HOME ESSENTIALS PROMO - NOVEMBER 2017.jpg

What Are You Waiting For?

If I could give one piece of advice its to not give a fuck what someone else thinks and be proud of it!

In the absolute most loving and supportive way possible! Treating others with the utmost respect, ethics, trust, love, courtesy, caring but also staying true to YOU!

I lost “ME” a long time ago. So long ago I don’t even truly remember.

Ive been suppressing my burning desire to be more free. Free from past shit, being proud of exactly who I am, embracing my amazing strengths. To be proud to dream and reach for goals.

This past weekend I spent with 42 incredible women and 1 supportive man at our Elite Retreat North!

I went into this weekend freaking terrified, not truly wanting to go and secretly hoping it would be cancelled. (Yes the leaders who ran the retreat know this haha!).

There was something that was completely drawing me in to attend. Although we had just returned home from Convention, I would have to spend more money – on myself – take time away from my kids, husband, work and home… but I said to my husband “I just have this feeling like I HAVE to do this and NEED this.” Without hesitating he said, then you ARE going!

I left there today feeling SO INCREDIBLY EMPOWERED, INSPIRED, PROUD AND RENEW!

I came home a new woman to my family.

I am already feeling the powerful shift. Supporting my kids in the best way I ever have. I am so proud of both of my children. They remind me each and everyday how differences are SO beautiful, its what makes us, US! I need to best support them by being 100% completely their biggest advocate. Each and every single day of their life.

Going through life not caring what anyone else thinks or says!

Same goes for myself and its a daily work in progress. …and thats ok!

The retreat was held at a beautiful camp called the Olympia Sports Camp near Huntsville. This photo was from Saturday morning on the lake.

For far too long I’ve let past experiences, words, people, situations control me. When really they were shaping me into the woman I am. Ive been so focused on what happened to me – both good and bad. I always questioned, why? Why me? Even if it was something wonderful, Awesome… but why me? Or dwelling on negative things that happen. All of this is what has made me into the person I am today.

This weekend pushed me to be vulnerable, to open up and know that it was OK and I would be ok. It was hard – but it was also something I knew deep down Ive needed to do for a VERY long time. Over 20 years of shit building up… and you know what – we are NEVER alone! To be supported, encouraged, lifted up SO high to believe that ANYTHING is possible – because I AM ME!

WHY NOT ME!?

My burning desire in life is to be free – financially, time, bullshit, stuff.

How incredible would it feel to be mortgage free? I WANT THAT!

How amazing would it be to have quality time for myself, together as a couple and a family? I DESERVE THAT! WE DESERVE THAT!!

What better gift could we give our children than time and traveling the world with them?

How spectacular would it feel to always dream and reach for the stars – being truly happy exactly the way I want to live my life in our newly renovated and finished nest! I AM WORTHY OF THAT!

Be true to what I am feeling, how I live, my ethics, beliefs, goals and dreams. The things we have in our home. The people we surround ourselves with. Letting our true selves shine through and being proud of our differences.

Ive been putting so many limitations on myself. Holding myself back.

My life has been transforming over the past 1.5 years and it feels SO freeing. This weekend was so cleansing, revealing and inspiring to be the BEST me no matter what, who, when or where!

Our lifestyle now is incredibly different than it was 1 year ago, 2 years ago, 5 years ago and well over 10 years! Hell even 3 days ago. I AM PROUD OF THAT.

Its what makes me, what makes my husband, what makes our kids and what makes our family. But it starts with ME! If I don’t believe it, someone could tell me all day long and it wouldn’t truly have an effect.

