Dancing With "Spirit"

“Spirit and I have been dancing together for many years!
We have been doing the “jitterbug", and so many other Fast Dances I cannot count or name them all!
“Spirit” would, swing to the left, I would, swing to the right!
I would turn myself about and shake it all around.
Spirit would simlpy smile and wait for me to turn it back around.
Spirit would disappear and I would look behind the mirror.

It was only recently that I realized that “Spirit” was simply waiting,
waiting for me to ask for a “slow dance”!
Well I did just that the other day and, I have never let go!
To dance with “Spirit” Nice, and, Slow…
To hold tight, to feel “Spirit’s heart beating next to mine, side by side as one.
To know that “spirit and I are now dancing as one!
That we are one, one of the all that is.
That we are dancing with the universe and you and….
Dancing The Night and, Eternity away!!!
Just You, “Spirit” and Me!!!
Don Fisher

Exotic and Sumptuous Essential Oils

People have been asking about ordering some special oils, so we wanted to let everyone know what we’re looking at purchasing.

Here are the Oils and some of their stories and properties:

Prices and amounts available are - 1/8 oz $25 1/4 oz $50 and 1/2 oz $100

Rose – The healing properties of the Rose have been used throughout the ages, in medicine, it is stimulating and elevating to the mind, creating a sense of well be-ing.

Myrrh – For thousands of years it was one of the most desired and expensive items in the world. In Greek Mythology the resinous drops from the Myrrh tree were said to be teardrops from the Goddess Myrrha. It is also said that from the blooms of the trees the child Adonis was born.

Vanilla – 1/8 oz $40 1/4 oz $70Violet – 1/4 oz $40, 1/2 oz $70

Magnolia – 1/4 oz $15 and 1/2 $30

When Talking about Using these Sumptuous Oils, here are a few reasons to consider using them!Fragrances vs. Essential Oils
Fragrance: The question posed is that of the fragrances that we love so dearly. When we speak of fragrances the first thought that comes to most is that of the perfumes/colognes, shampoos, everyday household cleaning products etc... The list is endless.The desire to use them to do everything from cleaning to help with emotional Well Be-ing is as natural to use as the air we breath. The problem "lies" in what is considered a fragrance! Or what the FDA allows to be used in the products marketed in this country as a fragrance.There are potentially over 1,000 "ingredients" used by the commercial perfume industry alone that could cause harmful effects to those that use the products. The European Union has banned at least that many from their marketplaces while our government has banned as few as eight. This is allowed because, all the perfume companies need to do to get around the FDA's standards is to call the ingredients a "trade secret" allowing them to use illegal ingredients without the government doing so much as to even blink an eye! Among many of the harmful effects of these "secret ingredients" and potentially the most harmful, is that they can reach though the membrane barrier in the mind into the "Limbic System" where our memories, our cognitive skills, the regulation of our nervous system, blood pressure and heart rate are controlled among many other other functions important to our Well Be-ing. Damage to this system can cause adverse effects such as vascular degeneration of the brain, damage to the spinal cord and peripheral nerves, hyperactivity, depression, mood swings, seizures.... the list is long! The industry has always stated that they would clean up there products. The problem is that they are allowed to self-regulate this "clean up"

Vs.

Essential Oils: These Oils have been around since the dawning of this beautiful planet we call home! They were here long before the first "Modern Doctors" were given diplomas and told they were ready to go out among the people and "heal" them. And yes they do have wonderful healing properties! They have been shown to raise our "vibration level" with just the faintest of an inhalation. But for healing the spirit? They too reach the Limbic System, but as pure Essence's with only the properties that "Spirit" intended! They have been shown to "help" improve the very same symptoms the fragrance industry is harming with all the additives they call "trade secrets"! Oh and by the way. Did we happen to mention that these oils "AROMA'S heal the Heart, Mind and Soul all the while bringing the true fragrance's of the earth to our daily lives! Pure Essential Oils are just that! PURE! No "additives" no "trade secrets"!
Let us know if you’re interested in any of the oils, we can almost do any size for you.

