Children and Supplements?
Do your children take supplements? What do you look for in a supplement? Currently my kids are taking a multivitamin, B-12, Vitamin C, and a pro-biotic. After reading several articles recently I think I will be adding an EFA (Essential Fatty Acid) supplement as well. Here is one of the articles:
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/12/11/health/research/11children.html?_r=1
http://www.cbn.com/health/NaturalHealth/drsears_qanda.aspx#1
(You can scroll down to the section where he discusses a child's brain needing fish oil)
While I do believe in trying to get most of your vitamins and minerals from whole foods it is almost impossible to get all the vitamins and minerals this way any longer. Our soils have become so depleted of nutrients that it has effected our food. That is where the supplements come in.
When shopping for supplements you need to do your homework. Do not just run out and buy the Flintstones because the kids like the bottle. Brands like that are filled with sugar and garbage. You want to make sure the supplements are GMP Certified and have a Purity Certification as well. These are 3rd party organizations that test supplements as they are not FDA regulated.

Support Your Local Economy
Times are tough for all of us. Are you making any attempts to support your local economy? Here is a diet based around community support and local agriculture. I challenge you to give this diet a whirl for 60 days. Eating locally will lead you to eat unprocessed whole foods that are in season. By doing so you will not only support local community agriculture, and the ecological footprint but you will help your health and your waistline.

Are you eating for the season?
With the clock's turning back this weekend I make a note to check my in-season chart before shopping. Do you? Our bodies both crave and benefit from our foods being locally grown and in season. Further more I recently read in the Integrative Nutrition , Feed Your Hunger for Health & Happiness book that eating foods out of season can make you more susceptible to colds, flu, and other illnesses.
Here are two sites to help you find what is locally grown in your state:
http://www.sustainabletable.org/shop/seasonal/
http://localfoods.about.com/od/searchbystate/State_Seasonal_Produce_Guides.
When eating locally, in season, and organic (Don't want those pesky pesticides) it is best to shop and support your local farmer's market. See if they have a CSA available! You can find local farmer's markets in your area at:

The Orgasmic Diet??
Did you know eating a low fat vegetarian diet with tofu and whole grains could zap your libido?? Very interesting! I just listened to a lecture by Marrena Lindberg. She reviews what foods can be lowering your libido and what you can do you correct the situation. The diet is based on high dosages of good quality Omega 3 Fish Oil as the main component. Read more about what she has to say:
http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/excerpt-orgasmic-diet
Opinions?
She also suggest the diet may work for women with fertility issues, depression, ADHD, autism, and mood swings.

My journey...
I have considered myself a health nut/buff for some years now. It was only natural when I went on to become a Certified Nutrition & Wellness Counselor. I have enjoyed helping people make healthier lifestyle choices, lose weight, end emotional eating, and more.
I am so excited to start my new journey as a student at The Institute for Integrative Nutrition! I have some what patiently waited to enroll in this school for over 5 years. Becoming a Certified Holistic Health Coach will empower me with more knowledge to help my clients.
I love that the school focuses on bio-individuality. No 2 people are alike so why should their diet's be?? Stay tuned as I move along this journey and share life changing information with all of you. If you have any questions along the way just let me know!

Sugar Alternative
I have a simple answer to sugar alternatives....JUST DON'T USE THEM! Why take the chance? Companies will tell you that no proof has been found for these awful substances to cause cancer in humans however, they have been know to cause cancer in rats.
In addition these are some of the side effects that have been found in humans using aspartame:
Aspartame is of particular concern because it contains phenylalanine (50%), aspartic acid (40%) and methanol (10%), three well-recognized neurotoxins.
The following symptoms have been associated with the consumption of
aspartame:3
Please read your labels! Aspartame is a common ingredient in children's yogurt and drinks. We have many natural alternatives available to us. Recipes available as well. If you would like more information contact us at: Soulistic.Health@yahoo.com

Blue Tansy (Tanacetum annuum) helps cleanse the liver and lymphatic system helping one to overcome anger and negative emotions promoting a feeling of self-control.
Frankincense (Boswellia carteri) is considered a holy anointing oil in the Middle East and has been used in religious ceremonies for thousands of years. Stimulates the limbic part of the brain, elevating the mind and helping to overcome stress and despair. It is used in European medicine to combat depression.
Spruce (Picea mariana) opens and releases emotional blocks, fostering a sense of balance and grounding. Traditionally, it was believed to possess the frequency of prosperity.
Carrier Oil: Sweet Almond (Prunus dulcis)
Application:
- Diffuse, directly inhale, or add 2-4 drops to bath water.

