Why Do I Use Essential Oils for My Family Care?

Essential oils are soooo cool! There is literature that indicates essential oils can boost your immune system so much that it can help form a type of super-immunity because of the extra secondary metabolites, which is incredible! They also can bring benefits and soothing within 20 seconds! I love the balance and refreshing scent they bring to my family.

I started using them when I was pregnant and on bed rest with my 2nd and that led to diffusing to kill bad bacteria, which became learning how to kill my kids viruses.  Thank heavens, cause the doctor just sent us home and told us to wait it out even though it was pretty severe.  Its been an incredible journey of learning and testing, with different oils and theories for care.

Now that I have discovered pure, therapeutic grade essential oils I use them for nearly everything.  There are essential oils you can use for cooking, cleaning, and nearly all ailments, conditions, and quick emergency situations (which happen consistently with 4 kids).  What is really amazing is that once we started using them for everything we stared saving tons of money.  We didn't need to buy so many specialty products for our hygiene, our hair, our cleaning supplies, our first aid kit, and for our arsenal of cooking spices. (Although I still like to have other natural remedies on hand too. :)

We started feeling healthier, calmer, happier, and empowered.  We didn't need so many expensive doctor visits and were able to easily educate ourselves for how to handle our own needs quickly, safely and effectively.  Not only did I save money by replacing less safe and functional items, but I found out about a rewards program that got me up to 55% off retail!  Using the monthly sales and free product specials, it made the pure essential oils cheaper than the low quality oils I started with, but they worked 10x better!

It truly has been a win-win scenario for my family to start using truly pure and potent essential oils daily.  Using these along with good eating and lifestyle choices, I lost 85lbs in 9 months and my 2 year old boy doesn't throw his 45 minute tantrums every day anymore.  Life is about finding what works and what we each need to help us progress.  I truly feel like I have found that for my family.  It's amazing!