Herb Day Fair and Chef Mayra's Essential Oils Recipe's

The 2nd Annual Herb Day Fair, which is dedicated to informing everyone interested about the “Health and Wellness Benefits” and the Healing properties of Natures Gifts, was held this year on October 2nd at the St. Rose Dominican Hospital in SW Las Vegas.
We wanted to begin this newsletter by thanking them for all their help and efforts in promoting and allowing this event to be held there!
It was a wonderful event with lots of information and classes to attend.
Also, Congratulations to Beth Briley who was the recipient of our Gift Tea package giveaway!
One of the Vendors at the event was Las Vegas' Very Own "Vegan Chef" Mayra, who this year did some cooking and handed out samples of some of her marvelous dishes and refreshments.
They were all done with our very own "The Center Of Power" Essential Oils! And well, they were Marvelous!
We ran out of recipe sheets while at the event and promised the many that were not able to get a copy that we would post the recipe's for them.
So the following are a few that she prepared at the event and a "bonus" recipe for everyone as well!
All We can say is Enjoy!
Cooking With Essential Oils from The Center Of Power
Essential oils are extremely potent and provide many benefits in both healing and therapy. Essential oils retain the entire essence of healing oxygenating molecules, nutrients, trace minerals, coenzyme A factors, amino acid precursors, hormones, vitamins and enzymes. Essential oils are filled with bountiful goodness - and you can use them in their form for cooking purposes.
Since the chemical structure in essential oils is similar to that of the cells and tissues in the human body, they are accepted by the body and are compatible with human proteins. Cooking with essential oils is therefore seen by many as safe and beneficial. They provide that extra energy, vigor, and health for the entire family – in addition to providing great taste to your means!
A Little Goes A Long Way
If you are using spice oils that are very strong, such as thyme, oregano, nutmeg, marjoram, cinnamon or basil, just dip a toothpick in the oil and stir it in the dish after it is cooked. This is an excellent way to add flavor to food. Cooking with essential oils is excellent as just a drop of it is equal to the goodness of a whole bottle of dried herbs.
Using Oils
Citrus oils such as tangerine, orange or lemon, should be added to the dish just before serving. This will ensure the oil does not evaporate and the dish retains the citrus flavor.
As you are cooking with essential oils such as rosemary, oregano and basil, you can add the oil as the dish is simmering. This adds a wonderfully exotic taste.
Safety
It is important to make sure the oils you are considering are safe for cooking. Therapeutic grade oils are usually safe for use in cooking, but be sure to check the product label.
Benefits of Using Essential Oils
The smell of essential oil is known to control and curb appetite. According to research, smell instigates taste. Using essential oils in cooking everyday and inhaling the vapors and smell on a consistent basis may also curb your appetite. The aroma from the essential oil switches off epistat nerve, which is the part in our brain responsible for hunger. Cooking with essential oils therefore may actually help you lose weight!
There are various interesting cookbooks available that details recipes you can make using essential oils.
Recipes can also be found on various websites on the internet. They tell you all about which oil can be used or what type of dishes.
Tips For Using Essential Oils
Peppermint, clove, rosemary, lavender or lemon oil can be used as salad oils for salad dressings.
Thyme, oregano, marjoram or basil can be used with meat and sauces.
Oils such as peppermint, tangerine, orange, clove or lemon can be used with puddings, frosting, cakes and fruit pies.
Essential oils such as Melissa, peppermint, lemon, tangerine, orange, roman chamomile and lavender can be used to make interesting varieties of herbal tea.
As you are cooking with essential oils, make refreshing drinks by adding peppermint, tangerine, orange or lemon to a jug of cold water. You can warm agave nectar and add in lemon, chamomile, basil, lavender, clove or cinnamon to make flavored agave nectar.
Creatively use essential oils in your dishes for good health and vigor for the entire family.

