Where has the time gone?....can't wait for my favorite time of year!

Time just keeps on screaming by, it's crazy how I blink and feel like I've skipped a month or two! Since my last post, I've finished my first Terrafit 90 day challenge, lost 25lbs. and started a second 90 challenge , this time as a participant and a Terrafit coach! It is not easy but It's something I am working on!! 

I have started counting down the days until Christmas..it's my favorite time of year!! I love the light, the music...the smells mmmmm!!!! This is my first Christmas with doTERRA so I was super excited when they announced that they were offering their Holiday Joy blend! I waited anxiously while my order traveled it's way here and it wasn't through my door more than 5 minutes before I had my oil bottle cracked open and was taking deep breaths filled with Christmas!! 

The Holiday Joy blend has White Fir, Wild Orange, Clove, Ginger, Cassia and Cinnamon Bark in it and each one of these oils can be used for so many different things, but together, they are best diffused! It smells strongly of Christmas tree and cinnamon and definitely helped get me into the Christmas spirit!!

I know, I know!! You are probably groaning and rolling your eyes, mumbling that we haven't even hit thanksgiving yet but I just can't help myself!! Put away your bahumbug, get a whiff of the Holiday Joy, and come sing a Christmas carol with me!!

I've really been looking back on my life the last little bit and its crazy to me that I have been researching and implementing essential oils in my life (and the lives of my family) for almost a year now and I have yet to come across something the oils don't help with. I continue to see result after result after result and I LOVE IT! With all the exciting things that these oils have done in my life, I've realized I need to get out there and share these things with the world!! I have been training to help educate others on how to implement essential oils into their lives and helping to reinvent healthcare in their own homes. It's one thing to be able to change your own life but to change the lives of others is one of the most humbling movements I've ever had a part in!

While the oils have blessed me mentally and physically, I've also been blessed from just simply sharing a gift with other people and helping to change their lives. I've been able to supplement my income and really enjoy being able to be home with my son! I'm not alone! I am helping other people do the same too!!! I have a team of Wellness Advocates that I pour my love, time and resources into! These organizations are absolutely thriving and I am ready to start some new organizations!!

I am looking for a serious applicant who can see a future with time and financial freedom as I have VERY high goals, and these Wellness Advocates will be going very far in this company with me!! If this sounds like something that might be a fit for you and you are interested, please send me an email to mydailyoils@yahoo.com or message me here and let's get this ball rolling!!!

5 Weeks Down, Only 7 To Go!!

Man, time is flying by so quickly I have to remind myself to slow down and breathe! 

Yesterday was the start of my 5th week of the 90 day terrafit challenge and things are going so good! I am eating healthier, exercising more and feeling great about my goals! My weight-in yesterday shows that all of my hard work is paying off with a 21lbs. total loss so far! I've hit my first weight loss goal in less time then I planned so I have been revisiting my goals every week to keep them updated and me on track!

There are some great apps out there to help keep track of food and fitness and the two I find I use the most on my iPhone are myfitnesspal and mapmyride. I track all of my food on myfitnesspal, keeping between 1200-1500 calories per day. Mapmyride helps me to track distance, pace, time, and calories burned when I walk to help me make sure I'm moving quick enough, long enough to burn the amount of calories I've planned for. 

The key to this challenge I've found is to plan and keep track of everything! I make my daily menu for two weeks out so I'm sure I have all of the food I need, no running out or trying to put something together at the last minute and I stick to the menu! If I don't do all of this, I find it's easier for me to stray from my plan and then I'm not losing like I want.

While it's not always easy, and I've been tempted to stuff my face with garbage, I have to pull myself back together and remind myself of why I am doing this, why it's so important for me to get healthy and lose the weight! I am definitely getting fit with terrafit!

I'm Getting Terrafit!!

Yikes it has been a while since my last post!! June just completely got away from me but I will do my best to keep posting every couple of days going forward!

So what's new? I'll tell you what's new in my life. I started the 90 day terrafit challenge almost 2 weeks ago and am loving it! Now you probably haven't heard of terrafit because it is BRAND NEW!

