Bug Bomb!!

I live in a rustic cabin deep in the woods of Minnesota. It is a common occurrence to see spiders and other critters in the unused areas, especially the porch. I did some digging and found a recipe of Young Living Essential Oils that have helped to keep those unwanted critters at bay!!


Every now and then I also will add a few drops of Young Living Peppermint as that is known to keep mice away as well!

Happy Oiling!!

Essential Oils to avoid with pets.........

I have been increasing my knowledge of Essential Oils and have found many articles agreeing that the following list of essential oils should NOT be used on your pets........

*Anise
*Clove
*Hyssop
*Juniper
*Oregano
*Thyme
*Tansy
*Wintergreen

This is not an exhaustive list so please do your research before you apply an oil to your pet! Knowledge is power, but if used incorrectly, it can be very dangerous too!

The power of Lemon



My friend was telling me about how her doctor told her that is was normal for some people to not have a bowel movement for 12 days as this is an issue she has. I looked at her with a surprised face and asked if she has ever heard of colon cancer. The function of our bowels is to expel toxins our bodies don't need/use. If you are not having a regular bowel movement, those toxins are sitting in your colon for your body to absorb and could lead to other health issues. I gave her my bottle of Young Living Lemon Oil and told her to put one drop in a glass of water, in a glass cup, and drink it but to be near a bathroom as it should make her go! This thought scared her a bit so she didn't try it. She told her mom that she was scared to drink it but she loved the smell and sat at night watching TV smelling the oil and that she had a bowel movement every day since I gave her the oil. When I discovered this, I explained that there are 3 way to get the effects of Essential Oils.....1) aroma therapy, 2)topical application and 3) internal consumption so smelling the oil gave her the effect desired. 
A few days later she decided to put 2 drops on her wrist. About 20 minutes later she was running to the bathroom and said she had never "pooped that long!" I asked her to weigh herself and apply 2 drops daily for a week and weigh herself in a week. She is currently in the process of doing this so I will post her results later :)
I can't wait for her to try the oil internally and start to live a life not bloated from being constipated!!!