Keep the "System" Running Smooth

A Healthy Running System
Elimination is one of the most important functions of the body. In America, I believe, it is underrated. We feed our body, we fill our body, and, it also must come out of our body. If it does not, it becomes a toxin and we fell less than perfect. Our body begins to react and break down from the poisons.
Here are some things that can help get your system healthy and running again.
1. Eliminate white flour (and sugar). Remember how to make paper mache' from 1st grade (or home made glue)? It does the same thing within your intestines. Switch to WHOLE GRAINS; pastas, breads, tortillas, chips. These are all much more nutritious, natural and good for your “well running system”.
2. Other binding foods to avoid or limit: white rice, cheese, and toast.
3. Eat Oatmeal. Oatmeal has a natural mucilage quality that helps everything “slip” through your system. I’m not a fan of the soft mushy stuff; I like the texture of Steal Cut Oats. They take a little longer to prepare (10 Min), but I find them SO much tastier and enjoyable. I like them plain with a little salt; sometimes butter or a little coconut oil is a nice treat. Some people put flax oil or ground flax seed on top as well.
4. Add flax seed and oil to your diet. This is a very healthy oil and also helps things run properly. It’s best to use the whole seed and grind it fresh in a coffee grinder designated for seeds and herbs. Seeds can be added to salads, sauces and smoothies (drink right away as the seeds will swell and thicken the smoothie). Pre-ground is inferior as the oils go rancid quickly once the seed is broken. It is helpful to keep the seeds in the refrigerator or purchase in small amounts and use quickly. If all this is too much, at the very least you can buy the flax seed oil and add it to dressings, oatmeal, smoothies, etc…
5. Kombucha is a tea with healthy bacteria that aids in digestion. It can have a strong effect on some people, they need to start out with small amounts and build up. Others can start drinking a cup or more per day. See the post on Kombucha.
6. Add a refrigerated Pro biotic to your daily routine. Again, this is healthy bacteria that aides in digestion and supports the intestines.
7. Eat a fruit that has seeds in it first thing in the morning. Fruits with seeds can complete the entire life cycle, so they are highly nutritious and are digested quickly. Eating them first thing in the morning can help complete the bodies cleansing cycle.
8. Eliminate coffee. Coffee is oxidized, as is black tea. This dries out the colon and causes constipation, even though most people think it helps the process. Usually it is an incomplete bowel movement. Dandy blend is a great alternative that is caffeine free and actually nutritious and healthy for you. See our post on Dandy Blend.
For more information on Dandy Blend.
9. Licorice Tea aids in constipation and is quite tasty, even if you don’t like the black licorice candy. In it’s natural form, it has a gentle sweetness that people find surprisingly tasty. Again, this is a caffeine free beverage that is wonderful in the morning, but can also be delicious in the afternoon or before bed. See our post on Licorice.
10. Use natural products, laxatives can be addictive and keep the body from establishing the natural elimination process.

H1N1: New Information

With the Swine flu story growing as we head into the "season" of Colds and the Flu. And with the "fear factor" being elevated. "Out of Vaccine" reads some headlines.
We wanted again to bring some more information to you.

The only portals of entry for a Flu Virus are the nostrils and mouth/ throat. Clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water. Not everybody may be good at Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities), but blowing the nose hard once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population. Eucalyptus; Some of the properties of this Oil include, being an expectorant, an anti-infectious an anti-inflammatory aid. It helps reduce inflammation of the nasal mucus membranes as well. It would be a good Oil to put on the tip of the swab also, to help in bringing down the viral population. Drink as much of warm liquids as you can. Drinking warm liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm. The active component in kombucha tea is most likely glucaric acid. This compound, also known as D-glucaro-1,4 lactone, helps in the elimination of glucuronic acid conjugates that are produced by the liver. When glucuronic acid conjugates are disposed in the bowel during the elimination process, normal gut bacteria can break up these conjugates using an enzyme called beta-glucuronidase. Glucaric acid is an inhibitor of this bacterial enzyme, so the end result is that the glucuronic acid + waste is properly eliminated the first time, rather than being reabsorbed and detoxified over and over.
This information combined with what we have posted previously can help in reducing the threat of any colds that may get passed around. Not just this season, or even the "H1N1" virus in particular. But for any cold and flu season.
Staying calm and continuing good hygiene habits will combat the "Bugs" that are ever being promulgated as "fear factors"!
Stay Healthy, and Be Well!

