I have always been a natural skeptic when it comes to non traditional ways of doing things so coming to the realization that essential oils could really make a difference in my life took a while. As my life has taken a turn toward a more self sufficient and natural wellness lifestyle in the last couple of years, I have begun to investigate alternative ways to alleviate some of the physical and mental things we all deal with as we age.
In an effort to create a healthy lifestyle I am growing more edibles in the garden, cooking healthier meals, and taking walks, as a part of my daily routine. Scheduling quiet time every morning and getting a good nights sleep are also an essential part of this equation. While these things have certainly helped on me on my journey to personal wellness, I still found myself dealing with the occasional headache, sleepless night and increasing aches in my hands and feet.
That's when I turned to essential oils. After asking my more "natural" minded friends and family I found that the name that kept coming up was DoTerra. So when Angela - A Parisienne Farmgirl - asked me if I used essential oils (specifically Doterra essential oils) I knew it was time to do some research and give them a try. I purchased the Home Essentials Kit shortly after because I knew if I was going to legitimately give them a try I needed to go all in. I was a little skeptical as I rubbed Deep Blue on my hands and felt relieve within five minutes and dismissed it as a coincidence. But when I repeated the application the next day after a long session pulling weeds in the garden and it worked again, I knew I was on to something. If one oil worked so well could the others do the same.
The answer is definitely, yes, they do. And now I can say essential oils are a big part of feeling better both emotionally and physically and I can't ever see going without them again.
Loved this post. I have been trying years to get healthy and more relax and failed until last year when I found out I had osteoporis and now trying to do what is best for me. I will look into the essential oils. Thank you.
