I’ve always had a bent toward more natural remedies even though that’s not how I was trained as a doctor of optometry. I was first introduced to essential oils through my midwife after my son Anthony was born. My daughter Elliana had just started a mothers day out program and seemed to be catching every and anything that was going around. Since Ellie was two years old at the time we had conventional medicine at our fingertips, but with a newborn there was nothing I could do when he starting catching all the bugs from her. I started using diluted oils on both of them and was amazed with the results. I knew I had stumbled onto something pretty wonderful. These oils have brought so so much benefit to my family and are such a wonderful way to enhance health and wellness.

I believe these oils work so well because they’re God’s medicine, the natural byproduct of plant metabolism. They are tiny molecules that are easily absorbed into the skin and know just what to do once they get there — deliver oxygen and nutrients and remove toxins without the harmful side effects of so many medications.

And Young Living doesn’t just have essential oils. They have a whole host of wonderful supplements that are now part of my daily life. One of my absolute favorites is Ningxia Red. NingXia Red is one of Young Living’s most popular wellness supplements. It’s a nutrient-rich drink infused with antioxidant-providing super-fruits {wolfberry, aronia, blueberry, cherry, pomegranate, and plum} and powerful essential oils {Orange, Yuzu, Lemon and Tangerine}. One of the many reasons to drink NingXia Red is that it supplies the body with important antioxidants which help fight off the damaging effects of free radicals in your body. The body experiences a natural phenomenon called oxidation every day, which can produce harmful byproducts called free radicals. If left uncontrolled, these free radicals can damage cells, much like the chemical reaction that takes place when a half-eaten apple turns brown.

So needless to say I am in love with this wonderful company and everything they have to offer. These oils and supplements have become a regular part of my life and I’m so excited to share them with you. I wanted to use them for a good while before I advocated for them, but now I just feel like I’m hiding my best kept secret!

I live just outside of Houston, Texas in a town called Sugar Land — and yes it is very sweet ;). I am a doctor of optometry and a mommy to two precious babies. I first turned to essential oils back when my son Anthony was first born. My daughter Elliana had just started a mothers day out program and was being introduced to all the yucky germs that are spread amongst the kids. As a result, my poor baby Anthony got his first cold at a mere two weeks of age! I was so grateful to have at my fingertips something safe and effective to support their little bodies and haven’t looked back since!

The more I am learning about oils the more passionate I am becoming about their transformative value in our lives and am ready to share this with the world!
