I Will Praise Him in the Storm

I will praise Him in the storm. The storm front is on my door step lately.  Our house is peaceful, full of love, and kindness and true safe place in this crazy world. But the storm still rages.  

 Unfortunately, when the weather changes, like a cold front moving through, my son's headaches are barely manageable.  Fall is on the way, we have had a few weather fronts move through and the pain level for my kiddo has been high and difficult. 

 We had been enjoying a day or two at a time of almost no pain, but now we are thankful for an hour or two with manageable pain.  I know the pain storm will pass, but it is hard to listen to it rage not know how long or intense it will be. 

 One thing we do is list things we are thankful for, a way to distract from the pain and feel hope in our hearts.  A hard Eucharisteo as Ann Voscamp, author of "1000 Gifts" calls it.

 My son will list his friends, toys, comic books, puppy, and so on.  Things that give him joy, and can even make him smile. 

 This is my Thankful Tuesday list:
1. When pain is highest, God is greatest

2. When my mommy heart is stretched tight, my Father's heart loves me tender

3. When I sit in the shadow of hurt, it is easiest to see the direction of the Son

Raindrop Roller

Most of us who have been with Young Living know the amazing benefits of the Raindrop Technique for overall wellness and immune system support.  There is great training available to learn the technique and many videos too.  But in a pinch, this roller is a great item to have in your oily toolkit to keep your family above the wellness line.  Since we have one child with a rare disease who cannot have over the counter meds, this is our only defense. When anyone starts to dip down into illness. This roller comes out. We roll it down our spine and on the bottoms of our feet. I repeat at least 3 times a day. Usually, it only takes a day or two to be back into wellness!

Thyroid Support & Young Living

Image
I did a post for my private Facebook group recently on Thyroid support. That little thyroid sure does affect every part of our bodies! I personally have Hashimoto Thyroiditis. I was diagnosed over 10 years ago. It is hereditary for me and we have many generations with hypothyroidism on my mother's side of the family.  There are many supplements that support the thyroid, but I am going to highlight my personal top 4. 1)Endoflex - supports the entire endocrine system. Apply over the thyroid, adrenal glands, kidneys, liver, vitaflex on feet, can be ingested and diffused. I apply to my thyroid and adrenals (kidney area on my back) morning and night.  2)Sulfurzyme - this is a capsule, I take 1-2 in the morning and night. This supports the entire body, helps the immune system, and joints (includi ng my back!)  3)Thyromin - Another capsule, I take two at night. Developed by Gary Young who no longer has a thyroid. This does not force thyroid to certain leve...

Purification spray to keep the odors away!

Image
I made Purification spray today! It is just the right thing for sneakers, teen boy rooms, refreshing throw pillows, stale rooms and so much more! Here is how to make your own. Put 1 tsp baking soda in your bottle then fill nearly full with hot water from the tap. Put on the top and shake to dissolve the baking soda. Open back up and put in 10-20 drops of purification and shake again. My bottle was 4 oz so 15 drops was just right. I have made other room sprays with this same technique and different oils. Here is where I got my great bottles! Blue Spray Bottle
