Our Oily journey began almost 5 years ago now…
It is one that I would have never seen coming, but God’s timing is always perfect and he placed us in the path of Young Living just at a time our family needed it most.
It was 2017 and our precious second baby was one who battled with Asthmatic symptoms for far too long with no explanation from doctors as to why… They labeled him a “happy wheezer” because there was no consistent pattern of why he had these symptoms, they would come on randomly and stay for far too long for this momma’s heart to handle!
Seeing your healthy baby have to be strapped to a breathing treatment machine multiple times a year for weeks at a time, I was at my wits end. This picture says everything I could cry looking at him so sweet playing with his treatment attachments.
One night I called a friend, who battled Asthma for advice, when our treatments were not giving enough relief and she brought over a bottle of Young Living’s R.C. Blend.
She applied it straight to the chest and back and we waited… GUYS I kid you not, it took minutes and I mean like 2 or 3 and his wheezing diminished, his labored breathing GONE. Thankful was an understatement, when his treatments didn’t work, these oils did!
I told her then I needed that bottle in our home for Kolton.
If you are anything like me I was completely out of my element with oils, I had heard of them, but didn’t believe. I had been to classes but had no interest, until these oils impacted our life and we experienced all that they had to offer us. That was when my mind was changed and I needed to dig deeper into what they could do for all of us in the family… Were there more oils out there that I had been missing out on?
It was those days that our lives where affected even more… As I dug deeper, I found out the dangers of synthetic chemicals and synthetic fragrance. They were all over my home, from cleaners to Landry to shampoo and body wash, things I was not only using on Kolton but all of us… I started swapping things out slowly but I immediately swapped out our household cleaner for the Young Living Thieves Household Cleaner. When one bottle could replace all cleaners and literally clean our ENTIRE home. This one switch really changed things for me… Kolton has NEVER and I mean NEVER experienced one symptom since I have trashed our other household cleaning products. It took me a solid six months of using Thieves Household Cleaner to realize he had not had any asthmatic symptoms, that was when I realized that my choices for cleaning products, and other toxic products in our home where the cause for his asthmatic symptoms.
As a mother you want to shield your children from all the dangers of the world. It saddens mento think that I brought these products in our home that were detrimental to his health. I have always been one to believe that God’s timing is perfect and I believe this was his way of opening my eyes to the possibility of healing through oils and these amazing products that Young Living has to offer. The only way I could see was if effected me to my core, and for our story that was through Kolton.
I am forever thankful for these amazing quality products and how they have transformed my sweet baby boy. If you are feeling hopeless in a diagnosis and you don’t know where to turn, know that there are always options out there for you! Many times natural options are not recommended or given as options because the doctors themselves either are not knowledge or just don’t believe in them.
BUT THEY WORK Team YL is full of so many AMAZING TESTIMONIES…
Over the years now, I have heard how oils have changed people and I would love for you to share your stories with me too.