Swine Flu and Essential Oils

It seems as though this "story" has not disappeared from our headlines. And with the advent of the "flu season" on the horizon, we thought it would be worth sharing the information again. Take a moment re-familiarize yourself with this useful information.
This is useful information for the "Swine Flu" as well as the "Flu" in general.

Swine Flu and Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils
The recent outbreak of swine flu is a concern that needs to be given attention.
A few details that should be considered.
1-Pigs are not bad.
2-Factory farming and over vaccination IS bad!
Some precautions that can be taken;
We need to use good, regular hygiene habits to help keep our immune system healthy. We need good eating habits. And most of all, we need to RELAX
Essential Oils are excellent at preventing infections. It is a fact that bacteria hides in fat tissue and anti-pharmacologicals cannot get into the fat tissue. Essential Oils are the only intervention that can get into the fat tissue.
There are several Oil blends you can use to assist you;
For a BODY RUB: Blend 3 teaspoons of organic oil and 2 drops of Essential Oil
For a BODY SPRAY: You can put 2 drops of each in an 8oz. squirt bottle with distilled water.

To help breakdown mucus and and bronchial infections, some Essential Oils to consider are:
Thyme; Historically it has been used in fighting infectious illnesses by the ancient Greeks and has also been used to fight respiratory problems.
Eucalyptus; Some of the properties of this Oil include, being an expectorant, an anti-infectious an anti-inflammatory aid. It helps reduce inflammation of the nasal mucus membranes as well.
Hyssop; Some of the constituents of this Oil include being anti-oxident, anti-viral and anti-infectious. As well as having astringent and decongestent properties.
Ravensare Aromatica; This Oil, besides having properties similar to those listed above also have antibiotic and antiviral functions.

A Morning "Fable"

A Children's Story : but not really . . .
by Gwyneth McNeil

"Your sky is bright!"
"I know," she said,
"It's the only way I know how to make it."
"And your moon is very, very soft."
"Well, that's because it's new yet, and young. Like you."
"Will you always be here?" I asked, hoping, but not daring speak the hope
for fear that words spoken would dash it all.
"Oh yes," she said, "at least, as long as you are. You care for me. When I am cared for, I live.
And when I live, you will always have a place to grow."
And then she smiled. And the air twinkled. But only I saw it. For this was a very private twinkling, as all " first twinkling’s " are.
And I relaxed, heaving a sigh deep into her holding.
And I slept, as she told me of ages past and all the wonderful nows and possible futures.
And sleeping, I awoke.
"Good morning," she said.
"Oh, it is! Oh yes, it really is!"
And I jumped, and I ran, and I breathed, and I shouted, and I sang!
She breathed, too.
She rested then, and made ready the ground for another's awakening.
Auh-Om, and Hallelujah !

The Hyphen ~

The Hyphen is described in the dictionary as: a punctuation mark (-) used at the end of a line when a word must be divided or, to link the parts of a compound word or phrase.
Use of the Hyphen has been used in many ways over the years to explain an idea or concept in an abridged form.
Be-ing for instance, is used to describe a "State of where you are, here and now", to "BE".
Or as in Dis-ease when describing an Ill-ness. Rather than a physical symptom, a mental state of be-ing ill at ease. If one were to look within they may find what it is they are not at ease with and upon finding the cause, an internal healing can begin and the lack of ease or the Dis-ease will naturally begin to subside.
If we were to begin to look at some of the many ways a Hyphen could help explain many of the other words we have used without it, there would be explanations of so many of the questions about our life!
The "One" that stood out above all to me, to cause me to put this in word rather than thought though was this...
To Re-Member: To once again become a "Member" of the "One" or of the "All". We All are individuals living out our lives as we desire. But we all are at the same time One with each other, part of the All that is!
If we were all to Re-Member ourselves to the greater community of "Spirit" would begin a Healing on this earth on a scale never seen before in our Story!

