Essential Oil Enhanced Positive Affirmations

In the most recent essential oils class we hosted, my Mom and I went over what Oola is and how essential oils may enhance positive affirmations. This is something I tend to naturally gravitate towards, mainly because I have always had a deeply embedded desire to be the best me I can be.

I first wanted to do this class because I wanted to know what Oola was and how they and essential oils worked together. I found that Oola was about having an optimal life by working on and keeping balanced 7 key areas. Positive affirmations, along with having a plan to reach your goal, are a big part of their protocol. (For a more in-depth look on Oola please visit Oola Life)

Personal Testimony on DIY Sunscreen

Hey All! It's been too long since I last posted so I thought I'd take this opportunity share how well a DIY sunscreen worked for me!

How Does One Grow a Young Living Business?

Here's another great video on doing Young Living as a business and methods on getting it to grow! His methods aren't as daunting as one would think and make it seem so doable, even if we're on the busy side. Enjoy!

Young Living's Compensation Plan Explained

I've had a couple people under me asking how Young Living's compensation plan works and how they could get their own active downline. This is an excellent video explaining the compensation plan and I think it can give you all an idea of how you could get your own active downline. It's real simple and easy to understand. Enjoy!

P.S. If you have questions feel free to ask!

Salad & Dressing Recipe

Alright! Yesterday I posted about how I was going to be making a salad from Paleo Leap but because I didn't have all the ingredients I was going to monkey with it and make my own version. I am happy to say that it was a success!

Here's what I did.

Me, Cooking, & Essential Oils

I've made gummies and tea in the past and have posted about it. This time it's brownies and an avocado salad. I love the flavor essential oils give to cooking and I actually find myself enjoying cooking. (I've never been a fan of cooking. Sometimes I day dream about having a personal chef :D)

Yesterday I took a gluten-free brownie mix and added 1 drop of both peppermint and spearmint oil. Having both of those oils in really rounded out the mint flavor. I wasn't sure what I was going to get when I did that but I've found I actually prefer the combo rather than just one sharp mint flavor. I'm glad I tried it and that it was a success.

Earlier today I saw a recipe with dark greens, avocado, almonds, and dried cranberries with a homemade dressing to put on it. (Here's the recipe from Paleo Leap: Cranberry Avocado Salad) It looks delicious. I don't have all the ingredients so I was going to make it with what I have and then monkey with an essential oils dressing... Maybe Citrus Fresh, olive oil, and such? I don't know what I'll eventually end up with, but just thinking about is making me hungry!

Hopefully it all turns out well and I can post a yummy, successful recipe for you all to try as well!

Spearmint Essential Oil

Spearmint (Mentha spicata), like many other herbs, has a history. It has been used by ancient cultures such as the Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks for various applications. Some of the uses were to freshen breath, as a digestive aid, to deter rats and mice from grain stores by spreading it around, colic, and more. It is still used in the Middle East as a tea after their meals. 

Twelve Oils of Ancient Scripture - Personal Testimony

My Mom and I have started using the Twelve Oils of Ancient Scripture at nights and have been sleeping like babies. I haven't slept this great in years! I would go to "sleep" and still be somewhat conscious throughout the night. After using this kit, when I go to sleep I go to sleep. I'd forgotten how good it felt to actually wake up from a deep, lights out, sleep. ^^

Ginger "Key Lime Pie" Gummies Recipe

Enjoy!

P.S. One could even substitute the ginger bits for ginger essential oil. I just like the spontaneous zip from the little bits of ginger.

Cinnamon Gummies Recipe

ENJOY! Have questions? Ask me!

One will probably have better luck getting in contact with me on Facebook.

P.S. I use grass fed, organic gelatin.

Shin Splints

I've recently started running again and developed a slight case of shin splints. I got it really bad in high school when I joined competitive gymnastics for PE and I didn't want a repeat. So, I took out Aroma Siez and applied it to both my shins NEAT. I felt an almost instant relief, particularly when walking.

PMS/Menstrual Cramps

I've personally never had PMS/menstrual cramps so bad that it was debilitating. In fact it wasn't till years after I first started that I experienced any discomfort of any kind. (Ignorance truly was bliss.) I'd get cramps and start to feel really sleepy.

AromaEase Oil

I just received my bottle of AromaEase! Needless to say I was and still am excited. ^.^ As soon as I picked it up I screwed the cap off and took a whiff: mellow minty. That's the best I can describe it. It's taste is very similar to it's smell, just fuller. I could feel the icy, cool sensation from my throat to my stomach. I could even feel it in my teeth. >_<

Cat Rehabilitation Part 2

Here's a peak into how effective these oils are. Around an hour and a half ago they were in a fight that was stressful enough for Lilly that it caused her to stress pooh. Here are some pics of how they are now after oil application:

Essential oils are amazing! Anybody who knows cats knows that the probability of two cats practically cuddling when they're sworn enemies is pretty much none-existent. 

Cat Rehabilitation

Our family loves pets. Growing up, I have never been without an animal, even if it wasn't "mine." Presently, a couple of my siblings and I have our own cats (we're all living together), and due to segregating them to our own rooms we created a territorial rift. Oops. >.< Now we are in the process of mending the rift, meaning we're slowly adding cats  into one room until they form one clan. Let me tell you, doing this is like having a full time job and thankfully I can stay at home to do it. (I've learned my lesson and much more through this experience and now have a better understanding of how to raise cats.)

Party!

It's been a bit since my last post, and it occurred to me that I could write about our parties. ^_^

Bruised Big Toes

I bruised both my big toes recently. They were tender, but it took 5 days for the bruise coloring to actually appear. I applied Lavender, Peppermint, and Animal Scents Ointment and immediately felt a tingly sensation under my toenails.
