Diffuser Blends for Spring

3 / 29 / 176 / 1 / 22

Spring is in the Air. Literally!

Here are a few blends I’m going to try out to bring Spring to my office diffuser over the next few weeks!

You’ll notice a trend. In three of the 4 blends, I’m using Geranium? But why, you may ask.

My Essential Life book talks about how Geranium, when used aromatically, assists the body from going from feeling Neglected (a feeling we may definitely be feeling after the long winter) to feeling Mended.

And in my Modern Essentials book lists Geranium’s primary aromatic uses for agitation, air cleansing, physical stress, and aiding in PMS support.

I’ve also found some other delicious sounding blends so I’ve started a Diffuser Blends Board on Pinterest if you’d like to follow along.

dĹŤTERRA 2017 East Coast Leadership Recap

3 / 22 / 176 / 8 / 22

My mind is still reeling from dĹŤTERRA East Coast Leadership Retreat. My time spent in Orlando at the beginning of March was so motivational, heartwarming and invigorating.

I arrived late in Orlando on Feb 28. My business bestie, Char McGie, graciously let me stay with her for the week and sent her patient husband to come to pick me up at the airport. I say, patient, because he was so kind, despite our flight being stuck at the gate for an hour. Another Canadian wellness advocate, Kelsey Reidl, was staying with Char as well so after quick hellos, it was off to bed because our next 2 days were going to be jam-packed with sessions full of listening and absorbing and brain reeling amazingness.

We rushed over to the Orlando convention center in the morning to find parking and raced through the center and then all the way over to the Hyatt for a breakfast hosted by our upline, Ange Peters. These convention centres are no joke! They are huge! I should’ve brought a scooter! After hugs and great conversation with so many high-level leaders on the team, we headed back over to the convention center to grab seats for the day.

The day started with keynote speaker, Justin Su’a. I’ve been listening to his podcast “Increase Your Impact” leading up to Leadership and I really loved how short & sweet his style is. On Weds, he spoke to us about 4 principles on How to Do Hard Things and the first principle really spoke to me.

Discover Your Why

When starting a network marketing business, someone in your upline usually tells you that you should write out what your why is. Sometimes you know right away. Sometimes you put a few words to paper but they haven’t really sunk in yet. This exercise is just as important as a company creating a mission or vision statement. When things get tough it’s always important to know what your why is. This will fuel you when getting up in the morning and designing a life where you leave a legacy that you want to put out into the world.

So what legacy do we want to leave on this world?

My why is to teach people how to be proactive with their health using essential oils as a key tool so that they never have to deal with a health crisis.

If I can help one person from experiencing the pain or fear of an auto-immune diagnosis then that will make my heart happy. But to truly create a legacy I needed to set my sight higher. I want to teach over 10,000 people how to take care of themselves proactively and I’m screaming from the rooftop this goal.

Justin Su’a finished up his talk with principles 2, 3 and 4 of doing hard things, which included flexing your positive muscles, learning from failure and being consistent with what works for you.

One of my favourite analogy stories that Justin told about being consistent and patient was about how bamboo grows. You can consistently water the bamboo plant and nothing happens, year after year, you can water the plant and nothing happens. All the while, the roots are taking shape and taking hold and then bam in the 5th year a bamboo plant can grow 90 ft in 6 weeks. At the end of the day, we can share oils, and post about them on social media but if we give up then we’ll never see the bamboo plant grow from our watering efforts.

In addition, to some amazing motivations here are some compensation, do good in the world and healthcare updates.

Empowerment Bonus

There is new bonus compensation for Premier & Silver leaders was announced. dĹŤTERRA has Leadership Pools that are divided amongst all the leaders which is more than many other network marketing companies offer and now they’ve announced one for the middle ranks. The total sum of the pool will be made up of 1% of the global company volume. Each Premier and Silver who qualify will receive one share in the Empowerment Pool. To be eligible, a Wellness Advocate must be paid as a Premier or Silver that month. In addition, the Wellness Advocate needs to be the personal enroller of a new member (Wholesale Customer or Wellness Advocate) who enrolls with 100 PV or higher-order that month.

Annual Donations

But the thing that really filled my heart was seeing how much good dĹŤTERRA is doing in the world. Over the last 12 months, dĹŤTERRA and its customers have raised over $4 Million dollars for the Healing Hands Foundation. Not only is this company completely successful from a corporate capitalism standpoint (no debt) but they are so heart-centred. The Foundation builds schools in many of the communities where our oils are sourced. They help countries dealing with natural disasters from Haiti where Vetiver is sourced to Nepal where Wintergreen comes from. I’m so blessed to be part of such a giving company.

Healthcare Disruption

 My last update is that dōTERRA wants to create disruption in the healthcare industry. To do that they want to nurture relationships with healthcare practitioners. They want to establish a standard of care, and patient protocol and create science and validation.