BEDDING: To keep dust mites at bay spray your bedding every morning with a blend of Eucalyptus and Lemongrass in a large spray bottle of distilled water, safe for pet's beds as well.

Wash bedding weekly in HOT water and spin Lemongrass through your fabric softener cycle or Downy Ball, your linens will come out smelling wonderful - and natural - not synthetic.As far as repellants go, when you go into the woods and fields, put a little lavender or lemongrass around your ankles, wrists, and waist-band. You won't have to worry about chiggers or ticks (or Lyme Disease or Rocky Mountain Spotted Tick Fever). Sage or thyme would work too, but might irritate your skin so put it on your pant cuffs and shirt sleeves. As for your pets, you can put oils such as Purification, around their necks and backs, but watch to keep oils from around their eyes.

Perfumes; The Natural Way!

"Natures" Fragrances and Perfumes!

Here is some information and a few Blends for Perfumes you can wear without fear of harming Yourself, Others, or,
Our Home; This planet on which we live.
Essential Oils are given a "Note" if you will do describe their place on a "Fragrance Chart".
A Top note for instance, is a fragrance that is smelled first and fade

s first.
A Middle note is a fragrance that lasts as you would expect, a semi-extended period of time and is not usually a consideration in a blend.

Tea's for All Occasions

Jasmine Tea: There is a wide variety of Jasmine Tea's. And we will explore a few of them in this issue!
Jasmine Tea (Also Jasmine scented tea) is honored as the most fragrant and popular Chinese tea in the world. This tea is light, delicate, slightly sweet and every cup comes with a distinctive fresh jasmine fragrance. Jasmine tea is readily available in Chinese markets, and it can often be obtained from big grocery stores or specialty tea shops as well. Many people may be familiar with jasmine tea because it is a frequent offering at Chinese restaurants.
The jasmine flowers are harvested during the day and stored in a cool place until night. During the night, the flowers bloom with full fragrance. The flowers are layered over the tea leaves during the scenting process. The quality of jasmine tea is determined by the quality of green tea used as its base and the effectiveness of the scenting.
Brewing Jasmine tea can depend on the type.
Let's start with Black Jasmine:
Step1: Put your water on to boil.
Step 2: Add 1 tsp. per cup of black jasmine tea to your infuser or to your teapot. You can strain the tea if you don't want to use an infuser.
Step 3: Pour the boiling water into your teapot and then put the lid on your teapot.
Step 4: Allow your black jasmine tea to steep at least 3 minutes, but no longer than 5 minutes, or it may be bitter.
Step 5: Pour the now hot, but not boiling water into your teapot. Put the lid on your teapot.
Step 6: Strain the black tea and jasmine blooms out of your tea, if you didn't use an infuser or remove your infuser.
Step 7: Pour your tea into tea cups and drink!
And then there is White Jasmine:
Step 1: Put your water on to boil.
Step 2: Pour a bit of the boiling water into your teapot then toss it. This is to warm your teapot.
Step 3: Take the pot off after it starts boiling and allow it to sit for 1 minute.
Step 4; Add 1 tsp. of white jasmine tea per cup to your teapot. You can add the tea directly to the pot or use an infuser.
Step 5: Pour the now hot, but not boiling water into your teapot. Put the lid on your teapot.
Step 6: Allow the white jasmine tea to steep for 5 minutes but no longer than 8 minutes.
Step 7: Strain your white jasmine tea if necessary, or remove the infuser.
Step 8: Pour your white jasmine tea into tea cups and drink.
Next up, Green Jasmine Tea:
Step 1: Put your water on to boil.
Step 2: Pour some of the boiling water into your pot then toss it. This is to warm the pot.
Step 3: Take your water off the heat as soon as it begins to boil. Let it sit for 2 minutes off of the heat.
Step 4: Add your green jasmine tea directly to the pot or to an infuser that you put in your teapot. You'll want about 1 1/2 tsp. of green jasmine tea per tea cup.
Step 5: Pour the now cooler but still hot water into your teapot.
Step 6: Allow the tea to steep for at least 1 minute, but not longer than 2 minutes or it can become bitter.
Step 7: Strain your tea, or remove the infuser.
Step 8: Pour your tea into tea cups and drink.

