Essential Oils

A long time ago, Carol Galanty, a certified health counselor and incredible holistic chef, introduced me to DoTerra essential oils. Did you know that they are absorbed into the blood stream within 20 minutes? These are plants and herbs with incredible natural healing powers, that can also help support thyroid function. I have gotten into the habit of taking 2-3 drops and massaging my neck before bedtime. The smell is so relaxing … really, a bit of aromatherapy that sets the tone for relaxation.

The key is to buy very high quality oils. DoTerra seem to be the highest quality, purest product on the market.

Essential oils come from roots, flowers, seeds, bark, or other areas of the plant. These are extraced and carefully distilled. Attention is placed on harvesting methods, temperature, time of distillation and amount of pressure used. It’s a like creating a very good wine. You need first-class soil and vines, the right climate and weather conditions, and a great vintner and proper equipment.

You can open a wholesale account on the DoTerra website for $35/£20 and get 25% off all orders. They ship around the world.

This thyroid support recipe was recommended to me by Carol.

    I’m so glad that you are enjoying the essential oils blend that I recommended to you for thyroid support. The oils are truly amazing at helping to bring your body back to a state of balance and well being. They have been a part of my daily routine for the past 7 years and I only wish that I had discovered them sooner. Each of those oils in that blend have a multitude of other applications as well, making them a versatile tool to include in anyone’s wellness regime. Frankincense for example is a calming oil to diffuse at night to help you sleep better, and combines well with Lavender or Cedarwood. It’s also wonderful for your skin–for fine lines, sun spots and acne, plus it is a go to for mood improvement and combating inflammation in the body. I’m happy to make other suggestions for you for essential oils usage and would love to offer your readers a complimentary phone consultation if they need assistance deciding which oils are best for their individual needs.
