Warning: This is a non-picture post and may contain actual thoughts provoked by something other than my darling children and our small adventures in life.
I spent the weekend in Salt Lake at a doTERRA convention. What is doTERRA? Funny you should ask, they are fabulous essential oils that quite frankly may change the world. (You would never guess I am fresh out of the convention room right?) But seriously , I really do love these things. Wait, wait don't stop reading yet, here are my three reasons why - in three minutes or less.
1-SAFE - They are completely natural and the only oils available that are 100% Pure. I can put them on myself and my kids and never worry about side effects. (Example: while using Peppermint to relieve a head ache, I am not only saving my liver and who knows what else from regular over the counter stuff, but I am actually improving my respiratory system and soothing digestion. I can then use that same Peppermint the next day to eliminate a fever in minutes. )
2-EASY - One or two drops on the feet, directly on affected area, diffused or in the mouth (directly or in gelcap). Less is more and no right or wrong way.
3-AFFORDABLE - I am of the belief that financially this country will get worse before it gets better and who knows where health care is headed. Currently I am paying $20.00 for a regular office visit. (This does not include any prescriptions like overused antibiotics or something with side effects.) The average bottle of oil is around that same price, but can be used over and over for many different reasons and for the entire family. For me this means a feeling of empowerment that I can take my families basic health into my own hands.
Okay, if you didn't just skip over the last three paragraphs you can wake back up now and read about the rest of my weekend. Of course no trip to Salt Lake is complete without spending time with my best friend and my little brother. I spent a night with each. It has been a long time since I had Mac completely to myself. It was great to simply be with him and talk about life and what to do with it. Then as always is the case with Corbie, our conversations led us right into the morning hours without knowing. And yes Robert and/or Greg, we did solve some of the worlds problems. An added bonus of the trip was traveling and staying with my favorite cousins. There's nothing like good old fashioned family bonding. It's good to be back home with the fam, Halloween is just around the corner so my picture posts are not far off. (Oh and of course if you are interested in the oils please let me know.)
