An attitude of gratitude:

An attitude of gratitude, not only changes our perspective, it helps bring us back from a cycle of negative thinking. I will never forget the looks on the faces of many lupus friends when I shared our November meeting idea a few years back about being thankful for lupus. Why?

Think about this....negative thoughts can chronically impact the well being of our mind, but also the body and spirit.

Focusing on gratitude, even for a few moments, can shift our focus from negative thinking to the positive potential. It is one way to bring ourselves to mindfulness in the moment from an onslaught of thoughts.

So let me share a few weekends of thoughts that might inspire you...

“I am grateful for the opportunity to reshape the trajectory of my life into what is most important to me.”

As I say this today, I rub a few drops of this Believe blend over my throat to speak my truth. To allow words to come forth that are positive, and inspirational to others, so that you too may believe change is possible.

Some people are amazed at the transformation. But the truth is, everyday is a battle to keep that inner flame burning. You have to give it the right fuel and not sniff out your spark with negative emotions.

How strong is your inner fire?

I had to share this. THIS is so true. Many people ask how I have gotten to this point, and the truth is, I knew I had to learn, I had to believe that I could make a difference in my health.

Let me share something...shhhh....don't tell anyone....I'm not perfect. Yes, I admit it. I need reminders too. Lupus and life sucked away my memory and I find that I do best with a list. Well, turns out I am not the only one with list issues. Alanna does good with a list too. So, pulled out some "motivation" essential oil and started diffusing and low and behold this popped up on my Facebook thread! LOL. This might get printed out for the summer! Just saying....LOL Anyone else with me?

It's not often that I jump up and down and shout out to all of you to take advantage of the monthly promos, but this month, WOW. It is seriously $178 value of oils you get free as an ER member with 300 PV. If you aren't on ER, then we need to talk about starting this month! So why am I so excited? Let me tell you a little about each:

Clarity....all these classes that I have been putting together for our leadership team, editing books, focus on learning....all with this gem. A few drops of this in the diffuser and the world opens up to you!

Juniper...a gem few people in the oily world discover alone, but a favorite of mine for a good salt bath.

Eucalyptus radiata, um....yeah. Are you going outside in the next few weeks? Then don't forget to take this little bottle with you. I have been using Breath Again roller and my Raven the last few days, all have this oil in them. A staple!

Peace & Calm....Can I get a raise of hands from anyone who can tell me they haven't prayed for a moment of peace this past week? Honestly? When the day gets away from you, let this one bring you back to center. I just taught about this with pets over the weekend!

Lime Vitality....Margaritas anyone? Moscow Mules? Guacamole? Kick your favorite may recipes up and add some oils to your Cinco de Mayo bash. So simple! If you need some recipes, just ask!

So we are on budgetville in the Folger house, but I will be working some extra time into maybe a garage sale or side jobs to be sure that I can budget out to maximize this one because ALL of these are awesome and well, for me, they are all WELL LOVED and FREQUENTLY USED oils so I might as well stock up for FREE!

It’s been a long week. Emotionally draining. Cross country road trip. Not eating like I have been suddenly. Medical things. Budget discussions. Hotel and camper beds. More cross country travel and fast food. Can you see where my liver may be a little clogged with emotions and taxed out trying to keep up with me? Time to reward myself on being home. Home sweet Home.

Bath time! So I know a few of you are curious about my obsession with detox baths. Well let me share my bath recipe for tonight. I had my rituxan (chemo) today and I always like to do a bath the night of, if I have the energy, and a few times that following week. For me, the chemo actually seems to trigger a lupus flare and the more I learn about the hormones, my metabolism and the liver, the more I see the connections. My problem is autoimmune right, so my body begins this big wave of attacking cells that it thinks are dying...um hello...cytotoxic (cell killing) agents have just been pumped thru my body. My liver has to go into overtime to help filter out these dead cells along with the drug. This also starts hormone changes in balancing electrolytes because of massive fluid shifts.

My combat then is to help support the kidneys in filtration, the liver of the toxins and waste and then to support balance within the rest of my body. Earlier in my self care experiments, I read that Robert Tisserand suggested no oils for 2 weeks before and after chemo because they had the potential to actually protect the cells and not although the chemo agents to destroy the cell. I remember thinking “oh my gosh!” And for that round I didn’t use my oils. I was sicker than a dog people! One of the worst responses ever to the side effects of the drug. That follow up treatment appointment I discussed this with my physician and she said she supported me using the oils because my recovery was so much smoother that it actually prevented several other complications liver liver and kidney per my labs post treatment and she felt that my overall benefit from the chemo drug was not effected by any of the previous or now subsequent labs we’ve done. She gave me the green light and I haven’t looked back. My case is obviously different than others but do the research yourself and look at those studies. Most of them were with extremely high volumes of oils and not my little bits here and there throughout the days.

So the bath craze? I can tell you that I sleep so much better after one and usually feel recharged rather than completely sluggish for a week. Many of my friends that have seen me days after my infusions can probably attest to the fact that when I give myself a little more self love and self care, you wouldn’t know I just had a $25,000 drug infused into my body.

This aromatherapy bible site is a fun prospective on history and use of many essential oils. I particularly like the historical aspect. So I have copied some notes about my favorites for tonight’s bath.

My recipe for tonight? 1 cup Epsom salt, 1/2 cup baking soda, 7 drops bay laurel, 5 drops lemon, 4 drops sandalwood (I don’t use this one often, only when my mood is edgy and need to chill more), and 10 drops lavender.

That’s it! Now, go spread the word and take a bath!

I took aromatherapy to the next level. When I saw changes happening in my own life, after years of struggling with lupus, RA and a host of autoimmune issues, I needed to understand how these little bottles were changing my life. As a nurse, I am research driven and love to find great resources for learning. In January, I finished my scholars program with the School of Aromatic Studies and am now a Certified Professional Aromatherapist who takes wellness seriously. My goal is to teach you to look at your body in a holistic view and not just sniffing an oil here and there, but learning to live a lifestyle that you can take control of. I am here to be your guide and support. To inspire you to reach your wellness goals.
