My Story!

https://www.mydoterra.com/gingoils/#/

Do you ever feel like you need a little peppermint in your life? OK, A lot of peppermint in your life sometimes? Today would be one of those days for me....tunnel hearing, numbness and tingling to both sides of the head and down the neck, pain in high cheek bones, temples and nose, drilling from back to front of cranial, type like migraine headaches, sail boat head, tired to pow eyes, vomitus feelings, lights no good, feel like a ton of weights just moving from one place to another...hello!! Is there life in there?? Where is it??? Peppermint I tell you! Peppermint and Wild Orange Essential Oils bring it to surface, that life you are looking for..Goodbye headaches, and vomiting - Hello sunshine, easy breathing, and bright eyes! Can we just say too - I Love EO Medal Roller Ball Bottles..yup! LOVE, Love is the right word, in case you were wondering. 

Dehydration! Low blood pressure - Oh Yeah! This is the life. Well at least it all relates to my upcoming class on migraines. **Wink**wink, well and gives an excuse to do some more writing...

So! This journey of much light continues on. My Story. If you haven't read my last post you should. After Sally explained to me the joys she had found through consistent use of doTERRA CPTG Essential Oils, she wanted me to experience that same joy for myself. We related what could be used for my health and healing. We talked about my acute bronchitis, pneumonia and strep throat scenarios. Me being on the airport ramp for so long with the exposure to the cold and damp weather hindering my health. My doctors always kicked my butt about that by the way. "Get Off the Ramp!! This is not a request"...which I responded with blah, blah, blah being that I loved the job. Not the best response, I had gotten much worse of course since then. Then In 2004 Rheumatic fever hit in Pennsylvania while visiting family. This was after my hubby (who we'll call Jimmy) and my honey moon in the EU. Jimmy's mom and hubby were a little beside themselves and took me in to one of their country doctors - who nailed it on the head (has never happened before FYI - the right diagnosis that is). It would be awesome to have this doctor in my pocket so I could have him wherever I was. Seriously good doctor. Then in 2006 I had a major accident on the airport ramp (we'll come back to this another time). Going back over these things just a bit with Sally, not my entire health history - but about what was most needed, we came to a determination (a no brainier of course!). It's all about the Immune System, Detoxing and Supplementing. So after our assessment the box of goodies from Sally and Betty was sent and I signed up to get supplements on a monthly basis. 

The determination from the assessment Sally and I made on my health:

On guard me up baby!! 1-2 drops under the tongue daily along with the Essential Oil being diffused in the air. Onguard supports healthy immune and respiratory function/Protects against environmental threats/Supports the body’s natural antioxidant defenses/Promotes healthy circulation/and is an Energizing and uplifting aroma. Onguard has - Wild Orange Peel, Clove Bud, Cinnamon Bark/Leaf, Eucalyptus Leaf, and Rosemary Leaf/Flower essential oils in it.

And! This is important - Smells and tastes like Russian Refresher (Orange and Clove mainly) - Yummy! And if you caught that - Yes! Tastes like, you say?! You can take these oils INTERNALLY. Remember this being a Journey of much light?! READ: "doterra developed this rigorous criteria to certify that it's oils contain no added fillers, synthetic ingredients or harmful contaminants. Utilizing their own facilities as well as trusted third party labs, doterra essential oils undergo the CPTG Process - (Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade) to ensure customers receive the highest quality of oil every time." Can we say WOW! No other Essential Oil Company does that. You know what I was thinking - I'm in the best hands here. Especially after doing the research myself.

A Journey of much light!!! This.Is.It.