  • They want to create new partnerships with healthcare practitioners to respect their education and the vast knowledge they already have. If you want to learn more or contact Dr. Hill about healthcare professionals, please email healthcare@doterra.com or visit https://sourcetoyou.com/healthcare/.

For other updates on new product announcements head on over to the doTERRA blog.

This Leadership Retreat was everything I imagined and I’m so happy I attended. My heart is on fire for this company and I’m so blessed I’ve found a “side hustle” that lights me up.

Cleaning Up The Laundry Room

9 / 22 / 169 / 22 / 16

Disclaimer: I am a doTERRA Wellness Advocate and am in love with the company, products and helping others learn to be proactive with their health & wealth.

On my quest to reduce toxins in our household I tackled products found in the laundry room this month.

Dream Laundry Room

Insert Picture of my Dream Laundry Room 🙂

Did you know that laundry detergent & dryer sheets can contain surfactants, stabilizers and phosphates that are known to release carcinogens that are harmful to our body?* In my quest to reduce my exposure to toxins so that my body is fully supported in having a healthy immune system without any MS symptoms or decreased quality of life it’s an easy choice for me to switch out products in our home that could be harmful.

Here are 2 easy ways to makeover products in your laundry room to reduce toxins you or your family are exposed to.

Laundry Detergent

On my last LRP (loyalty rewards program) order from doTERRA I grabbed a bottle of laundry detergent. I’ve been using organic brands from my local grocery store but have made the switch to doTERRA’s brand as I absolutely love the company and earn amazing points towards free products every month on the LRP program. It’s better than Shoppers Optimum!

Cold Busting Remedies

7 / 27 / 167 / 27 / 16

The week before I was getting ready for the MS Bike I came down with a horrible cold. It was my first one since getting diagnosed with MS in 2014. I was super shocked that it had actually been that long but it just goes to show you how well I take care of myself. I knew I needed to use my cold busting remedies stat!

In 2015 I discovered that every time I felt a cold coming on I could hit it with my cold busting remedies and I generally felt better in a few days without the cold going full blown.

With a combination of taking over the counter Advil Cold & Sinus, diffusing essential oils and drinking a garlic tea concoction I’ve figured out how my body best fights off colds. Sharing this information in case you feel drawn to trying for yourself.

Garlic Tea Instructions:

  1. Take 1 – 2 Garlic Gloves. I smoosh (technical term) or chop them up finely and boil them in hot water.
  2. Add 1 spoonful of raw honey. If you can find manuka honey that’s even more amazing.
  3. I then add 1 drop of lemon essential oil and 1 drop of oregano oil to the liquid. Be careful that you use a lot of water as the oregano oil by doTERRA is potent stuff.

Cold Busting Remedy

Warning: Your Breath Will Suffer From This Tea 🙂

Dear MS, I kind of forgot you existed. It’s been Dear MS,
I kind of forgot you existed.
It’s been 9 years since you showed up in my life, 4 years since I’ve experienced symptoms and I am now having my first relapse since my diagnosis. I heard you. I’m well aware you’re still around. But you’re not really my main squeeze. You’re like an ex that you think about once in a blue moon. Reminding me of all the ways I didn’t take care of myself like I can & do today. 
You brought me to my knees this morning in tears. The result of reading MRI results at 6 am. 
I’ve let myself grieve the results of the new lesions on my spine today. I’ve cried, stared into space and I’ve let myself worry. I’ve run through all the worst-case scenarios and asked Mike to provide me calming validation I would have support in case they were to ever happen because my monkey brain needs it. So tonight, I’ll run an Epsom salt bath with essential oils. I’ll plug in my phone away from our bedroom and I’ll curl up with a book and turn off the lights before 9pm. 

And tomorrow I’ll go into research mode. There is so much to learn about EBV in my B cells and how it may be reactivated and causing this flare. I read the research when it came out but I didn’t really pay attention. I consulted a naturopath who gave me a few tinctures that I never ended up finishing. 

Despite the tears and the worry. I KNOW deep down I’m going to be ok. I KNOW I will be fine. I KNOW I can take care of myself in a holistic way so that this doesn’t happen again. I have that much FAITH in my ability to heal myself. And with a healthcare team, I’ll get to the bottom of it. 

There are so many things I’m trying to heal right now. Its truly overwhelming at times… from
- Liver Support
- Iron Overload 
- EBV & B Cell Research 
- Reduce Inflammation 
- Shed PostPartum Weight
- Heal Pelvic Floor Prolapse 
- Heal Bruised Rib
- Heal Sinus Cold

I know that I have to focus on baby steps and do one thing at a time to bring back my vitality. 

I just needed to list all of the things I’m tackling so they don’t reside on a to-do list just in my brain. Ok plugging in my phone and am off to start my delicious evening routine so I can approach tomorrow feeling fresh.
