About 10 years ago or so, I discovered the world of Essential Oils. I had never heard of them. Or at least if I did, I didn’t pay much attention. Some ladies were discussion mold issues in their home and one was recommending a blend of oils referred to as Thieves Essential Oil Blend as a way to attack. I was intrigued to say the least. We have an older home and mildew seemed to be wreaking havoc on our basement at the time. So I did a little research and decided to give them a try. I was hooked. And I still am. I use some type of oil in some way almost daily now and am convinced that they’re effective for a lot of things.<\/p>\n

  1. Cleaning. I add them to my homemade cleaner for extra boost and antibacterial power.<\/li>\n
  2. Health. This isn’t health advice – just telling you how I use them. I use Peppermint oil to lessen the pain of a headache, to clear sinus congestion, for fresh breath, as a help for heartburn and other tummy issues, as perfume!<\/li>\n
  3. Nice smells. Diffusing essential oils makes my house smell great!<\/li>\n
  4. In cooking. I admit I don’t do this as much just because I kind of forget to, but a little of certain essential oils (similar to what’s in your spice cabinet) goes a LONG way.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

There are a LOT of good (yes most are good companies even if some reps like to bash the other companies) EO companies out there but this one has been around for a long, long, time and from everything I’ve experienced, they’re top notch so I just stick with them and have no plans to switch, even though I am surrounded with a whole lot of people who try to tell me I should for whatever reason. And yes, it’s Young Living. I like Do Terra too, believe it or not. I’m just happy where I am.<\/p>\n