In "2012" my two beautiful and inspired sisters found me in Utah and banged down my door! Haha..No, not literally. I received a phone call from my younger sister, we'll call her Sally, who had results to tell me about with her own health. Up until this point I thought my health was pretty parallel to hers. She had tumors, a type of bone cancer, high blood pressure, liver and kidney issues, some injuries, and allergies growing by the second and a big one here! - EBV Epstein-Barr Virus, better known as mono...which we all have for the most part as a human race, but seems to run really strong in parts of our family. EBV breaks down the Immune system to the point of having none. Leaving you to catch everything under the sun. Sally, caught it through sharing her water bottle with a friend who was infected. You see, you catch EBV through Saliva. Crazy! Right!? Truly watch out for those sneezes that your around. No Thank You!!! Well, I was never tested. But, if you haven't read my last post you should. If you have, you would know that I was diagnosed with acute bronchitis at one point. Not only has this been a strong indicator of a poor immune system, but strep, pneumonia and more have been a regular play in my life as well. SO...Remember (for those who read my last post, if you haven't you should) me saying this is a journey of much light!!! This. Is. It. Her knowing my health issues, this call from Sally was Ah Inspiring.........For more than a couple of reasons. 1, when Sally called me she first started out by being really excited. Why, is this ah inspiring you ask? Considering the health aspect, come on! Those who have been sick a lot - who has a lot of any energy here? 2, the Why behind Sally's Excitement. Sally called partially to give me results from a hospital visit. We'll come back to this. I've known every detail of Sally's medical history, there has never been a positive. Fowl up Surgeries, medication side effects..the new Results, one of Sally's Tumors was completely Gone! 3, the 2nd part of the Why behind Sally's excitement. I asked Sally, how? How is the tumor gone? Things were defiantly getting worse here. This is when she told me about Essential Oils, specifically doTERRA CPTG Essential Oils. Frankincense has been a big game changer for her, DDR Prime, LLV (you'll see links for these above) Frankincense is a DNA changer. I didn't know this until Sally explained it to me and even then you don't really know something until you have studied it out and experienced the truth of it for yourself, right?! 4, You didn't think there would be a 4 did ya!? 4, Sally knowing my health, wanted to serve, to share with me the light she had received - she was so excited she could not contain it and honestly so was I. Knowing her health background and the exciting good news she had just given me...when she wanted me to try the oils on my self, how could I say no?! I wanted to see the results work for me too! Sally and my older sister, we'll call her Betty both were in for sending me an entire box of goodies to start me on this continued journey of light....stay tuned for what happens next.

Food, if it doesn't taste good, why eat it?!

Food, if it doesn't taste good, why eat it?! Once my family figured out a trick, or two on how they could get me to eat, there was no stopping them from doing what they could. What kind of tricks did they have you ask? TACOS, McDonald's FRIES specifically and DESERTS Baby!! I was considered the human vacuum as a kid when it came to anything that resembled cheesecake, ice cream, pie or chocolate. You name it with deserts! But anything nutritious, or that resembled real food (unless it was tacos) you could forget it! Wait, doesn't calcium count in there somewhere? Antioxidants in Chocolate? There is protein in eggs you know, eggs go in to most deserts....not really. What happened next kind of bewildered my family, but was not shocking. Someone who goes from anorexia to eating a bunch of crap, starts to what? Look and feel like crap! How does one get rid of all that ickiness all quick like? Vomit it out of them of course! Eat what's tasty, then purge what they don't want, out. And what don't they want? Fat! Or to feel fat, or to look like they're getting fat. Don't get me wrong I was not obsessed about my looks. You laugh. It's true. It happened moment by moment...In the early stages of my life we did with what we could with the little funds that came into our home. I remember going to grade school with a piece of bread slathered with jam and nothing else. I had a hard enough time eating jam at all, to the point of vomiting, (if we pause for a moment, do we know how much sugar is in Jam and do we know what breads turn in to when consumed into our bodies? Yeah...We'll come back to that thought) by this time I ended up throwing out all my lunches. After lunches went, it was easy to let things slide with other meals. About when I hit jr high we had a little something more to pay with for our meals at school.  A Dr. Pepper and a snickers ended up being my main staples for lunches and sometimes even for breakfast. How are you not getting sick with the lack of nutrition here? Answer: I was sick, All. The. Time. So what do you think my family tried next? You could imagine their desperation at this point..yep! They sought outside help. Physiological help. Do you think it worked? Have you heard of a little thing called reverse psychology? You could imagine, we were not part of the physiological community for very long. In Fact, time number two..out the door baby! So, then what happened you ask? Life moved on in the best way we knew how to live it. I moved out of my parents home and then a little later in life found me a man. We ate out everywhere! You would be proud, it all stayed down for the most part. What came next was kind of a no brainer.....Up until this time I was not cozy with the medical community but had some medical concerns I was not addressing. I had been sick fairly often with bronchial junk, later being diagnosed with acute bronchitis. Pneumonia and Strep became a regular part of my life. And my under active thyroid I was not addressing had become quite a big issue...does it get better than this? You ask. This is so depressing....Give us some good news! I answer you, The best is yet to come!! **Wink **Wink This is a journey of much light.
