Get Your Iodine, Love Your Thyroid

Liz James · June 5, 2023 ·

Just one more reason to love Nitro! Remember, if your thyroid is struggling, your energy level will be too.

Did you know NingXia Nitro is rich in iodine?

Iodine is essential for THYROID health!

The thyroid is a small butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck. It plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, energy levels, and hormone production. Iodine is a trace mineral that is a key component in producing thyroid hormones!

Ensuring an adequate intake of iodine empowers your thyroid to function optimally, promoting healthy metabolism and balanced hormone levels. A deficiency in iodine can lead to thyroid disorders such as hypothyroidism, causing fatigue, weight gain, and mood imbalances.

Prioritizing iodine for thyroid health empowers you to cultivate a harmonious balance within your body, promoting a vibrant and energetic life!

Young Living’s June extras

Liz James · June 1, 2023 ·

Happy June friends! My heart did a little pitter-patter when I saw this month’s gift with purchase. Almost exactly 10 years ago, Sulfurzyme was a YL freebie for the month, and it literally changed my life. I CANNOT wait for you to have the same free (ah-ha!) opportunity I had. I’ll get to the rest of my Sulfurzyme story here in a little bit….. but first, let’s talk about how the rest of this month’s freebies may benefit you!

10 extra points for Loyalty Orders 100PV and over. Remember, this is literally like getting 10$ back on your order (in addition to the 10%, 20%, or 25% you are already getting back in points). For example, you’ve been a Loyalty Rewards subscriber for 4 months now…. you qualify for 20% back on your order. If you purchase 200PV worth of products, you’ll get 40$ +10$ worth of points back (to use on more products for free!).
Roll On bottle Trio…… Are you making roller bottles, or do you tend to use your oils “neat” (undiluted)? A little oil goes a loooong way, and in most cases (with a few exceptions) you will get more bang for your buck by using your oils diluted with a quality carrier oil. Other advantages to diluting oils (or using a roller bottle)…..ease of use… so much easier to roll than drip! when you dilute with a quality carrier oil, you are slowing down the evaporation rate of the oil, effectively creating an “extended-release” version of your oil of choice. when you dilute, you are able to create a less potent version for sensitive skin situations (this includes little kids and elder skin).
Purification is a house favorite, especially in seasons where there are biting bugs . It’s a blend of 6 oils that both repel bugs and also create an environment for healthy healing soothing support of bites and stings! Use those roller bottles you’re getting for free and add them to your “on the go” first aid kit. I keep one in my purse all year long. Bonus points…. Purification is also really good at neutralizing odors (eg: put a few drops in stinky sweaty shoes ).
Bergamot is happy in a bottle. If you are a tea drinker, you might recognize bergamot as the distinctive flavor of Earl Grey Tea. It has some pretty significant mood-lifting qualities…… if this is something that appeals to you, this freebie opportunity would be a great chance to try diffusing bergamot daily for a solid month. Keep a journal on your emotions…. you just never know what you might discover! (NOTE: Bergamot is one of those oils that may cause photosensitivity…. so if you apply it to the skin, make sure it’s an area that won’t see the sun’s summer rays!)
Sulfurzyme tho….. If I could give everyone the gift of Sulfurzyme, I would! When it was a freebie 10 years ago, I didn’t know a thing about it, but it was free…. so I thought, “What the heck”, I’m going to try it. Sulfurzyme is the friend of pretty much anyone who has chronic inflammation. In my case, I lived with a VERY inflamed bladder…. which meant I felt like I had to pee constantly. I had already changed my diet, and that helped by about 50%. Still, getting up several times a night to go to the bathroom (again, my story was inflammation) was really cramping my sleep style. It took about 3-4 weeks to fully kick in, but the effects have been incredible for me….. literally life-changing! Since then, I’ve had a pretty severe accident and was told by my surgeon that I would probably have pain and walk with a limp for the rest of my life. Granted, I eat right, move/exercise daily, stay well hydrated… all the things…. AND I take BLM (another YL product for bone, ligament, and muscle support), and I have no pain (or limping) on any given day. We have tools ya’ll! I have been praying that they would give Sulfurzyme as a freebie again for years….. people just need the opportunity to try it. I personally take 2 capsules twice a day….. and a bottle taken that way will last 75 days (2 1/2 months)….. it’s probably one of the most economical wellness tools out there when it comes to healthy inflammation support.

Enjoy your day and Happy June friends!

Be Prepared to Support Self-Healing

Liz James · May 26, 2023 ·

These products (along with a few others) literally saved my tooshie this month. I used points to replace what I’ve used to keep myself out of the world of mainstream medicine. So basically… except for shipping… I received free health and wellness tool replacements.

We each have the capacity to self-heal if we are willing to do the work beforehand. What does that mean

Practice on the small stuff, so you tread confidently when the big stuff goes down. (The Month of May was one of those rare occasions for me for the big stuff).

Always take advantage of any education that comes your way. Some of the best education comes in the form of personal stories. (This month of May gave me a doozie!

to tell… and I will report here, soon). Take good notes… you just never know when the application of knowledge becomes extremely important to the mind, body, and to our bank account.

Shining a Light on Tetanus

Liz James · May 22, 2023 ·

May has been a month friends. If you believe in a spiritual battle, it’s been a high month for that. I’ll be doing a live here in the next day or two explaining all that is going on. In the meantime, please pray.

On another note, as I bring myself back to the land of the living, this topic of conversation came up the other day with a dear friend of mine. We think we know things….. until we don’t. I’m a strong proponent of informed consent. That means you are given the information…. all of it…. to examine from all angles.

What are your thoughts on tetanus shots?

Please take the time to read this well-written article and let me know if it gives your brain

a niggle or two. It’s a smart thing to have an inquiring mind!
