Warning THIS is gonna be long but I need to get this out there!!
I have taken 100mg Zoloft (Dr prescribed 200mg but I just couldn’t function during the day on 200) for about 18 years and 10mg Ambien since 2009 for sleep (EVERY NIGHT except the 6 weeks I was out of work when I broke my ankle. since I couldn't do anything except sleep during the day). I had decided this was just gonna be the way I lived the rest of my life!! I had no extra energy during the day at all.
Well Carol Anne wanted me to “try” some oils. She was convinced it would help me. (I wasn’t but what did I have to lose) I enrolled in a week long session that went over uses of several oils, that I had been provided samples of before class. I used what I had and thought “hey if this stuff is all natural what could it hurt? I decided to try the Beginner Oil Kit (5ml bottles of Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint Oils). I was really excited to try something new but also very cautious that it would change ANYTHING in my life. In the meantime I found a new Holistic Dr and he lowered my prescriptions to 100mg Zoloft and 5mg Ambien (I got the same sleep with 5 that I had with 10mg, so hey that’s a plus) I tried several nights not taking the Ambien at all and just rub Lavender Oil in my feet. I slept fine but woke up tired and just not able to function thru the whole day 😢 so I kept taking the 5mg Ambien nightly. I decided to fill my prescription for the 5mg (been just cutting 10mgs in half) So I took the 5’s a while longer and then decided if the 5’s gave me the same sleep as the 10’s I wonder what 2.5’s would do. So I started cutting the 5’s in half and found I still was getting the SAME sleep levels as the 5’s and 10’s. I took the 2.5’s for about 2 weeks until I decided to try one more time sleeping with the Lavender oil only!! Well Friday Feb 23, I was invite to a doTERRA SPA night and that’s were I decide “tonight is the night!” I spoke with Robin (the host of that party) about my goal and she suggested rubbing the oil on my temple, across my forehead to the other temple before bed and rubbing oil on my feet! I also put oil in my diffuser by my bed and went to sleep! AND what do you know?!?!? I SLEPT!! No Ambien and didn’t wake up feeling tired!!! I honestly felt like THIS was finally what I had been looking for in my life!!!! Saturday morning I didn’t take my Zoloft either! Something told me I didn’t need it! I didn’t feel like I needed a nap and honestly felt GOOD all day!! Happy and PROUD of myself!!! Now I also have taken doTERRA’s Life Long Vitality pack since January on the advice of Tracy Himes! I hadn’t noticed any change in taking this until about a month ago when I realized a famine problem that I had for about a year had gotten COMPLETELY better and those supplements are the ONLY thing that I had changed at the time!! It wasn’t a known “side benefit “ but it now is for me!! After reading more into the ingredients of the capsules I now KNOW it is what did it!
Now as I told Carol Anne in the beginning I WOULD never try to get others “on board” if I didn’t believe in these oils myself WELL I DO!!! I have not had ANY drugs, over the counter or prescription, in MY body since Feb 23rd!!! No Advil, no Zantac, no Tylenol NOTHING!! I have energy to do things and not wanting to go to bed at 8:00pm anymore!! These oils have SERIOUSLY changed my life!! I haven’t had any depression or anxious feelings at all!!! I can’t wait to go back to my Dr and tell him!!
I am now ready to SHARE my oils with others!!! I want to move up with this company (to get more oils FREE) but not as much as I want to help YOU achieve the freedom that I feel!!! 25% off is nothing compared to this feeling!!! I have built my oil base up and ready for any struggles that life has to throw at me!!!
Whether you want to come along side of me or not is NOT going to change the way I feel about doTERRA!
THANK YOU CAROL ANNE and TRACY for pushing me along!!!
