			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For several years now, I have struggled with terrible foot pain.  I had surgery on one foot over three years ago.  I can always tell when rain is coming and can&#8217;t stand on my tippy toes like I used to.  The other foot has a torn tendon in it, probably from over compensating for the surgery foot.  Many days I would walk around the house like a 90-year old lady.  I lost interest in exercising and doing activities with the children.  I gave away all my beautiful heels&#8230;. all 150 of them! (Yes, I think I had a problem.)  I had accepted the fact I would just be in pain for the rest of my life.</p>
<p>Along came ESSENTIAL OILS!  I have one called Panaway from Young Living.  It is supposed to be used to help with pain and sore muscles.  I figured I would give it a shot, not really expecting anything.  I mixed the Panaway with some coconut oil and rubbed on my feet while watching TV.  My feet were having one of their really bad days.  After about an hour I got up to get some things done.  I could not believe how my feet felt.  I had NO PAIN!  In fact I had no pain for over a week.  I went walking with a friend after school and some pain came back the next day, but I put the Panaway on again and my feet feel great!!  I am looking forward to more walks and increasing my distance!!  More importantly, I am really looking forward to feet with no pain!  Maybe even some new heels and some dancing, on my way to a better life!!!!</p>
<p>Do you have questions about how essential oisl can help you create a better life?  Feel free to contact me!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Currently, I have an 18-year old, senior in high school&#8230;. So to say there is some stress in her life right now with graduation right around the corner, deciding on college, keeping grades up, holding down a job, and staying active in the things she enjoys, is an understatement.  I miss the days when the most stressful thing in her life was deciding which Disney movie to watch (although that can be tricky still at 18).  Helping her manage the movie collection was much easier than real life.  There are so many times when I feel helpless.</p>
<p>Let me introduce you to my new best friend! Stress Away essential oil blend by Young Living.  Earlier this week my daughter was feeling overwhelmed and had just begun a huge art project that I was very concerned about how she would handle it.  With the combination of her perfectionism and limited patience I was worried it was going to become a nightmare project.  As always, I kept thinking about how I could help her and yet still foster her independence.  Then it hit me!  I had just received my starter kit from Young Living a few days earlier.  My daughter was very leary of any benefits they might have, thinking I had become some crazy witch doctor!!  As she began working, I quietly got my diffuser and set it up in her room using a few drops of the Stress Away blend.  I didn&#8217;t say another word.  A while later I ventured down to see how she was doing.  She was happily working, doing a fantastic job with intense detail and I asked if the aroma from the diffuser was okay or did she want me to turn it off&#8230;.</p>
<p>You know what she said??  She told me she really liked it and I could honestly see a change in her face.  She did look relaxed even though she was intent on what she was doing!  She did not give up out of frustration which has happened some many times in the past.</p>
<p>Stress Away definitely had a positive effect on my daughter and hopefully is helping her to live a better life!</p>
<p>We are going to see what we can do with the oils to help wth her headaches!  Check back soon to see how we do!</p>
<p>If you are interested in trying out some essential oils for yourself&#8230;.</p>
<p>Click &gt; <a href="https://beta.youngliving.com/vo/#/signup/start?sponsorid=2586030&amp;enrollerid=2586030&amp;type=member&amp;isocountrycode=US&amp;isolanguagecode=EN">Buy Essential Oils</a></p>
<p>This site will allow you to become just a regular retail customer of Young Living or you can also choose to become a wholesale distributor.  This does NOT mean you are expected to sell anything.  All it means is you get to buy at a discount!!!</p>
<p>Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.  I look forward to building a better life with you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The fork in the road&#8230;.. I recently came to one of those in my life.  I had the choice to continue with the life I had and accept that this was as good as it gets, or I could take control and make a better life&#8230; a life I would be proud of at the end of my days, a life that included joy, health, and happiness.  There are so many things that are included in that decision.  One of them is the choice to live healthy and bring good things into my life.  One thing I am very excited about is the introduction of ESSENTIAL OILS into my life and my world.  The more I read, the more I know these oils can help me make so many of the positive changes in my life that will help me become a healthier person.  I decided to focus this blog on my journey with essential oils.  I plan to share with you as I learn and experience the wonderful uses and benefits of essential oils.</p>
<p>That fork in the road gave me the choice to continue to live my life the way others wanted me to, or I could decide to live for me and in doing so, be a better person to those around me.  This is my chance to do something for me!!  I hope I can inspire you to live for you!!</p>
<p>Check back soon for my first update!!</p>
<p>Cheers!</p>
<p>Jill Ann</p>