I am proud …

to be a beautiful red headed woman
to be a wife to my best friend
to be a mom of two amazing kids
to be an ADHD Mom
of differences
to be a PCOS Woman
to have control of my hypothyroidism in a way that works best for me – naturally!
to be a wellness advocate educating on living a healthier life with essential oils
to be a part of our family history working in our family business
to be a lifestyle photographer
to be leading other women and their families all over the world in living a healthier life with essential oils
to dream for exactly what I want in life
to be an artist
of my past because its brought me to where I am today
that I can forgive
that I am strong
that I am open to receive
that it’s ok to ask for help
to admit Ive been depressed
that I have an incredibly big, warm caring heart
that I want the best for everyone
that I push myself to be better each and every single day
that I am empowering my children
that I am going to have a strong Diamond doTERRA team and family
to be vulnerable and open
to fall into the passion deep within me
to love myself and my family every single day
to be reaching my goal of being financially free
to know that as a woman I can do whatever sets my heart on fire
to use my oils everyday to support my physical and emotional health
to be a survivor and strong
to want to help other women be empowered
to value true friendship
to love evenings home together
of the power of forgiveness
that Im not letting past betrayal, lies and deceit control me
to know that their actions are them – not me
of my past thats made me who I am today
that I can heal
that I am a kick ass woman worthy of her wildest dreams

To all of the women who shared their time with me this weekend – THANK YOU! I value your own dedication, commitment, vulnerability, openness, fun, laughter – zero judgment!

It’s funny the things that make you giddy excited when you are an adult ;)

All summer we’ve been looking at various couches, pricing, fabric, location, layout etc. After the flood we had not just one sectional to replace, we had two.

Long story short, when we began the basement renos (the first time), we got rid of our old furniture upstairs and moved the basement furniture up. While working on the basement we bought a beautiful sectional (for downstairs) so got rid of the old basement furniture with plans of the sectional moving down and getting something new for upstairs when the upstairs reno was complete. When the basement was finished the couch moved down and we began going to work upstairs. Then the basement flooded and we were left with … a chair and small loveseat.

A couple weeks we both agreed on a couch and chair we both liked. With our to-do list in mind, we also agreed to just let it go and when the time was right the universe would tell us. I literally said this to my husband only a 1-2 night’s before.

On Friday morning I was working away and it hit me… go check out Grey’s – the third time is the charm!

You see we lucked out finding a beautiful sectional couch for our basement the first time I went about a month and a half ago. It is almost identical to the one I had been picturing in my mind that I wanted AND what we had legit been looking at and were going to buy only 3 days later ;)

Two weeks later I had a similar feeling to go check it out… found our two chairs for the bay window in the dining room. I knew I wanted 2 matching chairs that were stylish AND comfortable but would also not block our view! Total score – We all love them!

Last friday, I knew something special was there. 💞

They are almost identical to what we had picked out just last week! Local, amazing price and we could pick up the same day! Bonus… they are super comfy!

I fell asleep on that couch recliner Friday night. Having living room furniture again feels really good for the soul!

Thank you universe! The timing was impeccable!

Do you or someone you love have ADHD?

If you or someone you love has ADHD this campaign will be of interest to you! Take a few moments to check out their anonymous survey in the link below!

This October, during ADHD Awareness Month, CADDAC is launching our “ADHD in Education Awareness/Advocacy Campaign” to draw greater attention to the inequities students with ADHD face when accessing education across Canada.

Over the years CADDAC has spent a great deal of time with parents across Canada discussing their frustrations and concerns about this issue. Many parents complain that educators lack an understanding of ADHD, that many school systems and ministries of education do not recognize ADHD as a significant impairment to learning and that their children are not receiving equitable access to education. At the same time we have also heard stories about the positive difference a teacher or principal can make in a child’s life when they truly understand the impact ADHD has on a child’s learning and behaviour.

Do you or someone you love have PCOS or Endometriosis?

Do you have PCOS and/or Endometrosis?

I do and my life has been affected by all they mention below.

Consider taking 10-15 To complete this anonymous survey (link below). The emotional and physical challenges associated with these invisible illnesses are very real and affect every part of a woman’s life as an individual, partner and parent. I truly wish there was proper education and support when I was first diagnosed, I’m confident it wouldn’t have been as difficult as it was on me and just about about every single aspect and relationship in my life. 13 years later and I finally feel like I am healing properly. Thankful I followed my heart!

–Study Info Below Shared With Permission–

Associate Professor Kerry O’Brien, Dr. RoseAnne Misajon & Ms. Georgia Rush at Monash University are conducting research.