And last, but (as is always the case...) Not Least,
Oolong Jasmine Tea:
Step 1: Put your water on to boil.
Step 2: Add a bit of the boiling water to your teapot then toss it. This is the warm the teapot.
Step 3: Add your oolong jasmine tea to your pot or an infuser. You want 1 tsp. of tea per cup.
Step 4: Take your boiling water from the heat.
Step 5: Pour the boiling water into the teapot.
Step 6: Allow your oolong jasmine tea to steep at least 2 minutes but not longer than 3 minutes.
Step 7: Pour, and Drink!
Yes, There are many similarities in the brewing process of each of these, but to give any of them a short shrift. would just seem an inappropriate way of treating any of them!
Enjoy!!!

Licorice "The Herb, The Tea, and its Benefits"

Licorice: (Glycyrrhiza glabra ) is a flavorful herb that has been used in food and medicinal remedies for thousands of years. Also known as "sweet root," licorice root contains a compound that is roughly 50 times sweeter than sugar. Licorice root has been used in both Eastern and Western medicine to treat a variety of illnesses ranging from the common cold to liver disease. This herb has long been valued as a demulcent (soothing, coating agent) and expectorant (rids phlegm and mucous from the respiratory tract) and continues to be used by health care professionals today to relieve respiratory ailments (such as allergies, bronchitis, colds, sore throats, and tuberculosis), stomach problems (including heartburn from reflux), inflammatory disorders, skin diseases, stress relief, as a laxative, and liver problems.
Emerging studies are beginning to suggest that licorice may also play a role in the treatment of heart disease. In one recent study, people with high cholesterol experienced a significant reduction in total cholesterol, LDL ("bad") cholesterol, and triglyceride levels after taking licorice root extracts for 1 month. The extract also reduced systolic blood pressure by 10%, although licorice may increase blood pressure in some individuals. These measures returned to their previous, elevated levels when the participants stopped taking the licorice supplements. Licorice root extract has also been shown to reduce the risk of atherosclerosis "hardening of the arteries".
Preliminary studies also suggest that licorice may play a role in the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). One early study of only 3 people with HIV suggested that intravenous glycyrrhizin may prevent replication of HIV, but larger studies have yet to duplicate these findings.
Another recent study found that a preparation of licorice may reduce body fat. Fifteen normal-weight subjects consumed licorice for 2 months (3.5 g a day). Body fat mass was measured before and after treatment. Licorice was able to reduce body fat mass and to suppress the hormone aldosterone. Another study found that a topical preparation of glycyrrhetinic acid (a component of licorice) was able to reduce the thickness of fat on the thigh in human subjects.
Licorice can be taken in the following forms:
·Dried root: 1 - 5 g as an infusion or decoction (boiled), three times daily
·Licorice 1:5 tincture: 2-5 ml, three times daily
·Standardized extract: 250-500 mg, three times daily, standardized to contain 20% glycyrrhizinic acid
·DGL extract: 0.4 - 1.6 g, three times daily, for peptic ulcer
·DGL extract 4:1: chew 300 - 400 mg, three times daily 20 minutes before meals, for peptic ulcer
Precautions:
The use of herbs is a time-honored approach to strengthening the body and treating disease. Herbs, however, contain components that can trigger side effects and that can interact with other herbs, supplements, or medications. For these reasons, herbs should be taken with care, preferably under the supervision of a health care provider in the field of botanical medicine.

