My friends Judy and Pam were sharing how they used essential oils for headaches and pain, to sleep and feel better. It made me think of a book I read that explained how various plants, roots and herbs could be used to treat various ailments. Then my dad died of liver cancer and my brother in law got colon cancer. I really started to think about how the medicines I take can both help and hurt me. Now I was ready to here more about natural ways do things.

My sister and her husband decided to use both traditional and holistic methods to treat his cancer. That is were she learned about the benefits of essential oils. Her main goal was to help her husband heal. As she learned about the oils from Young Living, she started using them too. After taking all sorts of over the counter medications and prescriptions for sleep, she decided to try the essential oils and they worked for her.

At a family gathering, my daughter in law had a bad headache and my sister rubbed some peppermint on her and the headache really improved. My daughter in law wanted to know more and so did I so my sister arranged an Essential Oil Party. We learned a lot of things and enjoyed a great lunch too. The water with lemon oil was really good and I was hooked.
