Slim and Sassy Essential Oil:

Speeds up your Metabolism
Powerfully suppresses your appetite
Helps your body cleanse out harmful toxins
Lifts and elevates your mood

This blend contains 5 natural essential oils -
Cinnamon - improves liver function, inhibits new fat cells from forming, reduces diabetic risk, helps with serum lipid balance

Ginger - stimulates loss through lipolysis (fat burning), calms the stomach

Peppermint - enhances a sense of fullness, reduces cravings and appetite, energizes the body

Grapefruit - helps reduce appetite, induces lipolysis (fat burning), helps disolve petrochemicals in the body

Lemon - helps reduce appetite, induce lipolysis (fat burning), helps dissolve petrochemicals in the body

I put 8 drops in 16 oz of water and sip throught the day.  Others put 6 -10 drops in a capsule and take one capsule 3x a day.  Whichever works best with your body and your busy schedule!  I have had thyroid problems so I know what it's like to work super hard and see no results.  Now that I've got everything in control it's nice to have a natural supplement to help boost my healthy eating and exercise efforts into actual weight loss!

Anxiety - Panic - Depression

Life is hard - but it can be managed.  Sometimes we need a little help though to get through - sometime we need a lot.  

For Anxiety or Panic the oils used by many are similar - Lavender, Orange, Lemon, Serenity, Aroma Touch, Elevation, Balance, Breathe.  Those are the top choices most use.  So there are plenty to choose from so that you can find the 'right' one for you.

For depression - Lemon, Frankincense, Lavender, Bergamot, Elevation, Balance, Citrus Bliss

As you can see the Lavender, Lemon, Elevation, and Balance are listed for all of them.  So if you suffer like most with both depression and anxiety you still have several choices.

Fibromyalgia - only read if you want your life back : )

 

Fybromyalgia is one of many that are ultimately traced back to poor nutrition and inflammation ie. candida being a major culprit. If you can correct the nutrition, reduce stress and control the candida the problem should correct over time. There is no overnight fix but changes should occur with in 90 days. It may take 12 months to feel like a new person.

I recommend lots of whole fresh foods and as much organic low fat (ie. greens not avocados) raw foods as possible.

Life Long Wellness pack
GX and PB assist monthly
Daily use of oils like Lavender (or other calming oils) and citrus oils such as grapefruit in a capsule or under the tongue.

And of course last but not least some form of aerobic exercise as simple as walking or stationary rowing, biking and walking machines.

Why Essential Oils? Why doTERRA?

Essential oils are like mother natures medicine cabinet.  They are 70x more powerful than herbal medicines (dried herbs).  For example one drop of peppermint is as powerful as 28 cups of peppermint tea.  If you have an upset tummy and you are using peppermint for relief, one drop is easier to stomach than 28 cups.

Hundreds of ailment can be remidied with essential oils - right from home with no doctor visit.  Everything from colds to weight, anxiety to morning sickness.  Many oils have multiple uses!

The other day I got a steam burn while cooking I used Lavender and it took the pain away.  And today I had a painful hangnail that was turning red with infection again a drop of Lavender took the pain away and it's not red like it was this morning.  I know a family who uses Serenity to calm ADHD and another who uses Serenity for stress and anxiety. I know a family that uses clove and lemongrass to not only stop taking thyroid medicine for hypothyroidism but has tested in the normal range after stopping the meds and just using the oils. I know of a family who had a young girl having 6-8 seizures a day that no modern medicine was helping - they started her on Frankincense and the seizures have lessened to 1 or a week.  The stories are endless. 

Why do I trust doTERRA Essential Oils?

Check out the video, it will tell you better than I can why I trust them.

 And why I will gladly give up most of our doctors visits for peace of mind.

Breathe - does exactly what it says; good for those who suffer from Asthma Attacks

I rub breathe on the bottom of my kids or my husbands feet at night to help improve their breathing.  Especially when a head cold is coming on.  It helps them breathe through the night and clears the stuffiness.  As an added benefit the nights my husband uses it he doesn't snore.  His snoring wasn't load and obnoxious, but at times I would have to ask him to roll over.  I no longer have to do this.

Asthma Attacks, triggered by any number of things, also see an improvement when using Breathe.  Rub Breathe on your hands put it under the nose and inhale as best as you can.  You can also diffuse it into the air.  Also rub it on the chest, throat, or back for relief.

Laurel Leaf (Bay)- Helps with asthma, bronchitis, and viral infections.

Peppermint - This oil is antiseptic, antispasmodic, and anti-inflammatory. It is soothing, cooling, and dilating to the system.

Lavender - calming and sedative properties. It also helps lift feelings of depression and anxiety.
 *note - those that know me well know that I'm not one to nap.  I have to be at my wits end a walking Zombie to be able to lay down and actually nap - otherwise I lay there thinking of all things I should be up doing.  The other day I was chilled to the bone and no amount of layers was helping so I thought I'd take a bath and put 3 drops of lavender in the water.  I love the smell of lavender and didn't really think about the properties it had.  When I got out I cleaned up my room and then sat on my bed to work on a chapter of a book.  I didn't get to far before I realized I was tired, my schedule this month is on the hectic side - and 2 hours later I woke up refreshed and ready to hit the day again.
Sweet Marjoram - helps to relax, calm and promote peace.
Roman Chamomile - is calming and relaxing. Helps relieve muscle tension as well as calm nerves and sooth emotions
