Massage the Winter Away


Massage therapy- the practice of soft tissue manipulation for physical, mental, and emotional purposes-offers a variety of benefits to help you embrace the coming of spring with renewed vitality.
Raindrop Technique is a type of massage that integrates Young Living essential oils with the benefits of Vitaflex and massage. This technique was developed by Gary Young founder and president of Young Living, and Lakota a medicine man named Wallace Black Elk. Raindrop is a powerful, non-invasive tool for alleviating physical discomfort and realigning the body, mind and emotions. As an Infant/Care Specialist with assignments for 2-3 months 24/7 working with newborn infants  I saw its immediate and lasting results. The Raindrop Technique utilizes thyme, oregano, wintergreen, cypress, peppermint, basil, and majoram, along with Valor, Aroma Siez," V-6 Enhances Vegetable Oil Complex, and Ortho Ease" to bring the body and mind into alignment.  These oils are known for their ability to support the immune system and other body systems. Their high antioxidant properties elevate the mood and foster an environment of physical and emotional relaxation.

Thought for today:
This insight of the grateful heart is a dynamic key to pesonal prosperity.
It is cosmic ideal that has been caught and taught by mystic teachers of all ages.  Perhaps no one has articulated it better than Plato, who said "A grateful mind is a great mind which eventually attracts to itself great things." A tremendous insight! The grateful person is great because he or she has turned on all the lights within.  You may say of someone, "He has so much, and he is so grateful." But by Plato's law, it may be that he has so much because he is so grateful.  The grateful heart actually opens the way to the flow and becomes an attractive force to draw to itself great things.

Peppermint Oil

Peppermint has a strong, clean, fresh, minty aroma.  One of the oldest and most highly regarded herbs for soothing digestion. Research shows the inhalation of peppermint oil helps trigger a sense of fullness after meals, enhances your sense of taste and smell, and improves concentration and mental activity. After a long day a bath with peppermint oil works wonders for my body  I combine 10 drops of peppemint oil to 1 cup of sea salt  mix it up and add two tablespoons to a hot bath. It also makes an excellent foot scrub. Another great tip, combine peppermint oil with lavender oil, for a smoothing and invigorating body, neck and foot massage  Peppermint oil can also be applied over the stomach to soothe minor digestive discomfort.
Thought for the day:
Not every one of our dreams can be immediately gratified. We have got to learn to wait patiently for our dreams to come true, especially on the path we've chosen.  But while we wait, we need to prepare symbolically a place for
our hopes and dreams.

Peace & Calming Essential Oils



Unwind after a long day with the gentle pleasant scent of Peace & Calming. This soothing essential oil is a blend of tangerine,ylang ylang, blue tansy, orange, and pactchoul. Its claming blend promotes deep relaxation eases tension and supports a meditative state. It is specifically designed for diffusing: dispensing oil in a micro-fine vapor into the air. I diffuse right  before bedtime for a peaceful night's sleep. This blend also relaxes overactive, restless children by rubbing a few drops on the botton of their feet or in a warm bath to soothe fussy babies. Another useful tip is to add several drops into a spray bottle and lightly mist linens and bed pillows to aid a peaceful sleep.
