I admit I'm a bit of a purse snob. I love leather purses. Good ones.  I saw how successful a sharing bag was for promoting essential oils. So I set out looking for something that I liked but still had a clear pocket to carry the oils and maybe another for a promotional page, or business cards. I didn't find much.  My biggest hang up was most bags were completely clear. I really don't want all the contents of my purse visible!  This is my solution for now.  This bag came from Amazon I also ordered a large black purse organizer to keep things like my wallet, and feminine products hidden.  (Please excuse the messy house in the background, and look and the lovely poinsettias my hubby got me.) this is the front with 15 ml bottles in the pocket side pocket with my business cards interior with purse organizer  back before promo info    Here are a few ideas for promo info for the back of th...

Be Kind. I know I am not a super model. I simply don't know of a better way to explain the massage than to show you.  So here it is.  What's the big deal? For me it is an overall smooth youthful appearance. I'm less puffy and my skin seems brighter and tighter. But the biggest thing I have noticed is how it helps with the stiffness I would feel in the back of my neck and along my clavicle. When I feel congested or the beginning of a sinus headache this really helps too!  More info below the video. Remember be gentle! We want to reduce fine lines and heavy handed pulling will be counterproductive. :)  I'm using the Aroma Life blend from Young Living.  I put it in a little roller bottle to make it easier to apply.  This is a great blend to use for any lymphatic massage you may want to try. I have used it to support my lymph system when I had some swelling in my ankles too! Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens), marjoram (Origanum majorana)...

We have been on a journey to wellness for some years now. It isn't  a quick fix but a lifetime of effort!  These are supplements we use nearly every day in our house.                   Supplements used by the Headache Kid : When my son had a serious reaction to his pain medication ( the first one that actually helped ) we decided to all we could naturally to improve his life. I have written in the past about changing our family diet and seeing great improvement. This is part 2 of that effort. The first thing we did was add MSM. I already had Sulfurzyme which had been beneficial for my own health. He takes one capsule 3 times a day. Some days he takes more if he is really struggling with inflammation.  I had read so many articles about omega 3 and brain health. Then found out boys often need more omega 3 as well. It has to do with testosterone not being a fat carrier and estrogen is.  Here is one...

This soap is natural, and can be easily modified for your skin type. It is also very inexpensive! I bought an inexpensive foaming soap dispenser, but you could just reuse and empty one. Fill it 3/4 full with water. I chose to use two castile soaps together in my recipe. They are both wonderful for the skin and smell great.  These are Dr. Woods Black Soap, and Dr. Bonners Hemp Rose Soap.  I added enough to fill the container but leave some room for the dispenser to fit in without over flowing. For my dispenser it was about 6 oz of water and 1.5 oz of soap.   A rule of thumb is 5 to one water to soap in a foaming dispenser.  You can see it got cloudy once the soap was in. If you do the water then the soap it doesn't over flow with suds! Now you add the oils of your choice. I added 15 drops of orange oil.  The soap will settle a little so shake it up before using.  If you have acne prone skin use tea tree, or Purification blend ...

I quit buying face cream a year ago. I never spent much on make up but I did invest in all kinds of anti-wrinkle, stop aging type creams.   Once I began paying attention to what was in those products I decided to make my own. I am still using the same jar nearly 11 months later and its 1/3 full. Over the year I have saved hundreds of dollars from using my little cream. Here is the basic recipe.   There are so many essential oils that are good for our skin. Some I didn't include are bergamot, clary sage, lavender, and sandalwood.  Carrier oil options are abundant! I only listed a few of the easiest to access.
