Abundance    at P.H.I.

I’ve been struggling with how to have a unique website and meet the needs of my group for a long time but have finally found a solution.  After convention last year i decided that I needed a new website of my own design.  So I did it!  It’s still a work in progress as I load more and more documents and information into the site but it is up and available for you to use.  It is intended to be an archive of all the information I’ve collected over the years on various health issues.  

This blog is intended for a place to communicate with each other about upcomming events and recent experniences with Young Living products.  Please share your testimonials here as well as post questions for others to address.  I was just about to cancel this but I see there have been quite a few new members join the blog, so I will continue.  This blog is not free to me, I pay monthy for the service so please contribute! 

 The P.H.I. Team newsletter is also up and running.    You can join the newsletter via the new website at www.phiteam.net   Please be patient as I learn how to opperate and keep up with all of these internet tools!

We’re a group of friends and family that like to ride motorcycles and 4 wheelers.   What surprises most others is the type of riding we do and our age.   Most riders crazy enough to ride the way we do are in their teens and 20’s, maybe 30’s.   Just going level on a trail has lost it’s thrill for our group, so we look for steep, very steep hills and cliffs to go up.  There is quite a sense of competition to see who can get to the top.  It’s a matter of skill and stamina as well as courage.   We eat breakfast before we go out for the day but we are gone and busy riding until dark, so there is no time to stop and eat, execpt for a few snacks.  NingXia Red in it’s travel packaging is part of our boost in the morning and during the day whenever we need that extra kick.  NingXia Red helps us have the energy and stamina to ride all day.  

I dislocated my shoulder one night while sleeping. My arm had fallen asleep and as I rolled over my arm did not come with me. So, we went to the emergency room. While in the waiting room we applied Oregano, Peppermint, Lemongrass, Marjoram Essential Oils. Just about anything we had with us at the moment.

When we finally saw the Dr. he asked if I needed to take any pain relievers, so that I could relax enough to relocate my humorous into socket. I told him that I didn’t need any because the oils had kicked in. I was able to relieve the pain enough that I did not need any medication; that night or the next day. I didn’t even take home the prescription. The next morning I was able to lift my arm enough to curl my hair.

I love using this product. I have four very small children. My oldest, is only five.  I love being able to use this product as I clean. My kids love to help me clean. They look at my cleaning bottles, tip them over, try to use it themselves, spray it on the walls, spray each other, start scrubbing and getting it all over everywhere, etc.. 

There isn’t  a poison control or warning label on the bottle because it is all natural, so gentle and yet, effective. I don’t have to worry whether my children get a hold of the bottle. I don’t have to worry about my walls, carpet, my children’s clothing, my children ingesting the product or getting it on their sweet little hands or spraying it in their mouths. I don’t even have to make sure there is a window open or that my baby is on the floor with me breathing the fumes; no matter what I’m cleaning.

My daughter even had a rash and I didn’t know what else to put on it. So, I put Thieves Cleaner on it. It did the job! It killed the bacteria, or whatever it was, and was so gentle on her skin.

It smells wonderful and so pleasant. I enjoy cleaning with this product. The smell is uplifting and I’m comfortable knowing I’m safe from harsh chemicals. It cleans everything, everywhere.

I am only 26 years old and my chiropractor tried to tell me that he thought that I might be the youngest person he saw who had arthritis. I was seventeen at the time.

I had been complaining about my knees, ankles, wrists and shoulders. My legs tingled often too. I was a cheerleader and had suffered accordingly. I didn’t believe him that I had arthritis. Although my wrist sure did ache and pop allot. I even had a lump in my wrist from scar tissue that didn’t dissolve for years. I didn’t bother me unless I tried to hold a pitcher or do push ups or basically put any pressure on my wrist.

Years later, when I was twenty two, I started taking two Super Cal twice a day, every day. In a matter of just a few months I noticed that my lump was gone. It didn’t hurt to pick up a pitcher of water anymore. I could walk up stairs and it didn’t hurt as bad, my back didn’t ache quite as much. My legs didn’t tingle any more.  I was so excited that these chronic ailments had disappeared completely. I feel young and full of vitality again.

You know how you start to get those tell tale signs that you’re getting sick. I was getting those a few weeks ago. The achy joints, less energy, yucky feeling…… I called my husband and asked him to come home during his lunch. I had him put oregano, thyme, thieves and peppermint essential oils up my back. I laid there for a few minutes and let it soak in. I felt completely better. I went on with my day and never had another sign of sickness.

My daughter came screaming in the house saying that she’d tried to touch a bee (wasp). Of coarse it had stung her. I reached for my peppermint oil and put it on her hand. She was still panicky; but, after I told her to take a deep breath she said she felt much better. I didn’t see it itch or bother her much all the rest of the day.

Frankincense is one of the essential oils and was reintroduced to Europe by Frankish Crusaders. Occasionally known as olibanum, it was often used in early religious ceremonies.

The lost city of Ubar, sometimes identified with Irem in what is now the town of Shisr in Oman, is believed to have been a center of the frankincense trade.  Ubar was rediscovered in the early 1990s and is now under archaeological excavation.

The Greek historian Herodotus was familiar with frankincense and knew it was harvested from trees in southern Arabia. He reports, however, that the gum was dangerous to harvest because of poisonous snakes that lived in the trees. He goes on to describe the method used by the Arabians to get around this problem, by burning of the gum of the styrax tree whose smoke would drive the snakes away.
