Adulthood brings many of the same concerns. Here is the list of things I would say to my 11 year old self, listen to the podcast for the full story ;)

Do you turn the calendar to October and get immediate anxiety, panick and dread?!?

Your skin is your largest organ, what are you feeding it every day?

I just finished the essential oil certification that doTERRA has available. Here are some great facts from the course:

Every day we are exposed to dozens of synthetic chemicals.

An oil lamp can’t light a room if it is out of oil.

You can’t be a light in this world if you are “out of oil”.

Keep your lamp filled!

Especially if you are caring for dependents, old or young, it is critical to watch your own health - keep your lamp filled! A major key in maintaining a well-rounded lifestyle is protecting your physical health. Essential oils can be incorporated into that in many different ways.
