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!!!

Another Oldie But A Goody

Oh how I missed you!  This is a mani I haven't done in quite some time and I JUST realized that it NEVER got posted on my blog the first time I did it.  I can't believe it!  It's one of my favorites... and NOT just because it's a Halloween mani (mostly, but not entirely).  I like it because of all the Konad image plates I get to use to create this wonderful Halloween collage on my nails!  So here it is for the first time here on FunandmentalChanges.com!!!  And check out my thumb.... My thumb is sort of an exception to the rest of the manicure because the scary jack-o-lantern is off of a "fauxnad" plate, but the rest of the Konad images plates are M3, M17, M18, C01, C04 and C05.  Wow.... that really IS a lot of plates!!! So my base coat is Nail Aid's Pink Growth Therapy, then one coat of Orly's Mirror Mirror and then the various images stamped in Konad's special black and white polishes.  I LOVE THIS ONE!!!  The inspiration for this ...

Great Things Come In Small Packages

A couple of nights ago I had the pleasure of going to a Joel Osteen event. His wife and kids were there, his brother Paul was there along with local ministers. I did not pay for my ticket and believe it or not, I was picked up in a white hummer with black tinted windows... "my limo", I called it. This event was literally given to me. I got to spend the evening with two of the most amazing women and we had a BLAST. With all of that to be so grateful for, I find that my sights are set on the greatest gift given to me that night.... Philemon 1:6 . I really hate admitting this, but I have never read Philemon and I don't know why (it's 1.5 pages for crying out loud!!!). I want to say that it's so small and easily missed, but that isn't a reason.... made even less of a reason since I have tabs that extend from my Bible that don't know 50 pages from 1.... no excuses. Honestly, BECAUSE it's so small, it really should not have gone unread. Could ANY book of the...

Banana Split

Okie Doke!  This week at Paper Vineyard, we were challenged to create a project inspired by the Banana Split pictured above.  Couldn't you just jump through the screen right now and gobble that up???  What I love the most about this banana split is the color palette!!!  I never thought I would EVER say that about ANY banana split!!!   These colors are just so inspiring!!!  So I created: DON'T YOU JUST LOVE IT!!!???!!!  Honestly, I wasn't planning on creating anything as my plate is sort of full for the month, but Bo Bunny arrived at the store and I just couldn't help myself.  I was ALLLLLLLL over it!  I bought ALL the papers from the Et Cetera line (plus the buttons and trinkets) and then MOST of the papers from the Double Dot Designs!!!  These lines are AMAZING!!!  There were also goodies from the new Christmas line, but I finally had to stop looking and walk away.  OMGosh, these lines ROCK!!!  So a...
