical conditionPerfume making is an art. Some may have a natural talent for combining different plant scents, while others may need to work at it a bit. Probably the most important thing is to have a nice assortment of Young Living Essential Oils on hand and a desire to learn this age old art. The benefit of using superior quality essential oils in your perfume mixtures is that they are far more than mere scents, there’s therapy in that aroma!

I’ve tried to keep this simple fr a number of reasons, firstly; it’s about having fun, and secondly; it’s about expressing your creativity through making something that is healing to the mind and spirit. A gift for yourself or someone you love. Rather than get bogged down on technique, I want to give you a foundation from which you can blossom and grow.

Things you will need to get started blending scents:

  • An assortment of Young Living Essential Oils (see below) Buy YL Oils Here.
  • Perfume Bottles
  • One small glass jar with lid filled with plain coffee beans (not ground, not flavored!)
  • Notebook and pen

Some choices of essential oils for your ‘notes’

It is not necessary to have every oil on this list, though if you do have these and more you will be able to create many more and different perfumes. Thus, this list is only a sampling to get you thinking in the right direction. Pick and choose how ever many as your heart, head and budget can afford. At the very least, you would want one or two essential oil(s) from each note category.

"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

Thanksgiving meal with natural spices could be a new “twist” on preparation of your feast. The “natural spices” that are in the following recipes are food grade organic essential oils.

Recipes for Thanksgiving are fun to prepare each year and I would like to share with you some new recipe ideas to try for your Thanksgiving meal.

As everyone is seated for the beginning of your feast, take a few moments to share what you are thankful for. Many people say a prayer, some don’t. Reach to your right and to your left and hold each others hands. Be thankful for the moment and for each other and for the love that surrounds you.

Here we go!!  Why not start with a hardy cup of soup. You know how when you go to a restaurant and the first thing you are brought is soup or salad and bread? Well, let’s do the same too.

Spiced Butternut Squash Soup

  • 3 large butternut squash
  • 6 garlic cloves
  • 2 drops of cinnamon oil (#3515)
  • 1 drop of nutmeg oil (#3599)
  • 4 cups water, boiling
  • 1 tablespoon Blue Agave (3221 or #3224) Read the rest of this entry »

Sacred Frankincense essential oil (seasonal 2010)Did you know that it’s very easy and within your budget to make high quality aromatherapy gifts for friends and family? For years I’ve been making everything from bath salts to perfumes to air fresheners to give as holiday gifts. I particularly enjoy the responses I get from people who are not familiar with superior quality essential oils. What I hear most often is something like… “Wow, this smells so nice, what can I do with it and how can I get more when I run out?”

One Christmas years ago I gave both of my sisters each a bottle of Thieves essential oil and Thieves Household Cleaner. The story came back to me like this… Barbara called Dorothy and said, “Did you try that Thieves Cleaner stuff yet?” Dorothy, “No, not yet. I did open it though and sniffed it. It smells fabulous! I didn’t try it yet because I don’t know what to do with it.” Barbara, “Go get your bottle and mix up a light dilution right now and clean your counter-tops. I just did my counter-tops and I can’t believe how clean they came out. Try it right now!” A few minutes later Dorothy commented, “Wow, what is this stuff!? It cleans so well!” Of course I got a phone call from them shortly afterwards, they wanted to know what this stuff called “Thieves” was.

I decided that year to give them these two Thieves products because I hated that they were still using Scrubbing Bubbles and chemical cleaners like that. As a matter of fact, Dorothy who does house cleaning for a living ended up in the hospital twice because she was having terrible trouble breathing. Yes, you guessed right. She couldn’t breathe because of her daily exposure to toxic chemical household cleaners and missed many days of work as a result. She was on the verge of stopping her cleaning business because it was hazardous to her health and she knew it. That’s why I decided to give Thieves for Christmas gifts. That was five years ago and she still has her cleaning business thanks to Thieves Household Cleaner and the other Young Living essential oils she uses at home and at work.

I need ‘you’ to help me plan the content for a special webinar!

The other reason I like to give ‘different’ types of gifts is because it makes me feel good to know that through listening to friends and family members complaints I can customize anything with my essential oils that they might need. It feels to me like I’m giving them a gift of wellness. To them, it feels like I’m giving them something they can use that empowers them and makes them feel physically and emotionally better.

What I need you to do…

On December 1st at 9pm Eastern Time I’m having a webinar on aromatherapy gifts that you too can make this holiday season. I will be teaching how you too can make a significant impact on someones life for pennies to a couple of dollars each, you can make gifts that surpass coming from the heart. Give them the gift of true caring and wellness.

Since this webinar won’t be held until December 1, 2010 there is plenty of time for you to listen closely to what your friends and family members are saying.

Listen to what they’re tired of, what they are complaining about – take note!

Do they need… inspiration, emotional balancing, relaxation, calming, nurturing, do they need to feel better about themselves, hope, happiness?

Really listen to them. Maybe ask some questions to gain a better understanding.