Ruta VaLa a must have oil!
RutaVaLa Roll-On
Gary shared with us how effective RutaVaLa is for "Stress Allergies" i.e "maladaptive stress syndrome": The body produces more acid in a stressed state, thereby raising cortisol levels, taxing the adrenal glands, decreasing hormone function, including pituitary and thyroid function this leads to a decrease in digestive enzymes, This causes many digestive issues including food allergies, IBS (irritable Bowel syndrome). There is NO disconnect between anything that happens in the body. If the mind is stressed it affects every cell of the body. This disruption of body systems leads to hypoglycemia, insulin resistance, candida overgrowth, pre-diabetes.
Rutavala Reduces Stress Allergies! Applying RutaVaLa roll-on to the brain stem (or 4-5 drops of RutaVaLa from the bottle) will reduce anxiety levels in 60-120 seconds by modulating brain function.
RutaVaLa is the most powerful anti-depressant in our arsenal of oils!
It reduces cortisol levels, has calming & balancing effect. Very effective for restless leg syndrome, hypertension. Applying to carotid artery (along neck) allows for quickest absorption and can quickly get into the brain to bring balance.
Applying to brain stem of overstressed adults and children before bed helps improve sleep patterns and can help with clarity during the day.
Children Who Have Been Vaccinated
Especially those suffering from Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, bi-polar, dyslexia or other conditions associated with vaccine damage greatly benefit from the use of RutaVaLa. It helps to regenerate the neurites that were destroyed in the brain by the vaccine. It stimulates the regeneration of neurites and myelin tissue.
It is also effective in treating bi-polar or manic-depression. Bi-Polar, depression, asperger's, touret's are associated with mineral deficiency and hormone imbalance. The use of RutaVaLa brings alpha and beta waves of the brain into harmony. The use of Mineral Essence and hormone balancing products such as Estro, Progessence Plus, Endogize or SclarEssence can enhance the effects and bring even better results.
Sleep Disorders
If you have trouble sleeping i.e. cannot sleep at least 5-6 hours without awakening apply RutaVaLa to brain stem before bed. If you tend to already sleep soundly for 7-8 hours, you may not need to use it before bed or to use less. Feeling drowsy upon awakening means you need to use less. If this occurs: Upon awakening apply Frankincense with Clarity or Brain Power or Peppermint. The brain will become clearer. When studying use Brain Power or Peppermint. This will help tremendously. Experiment to see if your child has improved test scores using the above oils.
Candida Can Cause Bi-Polar
Candida proliferates in gut lining, this leads to leaky-gut syndrome and then many are diagnosed with IBS. The candida roots in gut and bowel gases are allowed to leach into blood stream. This is like the person being on ammonia! This causes difficulty in thinking, memory loss. RutaVaLa helps balance the brain, bringing peace of mind.
Ruta Decreases Pain for Some. If fighting a degenerative disease it helps them to sleep better. 1-2 drops under the tongue works faster than applying topically.

