Is Friendship Important?

Liz James · February 12, 2023 ·

It’s amazing to me the way life works. We have circles of friends throughout our lives. At work, church, hobbies, volunteering, drama/trauma related, etc. As God aligns your life, those circles simultaneously tighten and expand and you find your tribe. The circles overlap more and more, becoming tighter yet expanding in perimeter… happy to bring another into the family.. It’s so beautiful to witness and actually having the mental space to notice it as it happens. I’m thankful for you!🙏😘

Farmlife

Liz James · February 8, 2023 ·

The view from here wasn’t pretty this morning ⚡️🌨🌊. I wouldn’t trade farmlife for anything despite the curveballs North Texas weather throws at us. I will say, challenging days like this separates the farm folk from the city dwellers. I think back to our ancestors and admire them so much. I’m pretty tough and willing to do hard things on the regular, but the thought of our people in covered wagons or sod houses (both of which were part of my family’s history) in this kind of rain….I can’t imagine not having a dry warm place to retreat to with running water to rinse off all the mud.

Our ancestors (all of ours), were made of tougher cloth, or we wouldn’t be here . They endured life in ways we can’t easily imagine. I daresay, our current combined generations would have a hard time surviving if “common comforts” were taken away. It’s a good thing to get uncomfortable sometimes. 🙃 It reminds us of our basic luxuries and it is in our uncomfortableness that we are most often innovative and experience growth.

That’s how I started my own health journey when I was in my 30’s. I was uncomfortable enough with my health situation that I was willing to seek a better way. 20+ later I thank God for that uncomfortableness!🙏❤️

The Goodness of Bergamot

Liz James · February 7, 2023 ·

Bergamot. ‘Tis the season to be on the 👀 for seasonal moody blues, and bergamot is known for its “pick me up😍 happy” aroma. No surprise there, citrus oils have been studied extensively in their mood supporting properties.
 
Just for fun…🤓❤️… Google these phrases…
“Pubmed.gov clinical application of bergamot”
.
.
“Pubmed.gov efficacy of bergamot”
.
.
“Pubmed.gov attenuates behavior in rats” 🐀
.
.
There’s some seriously interesting data on the benefits of bergamot.😉 Do a little digging, and in the meantime, start diffusing it around grumpy anxious people and do a little of your own anecdotal data collecting in the process😜.
Life is good. It’s better with bergamot diffusing 🙌❤️!
(It’s also one of my fave electrolyte balancing water flavors!)
 
What’s in your diffuser today?

Protect Our Children

Liz James · February 7, 2023 ·

If you think it’s not happening, this event is especially for you. Child trafficking is a multibillion dollar industry (not including the vulnerable sexually abused children who quietly endure outside the actual industry ) in the USA, and it usually begins with grooming. Look no further than the many recent news stories in our local area. Big cities and small towns are all affected. 😭😭😭.
If you are local to the DFW area, please come.🙏

Why I Choose Natural Healing: The Pharmaceutical Fallout You’re Not Being Told About

Liz James · February 3, 2023 ·

Infographic titled 'Activities that support serotonin naturally' with a lightbulb icon. Lists 11 activities: eat tryptophan-rich foods like turkey and salmon; aerobic exercise; spend more time in sunshine; eat probiotic-rich foods such as yogurt, sauerkraut, or kefir, or take multi-strain probiotics like Young Living's Life 9 or MightyPro for kids; schedule regular massages; practice yoga, mindfulness, or prayer; learn breathing exercises such as box breathing and alternate nostril breathing; volunteer, practice gratitude, and laugh often; aromatherapy with pure essential oils including frankincense, ylang ylang, and citrus oils; prioritize sleep hygiene and get 7-8 hours per night; and socialize even if you don't feel like it.
One of the (MANY) reasons I’m so passionate about finding alternative / natural healing methods is because of the fallout that always occurs to some degree within every single person who steps into chronic pharmaceutical use.
 
Sometimes the fallout is slow🐢. Sometimes it happens quickly🐇. When it happens slowly, it’s rare that the particular medication gets appropriately blamed. Such is the case with antidepressants (and hundreds of other medications) contributing to the surge in antibiotic resistant bacteria in our culture.
 
The consequences: antibiotics may not work as well as they should when they are used, which leads to hard to treat/ difficult to overcome infections. An estimated 35,000 deaths a year in the USA are attributed to antimicrobial resistant infections. I wonder how many of those who have died were taking medication(s) which promoted antibiotic resistance 🤔?
 
Interesting article: 👉How Antidepressants Help Bacteria Resist Antibiotics https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-00186-y.
 
I’m not suggesting anyone get off their medication. Have that conversation with a health provider who is not completely influenced by Big Pharma. And in the meantime, utilize natural ways to heal and support your body in a manner that doesn’t require pharmaceuticals. 😘