The reason I’m calling upon you to spend a little time discovering what they need is so that you can participate in the recipes and topics I cover in this webinar.

I want to hear from you… comment on this post and tell me what the loved ones in your life need more of, I don’t need to know the details, just enough to point me in the right direction.

This webinar is for you and the people you care about. I am here to help you help them. That is my gift to you for 2010.

Please leave a comment by clicking on the word “Comment” just below the title of this blog post.

Help me to help you make a difference in many lives this year  : )

"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

There are a million reasons why couples break-up. Regardless of the reason, we still need to maintain a healthy mental and emotional balance and keep our physical body properly nourished. Here are several tips, using aromatherapy with therapeutic-grade essential oils to help make the transition easier and healthier for you.

Aromatherapy: Helping Yourself Through the Emotions of a Relationship Break Up

The fragrance of a therapeutic-grade essential oil can directly affect everything from your emotional state to your lifespan. It’s important to note that all essential oils are not created equally, 100% pure or organic essential oils will not produce the same results as a therapeutic-grade oil (more).

What makes therapeutic-grade essential oils and aromatherapy unique, essential oils work differently than any other natural substance?

"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

Entering a space can make us feel immediately light and uplifted. Or, leave us feeling depleted and drained. These very real feelings our bodies and minds experience are a direct response to the energy of that environment. Every space has energy, whether solid or seemingly empty, it is composed of infinite energy. Learning a few simple techniques on how to cleanse the space can have a dramatic influence on the way we feel and on every aspect of our life. These Space Clearing techniques can be used as often as you like so your home or office is much more harmonious and balanced. Shifting energy in the home

Space Clearing techniques have been used throughout history. The methods and tools vary from culture to culture, but the intent is the same – to create greater harmony and balance. Native Americans used: drums, rattles, and smudged (sage, cedarwood or juniper). Chinese used: gongs, chanting, and incense. Medieval Europe, salt and prayers cleared the energy. The Middle East: smoldering resins of frankincense and myrrh were used to invite blessings into a home.

These forgotten ceremonies that brought vitality to human structures generations ago are being used again to instill peace and equilibrium. These ancient rituals can be adapted for modern day use, and most important. A home or business that has been purified not only feels better but sometimes, in seemingly mystical ways, health improves, relationships deepen and prosperity expands. Read the rest of this entry »

"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly." ~ R. Buckminster Fuller

Our pets stress can become quite aggravated at the drop of a hat, literally.  If you have skittish critters, it does not take much for them to be stressed and get scared, and their poor little hearts can start pumping like crazy. Some are more skittish than others.  Wouldn’t you like to be able to help them out, so that they are calmer?

There are many different therapeutic-grade essential oils that are calming and are safe to use with pets.  It is important to be sure to know that your  essential oils are quality oils, and not perfume grade.  When you use essential oils for your self and your pets, you want to be sure that you know that the essential oil you are using is a quality essential oil. This is extremely important, especially when you use them for therapeutic purposes on your pets that you love so much.

Three oils that are particularly great calming oils are:

  1. Lavender is a great aid for relaxing.
  2. Peace and Calming blend helps calm tensions, promoting relaxation and a deep sense of peace.
  3. RutaVala blend promotes relaxation of the body and mind. It helps ease tension and relieve stress.

It’s quite simple to use therapeutic-grade essential oils on our pets.  You know that first off, the great importance of having top quality essential oils.   Top quality, therapeutic-grade ssential oils are very concentrated and powerful, so it is important to understand that less is better!

The easiest way to use essential oils with your pets is by diffusing them.  By diffusing the essential oil your pets, and you, are getting the aromatherapy by breathing in the essential oil that is being diffused.  The diffuser literally puts the essential oil into the air in micro-fine particles that stay suspended in the air for several hours.

Start by diffusing your therapeutic-grade essential oils for 15-30 minutes, one to four times a day for normal situations. Place the nebulizer diffuser higher in the room (a shelf, bar, or fireplace mantle are good choices) so that the essential oil mist has a longer distance to fall through the air.

Read more on diffusing

Essential oils can also be applied topically.  Remember less is better.  The amount of essential oil that is used would be determined by the size of your pet.

  • Small to medium sized pets, like cats or small/medium dogs:
  1. Take 1 drop of any of the above mentioned essential oils.
  2. Place it in the palm of your hand and rub your hands together until the essential oil is dry.
  3. Rub your pets paws and give them a nice loving petting.
  • Larger sized dogs
  1. Take 2 drop of any of the above mentioned essential oils.
  2. Place it in the palm of your hand and rub your hands together until the essential oil is dry.
  3. Rub your pets paws and give them a nice loving petting.

With either one of these therapies, diffusing or topical application you should see your pets becoming calmer.  They may begin to love it when you bring out the essential oils.  I know my pets love them and they have their favorites, just like I do.

We love our pets, and they love us, so why not help them to feel less stress by having therapeutic-grade essential oils on hand for them.  You can get your pet care products delivered right to your door.  If you are interested in learning more, please contact me.
