Essential Oils have changed our life!!!!!!!!!!

We have always tried to stay away from doctors, whether that be skipping well-baby checks, finding ways to stay healthy or finding alternative treatments for illness.  We have had success at staying well to a degree, but when we finally succumb to illness, we would end up at the doctor more times than not.  Many times we would leave the doctor's office with several prescriptions...antibiotics, cough suppressant, etc.  And, as we all know, these have horrible side effects.  So...do I want to give these to my family? surprise  Of course not!!!

Well, this is where I was desperate to find an alternative.  I searched and searched.  I finally found it.  And, it has certainly made a difference in my life, my immediate family, and my extended families lives!!!!  love struck  Who could ask for more?

We have been so very, very blessed by finding Young Living essential oils.  For over a year and a half, we have not been to the doctor.  We had no need because 1) we are staying healthy most of the time and 2)if we do get sick, I have remedies right here in my home. happy 

There have been many, many instances that Young Living essential oils have come to our rescue.  In the coming days, I will be adding posts on how we are using these essentials oils in our life and how they have replaced all the over-the-counter (OTC) meds/prescription medicines.

OTC meds and prescription medications are, quite simply, poison to our bodies.  When we take one, our bodies have difficulty knowing what to do with them.  Have you noticed how many healthy people are having problems with the "safe" solutions like Tylenol lately?  Over and over I hear about people (normally young, healthy people) that are having problems with their liver because of OTC meds.  It is so important for us to be aware of what we are taking.  sad  OTC meds/prescription medications are synthetic, man-made substances that are not good for our bodies. Yes, they can help but what are the extra consequences?  They all have horrible side effects that you may not even realize are occurring. 

Essential oils are God's gift to us...to help us stay healthy and to take care of those instances when we need immediate help with an illness or first aid.  When we inhale or ingest Young Living essential oils, our bodies know exactly what it is and then uses how it needs it. And, our bodies can use a single oil in multiple ways. For example, we might take Lemon essential oil in a cup of warm water with honey because we have a sore throat. It will definitely sooth our throat but it will also balance our Ph at the same time. Or, we might use Lavender b/c we have a burn but it will relieve stress at the same time. These are just two very simple examples of how our bodies might use an essential oil.  Amazing, right?!?  big grin  It does all this because this is what God intended.  He is so very good to us!!! 

If you are looking for alternatives to medicines, I'd love to help you learn more about essential oils.  They are good for you!!  love struck
