HEALING WITH LEMONGRASS
I just received this story from my dear friend... wow... Doterra Essential oils continue to amaze me.
"Jessica has been putting lemongrass on her chest, over her heart, and at her cardiology apt. last month, they found that she has grown a unique muscle that is pumping her heart! This is very very rare, her dr. has only seen it one other time in her career. Because it's so new, they are keeping her pacemaker in, but instead of pumping her heart 100% of the time, it's now only pumping it 50% of the time! I don't know if this has to do with the lemongrass or just a miracle...but I'm giving credit to both! :)"

Tips: Peaceful Child Blend by Deborah G.
"Peaceful Child has helped quite a few other people and I do think that this kind of blend needs to be available to everyone, especially to children with special needs and their maxxed-out parents. There are so many children out there suffering with all kinds of mental disabilities and disorders, such as ADHD, Aspburgers, Tourettes, and Autism (they are all related) and most of the medications for these disorders don't really work and have lots of side effects. The parents of these children also suffer. It is really tough to raise these kinds of children and Peaceful Child helps both the parent and child to cope better.
Here is a Fantastic blend of DoTERRA Essential oils for those who need help with Hyperactive children...
Peaceful Child
85 drops (1/3 bottle) Vetiver
30 Ylang Ylang
20 Frankincense
15-17 Clary Sage
10 Marjoram
35 fractionated coconut oil (I added the coconut oil for convenience for parents who need to get this on their children or themselves quickly during a tough moment)
Scent: Warm, deep, rich, soothing, stabilizing, comforting, languid
The oils in this blend are known for helping with:
Hyperactivity, ADHD, emotional trauma, fear, stress, anxiety, behavioral & cognitive disorders; neurological disorders. Calming, soothing, and stabilizing the central nervous system. Creates a deep, languid calm; has sedative properties; frees the nerves from excessive tension allowing a person to spiritually center themselves. Nourishes and protects the brain and nervous system. Restores feelings of hope and mental strength and promotes a positive outlook on life. Eases the pain behind anger and quiets mind chatter."

Meridians - The Body's Energy Bloodstream
by Mishelle Knuteson M.H., RET
Dr. Christopher taught that there is one cause of disease ~ Constipation. This doesn't mean only constipation of the bowels, it is a more general constipation (blockage) in any of the systems of the body. One system of the body that is often overlooked is your energy system which runs through the body's meridians - the pathways that carry energy into, through and out of your body.
The primary meridians travel through the internal organs of the body. These meridian pathways begin and end in acupuncture or reflex points on the body, many of which are found in the hands and feet. These points, sometimes called "hot spots" when they are tender, can be stimulated with a needle (acupuncture) or physical pressure (reflexology) to release or redistribute the energy. Good health is facilitated by energy (Qi or Chi) flowing freely through the meridians in the body; blockages in this system create pain, illness and disease.
Blockages to energy flow can occur in 4 ways:
1. Physical - When you injure yourself in some way.
2. Emotional - When you experience a high amount of stress, fear, anxiety or worry over a sustained period of time, emotional blockages are created.
3. Mental - This is caused by thinking too much. Too much thinking is when your mind never shuts down. There is always mental chatter going on in your head.
4. Spiritual - This is when your human spirit is crushed. Depression is often the symptom. You are found devoid of faith and hope.
Events can happen in our lives that will effect us in many different ways and effect more than one aspect listed above. To facilitate good health on all levels the energy system must not be ignored.
To keep energy (Chi) flowing, remember your self-care. Getting a regular massage will help to keep meridians open. Knowing how the meridians run through the body and where the ending reflex points are, allows you the opportunity to hold or tap the point to release blockages. You can also learn how to do self massage and stimulate these points on a daily basis, as well as how to trace and flush the congested meridians. Exercises that are good for energy flow are QiGong/Ti Chi and Yoga because you twist and stretch at specific places associated with each meridian.
For more information about meridians, where the reflex points are located on the body, and how to stimulate the "hot spots" and release blockages, you may want to enroll in the Reflexology course from the School of Natural Healing.
I often hear people say that they are doing everything "right" when treating an illness and are still not getting better. Part of the reason may be that they are not seeing the whole picture and neglecting to care for their energy system. "As the body's 'energy bloodstream', the meridians bring vitality and balance, remove blockages, adjust metabolism, even determine the speed and form of cellular change. Their flow is as critical as the flow of blood; your life and health depend on both. If a meridian's energy is obstructed or unregulated, the system it feeds is jeopardized" Donna Eden, Energy Medicine.

More information on Radiation
Tip / Info: Peppermint reduces radiation damage
Glutathione Declines Reversed A 2003 study published in the Journal of Radiation Research (Ref.3) found that ingesting peppermint oil reversed declines in glutathione caused by treatment with gamma radiation. Glutathione is the most important antioxidant and detoxification enzyme in the liver. In this study, peppermint essential oil reduced levels of oxidized (or rancid) fats in the tissues caused by radiation damage. (While you will not encounter this kind of radiation in normal life, the study showed that peppermint had antioxidant-protecting properties.)A 2004 follow-up study in Phytotherapy Research (Ref. 4) confirmed these findings.

I have been thinking about our neighbors and friends in Japan and surrounding areas today. I am concerned for them and my heart goes out to them. As I tried to think of something I could do from so far away, I remembered a tip that was shared by and Essential Oils expert, Dr. David Hill. I received this the other day and now I share with you in hopes that it make come to the hands of someone who really needs it!.
