Stop Poisoning the Immune System: Heavy Metal Cleanse

According to this, I have some changes to make. White sugar, white flour, high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, stress and chemicals in personal care products and home cleaners negatively affect the immune system.

He warns about cooking with aluminum foil and using aluminum containers to cook and store food. I drink seltzer from aluminum cans. I guess I have to look for glass bottles of seltzer. Good luck with that. 

He also warns about the curly-q light bulbs that contain mercury gas. If they break they release mercury gas in your home. I knew about that and I don't buy them anymore. I have enough mercury in my mouth from fillings when I was young. I don't need more in my light bulbs.

Well, at least I'm not using toxic makeup, personal care products or toxic home cleaners. I replaced every cleaner in my home with Thieves household cleaner and I either make my own personal care products with essential oils or I buy them from Young Living. And with their new makeup line, I'm slowly switching to non-toxic makeup. 

He recommends 3 drops of Young Living Juva Cleanse twice a day and 4 capsuls or two teaspoons of Sulfurzyme (powder) with lime oil and Ninja Red as a heavy metal cleanse. 

Since Sulfurzyme is no longer available at YL. We buy MSM sulfur products at herbalhealer.com

Young Living Diffusers

So many reasons to have a diffuser in your home, and when you get one, you'll wonder how you lived without it. A diffuser creates an atmosphere. What atmosphere do you want? For a spa atmosphere- try eucalyptus and lavender. For a holiday atmosphere- try Christmas Spirit or cinnamon bark, nutmeg, clove and orange for Thanksgiving. 

Diffusers support respiratory health. My daughter recently recovered from a serious lung ailment that caused repeated visits to urgent care. It was a scary situation. We ran two diffusers in her bedroom for several weeks. She said they were calming and comforting, and helped her to sleep and breathe.

A diffuser serves as a non-toxic air freshener. You can toss all your canned air fresheners, plug-ins and candles because those things contain toxins that you should not be breathing. You can get asthma or chemical pnemonia from constant exposure to chemicals, especially during winter when your home has no air circulation.

Women's Hormones and Sclaressence

An excellent video about the role of hormones in the body and why hormonal balance is so important. I got my free bottle of Sclaressence through essential rewards in February, when this video was made. Please note that Sclaressence is not this month's ER promotion. 

I use 4 drops of Sclaressence on my neck each night diluted with about 1/2 tsp. of evening primrose oil. 

6 Signs of Hormonal Imbalance

Hormones play an important role in a woman's life. Most women don't realize how important until their hormones are out of wack and they suffer the consequences of this imbalance. Birth control pills and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) are examples of synthetic hormones produced by drug companies. The problem with synthetic estrogen is that it will always have side effects.

Phytoestrogens come from plant sources and can be used by women who need additional estrogen or seek a hormonal balance. Phytoestrogens are milder than a woman's own estrogen and are easily utilized and metabolized by our bodies.

According to Dr. David Stewart, post menopausal women are not estrogen deficient. The problem is a progesterone deficiency. There are several essential oils that have hormonal benefits--anise, fennel, sage, clary sage, blue tansy, tarragon, cypress, myrtle, and wild tansy are among them.

Sage and clary sage have estrogenic qualities. They stimulate the same receptor sites that estrogens do and they help balance a woman's hormones. They may also stimulate a woman's body to produce her own natural estrogens. For more information about using essential oils for hormone balance, read Dr. John Lee's book, What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Menopause. 

I took prescription hormone repacement (Jinteli) for two years to help with the unpleasant symptoms of menopause. But I kept searching for a better answer and I found it in essential oils and bio-identical progesterone cream. Young Living's Progessence Plus for added progesterone and Sclaressence for estrogen balance was the answer for me.

Synthetic estrogens are risky, which is why I went off of them. The following sypmtoms can be caused or made made worse by birth control pills and prescription hormone replacement:
acceleration of aging, allergies, breast tenderness, decreased sex drive, depression, fatigue, fibrocystic breasts, foggy thinking, headaches, hypoglycemia, increased risk of strokes, infertility, irritability, memory loss, miscarriage, osteoporosis, premenopausal bone loss, PMS, thyroid dysfunction, uterine cancer, uterine fibroids, water retention, weight gain, gall bladder disease, and a variety of autoimmune disorders such as lupus.

That list is a big risk to take, so it makes sense to try something natural first that has no side effects and see how that works for you before turning to synthetic hormones produced by drug companies.

Emotional Support with Essential Oils: Why I use them and YOU should too!

Essential oils are tools that help your brain walk through life's stressful situations. Even if you don't acknowledge stress, your body still has to deal with it. Stuffing everything inside and saying nothing doesn't make it go away. I ignored a stressful situation for years and it affected me mentally and physically. I reached a point where I had to confront it for my own peace of mind.

Our brains are constantly analyzing our environment. The nervous system, our emotional center, is the only system in the body that never shuts off. Constant energy flows through the brain , and if our emotions are troubled, that will trickle down and negatively affect every other system in the body. Muscles will tense, sleep can be affected, blood pressure will rise, we just won't feel well physically or mentally.

