Speaking of exploring galaxies far, far away,
I've taken on a new frontier.
As I turned 50, I started taking a closer look at my health
and I don't like what I see.   So....

I am cleaning out my medicine closet.  If I can't pronounce the ingredients, they're gone!   Too many synthetic medicines created from God only knows what!   And I'm sick and tired of insurance companies dictating what we can take and how often.  Instead, I'm replacing them with essential oils that I can pronounce and trust.

I did some research on essential oils and found a company that I trust; doTerra.
Their oils are pure enough (and tested by outside companies), that you can actually ingest them!   They are all made from plants that God put on this earth for our benefit....100% pure!

Then I met with one of their representatives (Roger Mendoza; a really great guy) and he gave me several free samples to try:
Peppermint,
Lemon,
Wild Orange
Deep Blue,
Lavender,
and a mixture, called "Focus"  (can you guess what it's supposed to do?)

I found that Peppermint Essential Oils have many applications;
  • alertness
  • allergies
  • bad breath
  • chronic fatigue
  • cold sores
  • congestion
  • constipation
  • cramps
  • diarrhea
  • energy
  • flu
  • gastritis
  • headaches
  • heartburn
  • hot flashes
  • indigestion
  • migraines
  • morning sickness
  • motion sickness
  • muscle fatigue
  • nausea
  • sinusitis
  • stimulation
  • ulcers
  • vomiting
So far, I can attest to headaches; I haven't taken Advil in two weeks, which is a huge record for me, the Advil junkie!   One swipe across my forehead and the headache is gone!   I can also attest to the nausea, which has also disappeared with one swipe across my belly.  Driving at night I pulled out the peppermint, just waved it under my nose, and I was totally energized!  Chip has found that it also helps with nasal congestion!  But sorry, someone else will have to try it out for morning sickness!

Anyway, I liked them so much, that I've signed on as a Wellness Advocate, so that I can get 25% off and help others.  If you'd like to try a sample, just give me a call!   And just like Chewbacca, I'll be there!  :)

So tune in as I try new oils (they have 40 different single essential oils and many blends).  I cannot wait to try them all!!   May the force of good health and essential oils be with you!