Helpful Oil Hints
Oregano & Lemon Helps Get Rid of Moles
"My daughter used Oregano and Lemon oils on a large mole on her husband's back. It fell off in two weeks. She alternated using the oils and made sure that the surrounding skin had olive oil on it first -- otherwise, any essential oil will spread to the surrounding tissue and irritate it.~Nancy, YL Distributor |
Palo-Santo for Bone Density
"I remember a long time ago reading that Palo Santo will build bone
density. Place it on the spine or hips. My mom does this now and is not
having any bone loss issues". ~Stacia, YL Distributor
|
GallBladder Issues "If you have gallstones Gary Young stated that 2 capsules of GLFtm(Gallbladder Liver Flush) six times a day would get rid of them." ~Annette, YL Distributor | |||
Young Living Oils are therapeutic grade. They may be used aromatically, applied to the skin neat or with a base oil, and some may be ingested. For more information contact Lennea Aurilia. 843-655-0555 or at Soulistic.Health@yahoo.com |

The Healing Powers of Sacred Frankincense
Over the last year I have heard some truly amazing stories about people who have been using Sacred Frankincense. Here is just another reason:
A Study With Sacred Frankincense
12
subjects, all had post traumatic stress disorder and all were able to
go off antidepressants after being on then for 63 years. All inhaled Sacred Frankincense 5 minutes daily for 30 days.
All 12 brain scans showed significant difference in brain wave activity.
17 year-old able was only able to read 5th grade level, 1 month on Sacred Frankincense and can read at 9th grade level.
80% improvement in reading and memory recall in 3-5 min of inhalation!

Palo Santo
Palo Santo
Palo Santo is
used by Latino cultures in Peru and Ecuador like Frankincense is used
in the Middle East . The dead wood is gathered and burned as insect
repellent, small strips are put in campfires to keep away lice and
ticks. The Palo Santo tree is a protected species. The live trees cannot
be harvested. If a person owns the land which the trees on are, they
can cut the trees. Five years ago Gary began trying to distill Palo
Santo from dead wood. It took him 2 years to figure out how to get the
oil from the dead tree. The tree must be dead for at least 5 years
before any oil can be extracted from the heart of the wood. It does not
product resin like Frankincense or Myhrr. Why is Palo Santo an Important Oil?
At this point not enough research has been done to say it is an 'anti-cancer' oil, however this oil is high in d-limonene. Citrus oils (whose anti-cancer value has been scientifically proven) are high in l-limonene. It has been used successfully at the clinic for prostate and lung cancer when given intravenously.
Palo Santo is highly anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal.
Palo Santo Highly Effective Against Respiratory Viruses
Effective for respiratory congestion, pneumonia, flu, bronchitis. The oil can be diffused, taken sublingually (under the tongue) or 3-4drops can put in 8oz of water to drink. Also use this oil in Raindrop Technique, massaging along the spine.
For ear infections: A few drops on a piece of cotton and placed in the ear. Rub outside of ear with a drop of oil. Do NOT drop oils directly in the ear canal.
For Nasal Polyps: With surgery polyps tend to return. Saturate a cotton swab with oil and swab inside of nose. One gentleman did this, inconsistently for 6 weeks and his polyps have never returned.
When Traveling: Rub under nose to kill bacteria before you inhale it on airplanes. Also apply around back of ears. Skin test before applying, may be irritating to sensitive skin. Dilute if necessary.
Children Who Have Lung Congestion: Mix 2 drops Palo Santo and 10 drops V-6 mixing oil and massage on back.
Inhibit Eye Infections/Pink Eye/Styes: Mix 1 drop Palo Santo & 1 drop Myrrh, rub around eyes, with eyes closed. If one suffers frequent eye infections could cause a detached retina. Do this oil protocol as preventative for that. Palo Santo & Frankincense together promote DNA repair in cells. Use Sandalwood, Frankincense and Balsam Fir together as a strong anti-inflammatory and for DNA repair.
.
Cartilage Regeneration of Marathon Runner
4 years ago a marathon runner had no cartilage left in his knee. He was facing knee-replacement surgery. He began rubbing Palo Santo on his knee daily and the cartilage regenerated. The DNA repair potential of Palo Santo has not been studied scientifically, but we know it is present.
Palo Santo has relieved rheumatoid arthritis pain. Some take internally in capsules.
Palo Santo Alleviates Depression! Apply topically, diffuse, inhale!
No one else except Young Living has these oils!

also notice that emotionally I feel better too."
~YL Distributor |
Pain Relief With Prenelone
"While away for the weekend, we stopped at a little shop where a woman was selling all of her quilting fabric. She said she just couldn't quilt anymore because she had arthritis so bad in her hands it hurt too much to hold the needle. I asked if she would like to try some Prenelone Cream & Panaway, as I had read it helped with arthritis pain. She allowed me to apply it to her hands & almost immediately the pain was gone! She can now continue to create beautiful quilts."

