Healthcare Starts At Home

Our kids have been my biggest push, in so many ways.

The most memorable has been for my health. I was reminded of this tonight when I had holistic treatment requests from both of them.

What originally was trying to figure out how to cook the chicken for dinner, it shifted into a holistic treatment evening for our whole family. As I was going through my treatments I couldn’t help but think of absolute pure gratitude for our kids.

I was also reminded how easy it can be to put our own needs, last. I had been saying for weeks we need to do an oil and energy treatment night. Truthfully oils were a routine with them every single night. We had a bedtime routine with various oils that we applied to their feet or back. Tonight, when our son spoke up and asked I happily agreed and shifted from in the kitchen with Pam to Oil Reiki Master Pam.

Although they all didn’t get complete Reiki treatments and also the oil treatment, I love to combine them. Everyone is unique and I believe the treatment should be, for them, as well!

  • Frankincense – Truth
  • Oregano- Humility and Non Attachment
  • Thyme – Releasing and Forgiving
  • On Guard – Protection
  • Aroma Touch – Relaxation
  • Lemongrass – Cleansing
  • Tea Tree – Energetic Boundaries
  • Arborvitae – Divine Grace
  • Peppermint – Buoyant Heart

I am also excited to share with them another holistic treatment we have enjoyed!!!

Healthcare truly does start at home, this I now know without a doubt. I am grateful for our life shift in 2014, when I finally dedicated to me. I truly had no idea the profound change it would have, on not just me! Life doesn’t make sense all of the time, however after there seems to be a new understanding or questioning, to look beyond. The past 18 months has also shown us this.

True healthcare begins within our heart, soul and physical body within our own living space. As we learn, navigate life within this space and body, we can better understand, explore and grow in the outside world. This experience is what also is challenging, at times when foods and drinks are involved.

Alas, I do this for ME, I do this for them (kids and husband). BUT it is 100% first always for ME – just as this should be for anyone. To be able to honor our kids requests, to lean in completely, truly warms my heart.

I’ve learned so much from being a parent, as much as we are raising them, they are also raising us, as parents in a sense.

For me, now, healthcare is understanding WHY something is happening vs stopping it. This is a beautiful shift considering I used to regularly consume the A tablets pretty much daily.

Healthcare is listening to my body, releasing the ignorance and embracing Bliss.

Healthcare is choosing to understand, vs numbing to forget.

Healthcare is valuing movement, Empowerment and honoring my heart.