TERRAfit is a unique program sweeping the country and getting people great results. Simply put, TERRAfit is 'The Biggest Loser' from home, a 90-day program that will get you moving, eating better, and progressing toward your fitness goals like never before. The best part is you get total accountability, coaching, daily challenges, and diet guidelines all for only $25! Participating in the challenge gives you a chance to win a sweepstakes style contest that rewards the top individuals and teams with thousands of dollars in cash prizes. You could actually make money while losing weight!

Now when I first heard about the 90 terrafit challenge, I was a little skeptical but definitely curious as I've been looking for something to help me drop some lbs and a chance to win money to do it...heck yeah! I looked up their website and while this is not a doTERRA program, they recommend following the program using essential oils and a couple of other doTERRA products as support.

You are put into teams of 5, you can pick your teammates or you can choose to be added to a random group. The idea is that you support your teammates in whatever their fitness goals are and they'll support you too. You have people who will help hold you accountable and encourage you to stay on track.

I was concerned about the healthy and unhealthy food lists I kept hearing about, I've done more diets than I can count and have always had issues with the meal plans so the first thing I did was find these "lists" I was so worried about. I had to laugh at myself as I started reading through them, not only is there a ton of variety of foods I can eat, its mostly food I am eating now. The unhealthy list was a little bit more difficult for me as I am addicted to sugars, pastas, breads mmmmm....not good!! This is something I need to do for myself and my family so I decided to give it a try and I signed up for the first ever 90 day terrafit challenge on June 23rd! Click here to read the challenge rules and view the healthy/unhealthy food lists. View the terrafit intro videos here.

My initial weight-in was painful to do as I hadn't weighted myself in a while and am a tad embarrassed to admit that I've gained a few pounds since having my son. That's ok though because I AM CHANGING THAT! The first week was tough too, I cut all sugars out (with the exception of fruit), I was eating more veggies, I started counting calories, I was committed! I was most surprised with counting calories, I didn't realize how many calories I was eating every day, so cutting down to between 1200-1400 per day was a bit of a struggle for me!


On top of changing my diet, I had to force myself to stop making excuses and to follow through with everything I'd planned for this challenge. I wasn't able to follow along with the terrafit workout for most of the week, I ordered it a little late so I was waiting for it in the mail but I started walking! My back has been troubling me for a couple of months now so I really had to force myself to get moving.

I signed up for my first ever 5k, the color run and with the support of  my good buddy Michelle, I got my walk on and got chalked up! My legs were killing me, my back not so great but the feeling I had once I'd finished was totally worth it..what a rush!!


As hard as my first week was on the challenge, my persistence paid off! I had my first weigh-in on Monday June 1st and I lost 4.6lbs!! I was expecting...hoping for maybe a 2-3 lbs weight loss so you can imagine how excited I was...am!

I have my next weigh-in this coming Monday and with all the hard work I've done this week, I'm hoping for another big weight loss number!!

There will be another 90 day terrafit challenge starting in July as well as one in August.

Can We Talk About Headaches For A Minute?

For those of you who have never had a headache, never felt the skull crushing pain of a migraine...well this post is not for you! But it may be for someone you know!

I have suffered from headaches on a weekly basis for as long as I can remember. They have ranged from a mild throbbing in my temples to a full blown migraine making me nauseous(or worse), where my fingers start to tingle and my arms go numb, my vision getting fuzzy like the static on an old tv. I've been to the doctor, pills, shots, cat scans, acupuncture, diet, but nothing seemed to help. Welcome doTERRA essential oils!

 

I am proud to say that I am no longer getting headaches on a weekly basis, not even the little ones! I might have a headache maybe once a month now and have found my perfect solution! Just another way the oils have helped me and my family!

There are several essential oil combinations out there for headaches so I am going to share the ones that have worked best for me! 

