My New Adventure

Just so you all know I have changed my mind about holistic medicine.  I've spent years laughing at how silly it all sounds.  But a few years ago I was having outrageous trouble with my allergies.  I mentioned it to a friend of mine and she said she could help.  Of course being skeptical me, I told her not to worry about it and I headed for the doctor.  At the doctor they gave me a shot of steroids which worked to keep the allergies under control for a short time.  I was scheduled for allergy testing so we could begin shots to help with the problem.  Before the testing I found out that the it was going to cost almost $200.  At the time that wasn't an expense I could afford.  So, I crawled back to my friend and told her I would try anything.  She sold me a $25 kit with 3 essential oils lavender, peppermint and lemon.  All I needed to do was mix 1 drop of each with a small amount of water and knock it back each morning and evening.  To my great surprise, IT WORKED!

Being skeptical me, I only used that one solution and paid no attention to the other "amazing" things she was doing with essential oils.  A year later that friend had moved. 

But that's not the end, an old college roommate invited me to come listen to a nurse friend of hers who was doing doTerra as a business.  Seeing as how it had been a while since I had seen her I decided to go just to see my old friend.  I was determined not to buy a thing.  I left that class amazed, intrigued and wanted proof.  So, I started purchasing oils 1 or 2 at a time from my old roommate.  Since, I have been able to get my 2 asthmatic children off of all steroids, I have slowed the progression of my varicose veins, gotten off anti-anxiety meds, warded off my annual bronchitis, shortened a number of colds and coughs, and brought my migraine count down from having a headache most days to 1 or 2 a month.  You could easily say, I got the proof I was looking for.

So, now I have decided to go ahead with doTerra as a business.  To be perfectly honest it's not about making a bunch of money.  Money is lovely, but it doesn't compare to what I feel in helping others.  I truly believe these oils can make a difference for people.  It sure has for me.

If you're curious you can take a look at the website without me knowing a thing: http://www.doterra.myvoffice.com/mikihone

If you want proof. Call me up or email me and I'll get you some samples so you can see for yourself.
