Who we are and why we oil

I am Christine, I am a mom, a wife, a daughter & a friend.  I am married to Roy and we have 4 wonderful & beautiful children.First we have Audrey, then there is Catherine followed by Jason and then our newest little surprise (10 years after the rest) Joseph.  We also have three 4-legged babies whom you will come to meet as well over the course of this journey we hope you will take with us.

We have only been part of the Young Living oiling family for a little under 2 years now (wow it does not seem like it has been that long) and are looking forward to many more years.  My first experience with the oils that hooked me was when I went to an oil party by a fellow member.  I was not feeling well and had a sore throat at the time and almost did not go due to that fact, after all, I did not want to get anyone else sick.  Well I am glad I did go.  While there my good friend and mentor on this journey decided to 'treat me' for my illness.  I, like most people I know, was skeptical and wanted NO PART of this Voodoo.  Well I decided what could it hurt, I mean I am already not feeling well, it can not hurt to just try it, I mean my friend has never steered me wrong before and if I hate it no big deal I will just 'not buy in to it'.  So, What did she give me you ask.  She gave me a small shot glass of NingXia Red with a drop or 2 of Thieves in it.  After taking it I asked if it was normal to have a slight burning sensation down my throat.  I was told yes but then given a spoonful of Coconut oil to take to 'dilute' the oils.  That did not go down quite as easily, LOL.  Before I left their house I was feeling 75% better and by the next day I was back to almost 100%.  This was enough to not only 'sell' me on the oils but also it sold my husband on the oils.

When we had decided to sign up we were not in a position to spend much money so we opted to simply get the $40 membership. Looking back now it would have been more economical for us to invest in the premier starter kit but that is ok. Since we have been oiling we have gifted a couple of people with starter kits and it has helped them to become healthier, happier people.

If you would like to join us in our healthier lifestyle or would just like to learn more about what the oils have done for us and what they could do for you, please let us know and we would love to talk to you more about it. If you already oil great we would love to hear from you as well as to what the oils have done for you. Wherever you are in your oil journey please stick around as we share our lives with you.