When I start feeling a headache come on and I know it's not going to be a bad one, I'll pull out my

peppermint and use a drop on each temple along m hairline (I made the mistake of getting too close to m eyes the first time and OUCH!!!), massaging gently for about 60 seconds. A lot of people recommended the PastTense at the base of my skull for headaches but I have found that Deep Blue works better for me, it relieves my headache more quickly and tends to keep it gone for longer than the past tense. (Don't get me wrong, PastTense works really well for most people, just didn't seem to cut the mustard for me)

So peppermint on my temples and deep blue on my neck at the base of my skull and I typically remain headache free!

Now if I wake up with a headache, preventative care is out the window! I've tried the peppermint and deep blue but neither seemed to dull the ache so I did some digging. After reading through a ton of testimonials, a few from friends even, I tried a few other things and have found them to really help me! I start with a small bowl and approximately 2 cups for freezing cold water. I add 2-3 drops of the peppermint oil to it then soak it all up into a facecloth which I then alternate applying to my forehead and the back of my neck. This helps so much!!

A drop of Frankincense on my finger then applied directly to the roof of my mouth and within minutes, my headache has slowed to a dull throb and after about 15 minutes it's completely gone!

I had a REALLY bad migraine and a friend let me try a drop of their Helichrysum on the roof of my mouth and the migraine was gone almost instantly. Now the headache did return a little bit later on, but it was not as severe and I've read that a few more applications of the Helichrysum that day and the headache would have stayed away for good! Incredible right? If I hadn't experienced it myself, I would have believed it myself! Helichrysum is a more expensive oil so thank goodness for the Loyalty Rewards Program! I am expecting my own bottle of Helichrysum in the mail tomorrow and all I had to pay for was the shipping and small redemption fee and I cannot wait to try it out to completely conquer the migraine! Click here to learn about the Loyalty Rewards Program (LRP).

Now I know that some of these little tricks and tips don't always work for everyone so here are some other headache remedies:

-Dab a small drop of lavender, eucalyptus, or peppermint oil on each temple. (remember to apply as far away from your eye as possible...lesson learned!!)

-Raising the temperature of the hands 15°F by soaking them in warm water with a drop of lavender and ginger oils seems to short-circuit a vascular headache such as a migraine by regulating circulation.

-  In a roller bottle
   2 drops Marjoram
   2 drops Geranium
   2 drops Helichrysum
   2 drops Peppermint
   2 drops PastTense
   2 drops Frankincense
   1 drop Lavender
   Top with fractionated coconut oil and apply to back of the neck, forehead, temples, jaw/cheek in  front of each ear.

For nausea caused by headaches: 2 drops of Ginger to 1tblsp of sea salt then dissolve in 1 quart of cool water. Soak up the liquid in a facecloth and use as a cold compress.

Gardening with Essential Oils!

 

I've got my garden started, the little plants are starting to pop up in their little squares of dirt..it's time to get them planted! I have no shame when it comes to sharing my love for doTERRA Essential Oils and it's no different now in the garden! I want to go all natural this year and see how my garden grows so I started "digging" for information online and am going to share some of the better information that I've found!

Sprays: Add drops of essential oil to water in a spray bottle. Add a few drops of natural liquid soap such as castile soap to act as a surfactant, which will ensure uniform coverage on leaves and insect bodies. Spray directly onto fruits, vegetables, flowers, etc.

String: Soak a string in a mixture of water and essential oils. Hang the string between crops in the garden. This will deter flying insects.

Cloth Strips: Use a drop of essential oil on strips of fabric and hang throughout the garden. Add more drops as needed.

Cotton Ball: Use for animals or pests that like to burrow. Place directly on top of nests, burrows, etc.

Cartons & Containers: Bury the carton into the ground up to the top of the container. Add drops of essential oil to deter slugs, snails, mice, ground insects, etc.
Here are a few recipes to try. Remember that essential oils are powerful. Apply sparingly. Several applications, every few days may be necessary:

Insect Repellent for Plants
15 Drops of TerraShield Proprietary Blend
8 oz. Water
Couple Drops of Pure Liquid Castile Soap
Combine ingredients in a spray bottle. Spray the leaves, including underneath. Apply with a brush if you want to be more specific in application.

