OUR OILY JOURNEY

    Last winter season wasn't nice to our health. My poor kids have been through so many cycles of antibiotics that I just had enough! So my search for more natural treatment had started... After so much research I stumbled upon Young Living Essential oils. I found a girl on Instagram who used them. Madison was very patient with me, answering all my questions, and pointing me to the right source to learn more. When I was ready, Madison helped me to purchase the Young Living essential oils. Ever since the oils arrived, our lives have been changed. We absolutely love them!
    If to be honest, the love for oils didn't start right away. I was skeptical and lazy to give it my all to use them. Until in July, my poor Adrian came up with Fifth disease (aka hand, foot and mouth disease). Little guy was screaming on a top of his lungs all morning long. He couldn't eat, play or do anything at all... At one point when he was screaming with his mouth wide open, I noticed that his whole throat area is covered in white blisters. Then I took off his socks and saw huge watery blisters. I knew right away what it was! But I had no idea what to do to make my boy comfortable, that's when I remembered I have oils ( I have neglected them for few weeks). I remembered Madison telling me about Pinterest having lots of recipes, and sure enough I found that a few drops of Thieves mixed with coconut oil should help. That's exactly what I did. I am not kidding you, after I dipped Adrian's pacifier into the mixture, minutes later he stopped crying. Then I tried giving him a drink, he took it. Then some food and he ate. I kept on reapplying the Thieves and coconut oil on his pacifier as soon as he showed signes of discomfort, by evening I didn't even have to do it so often. I also put some Laveder oil on his feet, as I read that Laveder can help heal faster. Couple of days later blisters from Adrian's throat and feet were gone! We had our happy boy back! And that's when this momma right here started to believe that oils do work! 
   I have so much more to share with you, about our oily journey, but that's some other time. Stay tuned for more oily adventures!
A happy mail day! 

 
Our collection is sure growing... 

 Thieves is also our favorite go to remedy when we have sore throat! At first signs of sickness, I add 1 drop of each thieves and lemon essential oils to my tea, and no cold can stay around!