Essential oils help the body handle stress by supporting the emotional center of the brain and helping the brain process the stress, so that you can work through it. Come in at 4 minutes to get right to the good stuff in this video.

Young Living Essential Oils? Why You Need Them!

What does this video have to do with essential oils? Whoever posted this video with the given title should have explained. Maybe I can clear things up with my story. About ten years ago, my doctor prescribed an FDA-approved drug called Lupron to help me deal with chronic pain from endometriosis. It was an injection administered properly and it nearly destroyed my life.

The drug caused a list of side-effects that were worse than the pain I was trying to cure. I still suffer from chronic insomnia since taking Lupron because it caused permanent neurological damage. The drug messed up my brain's ability to produce the hormones needed to fall asleep and stay asleep. It wasn't until I started using hormone balancing essential oils such as fennel, clary sage and myrtle that I was able to sleep well enough to hold down a part-time job after eight years of exhaustion.My insomnia would last for days until all I could do was lay in a bed and shake.

I think the reason this video was given its title is because essential oils are not dangerous. There is not a single documented case of anyone dying or being damaged by a properly applied essential oil. Oils are inherently safe, which is why anyone can use them without a doctor's supervision.

Of course, there are precautions you need to follow, things you should learn about oils before using them. Some oils should not be taken internally. Oils should be diluted properly. If you have certain medical conditions, you can't use certain oils. There is a learning curve with essential oils, which is why the companies that produce pure medicinal oils have distributors who act as guides.

I deeply regret that I didn't try something natural when I was having so much pain. I turned to a prescription drug and it messed me up. The FDA is not an all-knowing entity. To say that essential oils are not safe because they're not FDA-approved and regulated is a foolish statement. My life was nearly destroyed by an FDA-approved drug.

In fact, FDA-approved drugs are the fourth leading cause of death in the United States. How many FDA-approved drugs have been recalled since the 1970's because they were killing and harming people? The answer is 35. About 100,000 people die each year from adverse reactions to prescription drugs, not because they overdosed, but because some drugs on the market are dangerous.

Some people are afraid of essential oils, but they don't hesitate to take over-the-counter meds and prescription meds. They have it backwards. And one of my passions is to make people realize how safe essential oils are despite all the negative talk about them. Learn more about the healing power of essential oils at oil-testimonials.com

Oil in the Spotlight: Myrrh

Myrrh is one of the safest, mildest, gentlest oils in nature and is probably best known as one of the gifts brought by the Magi to the Christ child in biblical times. Esther was massaged with the oil of myrrh every day for six months in preparation for her marriage to the king. The Egyptians used myrrh as an insect repellant and sunshield for thousands of years. It is the most effective natural sunscreen.

Myrrh was the oil  most commonly used by the people of ancient times, and it is mentioned more than 150 times in the Bible. Pregnant mothers applied myrrh oil for protection against infectious diseases and to elevate feelings of well-being. Myrrh also was diffused and inhaled during labor to reduce anxiety and facilitate calmness. And it was massaged on perineum to facilitate stretching.

Today myrrh essential oil is used for oral health, intestinal health, skin conditions and pain relief. It is a powerful wound healer that may be applied directly to the skin without dilution. Myrrh soothes respiratory conditions and painful skin conditions. It reduces the appearance of wrinkles and stretch marks.

Myrrh can be applied topically, put in a diffuser, inhaled directly from the bottle or from the palms. It also can be taken internally. If you're new to using myrrh, use a carrier oil to dilute before applying to the skin to see how you react to it.

When used aromatically, myrrh essential oil aids in the release of fear and negativity. It uplifts the mind, relieves anxiety and soothes stress.

Menopause: What is it? What is TRULY happening??

Essential oils can greatly help a woman through the transition of menopause. I use Young Living Progessence Plus and SclarEssence to balance my hormones along with bio-identical hormone cream. This helps improve my mood, my sleep, and the youthful look of my skin. My skin was terrible when I went through menopause. I had red patches all over my face.

I didn't want to start on prescription hormone replacement, but I did take it for a while before I knew my other options. I finally found what works for me. And Young Living pure essential oils have played a big part in my feeling good at 55 and still being able to fit into size 6 jeans. Come in at 5:50 to get straight to the good stuff in this video.

ARE THE CHEMICALS IN MY PRODUCTS REALLY HURTING ME?

Today in America, we have more than 100,000 chemicals on the market that have never been properly studied to see if they're toxic to human health. The average home contains more than 63 hazardous products, and the average woman is exposed to 300 chemicals daily in her personal care and home cleaning products.

The number 2 cause of death in America is cancer. According to research, 95% of cancer cases are caused by environment and the chemicals we're exposed to. This is why I've adopted a chemical-free lifestyle. I no longer spray my bathroom with Tilex and hold my breath while doing it. I no longer spray Lysol in my home because it's loaded with toxins. I'm the gatekeeper of my home and I don't want to poison my family and set them up for diseases later in life
