Every time someone in your house gets sick, you already know you’re next.You eat well, you take vitamin C, you wash your hands… and yet, somehow, it finds you. Here’s the truth: getting sick all the time isn’t bad luck — it’s feedback.Your immune system isn’t broken, it’s overworked and under-supported. Things like poor sleep, constant stress, and nutrient gaps quietly chip away at your…
Let’s talk about something most women don’t realize during perimenopause and menopause:your liver and your hormones are best friends. When that relationship gets strained — say your liver is a little sluggish — estrogen starts hanging around longer than it should. And that’s when things start to feel off.

We’ve been conditioned to believe there’s a sick season. That every winter, it’s “normal” for kids to bring home every bug from school, for parents to miss work, for sleep to be lost, and for energy (and patience) to run dry. Modern healthcare has trained us to accept that our only options are: That’s the cycle most families live in year after year. But here’s…

I’ve been learning more about the connection…
When I started using essential oils, I was most impressed with the power Peppermint and the Easy Air blend (respiratory blend that contains Peppermint and Eucalyptus and other oils) had on opening airways. I had been suffering from congestion due to allergies for 20 years…and always only partially breathed through my nose at best. In a few seconds after using the peppermint oil on the…
A customer of mine suffers from sores that develop in her mouth that typically last about two weeks. She used frankincense and gargled (only once!) and it was almost all gone the next day. She thought of using it because I said it had amazing restorative properties! These kind of stories are what prompted me to do a lot of research on essential oils and…
Have you heard of digestive enzymes? doTERRA has one called Terrazyme. Fresh, raw foods naturally contain sufficient enzymes for proper digestion in the body. However, when food is cooked and processed, these naturally occurring food enzymes can be destroyed. The pasteurization, sterilization, radiation, preservation, freezing, and microwaving of our modern food supply can render food enzymes inactive or alter their structure so much that they…
