As some of you know, my wife and I have jumped into the Essential Oils business. We have found it to be at once a very rewarding experience due to the results that we personally are getting from using the oils and the changes that we see in the friends and family who are using them too.
I would like to ask a favor to the readers of this blog....all 130,000 or so of you. I consider each of you to be my friend. I have in the past years shared many things with you that will make your life, and those of your family much easier if you follow that advice. Now I have the chance to do this at even a greater and more personal level than ever before.
Here is the favor: If any of you have ever considered using these oils, and have put off purchasing them because you think that they are a bunch of "hokum", please, I would ask that you take a few minutes and read-up on the value of using them. That's all!
Some of you may know that I am considered to have a permanent total disability....the lawyerspeak for you can't work any more. I have a difficult time with those words. However, at age 60, and on a limited-fixed income and a wife retiring after 30 years of teaching first graders, we find ourselves in need of extra income. doTerra Essential Oils is one of the ways that we are hoping to cope with that challenge.
Having a fused spine due to a workplace accident has been a difficult thing to endure. Those of you who endure the pain and dysfunction of this curse know exactly what I am talking about. I have taken "pain pills" for so long and at such high doses, that it has damaged my kidneys: Thus I am not able to use regular ibuprofen and other types of medication like this any longer. I have had to use narcotics for the last few years so that I can sleep at night, and to be able to due any work around the house/yard...
UNTIL, my nephew brought over some "Deep Blue" doTerra Essential Oil. He knew that I was struggling with this pain, and he just asked if I would be willing to try it. I said, "Sure I'll give it a try, but I don't hold much faith in it".
What a surprise. My wife applied it to my back that night, and put some Lavender Oil on my feet. To my surprise, instead of laying in bed for a couple of hours trying to get to sleep, I was sleeping within 30 minutes, and woke up the next morning in the same position as I went to sleep in. It was great to be able to wake up refreshed. In the morning however, the pain in my back was about the same. Usually, after sleeping, the pain in standing literally takes my breath away. I was hoping for a miracle I guess, but sometimes those don't come without time and patience.
I usually have to get up and into my reclining chair for about 30 minutes before I am able to do much. But, within a week, even though it still hurts, I can get up without losing my breath, and the time spent in the "chair" is shorter. I don't really expect the miracle of ever being pain free, but it seems over this short time to have been very effective in making it at least more livable.
I've never been fond of snake oil salesmen. I'm never going to be one! But when I find a great product, I am going to share it with you, my friends. This oil works. How it does, I don't really understand fully, but I am living proof that it does.
So, please don't turn me off....keep coming back as both you and I research this together. I truly believe that this product does have a place in your preparedness supplies. I am going to be purchasing more oils, and trying combinations...following their instructions and sharing the results with you.
Please mouse over to the picture of doTerra Living, and connect to my business site, and help both yourselves and my wife and I in this challenge.
BTW, if you would like to purchase the oils wholesale like we do, there is a way. Just contact me at rockymtnsurvival@gmail.com
Thanks to all of you!