Fragrances vs. Essential Oils

Fragrance:
The question posed is that of the fragrances that we love so dearly. When we speak of fragrances the first thought that comes to most is that of the perfumes/colognes, shampoos, everyday household cleaning products etc... The list is endless.
The desire to use them to do everything from cleaning to help with emotional Well Be-ing is as natural to use as the air we breath.
The problem "lies" in what is considered a fragrance! Or what the FDA allows to be used in the products marketed in this country as a fragrance.
There are potentially over 1,000 "ingredients" used by the commercial perfume industry alone that could cause harmful effects to those that use the products. The European Union has banned at least that many from their marketplaces while our government has banned as few as eight. This is allowed because, all the perfume companies need to do to get around the FDA's standards is to call the ingredients a "trade secret" allowing them to use illegal ingredients without the government doing so much as to even blink an eye.
Among many of the harmful effects of these "secret ingredients" and potentially the most harmful, is that they can reach though the membrane barrier in the mind into t

he "Limbic System" where our memories, our cognitive skills, the regulation of our nervous system, blood pressure and heart rate are controlled among many other other functions important to our Well Be-ing.
Damage to this system can cause adverse effects such as vascular degeneration of the brain, damage to the spinal cord and peripheral nerves, hyperactivity, depression, mood swings, seizures.... the list is long!
The industry has always stated that they would clean up there products. The problem is that they are allowed to self-regulate this "clean up"

Vs.
Essential Oils:
These Oils have been around since the dawning of this beautiful planet we call home! They were here long before the first "Modern Doctors" were given diplomas and told they were ready to go out among the people and "heal" them.
And yes they do have wonderful healing properties! They have been shown to raise our "vibration level" with just the faintest of an inhalation.

But for healing the spirit? They too reach the Limbic System, but as pure Essence's with only the properties that "Spirit" intended! They have been shown to "help" improve the very same symptoms the fragrance industry is harming with all the additives they call "trade secrets"!

Oh and by the way. Did we happen to mention that these oils "AROMA'S heal the Heart, Mind and Soul all the while bringing the true fragrance's of the earth to our daily lives!

Yes, They Smell good too!!!
Lavender, Orange, Wintergreen, Eucalyptus and Tea Tree. Just these basic oils alone can bring about the emotional Well Be-ing we can all use. and with emotional health, can our Physical Health be far behind?

Pure Essential Oils are just that! PURE! No "additives" no "trade secrets"!

The Dangers of Coffee and Caffeine

The health problems which caffeine can cause could fill an entire library. Not to mention enough popular journals and medical reports to paper the White House... Inside And Out!
Problems associated with with this "Drug" include accelerated aging, a weakening of the immune system, impairing digestion, and causing blood sugar fluctuations which contribute to weight gain, and mood disorders!
There are more than 208 acids in coffee that contribute to indigestion and acid imbalance. This results in the buildup of toxic waste, cardiovascular disease, auto immune disorders, arthritis, and rheumatism. Uric acid produced by the breakdown of caffeine can cause kidney stones and gout, and can aggravate prostate conditions.
Caffeine and the acids in coffee also inhibit absorption of B vitamins and cause urinary excretion of calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and trace minerals - all of which are essential for good health.

Women that drink coffee are more subject to osteoporosis and anemia, that lead to both fatigue and illness. And this is just scratching the surface of associated dangers to coffee!

That's CAFFEINE folks! Whether it be in coffee, cola, or any other beverage for that matter. It's hardly something you would want to be pouring into your body by the multiple cup or bottlefuls each day, is it?