Positive Sunday Morning Vibes

I love those mornings when I start my day awake and laying still in my bed. Enjoying a tea brought to me by my daughter then making my way to the kitchen.

The gorgeous morning light flooding the kitchen from the new window. Sitting in the warm sunshine in our front window listening to a morning grateful meditation.

Our new Yoga oils in the diffuser – Arise and Align 2 drops each.

Hubby in the kitchen making bacon, eggs with hollandaise sauce for a wonderful brunch.

The day started slow, with our family and down to earth. Grounding me where I need to be and refocus on the priorities ahead for the week. Checking things off the to-do list – with every thing accomplished it brings us a closer to our goals.

How do you like to start your week?

Copaiba Essential Oil | doTERRA

Copaiba essential oil is derived from the resin of the copaiba tree which can grow upwards of more than 100 feet and can be found in tropical South America. Copaiba oil is widely used in cosmetic products including soaps, creams, lotions, and perfumes. Since the 16th century, copaiba essential oil has been utilized in traditional health practices by the natives of north and northeastern Brazil. Similar to Black Pepper essential oil, Copaiba can help soothe anxious feelings and it can be applied to the skin to promote a clear, smooth complexion. Taken internally, Copaiba essential oil supports the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, nervous, and respiratory systems.* Although Copaiba does not contain cannabinoids, the main component caryophyllene may be neuroprotective and have cardiovascular and immune benefits.* It’s also a powerful antioxidant that promotes immune health.*

Application:
Aromatic, Topical, Internal
Plant Part:
Resin from Copaifera reticulata, officinalis, coriacea, and langsdorffii
Extraction Method:
Steam distillation
Aromatic Description:
Spicy, woody
Main Chemical Component:
Caryophyllene

Benefits of Copaiba Essential Oil:

• Supports the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive and respiratory systems*
• Powerful antioxidant*
• Helps calm, soothe, and support the nervous system*
• Promotes clear, smooth skin and reduces the appearance of blemishes

Here are some ways you can use Copaiba essential oil:

• Add 1 to 2 drops to water, juice, or tea to support the health of the cardiovascular, immune, digestive, nervous, and respiratory system.*
• Provides antioxidant support when ingested.*
• Take internally to help soothe and calm the nervous system.*
• Apply topically to help keep skin clean and clear, and to help reduce the appearance of blemishes.

Copaiba Essential Oil – Science

https://www.doterra.com/US/en/blog/science-research-news-copaiba-essential-oil

Copaiba essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the resin collected from Copaifera officinalis, a tree native to Central and South America. It has been described as having a spicy, woody aroma. The primary chemical constituent of Copaiba essential oil is caryophyllene, a bicyclic sesquiterpene that is also found in Black Pepper. While caryophyllene is responsible for some of the bioactive properties of Copaiba, many other properties of the oil are attributed to diterpenes uniquely found in Copaiba.¹
For centuries, South Americans have used copaiba resin to promote the health of the respiratory, digestive, urinary, cardiovascular, and immune systems. As reported by the first European settlers of Central and South America, the indigenous American Indians utilized the soothing properties of copaiba oil-resin by applying it both to their newborns and to warriors coming home from battle.¹ Current research offers an explanation for the traditional use of Copaiba oil, suggesting that Copaiba essential oil is calming, soothing, and supportive to the skin and nervous system.*^6,10,16-22
Recent research on caryophyllene suggests a number of other means by which Copaiba essential oil can support overall health. When taken internally, caryophyllene possesses strong antioxidant properties,² promotes healthy cellular function,^2-4 may help support immune function while supporting overall circulatory health,^5-9 and may help support the health of the gastrointestinal tract and colon.*¹¹
Additional research has shown that Copaiba essential oil (with all its constituents) may help keep the mouth, teeth, and gums clean and healthy looking.^12,15,23-25 Topically applied Copaiba oil may also help keep the skin clean and clear while helping to reduce the appearance of blemishes.^{1,13,14,16,27-33} Another interesting experimental research study found that Copaiba taken internally may help to support uterine health and ease menstruation.*²⁶

As a natural substance that can support the health of a number of body systems, Copaiba makes a wonderful addition to the doTERRA collection of essential oils.
