Have you been hearing about essential oils but you aren't sure how often you would actually use them?
That’s a common question and what you’ll find happen is you begin in one area + then your health upgrading starts to unfold into a lot of other areas.
When you start with the oils - you’ll begin to realize the INTER - CONNECTEDNESS of your whole body and a new way of looking at your health will unfold.
You’ll start to be curious about how much more your skin would glow if it was nourished with products that use the purest essential oils.
And then you’ll start to think that maybe neon urine is not the sign of an effective supplement and maybe you should try the LifeLong vitality pack that you keep hearing about. You’ll start transitioning AWAY from the triclosan filled hand soaps, the aluminum arm pit pollutants, the fluoride filled toothpaste, the hormone altering perfumes and you’ll LOVE the moment you realize that there are more simple, more natural products that work even better than the ones you were spending 3x as much on before.
Well that was my story anyways.
And it’s been the story for a lot of others too.
Essential oils cracked open the whole thing for me. It’s easy to look at this lifestyle and feel like it would be overwhelming ...
but you just start in one little area and let the education and empowerment flood the rest over time.
There are 2 areas that I think are the simplest ones to begin with as they will greatly reduce your exposure to harmful chemicals
in the home, and don’t take a lot of effort.
These 2 areas are:
diffusing:
