doTERRA Oils, Cost Per Drop


In case you've been thinking that essential oils are expensive, consider this. . .

Essential oils positively effect every cell in the body and are completely safe with no negative side-effects. If you are out of balance and toxic doTERRA essential oils will cause your body to detox which can be uncomfortable and look similar to "being allergic to the oils". However, if you keep using the oils they will cleanse and heal your body and once it cleans up and becomes balanced, the "symptons" will go away - and you'll be a lot healthier and feel a whole lot better.

doTERRA essential oils are certified pure which means they are very potent and you usually only need to use a drop or two. And essential oils are so versitle that one condition can be treated by a variety of oils, and one oil can effectively treat a wide variety of conditions.

After using doTERRA essential oils for more than two years I can wholeheartedly say that the cost is very minimal and the benefits are PRICELESS!!

why just medicate when you can heal disease at its root!

I recently attended a birthday party where two of the guests were teenage sisters on wheat-free diets. These young ladies had been told by their doctor that they were wheat-intolerent, and in addition to needing to stay away from all wheat products, they were on medication to help with the problem.

Now, I know enough about wheat allergies, gluton intolerace and celliac disease to know that they stem from an overgrowth of Candida yeast and a resulting overloaded and underactive (suppressed) digestive tract. And while wheat can be extremely irritating, it is not the cause of the problem. (I'd have said something but we were at a family gathering and my opinions are not valued there, so I chose to keep my thoughts to myself).

Still, I couldn't help but observe what the girls who were so conciencious about not eating wheat, chose to eat. They ate large helpings of meat with sweet barbeque sauce on it. A veggie dish loaded with melted cheese. Desert. And 2 and 3 sodas respectively!!

If you don't know much about Candida and what feeds it this might not alarm you. But if you have an understanding of Candida and how it affects the body, you know that yeast thrives on sugar, dairy, and soft drinks. And these foods make all of the symptoms it causes (such as wheat intolerance and so forth) worse!

So, here is my irritation with the medical world. And I know what I'm talking about because I've suffered from an overgrowth of Candida yeast my entire life. For the first thirty six years it was like this. . . I'd eat "normal" foods including a lot of bread, cheese, and sweets (that's what I grew up on and liked :) and then I'd get a fungal infection under my nails, and/or a painful bladder infection, and/or a case of itchly vaginal yeast. Then I'd go to the doctor who'd write out prescriptions for antibiotics and/or cortizone cream. I'd take the meds, and for a while the conditions would clear up.

And then, the same old problems would always return with a vengence a couple of weeks or months down the road.

Never once did the doctor explain to me that my diet might be causing the problem. Nor did he seem concerned that I was taking antibiotics on a regular basis. He just wrote me prescription after prescription. (Is it possible that he didn't know about Candida yeast, and that antibiotics actually make it much worse?)

My main problem with doctors who merely prescribe medicine for everything, is that is MEDICINE CANNOT FIX HEALTH PROBLEMS! It can only suppress them.

Not to mention the fact that medical professionals routinely poison continuous connective tissue (tissue that's connected to everything else in the body) as a form of treatment, or perform surgery to cut it out, rather than support it by giving it what it needs to cleanse and self-heal, which is another story for another blog. . .

Thankfully I now know a lot about yeast. And so I make it a point to drink plenty of pure water and eat lots of alkaline foods like raw greens, and avoid dairy, refined grains and sugars, and soda pop etc. I also take digestive enzymes and probiotics and other supplements on a regular basis to help keep my system balanced.

As a result, I'm never bothered with fungal or yeast infections anymore, and the only time I get bladder infections is when I'm dehydrated or have eaten too many acidic foods. When I do feel poorly I simply drink a lot more water and take herbs and essential oils etc. (including a melaleuca, oregano, lemon and cinnamon combo which kill yeast, and uva ursi which cleans and nourishes the bladder and kidneys) and I'm able to quickly get my body back in a feel-good mode.

If you are experiencing health problems it is simply an indication that something is out of balance. You are either toxic or undernourished, or both. And what your body needs is most likely not medicine or surgery but cleansing, and good nutritional supplements and a diet overhaul. If you are wheat or gluton intollerant it would do you a world of good to go on a yeast-free diet (or a raw food diet) for awhile, and give your gut a break so it can heal.

Did you know that most people who go on raw food/juice (yeast-free) diets are able to quickly reverse and heal diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, and even cancer, as long as they're not too advanced?

It's a "scientifically proven" fact that Candida yeast is behind virtually all health problems, including chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, all digestive diseases, all autoimmune diseases, and cancer. Rather than wait for symptoms to show up and then go to the doctor for treatment, it makes sense to take action now and rid your body of yeast (treat disease at it's root) and change your diet and overall lifestyle so you can keep yeast away for good!

TO KEEP YEAST AWAY, AVOID:
Medicines (drugs), sugar, dairy products, processed and refined foods (all junk food), fast food, processed juices, soft drinks, energy drinks, alcohol, coffee, tobacco, etc.

YOU CAN EAT:
Raw or lightly steamed veggetables, especially greens (avoid starchy veggies)
Some fruits - apples, berries, grapefruits, lemons (other fruits are too sugary)
Lean proteins - antibiotic- and hormone- free meats and eggs
Small amounts of whole grains, brown rice, beans and legumes - preferably sprouted (once yeast is gone)
Raw nuts and seeds (raw nut butters) in limited amounts
Unsweetened organic coconut, rice and oat milk
Goat-milk feta cheese
Good-quality plain yogurt (like Stoneyfield Farm, Brown Cow)
Vegan mayonaise (Vegenaise)
Avage nectar, Stevia, and xylitol (don't overdo it)
Herbs and spices!
Bragg amino acids

autoship redemption!

I am a doTERRA wholesale business partner, and as such, I have been placing $150.00 orders on four separate doTERRA autoships every month for the past two years- and consistently using doTERRA essential oils and other awesome wellness products- no wonder I feel SO GOOD. (My mom, daughter and friend stopped buying product so they let me order on their accounts :) This means at the end of the first year I got $240.00 in free oils, per autoship. Then, because I continued to purchase at least $100.00 worth of oils etc. each month, I qualified for 30% back in free product points. (By purchasing $150.00 PV each month, we all qualified for our "power of 3" bonuses :)

So today, for the second time (I cashed in last year too), I redeemed my points on three of the autoships. And here is what I got. For FREE!

Purchasing doTERRA products through a monthly autoship is a no-brainer. The oils were so heavy that they tore the bag :) Here's an itemized list of what I got:
2 Family Physician Kits
3 Clear Skin (new oil blend)
1 Deep Blue roll-on
1 Deep Blue (5 oz)
1 Past Tense
2 Melissa (new oil)
1 Helichrysm
2 Frankincense
1 Oregano
2 Birch
2 Peppermint
3 Patchouli
3 Bergamot
3 Lemon
4 Lime (new oil - yum!)
1 Citrus Bliss
------------------- And the retail price without tax. . .
$1,566.27
(FREE for me :)
Notice that I got 2 Family Physician Kits (10 oils each- including frankincense and Deep Blue :), plus 2 Melissas' (115.00 each, wholesale), 1 Helichrysm ($75,00 wholesale), 2 Deep Blue ($32.00 and $64.00, wholesale) and 2 Frankincense ($70.00 each, wholesale). These are all quite expensive oils. But they have amazing healing properties and you only need to use a drop so they're well-worth the price.
Sometimes people ask me how I can afford to buy oils and supplements etc. each month, and I say, "with doTERRA, I can't afford not to!!"
Not only does their awesome product line keep me and my family well and doctor-free, but doTERRA also gives me a very generous pay-back for buying and using their oils and supplements and such!
And just think, I still have over $300.00 worth of unused rewards points left on my forth autoship. . .
Not to mention the fact that lots of other people LOVE doTERRA as much as I do, and quite a few are on my team, so each month I earn enough in monthly commisions to MORE than pay for my autoships in the first place. No wonder I get more excited about doTERRA as time goes on!

Show me another company that's so generous. . . THANKS doTERRA.

doctor or doctor mom?

Years ago I wholeheartedly believed that pharmacuetical and over-the-counter medicines were necessary for healing. I would never have considered taking herbs for a serious illness. Until prescription and over-the-counter medicine stopped working - and my doctor admitted that he didn't have any solutions.

Only then was I willing to give herbs and essential oils a try.

Once I tried herbal medicine it didn't take me long to switch my thinking. For seventeen years, now, I havn't been to a doctor or taken conventional medicine - I haven't needed to because I've been able to heal everything that's come along with essential oils or herbs, or some other form of natural medicine!

There are some obvious differences between conventional medicine and herbal medicine that, I think, speak for themselves.


CONVENTIONAL MEDICINE
1. Medicines are patented and branded and tend to be controlled substances; they can be very expensive
2. Medicine cannot pass through cell walls and does not have the ability to affect viruses
3. Most medicine is toxic to the body; come with long labels warning of dangerous side effects - medicines can not heal but merely suppress symptoms and drive them deep into the body
4. Medications often leave a person feeling drowsy or drugged
5. Medicine typically performs an isolated function
6. Medicine often mimics herbs; it's common for pharmaceutical companies to use herbs as a base for medicine
1. Medicinal plants are not branded or controlled, in fact, simple herbs are inexpensive and effective medicine that can often be home-grown - and pure essential oils are very affordable (see below)
2. Herbs/essential oils are lipophilic which means they can easily pass through cell walls and destroy viruses and also cleanse and nourish cells (viruses cannot live in the presence of pure clove and cinnamon essential oils)
3. Herbs and essential oils are very balancing to the body; the vast majority of herbs are extremely safe and versitile and they create a cleansing environment that encourages the body to self-heal
4. Herbal medicine typically makes a person feel sharper, clearer, and more alive
5. Herbs and essential oils can perform a broad range of beneficial functions
6. Herbs never copy or immitate another substance


Pure essential oils are plant extracts that possess unprecedented healing qualities. They are 50-70 times more potent than herbs, and they are the safest and most effective type of medicine. Scientific research is showing that pure essential oils are superior to over-the-counter and pharmaceutical medication in both safety and efficacy.

Essential oils are known to heal conditions medicine can't, and using them on a regular basis will strengthen your immune system. Pure essential oils provide the easiest, most effective, and least expensive way to manage your health.

Consider that on an average, a 15 ml. (250 drops) bottle of essential oil costs less than a co-pay for a doctor's visit or a co-pay for a prescription and it can be used multiple times to treat multiple conditions. Pure essential oils are so potent that you only need a drop or two.
