Welcome!

If you have happened upon this blog by accident or if you went looking for it, welcome! It was born as a result of answering the same questions over and over and I thought a consolidated place for those answers would be easier for me and beneficial to those asking me directly as well as those searching for answers on their own.

A friend of mine introduced me to Young Living Essential Oils a few months ago. I am the world's biggest skeptic. I truly had no faith that any of this was "for real". Three things made me give it a try:

1) the person sharing is legit. What I mean by this is that she has 6, yes S-I-X, children. She works and she home schools all 6 of them. She has her stuff together and I do not believe that she would have introduced these products into her home without diligent research.

2)I have seen modern medicine FAIL... miserably, and repeatedly. My faith in the medical "establishment" is virtually nonexistent (except for all the amazing nurses that I know and love, of course!), and truly, I only see it getting worse from here.

3) What do I have to lose? Seriously, I have felt like pure crap for the last year or so... this stuff was worth a try!

So, here we are! I tried it and so far: it is working for me and for my family! It all started with a  little sample packet of peppermint oil! I plan to document all that I've used so far with results on this blog. I hope you will follow along with me and give it a try for your family!
