Plants as Medicine

Touchy Topic

Liz James · November 13, 2020 ·

One of the blessings of hanging out with mentors and Young Living community friends, is getting honest “been there”….done THAT anecdotal information. Those convos and personal stories have empowered me in ways that have rocked my health world. Don’t ever turn down a chance to sit in on a “story swapping” session… sit down and soak up knowledge like a sponge….. you may come away with a life changing nugget for you or someone you love. #protip


Have you ever wondered……….
*Can you use essential oils where the sun doesn’t shine? Absolutely! (caveat: I would only recommend using Young Living because of their purity… otherwise I change my answer to “all bets are off!”)
*Do you need to dilute? Absolutely!
*Do you need to do your research on which oils would benefit (and which oils should be avoided!) the nether regions? Absolutely 100% YES!
This is a DIY’er recipe to hang on to….. you just never know when you might need to make some!…. and It sounds like it might be a good idea to keep some organic cocoa butter on hand…. you just never know when you might need it!

Btw, it takes a lot of chutzpah to own a website name like that😂💖!
PS: men…. if you haven’t run for the hills and made it to the bottom of this post,  you have nether regions too 😉 . #soakandlearn

how to make herbal suppositories

Improve Cognitive Performance – Aromatherapy

Liz James · November 11, 2020 ·

​Wow! Such an interesting 4 minute video and worth the listen. Dr. Michael Greger MD is a favorite of mine, and this is his video.


Topic?……. Improving cognitive performance using aromatherapy,  💖 especially in cases of neurodegenerative dis-ease. 


I stepped back from corporate pharmacy and into the roots (& flowers 🌹, leaves🌿, and trees🌳 😉 ) of pharmacognosy because of information (like this) which remains largely unrecognized by mainstream medicine….. literal golden nuggets of self care…. which allow us improved quality of life, increased autonomy, and educated self care. 


How many of you have seen a cognitively impaired patient who was so medicated that they were almost “zombi-fied”?


Roughly 50% of people with dementia experience behavioral or psychological symptoms that doctors often ‘chemically restrain’ by way of drugs that are often well known for their increased morbidity and mortality risks in the elderly…. not to mention dulling them cognitively even more. #riskvsbenefitfail


👆 Why?….. because it’s easier to prescribe a drug than it is to offer non-pharmacological alternatives. To be fair,few western medicine health care workers are trained in aromatherapy, nor have they taken the time to learn on their own.  #notfundedbyBigPharma


Final tidbit….. I don’t want to spill all the beans here…. Dr. Greger speaks of Lemon Balm. Friends, that is also known as “Melissa”…… grown on our Young Living Farm in St. Marie’s, Idaho. 
Go. Learn. Apply your knowledge! Help a friend or loved one out and share what you know and may already have in your possession.

Detox Disinfectants

Liz James · November 7, 2020 ·

Good morning friends! 2020 has given us an unexpected load of “bonus”  toxins☠️ in the form of excessive disinfectant use. #ugh “They” are squirting, spraying, fogging, and wiping down surfaces (including our hands and our lungs!) in an effort to comply with recommendations given by governing entities, but at what cost long term?
In pharmacy, there is something called risk versus benefit. We are ALL being exposed to this risk (and it is risky…. unprecedentedly so!) as businesses and schools are now disinfecting sometimes even hourly during operating hours.
We are the ultimate CEO’s of our bodies, and nobody is going to be there to pick up the pieces of this over exposure except for us.🙋‍♀️🙋🙋‍♂️If you’d like to begin making amends with your 2020 toxin load, I’d like to invite you to a class…..
​
☣️Detoxing the Disinfectants☣️
This class is available two ways:
Texting : Text “Lysol” to 469.425.9091
An online class on Monday November 9th at 6pm CST/ 7pm EST co-hosted by Kimber Elizabeth, Kristine Lucius, and myself. Please message one of us if you are interested in attending the online Facebook class!

Why Vitamin B Matters

Liz James · October 13, 2020 ·

Did you know….. a deficiency in B vitamins has been linked to mood changes and depression. Vit B’s are key ingredients when it comes to the body’s ability to make mood enhancing chemicals (you may know them as serotonin, dopamine, and epinephrine😉). If your diet is lacking,  both physical and mental health may be affected. 
If the upcoming winter months tend to be an emotionally darker time of year for you, make sure you are giving your body the tools it needs to keep your light bright and shining!😘

Goldenrod

Liz James · October 13, 2020 ·

Good morning friends! Yesterday as I was driving home, I passed a large section of what I thought was ragweed. I stopped, hopped out, and snapped a pic….. (planning on writing about allergies). I Googled ragweed and lo and behold,  I’m fairly certain what I had snapped a pic of was our highly esteemed Goldenrod!  
This got me to thinking… and I messaged my friend Danette. Neither of us was 100% certain it was even tho it definitely looks like it. 😂 #weareamateurbotanists 
This little scenario made me value Young Living and all of their science and attention to detail even more so….. I mean, who wants to guess on a plant like this? It could mean the difference between effectiveness or a bad rash 😳. #wherethesundoesntshine


I also love how God gave us plants that have healing powers often just in the season that we may need it.


Most of us YL’ers know Goldenrod as that magical bedroom oil💖☝️………But it’s so much more than that! #alloilsaremultipurpose


Just a few other uses….
🌾seasonal respiratory support👈🙏🍂
🌾relieves gassiness
🌾helps loosen mucus (drink more water too!)
🌾acts as a tonic to nourish and support kidneys and urinary tract #valuable
🌾supports healthy liver function
🌾creates an inhospitable environment for fungus
🌾supports a proper inflammatory response #greatforjoints!


All this to say…. don’t leave Goldenrod in the bedroom! God blessed Gary with the know how and the willing spirit to share with all of us. It’s up to us to maximize the potential of all our gorgeous and healing oils!
xoxo~ liz
