Welcome! I am so excited to share my love of essential oils with you. They have been such an amazing tool for my family on our wellness journey.
At first I was skeptical, as I had tried essential oils with little results. Since discovering doTERRA, I’ve been astounded at the many ways we have been able to support our body’s own healing. And this is a big deal to a mama with adrenal fatigue after years of being on-call, whose kids have struggled with Lyme disease, Epstein Barr, and even staph infections. But through our complimentary and integrative approach to medicine, and the help of our nurse practitioner, naturopathic physician, and team of essential oil experts (including nurses and doctors), we are thriving!
Over the years, I have had countless testimonies in my own home, and in the lives of those that I support. In almost any circumstance, when discussing a health goal or concern, I am confident in replying:
“I’ve got an oil for that!”
Before we move on, here are some questions to ponder:
- How would you like your life to be different?
- What are your top health concerns? You know, the ones that keep you up at night, or uncomfortable during the day, that keep you from living your best life?
- How long have these been an issue for you?
- What have you tried so far?
- What is this costing you in time, money, and happiness?
- Are you ready to try something different?
What Are Essential Oils?
If you have ever enjoyed the scent of a rose, you’ve experienced the aromatic qualities of essential oils. These naturally occurring, volatile aromatic compounds are found in the seeds, bark, stems, roots, flowers, and other parts of plants. Essential oils provide plants with protection against environmental threats and play a role in plant pollination. In addition to their intrinsic benefits to plants and being beautifully fragrant to people, essential oils have long been used for food preparation, beauty treatment, and health-care practices.