Lyme Disease and Essential Oils
Here is some great information on Lyme Disease provided by Dr.David Stewart from the Center for Aromatherapy Research and Education
1. Overcoming Lyme Disease with Essential Oils
~^~^~^~^~by David Stewart, PhD
Chances are, you know someone who has Lyme Disease. According to the Towsend Letter for Doctors & Patients, July 2004, "Lyme Disease is thought to be the fastest spreading infectious disease in the world, with more than 200,000 new cases per year in the United States alone."
It is called "The Great Imitator" because its symptoms are often misdiagnosed as something else such as Fibromyalgia, Arthritis, Abnormal Heart Conditions, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Alzheimer's Disease, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Depression, Multiple Schlerosis (MS), Schizophrenia, and more.
The symptoms of Lyme disease include: fatigue, fever, chills, headache, muscle and joint pain, swelling of the lymph nodes, nerve pain, skin rashes, back pain, mental confusion, and brain fog. If allowed to run its course it can actually cause arthritis, cardiac dysrhythmias, nervous system abnormalities, and other bodily or mental damages. It has been estimated that only 10% of Lyme patients have been accurately diagnosed.
According to the Mosby Medical Dictionary, the disease is named for the town of Lyme, Connecticut, USA, where it was first discovered and identified during the 20th Century. It is thought to have originated in that part of North America.
Since then, the disease has migrated along the East Coast, throughout the Southern U.S., and into the Midwest. The ticks are carried by the white-footed mouse, the white-tailed deer, other mammals, and even some birds. Carriers of the sickness could eventually migrate to the West Coast, but it does not seem to have done so as yet.
It can apparently be transmitted to an unborn child through its mother and people have been reported with Lyme disease with no evidence of having been bitten by a tick. Cases have been reported in Europe.
THE IXODES TICK
The disease is most commonly acquired from the bite of a small tick of the genus, Ixodes (pronounced Ex-oh'-deez). These ticks are extremely tiny, much smaller than a common dog tick which can get quite large. Ixodes ticks are normally only 1-2 mm in size, smaller than the head of a pin. They are sometimes called "seed ticks." Once imbedded on your skin, they are difficult to see, feel, find or detect until intense itching or a surface inflammation reveals their presence and, by which time, the tick may have gotten their fill and fallen away.
The bite of an Ixodes tick cannot always be verified by the finding of the tick caught in the act of sucking your blood. If it has been feasting on you long enough, it will leave a tell-tale rash pattern (described below). They can remain in connection with your body for as much as a week, if not found and carefully removed.
You don't want to squeeze the tick while it's head is still imbedded in your skin and you don't want its head to be left in the wound. Apply a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol or an essential oil, like Thieves or Peppermint. This will cause the tick to relax its bite and let go. Hold the treated cotton on the tick and bite area for a minute before pulling the tick off, which is done best with a pair of tweezers.
In order to transmit its diseases, the tick usually has to feed on you for at least two days. So there is opportunity to find and remove it before it is too late. You need to search thoroughly after a visit to the woods or fields where they reside. You may need a partner to help you look. If you have a dog that roams the area, they can bring the infected ticks into your front yard. So be wary every time you go outside.
PROTECTION AND PREVENTION
Applying an oil, like lavender, to your ankles, lower legs, waist, neck, and arms can repel them and prevent acquiring them and their bites. They are a threat only in warm weather, such as late spring, summertime, and early fall. It has been said that during the tick season, taking a daily capsule with 10-20 drops of Longevity Blend essential oil will also repel ticks.
When you find a tick bite, you will probably know when it is too late and infection has begun, because after more than two or three days they usually leave a visible pink spot or ring, up to half an inch or more in diameter. This mark is called a "bulls eye rash" and medically labeled as "erythema migrans" (EM).
