Personal Testimony: What It's Like Using Pure Essential Oils
My personal testimony about essential oils therapy begins in this moment and works backward. I have been married two and a half years to the love of my life, who I found as a consequence of the opening of my heart, which was helped along with the healing elixers in 5ml or 15ml bottles that I now CANNOT do without.
When I first got divorced years ago, the oils were extremely useful in helping me to cope. By wearing the blend called Joy™ I learned to love myself and express this emotion despite whatever was thrust before me ~ dealing with old memories that I faced without hurt and shame, and with new understanding.
Joy is a very important oil to me because I didn't think it was so joyful or sweet-smelling at first, and said so. I was not above trying it though! Ingredients include rose, bergamot, mandarin, ylang ylang, lemon, geranium, jasmine, palmarosa, Roman chamomile and rosewood.
Over time I grew to love the scent and the deeper awareness this combination of oils raises in me. The aromatic and emotional constituents have helped me to exercise a new muscle I call "it'll take care of itself, in a rosey-tangy way" (all that citrus). To honor possibility just by the aroma of an oil is a beautiful thing. This is one reason we diffuse Joy at health fairs.
Another oil that I love for its supporting my feelings of wholeness is ylang ylang, which means flower of flowers in Filipino. The petals of this flower are spread on the wedding bed of newlyweds. It surely helps to harmonize my male and female energies and I feel much more feminine, earthy and grounded as a woman when using it. It inspires harmonious partnering between individuals and harmonizes the gendered parts of the self ~ I can testify to both of these outcomes.
Oils that replace my sugar co-dependency (sweet is good!) include coriander, nutmeg, cinnamon bark and fennel. Just a drop added to tea is delightful and restorative. For the perils of common table sugar and guidance toward alternatives, click here. I do reflexology on myself with Valor™ and Sacred Mountain blends.
These wonderful oils also help to "anoint" my coping mechanisms by relaying the oil molecules through the soles and other sections of my feet. I use Di-Gize™ on my stomach, liver and intestinal areas to increase my body's ability to absorb nutrients from food. This fall I used GLF™~ the gall bladder-liver flush ~ to help detox these two organs. I stayed regular and my skin seems much clearer. I also used Stress Away™ to lessen the burden of the 9-5. It's vanilla-lime scent is heavenly.
If you want to know how my body reacts when I've overloaded my liver and not detoxed, see way below. Better my skin than my c
olon is what I say. I am happy to report I have no more breakouts.
Anyway, I love using cypress on my knees and calves. I've practically forgotten I used to have pre-arthritic knee pain (so-called "runs in the family"), for which my mother turned down knee surgery. I've been using it on her knees and feet and she too no longer has knee pain.
When I got my eyes checked after only about four months of drinking the NingXia Red (formerly known as Berry Young Juice) daily, the doctor said they seemed to have improved a bit, and hesitated to stress, "only slightly. Your prescription will be slightly weaker." Yet I know the goji berries are legendary for enriching the eyes. The juices made with it have earned accolades for improving eyesight to the point of removing glasses altogether.
As a former journalist and editor I was overjoyed to hear the optometrist's comments, reluctant as they were. My eyes had been getting progressively worse with every biennial trip for a check-up. Now, I take my glasses off a lot during the course of a day, and driving seems to be the only place I really need them. I've typically used them for distance and TV, not reading. I am using them less for TV these days, too.
On the spiritual front, using frankincense, myrrh, Idaho balsam fir, and Believe™ and Surrender™ blends
of therapeutic oils, the Creator has opened my intuition and taught me to use it to serve people better. My life is a constant roll of things falling into place rather than apart, as Chinua Achebe wrote passionately about (Things Fall Apart). I find myself constantly imagining how things will come together rather than break into pieces, sections or factions.
The HealMobile is one way this thought pattern has manifested. My vision for the world (aka my alignment with Source or God's will for me) are echoes of the awakening experiences of the protagonist in The Healers, the wonderful book we must all read by Ayi Kwei Armah.
There comes a point when one turns from childhood, the past and other folk's stories toward one's own gift or present-that-you-are. Life can be your time to create your own "idea of fun," rather than say, "that's NOT my idea of fun," like when Mom used to use her saliva to clean out my nose.
Some people call it co-creating with God. Therapeutic grade essential oils help me to understand that language, though I submit I also, equally, create nothing but thought and not even that by leave of something bigger than myself.
The elevating frequencies of these medicinal oils, their aroma and their annointing value as food for the spirit bring me to put it this way: I think / thank God, therefore I Am as We Are.
My story is an ongoing story of miracles. Perhaps Magnify Your Purpose™ and Highest Potential™ oil blends have helped with this. I have just started using Envision. You would have to study quantum physics and the vibrational frequencies of matter, including plant substances and thoughts, to know that reference to the "help" of oils is not of the idolatrous sort.
"Superstition Ain't The Way" as Stevie Wonder sang. My meditation and salats (contact-with-God service prayers) have all been strengthened by my pursuit of the best and purest therapeutic oils. So have my reiki ability and efforts to meet the goals of my day job. I am grateful, appreciative of breath and speech, and inspired in this moment.
The personal testimony within the bio page also gives a sense of how these oils have affected me. And I want to emphasize that the quality and purity of the oils are the absolute essential bottom line of aromatherapy and using oils to sustain health. You gotta have them.

THE LATEST
I summoned the courage and signed up for an aromatherapy certification course. The first two sessions of classes was outstanding. Spikenard is my new favorite oil! I could not believe the difference in my whole demeanor after I was annointed with this oil. What an honor to have met wonderful like-minded spirits in the class, and the teacher Linda Smith, R.N., author of several books including Healing Oils, Healing Hands. You gotta have it!
Good thing I'm learning how to heal myself ya think!? Ugh!
