Why Young Living Essential Oils: My Testimony

The obvious question to any blog about oils is... why? What got you here? What steered you away from modern medicine and into the world of natural healing and essential oils? And those are good questions. Why use oils for a headache when you can knock it out by taking a few over the counter medicines? For me, it has been building ever since I became a mom. I just looked at my first son and knew, I wanted to be very intentional about what went into his body. From food, to soaps and lotions, to medicine, you name it. I felt like I was doing pretty well, but then along came my second. I was weary of one more script for penicillin for a possible viral ear infection. I was weary of dragging 2 kids to the doctor, just to get sick by sitting in the doctor's office. I was weary of feeling helpless.

Well along came the oil that changed everything for me: Thieves. A blend of oils that honestly smells like gingerbread cookies or Christmas potpourri. At first, I was skeptical. Then I used it. I witnessed the medicinal properties captured inside this tiny bottle. My son's croupy cough was almost immediately downgraded to a common cough. Did I mention he wasn't even 2 months old at this point? A few months later, I signed up for my starter kit (Find out more here: http://thelemondroplounge.com/blog/something-youll-never-regret-young-living-everyday-oils-kit).

The kit comes in, and I get to WORK! I have a 2 year old that cannot sleep past 6am. Nor can he settle down before 9:30pm, nor can he stay in his bed all night. Well, he still won't settle before 9:30, he still gets up around midnight and moseys into our bedroom, BUT, he has been known to sleep until 8am on a few weekdays. If not 8, at least 6:45-7:00. THIS. IS. HUGE. We are a well rested family! It took off from here. I go to oils for everything now. A cut or scrape, a headache, a tummy ache, a teething baby, a fever... the list is endless. It's almost a game for me. Find which oil will help with this! Convince my husband, Nick, that this isn't a hoax! (I've finally got him convinced!)

The greatest thing about all of this though, is seeing oils help people. I LOVE suggesting oils to someone and following up to see if they work! There's NOTHING better than when hearing someone say THEY WORKED! I always believe they will. But I want others to see for themselves that these oils are powerful gifts from God.

So that's my story! What will yours be!? How can I help you? What are you currently struggling with? Are you looking for a more natural course of action where possible? Comment and let me know!

This is my testimony. Hands down, my favorite oil to keep my family healthy.