Ixodes ticks carry a variety of diseases including: Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Erlichiosis, Babesiosis, and Lyme Disease, each of which is related to a different pathogenic microbe. For an account of how I survived Erlichiosis, see the article entitled, "When Modern Medicine is a Good Thing," in The Raindrop Messenger, Vol 7, No 5, Sept-Oct 2009. You may go to www.RaindropTraining.com where you can access the archives of the Raindrop Messenger from the home page.
Rocky Mountain spotted fever, Erlichiosis, and Babesiosis are all potentially deadly while Lyme disease is not. However, Lyme disease can be worse in some ways because most who acquire the disease suffer the symptoms for life whereas the other tick diseases can be completely cured with antibiotics if treated in a timely manner. Today's medicine has no effective treatment or cure for Lyme Disease.
The microbial organism causing Lyme disease is a spirochete named Borrelia burgdorferi, which is smaller than most bacteria but larger than a virus. It is spiral in form and is similar to the virus that causes syphilis.
Medical treatments with oral or IV antibiotics can mitigate symptoms, but cannot cure the condition. While allopathic medicines may provide some relief, they also always have untoward side effects such as candida infections. Some Lyme patients have spent tens of thousands of dollars on expensive IV antibiotics and doctor visits over many months and years to no avail, still suffering from the disease and eventually destitute, financially bankrupt. When attempting to find a medical solution, it is not uncommon for Lyme sufferers to lose all their financial resources and still carry the disease.
AN ESSENTIAL OIL SOLUTION TO LYME DISEASE
There is a Young Living Distributor in Wisconsin, named Pamela Carpenter, who contracted Lyme disease 20 years ago and spent untold dollars on medical treatments to no avail. In fact, after years of failed attempts by the medical system, Pamela and her family were left $165,000 in debt and still no cure. She was eventually introduced to Young Living oils and Raindrop Technique. She now leads leads an active life, full of energy and accomplishments, virtually free of Lyme Disease symptoms.
According to Pamela, she was first introduced to Young living in 1999 at which time she had suffered from Lyme Disease for some ten years. A co-worker recommended that she try receiving Raindrop Technique. "So I bought all the oils for raindrop and a book," she reports, "and put them in my grandmother's cedar box on my dresser where they stayed for the next ten years." She attributes her lack of action in applying the oils right away to her confused mental state due to the Lyme disease, which has invaded her brain.
After receiving an intravenously administered antibiotic three times daily for thirteen months to no avail at a cost of $70,000, she said to her doctor, "The Lyme bacteria is in my brain and your treatments cannot cross the blood-brain barrier. Isn't that so? Then, in other words, I am never going to get well with your treatments. Right?" Her doctor was silent. Upon that realilzation, Pam terminated her doctor visits and costly treatments, and turned to essential oils.
She knew of no one who did Raindrop, so she located a massage therapist in her home town. "I walked in with my book and asked if she was willing to take the book home and see if this is something she would do and I would supply all the oils. This began my passion for Raindrop," she said.
"I had no clue how this would change my life," Pamela tells her story. "Comprehension just wasn't there, brain fog, loss of memory, . . As you can see connecting the dots on how this was going to benefit my health, I didn't get it even as it happened. I just had a great deal of faith that God was leading me down this path."
"I started out having a Raindrop treatment once a week," Pam continues. "At my follow-up doctor appointment, four weeks later, he was amazed at my progress. I still didn't comprehend the greatness of this accomplishment at that time. I continued with Raindrop sessions every week for nine onths and then every two weeks and then once a month. I still continue to have a Raindrop once a month."
The following is Pam's protocol for living free from Lyme Symptoms:
1. She receives a Raindrop Session regularly, once a month, for health maintenance and to keep her immune system up to full strength.
2. When she senses that a bout of Lyme symptoms are beginning, she makes up a capsule containing 2 drops of Frankincense, 6 drops of Oregano, and 12 drops of Thieves. We will call these capsules, "Lyme Bullets."
3. Upon the first signs of an attack, she immediately starts a one-week regimen as follows:
One Lyme Bullet every four hours around the clock for three days, followed by
One Lyme Bullet every eight hours around the clock for four days.