General Plant Protection
5 Drops Lavender
5 Drops Thyme
8 oz. Water
Combine ingredients. Use a spray bottle to mist the plants.

Mildew & Fungus Spray
1 Teaspoon High Proof Alcohol (alternatively, leave this out and add 1/2 tsp. of Baking Soda dissolved in the water.)
6 Drops each Melaleuca, Oregano, Thyme
8 oz. Water
Combine the first two ingredients. Shake to incorporate. Add water to oil mixture and place into a spray bottle. Spray in the evening when the sun cannot burn the leaves.

Vinegar is another great tool to have on hand when gardening. I use it a lot for cleaning so I usually have some in the cupboard. I have recently discovered that it's a great natural herbicide! It is a great, safe and natural way to kill weeds in your garden..or anywhere for that matter, just b careful because it will kill your grass! I simply put the distilled vinegar in a spray bottle and use it full strength. It really is that easy!

There are plenty of ways to use vinegar when you are gardening; you can give acid loving plants a boost by watering them every once in a while with a 1 cup of distilled vinegar to 1 gallon of water mix, you can kill slugs by spraying them with a mix of 1 part distilled vinegar to 1 part water, you can even add 1 tablespoon of distilled vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of sugar to a quart of water in a vase to preserve cut flowers or liven up droopy ones!!

Forget Spring, Lets Get Into Summer!!

Living in Alaska, it's not often we get summer weather as early as we have this year *knock on wood! While the flowers are starting to come up and everything is becoming green again for spring, we have had gorgeous, warm and sunny, summertime weather. I've got my veggie garden seeded and as I watch the buds start to peek up out of the warm dirt, my fingers itch to get them planted...early!!

It's the time of year for barbeques, beaches....allergies, and BUGS. I have to admit that this year I am pretty excited for everything that comes with summer because this year, I have essential oils in my life!

For some of us, the sun brings more than just warmth and summer..gorgeous sunny days mean bright red, itchy, painful sunburns! I can't be outside for more than 15 minutes without getting a burn regardless of the sunscreen I'd just slathered on, so every summer, I stock up on aloe vera plants because I can never seem to keep the stinking things alive! Well lucky for me I have my doTERRA Lavender!










Lavender is one of the most popular essential oils. It is a great anti-septic, pain-reliever, great for reducing stress and scars/stretch marks. The list is endless. It's a great support for first aid issues. I use lavender for just about everything, it is one of the best!

There are so many great doTERRA oils out there and with them being so versatile, you can use 1 oil for so many different things! The Melaleuca Oil is another one that I absolutely can't live without! Every time I crack open the bottle, memories of owies and tea tree oil hit and I feel comfort! It was one of the oils I remember my parents using on me when I was a kid!

Melaleuca is another great oil that can be used on sunburns but in my house, it's generally used on my 4 year old son because it can be used for sorts of different owies and infections, and has long been revered for it's antiseptic properties. The leaves of the Melaleuca tree have been used by aborigines for centuries to heal cuts, wounds and skin infections so it's is definitely a well used oil in my house! It is an excellent choice for wound care and tissue healing, and has long been known as a potent anti-fungal agent.

Melaleuca has been documented to kill many bacteria, viruses and fungi on contact, so it is excellent for cuts, wounds, burns and anywhere harmful bacteria can be found. With more than 90 different compounds combining to create this harmonious masterpiece, Melaleuca is nothing short of miraculous in it's effect.

Terrashield is doTERRA's all-natural, super-concentrated insect repellant formulated with a proprietary blend of 15 CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oils that have been scientifically shown to repel insects more effectively than any other synthetic insect repellents. Just a small amount of Terrashield will provide powerful coverage and will last up to 6 hours per application. It smells great, can be used safely by everyone in the family without worry, and is pretty cheap too when compared to other insect repellent products!!

