Weekend Oily Tip! - Waking Up Early...

It happens to all of us occasionally.  Your children wake up WAY earlier than you want them to.  They don't care that it's the weekend! I have found some all natural products to help you get going and stay going through the day even though you didn't get the sleep you desired.


1.  NingXia Red - I like taking a shot (1-2 oz) of NingXia Red when I get up in the morning (or as soon as I remember and have a chance!).  Young Living states that, "NingXia Red is a whole-body nutrient infusion featuring wolfberry puree, superfruit extracts and citrus essential oils.  Its balanced ingredients will energize, fortify and revitalize the body from head to toe!"  When taken regularly, NingXia Red may help prevent against oxidative stress and it may support normal cellular function and eye health.  It's great for all ages!  My kids love it!  I even made ice pops out of NingXia Red!  I'll have to post about that soon.  Talk about a healthy summer treat!


2.  Essential Oils - Once I have a chance to change out of my pajamas, I roll on my Get Up & Go combo of Young Living Essential Oils.  My customized blend is quite invigorating and uses, Orange Essential Oil, Wintergreen Essential Oil and YL's trademarked blend En-R-Gee Essential Oil topped with a carrier oil (I have been using Castor Oil a lot lately).  I apply this combo along the Triple Warmer Meridian, on the Chakras and Organ Reflex and on the Neurovascular and Vitaflex Points for the Thyroid, Pituitary and Adrenal Glands.  Supporting the Thyroid, Pituitary and Adrenal Glands may help to give you the energy you need too!  Depending on the type of day it is, I may apply more than once.  Sometimes I use my Get Up & Go roller 2-3 times throughout the day!


3.  NingXia Nitro - When I'm starting to feel that afternoon slump, or shortly before, I'll have a tube of NingXia Nitro.  Its convenient size makes it great for on the go!  YL states, "Formulated with an exclusive blend of pure essential oils, botanical extracts, and Bioenergy D-Ribose, NingXia Nitro is a great support for body and mind. Naturally occurring caffeine helps increase athletic performance and endurance, boosts energy and provides a daily pick-me up."  This is such a better alternative to chemical & sugar laden energy drinks.  And this works too!  If drinking it straight from the tube is a bit awkward, it can be added to orange juice, or just squeezed into a small glass.


So give these a try the next time your kids force you out of bed before you're ready!  Let me know what you think!

Chemical Free! - Our Favorite Children's Toothpaste!

I love this product so I'm sharing about it!
Have you heard about the negative side effects of fluoride? Are you interested in keeping your kids' teeth healthy without unnecessary chemicals? Did you know that many toothpastes have tiny bits of plastic (AKA Microbeads, AKA polyethylene) in them that can get stuck in gums until the dentist digs them out???
As I became more aware of fluoride, I decided that it just wasn't worth it for my kids to continue using toothpastes with fluoride to brush their teeth. I tried searching for the best kids' toothpastes on the market and just wasn't happy with what I found, until I came across Young Living's KidScents Slique Toothpaste! It's perfect! JD even likes it - as it is not "spicy" at all!!! Now I don't have to worry about fluoride, plastic particles getting stuck in their gums, or any other scary and unnecessary ingredients in my kids toothpaste! And they all enjoy brushing their teeth again!
Since we have 3 children using the toothpaste, I do make sure that we are using only a pea sized amount. More isn't always beneficial and I don't want to waste this goodness!
I'm so thankful that YL carries more than just essential oils!