4. At the end of that week, most of the time the symptoms have stopped their attempt to reappear. The bacteria have gone back into hibernation, and she is back to normal again with her full strength.
She emphasizes that you need to stick strictly to the "every four hour" and "every eight hour" protocol, setting your alarm through the night to keep up the timely assault against the spirochetes who want to attack you. If she feels the need, sometimes after a one week application of the protocol, she may repeat it for another week.
By applying this protocol, she has been able to have a normal uninterrupted life for years. And, who knows? With the repeated defenses of the essential oils, the Lyme spirochetes may just give up and quit altogether some day.
OTHER MODALILTIES THAT WORK WITH LYME
The only other healing modality known to be effective with Lyme disease is the application of electromagnetic frequencies that resonate with the microbial size and structure of the guilty spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi. The application of the right frequency causes the bacteria to explode and disintegrate while having no effect on the surrounding human tissue.
The machine that administered the lethal current is called a "Rife Machine." It was invented by Dr. Royal Raymond Rife as a treatment for infections in the 1930's and was vigorously opposed and aggressively supressed by U.S. Goverment health authorities and by the American Medical Association. Only in the last few decades has it been rediscovered and actually re-invented by several other scientists and medical doctors who believe in vibrational medicine and have seen its success.
For more on the use of a Rife Machine for Lyme disease, see the book, "Lyme Disease and Rife Machines," by Bryan Rosner. While there can be little doubt from those who have experienced or witnessed remission from Lyme disease with a Rife Machine, there is a drawback. It is called a "herxheimer reaction," named after Karl Herxheimer, German dermatologist (1861-1944). Usually shortened to "herx," a herxheimer reaction is an increase in symptoms following a treatment that is supposed to relieve the symptoms. "Herxing" is "getting worse before you get better."
What happens when a Lyme patient herxes following a Rife treatment is that the electromagnetic pulsing is so effective in killing off the bacteria, massive amounts of toxins are released in one's body from all the dead bacteria. Thus, until the toxins and dead bacteria are cleansed from the body, the patient can suffer intensly for a few days, but after a series of repeated Rife treatments, the disease has been often reported as gone for good. See the book by Rosner mentioned above for details, testimonies, and how to obtain or find a Rife Machine.
LESS HERXING WITH ESSENTIAL OILS
The advantage of destroying Lyme pathogens with essential oils and Raindrop is that oils and Raindrop are, themselves, highly cleansing and detoxifying when accompanied with lots of water. Thus, as the Lyme bacteria are dying off, the oil molecules can encapsulate them and their toxins and, when accompanied with large water intake, can carry them painlessly out of the body via the colon and kidneys. Following a Raindrop session or when engaged in the oral protocol with Frankincense, Oregano, and Thieves for Lyme, one should be urinating every 1-2 hours, or you are not drinking enough water.
People with Lyme can still have a herx response following a raindrop or the oral intake of essential oils, but it is less common than with Rife treatment and less extreme. One thing to be grateful for if you are herxing after a raindrop, it means the oils are doing what they are supposed to do, killing off the hostile bacteria and bringing you closer to freedom from the sickness.
If you contract one of the other tick bourne diseases (Rocky Mountain, Eurlichosis, Babiosis), there are effective antibiotic treatments for these. Symptoms for these other diseases can be identical to those of Lyme. You will need a blood test from a laboratory to determine which, if any, of these diseases may be the case in order to know which method of treatment you need.
As for in-depth information on Lyme and how Pamela Carpeter overcame it, she has a website: www.livingwithlymedisease.net.
Pamela is an avid
promoter of Raindrop Technique and is training to become a CARE Instructor.
She has successfully completed her Return Demonstration and will be doing
her Assistantship Class with her Mentor, Nancy Gouch. She is turning her
experience with Lyme into a gift and a mission to the world to help relieve
the pain and suffering of others by this dreadful disease.
