A New Adventure


Sometimes I'm a jumper.  Sometimes I get involved in things that I have no clue what I'm getting into.  This is NOT one of those times.  I just became a Young Living Essential Oils Independent Distributor (member #2065124 thank you very much).... with no hesitation, not an ounce of doubt or uncertainty!!!!  And the reason is that I believe THIS is a better way.

So I attended a Young Living Oils class, became a member that night and the following night, before my kit was even officially mailed to me, I signed on to sell these products and share the incredible opportunity for health with others.  It made sense to me... it helped that a friend gave me her weight loss trio (lemon, grapefruit and peppermint) to try so I was familiar with the product.  I was never on the fence and I haven't once second guessed my decision.

I was never on the fence because years ago I had a homeopathic doctor tell me that ALL MEDICINE started out as natural medicine and that our pharmaceutical industry is just humans trying to replicate what nature has done forever... unfortunately, not without side effects because NOTHING can do what nature can.  Hearing about the benefits of pure and natural essential oils, it made perfect sense to me that these oils being a concentrated extraction from plants, would absolutely heal.  And the weight loss trio does it for me.  I just feel an all-around well being while seeing real weight loss that I just haven't seen in a long time.

Now do I feel that doctors and the pharmaceutical industry serves a purpose?  ABSOLUTELY!!!  If I was ever in a horrific accident, in a hospital hooked up to drugs through an IV is the FIRST place I would want to be.  And I even see a regular doctor.  But I found one that WON'T write me a prescription every time I'm in her office.  She really listens to me and also believes in the importance of a strong immune system.  She honors by belief that natural remedies support my body healing itself while pharmaceuticals and pills from drug companies tear it down.  She has also agreed to work hand in hand with my homeopathic doctor so that I have TWO people working toward my well being.... well, THREE if I include myself.  And honestly, I think that is every bit as important!

I think that WE need to be responsible for our own health.  Instead of abusing ourselves and then expecting someone else to fix us, we need to step up and help ourselves to be healthy.  I truly believe PURE essential oils are a good step in the right direction.  And it is something I want to share with the world!!!

If you're interested in getting started with Young Living Essential Oils, they have a Premium Starter Kit that has a really good mix (10 to be exact) of "everyday" oils, a bunch of samples of oil blends a roller ball and a diffuser to get you started with your oils as soon as you open the box!  Click HERE to order.  DRIPPY DRIPPY!!!

Maple Syrup vs. Honey

I did a post a while back about the nutritious sweetener for the lemonade on the Master Cleanse: maple syrup ! In fact, for quite some time now it has been my only sweetner (well, that and agave nectar... YUM!). But why maple syrup... isn't honey the magical sweetener? First, let's consider where both come from. One comes from a tree and the other comes from flowers, but is predigested and then regurgitated by a bee. Can you guess which is which??? hahahaha ! Really though, just the idea that an insect's already digested nectar from a flower lends to the idea that the nectar is already devoid of nutrients when it's vomited back up. Isn't that the whole point of digestion? To pull the nutrients from whatever it is you have ingested. So is it safe to say that honey is a bi product ? Or even a waste material? I would certainly call MY vomit a waste material... what about you? But beyond the gross visual I now have in my head of honey, I also have a real concern about ...

Quite A Long Hiatus... But I'm Back!!!

What Happened????  I've been out of commission for a LONG time!  Well... there's a story!  Isn't there always???  Let me see if I can catch you all up quickly.  So once upon a time..... the real estate market crashed, this girl lost her career and started a blog to help focus on the better times that she knew HAD to be coming.  This blog helped distract, helped to focus and was an outlet for getting and doing things that money truly couldn't buy because she didn't have any to spend.  During this time I learned that I was strong, I was resourceful and, most importantly, I was capable.  But in looking back at this blog and the HUGE gap from my last post to today, I realized that I was grateful that I documented my journey and now wish I had never stopped.  So, back to the first question... what has been happening? 1.  I got my career back and actually landed my dream job. I have the UNBELIEVABLE honor of helping folks make their dre...

Curse You 21 Jumpstreet and Heed My Warnings

Ok, so I rented it and I loved it!!!  I hate that I loved it!  And I hate myself even more that I'm running out to buy it!  But watching this HILARIOUS movie remake reminds me of all the broken dreams and unanswered questions I was left with as a teenage girl while I manipulated and maneuvered my black and white TV antennae unavailingly to give me a clear picture of the hit Fox TV show. Back in 1987, Fox was a new station and did not come through very clearly on that trusty black and white and most nights it was as if my beloved Penhall was communicating to me from the other side through all that white noise.  Yes, I was in love with Officer Doug James Penhall and that teenage ritual would literally foreshadow the pain and heartbreak I would endure watching the end of 21 Jump Street the movie... and I'm STILL compelled to buy it.  If you haven't seen the movie yet, this post might come as a shock and should definitely be considered a spoiler for anyone readin...
