Oola

I started on my journey of health and wellness so long ago that I am really uncertain of when it was.  I was trained as a nurse, but still felt an overwhelming pull towards natural routes to wellness and taking into account mind, body, and soul - not just covering up symptoms.

As with any journey I love to learn new things along the way.  My favorite way to learn things is reading!  I absolutely love to read!  Soaking in concepts and Revelations through the written word engulfs me.  I am totally a "marker" also.  I love to write in my books, make notes, highlight, star, and underline!  The more colors the better!!  Needless to say, I do not prefer library books for this reason.

For the year 2018 I decided to challenge myself to read at LEAST 2 books a month.  Well, I am a bit behind that goal but have read some of the greatest books so far!  One of my ABSOLUTE favorites is the Oola for Women book.  The ideas in this book have challenged my way of thinking and doing life.  After all, if you are going to do something you might as well do it well!

Here is a link for the book:

After reading this book I have been challenged to "balance" out the seven key areas of life to have a healthier overall lifestyle.  Insert this blog.  This blog is my journey through these revelations.  What I am learning, what I am changing, and what I am challenged with.  Join me!!

Sonya Jean

This is a song I wrote for my sister and few years ago.  Here is part of her story that I told in another post:   My sister's story Sonya Jean I wish I had one more day, I wish I had just one more day. If someone had told me that this was the way; I would have wished for just one more day. The good Lord giveth, and He taketh away, I wish I had just one more day. Such short time on Earth, you had to live; And in that time you had so much to give. A mother, sister and a daughter, A spirit filled with fun and laughter. As sickness came to take you away, I held tight to every day. I wish I had one more day, I wish I had just one more day. If someone had told me that this was the way; I would have wished for just one more day. The good Lord giveth, and He taketh away, I wish I had just one more day. So many things I should have said, Sitting there beside your bed. The most important we covered, The day you prayed and Jesus ...

Music

Music!  Just the thought makes me smile.  I come from a hugely talented family of musicians.  From the earliest of days I clearly remember music and instruments being a vital part of every family gathering.  Music just was!  It brought us together, it was fun, and it was what we did.  We always called it "pickin and grinnin". As I watch the last of that family generation fade into memories I am overwhelmed by the thought of the music "dying" with them.  There are very few of us in the younger generation that can play music like my dad's generation in our family.  It will be greatly missed when they are gone but the appreciation for music, family, love and good old times will always remain. I blame my dad for my deep love of all things music.  Although I truly cannot play music (or sing really), I love and appreciate so many kinds of music.  A song can transport me to so many places, it can speak to my sould, help me worship, tell ...

Why Young Living

Many people ask me why or how I began my journey with Young Living.  It definately was not by accident.  God had a plan and a purpose.  My husband had chronic severe migraines.  Sometimes he would have as many as twenty six or more debilitating migraines a month.  This is unbearable for anyone but especially unbearable for a self employed man who lives in a 1000 square foot home with his wife and five children.  Life was exhausting and hard. We went to many doctors throughout NY, MS, VT and CA looking for answers.  We tried all the migraine medicines, accupuncture, accupressure, chiropractic, nutrition, botox, special glasses, you name it!  Nothing worked.  We were at our wits end and had a medicine cabinet so full of drugs that my husband seemed like a zombie. I was fed up.  I knew that there had to be a better way but wasn't sure what that was.  Regardless, I knew that taking as many drugs as he was, my husband's body no lo...
