Well, I let myself get run down...I know, practice what you preach. I look at these times as blessings because I am reminded how important it is to practice wellness in all areas of my life. Anyway, I didn't get much sleep the last couple weeks, I wasn't very attentive to my water intake or eating balanced meals and I also let my self get lazy with my daily essential oil routine. Well.....I came down with a slight fever and body aches in the middle of the night on Tues. It isn't the swine flu, but definitely a virus that took advantage of my low point. Needless to say, I immediately got my room diffuser going, applied Ravintsara, Niaouli (MQV), Frankincense, & Eucalyptus Globulus to my wrists, chest and nose. I even put a drop of Lavender in my Netti Pot to flush out my sinus cavities. After resting for a whole day, drinking a ton of liquids and using my oils my fever broke and aches went away. I stayed home one extra day to get my reserves back up. I can honestly say I am ready for work.
Essential oils are not a magic bullet cure all, but they may really help our immune system when we are under attack. If caught in time, our symptoms can diminish quickly and other bacterial infections and viruses can be warded off. Remember, it is important to use genuine/authentic oils to receive the best results.
May we all stay healthy this season. Take care and God Bless.
