I have thought about trying a more holistic form of medicine for quite some time but never really knew where I would begin. It is kind of funny how opportunities come knocking which jumpstart your dreams into realities. Anyway, about a month ago I decided to give essential oils a try as I have heard many good things about them...insert doTerra. My mom has a friend who uses them and gave use some information about their many many uses. We ordered some and have been using them religiously for just over a month. They are simply divine and have helped me to get off my anxiety meds which is a huge plus in my life. The meds have horrible side effects that I am not so sure are worth the one issue they seem to fix. The oils are helping and leave no negative side effects to worry about later...bonus! I am having a blast using them and trying different combinations to solve different problems. I am even going to start using them to make my own cleaning supplies and what not so I am not putting toxic chemicals in the air and on my skin.
In addition to the oils, I just today tried acupuncture for the first time and was very impressed. I have been to a chiropractor many times and have seen the effects that has on your overall well being, but never have I used acupuncture. Well, I found a chiropractor who also uses acupuncture for certain issues. I have a few more treatments in the next couple of weeks and am feeling very hopeful that my headaches will be gone! And, this also helps with the anxiety without the added nasty side effects of modern medication. I think those ancient Chinese were on to something with these amazing healing ideas!

Your blog looks so cute! Nice update there, and I know i've said this to you before, but I too LOVE doTERRA. Funny how we both found it at the same time.