 

I get all kinds of allergy flair ups in spring and carried over into summer and they are no fun!! I've mentioned this allergy shot in a previous blog post but I wanted to share it again because its one I use often!!

2 Drops Peppermint
2 Drops Lavender
2 Drops Lemon
In a shot glass, add water and presto!


Another one of the many amazing things about doTERRA essential oils, is that you can use several of them to cook with! I will be putting together a separate blog post to share some FANTASTIC recipes to include some of my favorite essential oils but I will share a little teaser below!

Mmmmm doesn't that just look so tasty?! Ok...twist my rubber arm, just one more because I'm craving salsa!!

The May Oil of The Month - Cedarwood!

If you've signed up for the Wholesale account with doTERRA, are on the Loyalty Rewards Program and have an LRP order with 125pv or more of product in it, set to go through before May 15th , then you have qualified for the free oil of the month for May!

The free oil of the month for May is...Cedarwood!! I am pretty excited about this oil because I have been looking at the Cedarwood for a bit now, debating on whether or not to bite the bullet and buy it, in fact, I had added it to my LRP or for May at the end of April. Lucky me right!!

Known for its rich hue and warm, woody scent, Cedarwood essential oil provides a myriad of health benefits that date back to biblical times. Cedarwood is native to cold climates, thriving in high altitudes and growing up to 100 feet. Reminiscent of its size and strength, Cedarwood has a grounding aroma that evokes feelings of wellness and vitality.

I would say that Cedarwood is a lesser known oil when you compare it to say Peppermint or Lavender but it has some fantastic properties! It can be used as insect repellant, an analgesic (a pain killer), an astringent (something that helps the body to shrink or constrict body tissues), a sedative, and as a calming oil. So that means that Cedarwood is a good oil to use for skin care, if you have acne, eczema, dandruff, general wounds, anxiety and more!

Diffusing or inhaling Cedarwood will help maintain healthy breathing and respiratory function and, when applied topically, Cedarwood promotes clear, healthy skin. Additionally, Cedarwood is frequently used in massage therapy to relax and soothe the mind and body. It is not recommended for internal use and should be used with caution if you are pregnant. High concentrations can irritate the skin so it is recommended to use in small amount or with dilution!

One Of Those Days!

Deep breath in...let it out, deep breath in...let it out....

Today has been one of those days! You know what I'm talking about...you wake up a little cranky, your back is a little sore because you slept funny, maybe it's that time of the month, you are irritable and your kids can't seem to get along right from the get go..yes..one of those days!
 
Well lucky for me (and my family!!!), I have three super awesome oils to help get me out of this funk! I have to share these oils with you right this moment because they have saved my life today!  Ok so maybe I'm being a little overdramatic but I am because I can!


The first oil sent to me from the angels is called Clarycalm and it is another one of doTERRA's AMAZING blends in fact all three oils I'm talking about today are! This is their women's monthly blend and it really does work like a charm!

My favorite way to experience this oil is to put a drop of it in my hands, cup and inhale. I LOVE the way this oils smells and can help calm me down immediately!

I roll it on my abdomen for cramps and within moments I am feeling better! This oil blend is definitely in my top 10 must have essential oils!


The second of my savior oils is called Balance and it does exactly what the name implies. This is doTERRA's grounding blend and it is geared towards the body's central nervous system.

I love to massage this oil on the back of my neck and along my spine on my lower back. This one helps me with anxiety and mood swings and takes about 10 or so minutes to really kick in! You can also put a drop in your hands, cup and inhale!

 The last, but definitely not least, oil blend that I use it Serenity and like Balance, it does exactly what it's name implies!! This is doTERRA's calming blend and it's one of my favorites, especially when layered with Balance!

I typically apply Serenity in the same spots I've applied the Balance. I like to wait a minute in between oils to give them a chance to soak in individually because I find that, at least for me, this helps the oils to work more effectively! It's a fantastic stress reducer and helps to lower blood pressure.

