Update to Oils for Men or My Daily Oils

6:50AM Slept pretty well last night when I finally fell asleep somewhere in the ballpark of eleven thirty.  Got up at five again and started getting ready for my day.  Only a little groggy as I sit here waiting for the ferry to depart to San Francisco updating my blog entries and posting yesterdays.

Still have yet to put my oils on.  Just wanted to let you, the reader, know how I was doing.  And frankly, I feel great.  A bit tired still, but great.  Haven't felt like this in awhile.  I don't know what my resistance is when it comes to products that help you feel better.  I already know the benefits to a largely plant based diet and what it can do for you, why wouldn't the plant based oils be just as good or better?  And you can't beat the quality.

The ferry is pulling away from the dock, let me put my oils on and see how it goes.  More later.

5:45PM Sitting in the bow of the ferry just unwinding from the day.  Busy busy place.  Often think that we are not paid enough for all we have to do.  Been there close to nine months and already feel like I need a vacation.  One of the many reasons why we are YL distributors.  Someday I'll be able to bring people to these wonder products full-time.  Really looking forward to that day.  I love to help people and this has provided another medium for me to fulfill my desire to help.  I now understand the owners desire to see oils in every home.  From Mansion to Mudhut.
But that's for another article I want to write.

So how did the rest of my day go?  My wife didn't have to bail me out of jail at least if that tells you anything.  Half the day was spent on trying to fix my computer.  I was already way behind on the trouble tickets as it was, now fires are breaking out all over and I'm having to deal with them before I can get to work on my other stuff.  I had Stress away diffusing the whole time and it managed to keep me from losing my cool as my computer said "UPDATING....PLEASE WAIT...."  so when it was finally done I was able to get things done.  And my energy level has stayed pretty high and my spirits are very good. 

In use today is Mister, StressAway, Valor, Peppermint for my upset stomach, and Tea Tree.  Oh and Theives spray for my dirty lunch bag.

Oils for Men or My Daily Oils

Aloha everyone!

If you don't know the meaning of Aloha, look it up.  It means so much more than Hello and Goodbye.

I've been feeling rather drained, worn out, and beat down lately.  And today is the first day that I've been able to make the actual 2 hour commute into San Francisco for work.  Got up at 5AM like I normally do, was in pain, tired, didn't want to go as you can imagine.  Well, I pushed through it.  Drove to the Vallejo Ferry building and barely made it.  I was ready to sleep in the car and just say I will be late.  Got on to the ferry and promptly fell asleep.

By the time the ferry docked I was awake but groggy beyond belief.  I never like naps.  Made the walk from the ferry to work and even though it wasn't that far it felt like miles.  Got my coffee, ate my breakfast.  And it hit me, grabbed my oils and started applying and diffusing.  I had gotten away from the every day application.  Eleven  o'clock rolls around and I noticed that I've been busy, focused and awake.  Full of energy which lasted til even now at nine twenty-six in the evening and the dogs are running around the dog park.  I got home and actually started to work on projects.

We shall see how I sleep tonight.

What did I apply?  Valor, Mister, and StressAway.  Diffused StressAway though out the day.  Didn't even have my Ningxia Red.  Good day!  Lesson learned, it's great to carry them, but better if you actually apply them.

Late night oiling blunders.

I had an entirely different post planned for today but in light of my experience last night I decided to share this little story instead.

The oiling life is a fun life...full of lovely scents and damn near miraculous experiences left and right.  It's little bottles of oils throughout the house, diffusers spreading the oil love and wellness and, for some like me, the pride of building a business that is based in relationships and sharing health and hope with friends (old and the ones I haven't met yet).

And...it's full of amusing 'oops' moments.

New Year, New Experiences

While Lorilee will be posting daily, I hope to post at least once a week about what's going on in MY oiling life.  Being able to share in this way is a great way to stop and really look at all that is possible with integrating essential oils into our daily lives.

Lorilee has spoken often in earlier posts about her recent experience with using oils to aid in the passing of a friend and client.  As a witness to that experience, I can only say, it was humbling.  It was also a blessing to be able to offer something that not only brought noticeable relief to the person in transition from this life but also to see and feel what it did for the caregivers as they watched and supported their dear friend and were faced with their own emotions during this time.

1/7/2017 - My Oiling Life

Today is cleaning day, I am always so happy to see my cleaning lady show up to make my house sparkle! Since discovering the oils, she now cleans the house top to bottom with Thieves Household cleaner and not much else. Everything sparkles and smells so good! Best of all, I know that there are not toxic fumes covering my house and harming us and Linda, my cleaning lady. Such a good feeling!

As I was using my Thieves Toothpaste, ART facial products and Wolfberry eye creme this morning, I realized there is another product I use on my face twice daily. It is the Young Living Essential Beauty Serum for dry skin. I add a drop to my moisturizer morning and evening. I love the smell and, best of all, I love what it does for my skin. It feels so good!

1/6/2015 - My Oiling Life

Still finding I am very tired after my trip to visit with Susan. I actually did 2, 2 oz shots of Ningxia Red today, plus a Ningxia Nitro and still barely crawled through my day..I added White Angelica to my bath last night to see if it would clean up my energy field a bit. I ended up having amazing dreams, if nothing else.  Had a busier client day, was able to use oils on all of them with good results. It makes my job so much easier and my clients love them. I'm going to have to start keeping better notes so I can share with you the actual oils I am using. It varies a lot from client to client, depending on what is going on for them.

I got my new Oils Holder today, I am so excited! It hold 154 bottles of oils. I actually have room to expand again.
