You may be thinking that this whole new essential oils craze is pretty wacky. You may think it's like some sort of hocus pocus medicine. Well I am here to assure you that it is not. Sure, you may be skeptical and so was my family at first. However, it really bothers me to have someone criticize the oils or make fun of them when they haven't even tried them. That is like telling someone you hate broccoli when you have never tried it before, so how would you know? I would say before you judge, give them a try for yourself. They may just work and blow you away. That's what it did for my family. Before I get in to that, let me tell you what essential oils are.
Essential oils are simply the purest oils from a plant with natural healing properties, and they bring your body down to the cellular level it needs to heal naturally. Most medicine actually has derivatives from these plants, but they produce them synthetically and add all kinds of fillers which can cause side effects. You can't be allergic to essential oils, because they are the purest form of the oil. They are also very powerful and most times you only need 1-2 drops. Some oils are also safe to use on kids, babies, and pets. You just have to dilute them more for kids and babies. You can use a carrier oil like olive oil or coconut oil to dilute them. It was actually God's plan was for us to use the plants for medicine. Ezekiel 47:12 states "Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine." So no, essential oils are not weird. They are like God's gift to us that comes naturally from the earth, so why wouldn't you want to use it? Unless of course you think natural remedies are weird, then you can just stop reading now. Oils have been used for a long time. They were even brought to the baby Jesus by the wisemen. If you want to know more about the oils, go to http://www.doterra.com/us/essentialDefinition.php
You may still be skeptical and my family was too at first. However, we tried them and they worked so that spoke for itself. My mom got really sick this past Christmas. She was battling sinus infections, strep, etc. She kept going to the doctor and the medicine they prescribed wasn't working. In fact, the medicine she took gave her a yeast infection in her mouth. Yuck! Then a precious lady from our church heard about my mom and brought us the oils to try. My mom actually slept for a while that night and we called the lady back to ask her to bring more oils. She met with my mom and my step-dad. Seeing the change it made in my mom sold us on the oils and we decided to buy some ourselves. My mom was finally able to get better using the oils. Since then, we have all seen the power of the oils and what they can do to help our bodies heal naturally. We have foster kids and when they came to us, they had all kind of health problems. We started using the oils on them and they got better within a week. One of the kids has had the hardest battle with lice and we have been able to get rid of them and protect ourselves from getting them by using the essential oils. It's so much better than putting chemicals in the hair. That's just my family's story about using the oils. I am sure we will have more testimonials as we continue to use them over time.
