Instant Allergy Relief -- doTerra Tuesday

 Next blog post later this week:  

VIDEO, Distressed Front Door Makeover!

Sick of ALLERGIES???  

Why run to Walgreens when you can run to nature?

Check this out - my story for doTerra Tuesday. 

Amélie is mothering a kitten whose mother was killed by coyotes.  She makes formula and everything. It's so cute.  And so is this darn cat.  And I am not a cat person.  At all.  They about kill me.  Eyes swell shut.  Nose itches so bad I want to stick a fork in it.  They make me miserable ....   This little guy has been living on our porch so the big boys (our barn cats) don't tear him to bits while he is si tiny.  And I must confess, at night he comes and snuggles with Joel on our couch.  Of course, he is adorable.  

Well, he got me.  I went nuts the other night as he and Joel played their little kitten games while we watched a movie.  "Get that thing OUT of here" I snarled through my snot and itching.  Then I said, "Wait.  Let's try something."  I Googled "oils and allergies" and came up with COUNTLESS stories about people kissing their Allegra and Claritn D au revoir. 

The main suggested protocol was 3-4 drops of lemon, peppermint and lavender swirled in the mouth for 30 seconds and then swallowed.  

Skeptical.

I am out of lemon oil but I had saved the bottle so I filled it with water, shook it up and poured it in a cup and added the lavender and peppermint.  Swirled, drank...Now remember, I was a sniveling mess!  Within THREE MINUTES I thought, What the heck is going on? I said to Joel, "Did you notice what just happened? "  He said, "You're totally FINE!  That is amazing!"

I am lovin' this company.

I love that their oils are strong and pure without the junk that was in the health food store oils I had been using.  

I love that I am actually helping people because helping people live healthier lives is very important to me.

I love being a Wellness Advocate with doTerra. 
 
doTerra Essential Oils nipped my allergic reaction to cats IN THE BUD within MINUTES.  I will use it again whenever I have to.

Helichrysum Oil

Here's my oil of the day... Helichrysum. 

And yes, I do mean "sear tissue"  this oil can be used directly on an open wound... it can even stop hemorrhaging until medical personal arrive!!!   It can be used on severe burns and wounds from the moment of damage all the way thru the healing process.

 

A must-have here on the farm with a fire pit, metal fencing, gravel driveway, pitch forks... you name it!

I feel confident as a Mom knowing there is something safe I can use in an emergency situation!

 

And now you can search for the best oil 

for your ailments and symptoms!!!

doTerra Tuesdays - Personal (Thyroid) Health Update

OK, so it's Thursday.  

I'm gonna try to keep it short.
Cause I'm pumped.
So I'll ramble on I know.

Got the call from Mr. Endocronologist-pants today.  (That's a thing with the kids and I.  We add "pants" to everyone's name.  It makes us laugh).

Anyhoo.

I'm not dying of thyroid cancer!  
I'm being funny of course, but then again...  The drama the ultrasound tech was laying on me had me in fits all weekend as I waited for the results.  She kept saying "it" as she was taking her fancy (pants) pictures.  Trying to get "it" (this black mass on the screen) from this angle and trying to get "it" from that angle.  Her and the other tech studied "it" and referred to "it" so hard core I thought I needed to go home and re-vamp my will!

"It"???  
What the bleep is IT?  
I am laying there thinking.

Then to top it off she says, as I am walking out the door, If you are really anxious you could call the doctor instead of waiting for them to call you.

Wow.  
Forget bedside manner.
How about bedside horror?


So, of course, I stalked them today until the doctor actually called me to say I have a 2mm cyst on my thyroid.  Too small to do anything with (I am assuming he means biopsy) and that I should check in with him in 3 months.

In between now and then I'm gonna natural medicine those
 2 mm's to kingdom come!!!
Word.  
Up.

So, I am a happy camper.
One stresser off the list, sort of, for now.

Tomorrow I meet with a neurologist and I'll update accordingly.

But this post is about Essential Oils right?

Look, I am a born sales-girl at heart so I know I can come off like a Mac truck on a freeway.  You'll have to get over it - some things, like Jesus, are too good not to share! 

I've been taking these/using these oils faithfully for about two and a half weeks.  Maybe more like three.  And I haven't felt better in the last couple of years.

Here's what I am experiencing...

No doom and gloom feeling. 

No depression.  (I've really been struggling with this on and off the last couple years.)

WAY less hair loss.  (I have ALL WHITE floors and dark brown hair, so I know what's up.)

I am sleeping a bit better.  No perfectly, but better.  (I was waking up and not being able to fall back asleep.)

No grabbing, choking feeling around my neck (from swollen thyroid).

I've even lost 2 pounds ON ACCIDENT.  For the first time in my life.  ON ACCIDENT!  Could my thyroid be regulating itself better???

Hubby kissed me the other day and I thought, Hey - maybe we better take this party upstairs.  Seriously.  That's a miracle.  I was thinking I should start a new blog called, "Sister Angela" if you know what I mean.  That or become a sales rep for FRIGID-aire.

And a more recent thing - I ordered a few new oils last week as I am making over our (empty) medicine cab little by little.  I ordered the big-mammer-jammer.... Frankincense.  Frankincense has all this brain power mo-jo (watch video here).  I've been rubbing it at the base of my neck, right on my spine since Thursday past and I have had only TWO LITTLE MINI-TWITCHES.  (See previous post).  I mean, this twitching was getting so bad I actually checked with hubby to see if he knew seizure protocol and I made him promise not to scare the kids if it ever happens around them. 
TWO LITTLE MINI-TWITCHES!

(I have twitched as many times as 25 violent jerks in a row). 

Granted, I have been taking EXCELLENT care of myself but come on... this is a big deal for me.

Hubby is seeing GREAT results too which I will expound on another time.  We each are feeling really, really good and it's really refreshing.

I hate this expression,
"An overall sense of well-being"
But that's exactly how I feel. 

Dare I say... Perky!

I'm gonna keep at it.  I'm gonna keep learning more.  I'm gonna keep answering your questions as best I can (if it takes me awhile be patient - I got a TON of emails the last time.)  

In the meantime - what's bugging you?  
Anxiety? 
Migraines?  
IBS?  
Stress? 
Unsightly moles or skin tags?  

If you've ever stepped foot into a Walgreens for ANYTHING then Essential Oils are for you.
You name it and I'll bet there's an oil for that.

Happy Health.

PS - I know I am working with Amazon now but please if you are going to buy, buy them thru my doTerra store as I can not guarantee the integrity of the product if you buy through Amazon.  There are stories of people diluting the oils and re-sealing the product.  

Here's your link to shop.  Remember -- getting your products at wholesale is just like buying a membership to Costco!  But it's cheaper and when you renew you get a free Peppermint Oil!!
