FRANKINCENSE OIL AND MY HUBBY'S SEIZURE.






I have used essential oils for many years and always knew that Frankincense oil had a lot of health benefits. We are never without it, but after last weekend I will have a bottle on our bedside table at all times.

My hubby has nocturnal seizures (which means he only has them when he sleeps). He was having a nana nap on the lounge Saturday afternoon when he suddenly started having a seizure. Luckily I was in the lounge room at the time and was right there with him to roll him onto his side and make sure his airways were clear.

The seizure was going on for longer than normal when I suddenly remembered reading about Frankincense and seizures. I propped hubby against my leg so that he was still on his side, reached over to my oil box on the coffee table (thank goodness I keep them in alphabetical order and could spot that red sticker on the lid in seconds ☺). I took the lid off and waved it under his nose. Within 5 seconds the seizure was over. Thank goodness!

I was saying to my friend, later that day, that I am getting more experienced with what to do during his seizures, but the fear never gets any easier. At least, now I will feel more confident knowing I have this oil. Frankincense is extra special to me now.

It's experiences like this that made me become a proud doTERRA Wellness Advocate.

doTERRA Purify Oil. Where do I start? This one bottle of oil can do so much. Surely I'm not the only person who has put a load of washing on and forgotten about it until hours later, or the next morning even. I would wash the clothes again but they still had a stale smell when we wore them. Now I just put 1 or 2 drops of Purify on a cloth and throw it in the wash. The clothes come out smelling fresh and nobody knows the difference. (See below for blog on essential oils and plastic as mentioned in the video) We love our cats, but I really don't like the kitten stage when they pee on things and nothing gets rid of the smell. We have a suede lounge chair that I was ready to take to the dump because I could not get rid of the smell out of it. I tried everything. I would think it was good and then as soon as we had a bit of humid weather, the smell would return. Then I made up a spray bottle of equal parts white vinegar and filtered water, added 20 drops of doTERRA

Natural Cat Scratch Deterrent

Image
Time and time again my essential oils amaze me. But using them to deter the cats from clawing our suede lounge takes the cake. W e have to chase them away from the lounge every day. We hear that dreaded clawing sound and run to chase them before they do permanent damage. I came across a recipe last week and tried it. It did make the cats stop and sniff around, but they still ended up clawing the lounge. I tried a new blend each day until I finally found this one that has stopped them clawing altogether. I put approximately 1 cup of water,  10 drops of doTERRA Eucalyptus Oil and 10 drops of doTERRA Lemon Oil in a spray bottle, shook it up and sprayed it on the corners of the lounge where the cats claw every day. The first day they came up and sniffed around, but then walked away. I haven't seen them near the lounge at all since then. This seemed too good to be true, but it's been 4 days and they still haven't been near the lounge. I'm going to spray it every

WHERE TO GET YOUR doTERRA RESOURCES

Image
So you have your oils, now you need to get some tools and resources together. In this blog, I will tell you where I purchase all of my sample bottles, reference books, sachets, stickers, which phone apps I use and other tools I have found to be useful. Obviously, you don't need everything that I talk about on this blog, but if you do want them, you will know where to get them from. The very first thing anyone who uses essential oils should purchase, in my opinion, is a reference book. If you are on my team I have more than likely sent you one in your Welcome Pack.  I recommend either The Essential Life Book or Modern Essentials. You don't need both, as they are both excellent books, but are very similar. I am a visual person and The Essential Life book is just so much prettier to me. The Modern Essentials book is more like a text book. The other book I recommend and use every single day is the Emotions & Essential Oils book. I love the emotions side of ess
