My lovely friend and Wellness Advocate persuaded me to try the dōTERRA lavender and it worked like a charm. No reactions, no objections, just all the benefits we had hoped for. It is just one of the experiences we have had that demonstrate to us the superior quality of dōTERRA essential oils and how important this purity is. To use things as nature intended is the enlightened way. Test results, bio-resonance scans and the benefits we felt, showed us that these oils were in a different class.  

Excited and determined to learn more, I attended my first dōTERRA convention in the O2 London. I was overwhelmed by the ethics of the company - their values aligned with mine. Co-impact sourcing means workers and the planet are treated with respect. dōTERRA’s Healing Hands Charity does such amazing work it blew my mind. Being part of this made me feel good in my soul. I felt centred by their enlightened approach. I could support our life and wellbeing in so many ways, diet and nutrition, sleep and rest, immune systems, stress and anxiety even cleaning. In addition, a community of like minded souls came into my life. I am blessed. 

In 2021 I had all the lymph nodes removed in my right axilla and was advised to treat any bite or scratch in that arm with extreme care in case of infection. Thus, I have oils on me everywhere I go, even if nipping to the shop. Now, when travelling, my dōTERRA essential oils make up the majority of my luggage- lol!DoTERRA essential oils provide me with a connection with those producing them and the land they come from. A vivid memory stays with me of a remote dark room, lit only by the fire, with a couple of travellers eating. A woman entered selling magazines for a Nepali women’s charity. I sat reading in the flickering light, tears streaming down my face as the printed hard facts confirmed what I had begun to realise. Shocking statistics regarding the treatment of women, death in childbirth, infant mortality, lack of health care, no sanitation, poor nutrition and it went on and on. Life as a woman is hard, but some have it much harder than others. 

After my mastectomy and now three lymphadenectomies (removal of Lymph nodes) I have suffered awful side effects, both short and long term from the surgeries, medication and chemotherapy. I use dōTERRA’s oils and supplements daily. dōTERRA’s Deep Blue blend is a huge support. I feel tremendous gratitude to the women of Nepal for growing Winter Green that is part of that blend and gratitude to dōTERRA for their co-impact sourcing, which treats them fairly and with respect and dignity. The dōTERRA Healing Hands charity runs many projects in Nepal. I buy my Christmas gifts at the dōTERRA Convention or website and the money goes directly to a collective established and run by these women. Being both supported and supporting is a symbiotic and enlightened path. The connection and balance if affords results in centring.