The Balance and Serenity are also great for anyone (including children) who deals with ADD, ADHD, Autism and/or bi-polar disorders. There are so many different ways these oils can be used and it's amazing the results you see! Don't believe me? Try them..I promise you will thank me!

Essential Oils vs. OTC Medications - A Medicine Cabinet Makeover!

Oh how I love my medicine cabinet makeover!  I think everyone needs one. It's amazing how many medications I've accumulated for all kinds of different ailments. I had Tylenol, Ibuprofen and Aleve for different degrees of headaches, tums for heartburn, pepto for tummy issues, allergy meds...my list goes on and on. What's even worse, I start to think about all of the side effects, short and long term, and it's a little scary to wonder hat kind of damage I've done to my body.

NOT ANYMORE!!!

Now I am not saying to cut all OTC or prescription medications out of your life and only use essential oils from now on because I do believe that sometimes our bodies my need more than what we can give them and I am most definitely not saying to ignore your doctors orders! I am simply sharing information and my experiences to encourage you to really look at your medicine cabinet to see if there are any safer, cheaper, more effective ways to treat yourself. Again, doTERRA does not claim to treat or cure illness, the oils are simply a safe and effective to assist the body in healing itself! 

One of the things I get asked a lot is aren't essential oils more expensive than over the counter medications. In most situations, they aren't. This picture helps to give an idea of the cost comparison using doTERRA CPTG essential oils vs. OTC medication. (The doctor visit cost is assuming you have insurance, without could be several hundreds of dollars)

 



 I LOVE the versatility of essential oils! Unlike OTC medications where you have a limited use for each individual medication, you can use essential oils for so many different things. You can use them on their own, but you can also layer them or mix them together using tried and true recipes. The flu shot in a bottle is one of my most used recipes in my house! Anyone starts to get the sniffles and I have my roller bottle out, rubbing this mix onto the bottoms of their feet. Works wonders for my family!

You've Got Your Oils...Now What?

If you are anything like me, you ordered your oils and then waited impatiently for the mailman to drop them off in within the next couple of days (yes, doTERRA typically ships that quickly) and when they arrive, you rip open the box ready to use everything! You start pulling out your oils and realize that you aren't exactly sure what to do with them. 

There are 3 ways you can you doTERRA essential oils!

 

 

 

 AROMATICALLY- Breathe in, or use a diffuser to kill germs in the air, open airways and/or affect mood, including depression!

INTERNALLY- This method is specific to doTERRA essential oils! You can take them in a gel capsule, under your tongue or in a glass of water to help relieve issues in the digestive tract, mouth & throat, liver and urogenital tract. There are a few oils that should not be ingested so be sure to do your research! 

 

You can read more about taking the oils internally on the doTERRA blog here!

 

TOPICALLY- Apply oils to localized areas, from the bottom of your feet, the oils enter your blood stream within 30 seconds! Apply to head, feet, ears, chest and/or the back of the neck!

 

 

 

 A perfect example of an oil that can be used for all three of these way is the OnGuard! It is my favorite doTERRA oil blend and by far the oil I use the most on my family and in my home! I diffuse OnGuard in my home to kill germs in the air and to provide immune support to myself and my family. I use it to wipe down doorknobs, cupboard handles, the phone, and anything else might get handled a lot.  I also use OnGuard daily in capsules as an added boost to my immune system and if I'm feeling especially punky that day, I might add a drop or two under my tongue to help get rid of any yuckies that might be brewing.  If me or anyone in my family have a cold, sore throat, or other flu symptoms, I'll pull out my OnGuard and massage a drop into the bottoms of each foot to fight them! I LOVE OnGuard!!!

 

 

I recommend that before you use any essential oils, as I mentioned above, do your research!  Make sure you have a general idea of how each oil works so you can get the most benefit from using them. There might be times when you need to use an oil with a carrier oil like olive oil, or fractionated coconut oil because of sensitive skin, or because you are using a "hot" oil like Oregano, Clove, Cinnamon and Thyme so you will definitely want to know what you are working with!
