I am so....excited to see the sun and warmer weather. Spring will be here soon. There are many benefits to the sun....like, it helps my body aches and pains go away. Yes, the warm weather helps me with the pain of Fibromyalgia. Also, basking in the the sun for a few minutes each day can be a real mood lifter, and a source for Vitamin D.
We have this burst of spring sun ( I know we will have another frost, at least in the South), so how do we enjoy it! How about getting out and walking for 10 mins each day. For you animal lovers, this is a GREAT time to walk your fur babies. The yard is turning green. How about a little yard work and decision making on where to plant your spring flowers. A nice picnic in the park with some friends would be nice also, or a short weekend at the beach for some long walks in the sand. Soon it will be summer and it may be to hot to spend much time doing these activities.
Spending time in the sun after a long winter is good for your heart, soul, and mind. Enjoy! Spring sun is the best!
I have many friends. I seem to be able to make friends wherever I go. Having friends is an important part of life. My family is stretched out over the South. Even though my family keeps in touch over the phone, having friends close by is very comforting.
So....last week I was talking to my friend Molly about exercise. She has set an incredible goal to hike a certain amount of miles this year. But it can be a struggle when she has to hike alone. I am hoping she will find a friend to hike with on a regular basis. Exercise is a must for a healthy lifestyle. I have always been self-motivated when it comes to exercise. I have not had to have anyone to encourage me to exercise. But some of you may need a friend. Look around at your friends and see if there may be someone who would like a walking, biking or hiking friend. You could exercise together outside or even at the local Y. I use the Y and there are many women and men who have a workout buddy, If you go to our local mall at 10 a.m.in the mornings, you will see many people in two's or three's walking the length of the mall.
If you need even more motivation, Young Living has a great essential oil called Motivation. Now, I do not use it when I workout, but it is time to do my taxes. Yes, starting tomorrow, I will use Motivation and Brain power, with some Clarity essential oil. I hate tax work and I do need lots of help, Ha!.
Today reach out to a friend or meet a new one. Friends make life so...much more fun. I am still friends with someone from kindergarten and I talk to my best friend from high school on a regular basis. Winnie the Pooh says "A friend is one of the best things you can have and one of the best things you can be." Reach out today to a friend.....
This month I am making some changes to my Joy and Myrrh page on Facebook. If you have not joined the page I offically invite you. I will be sharing short videos of Essential oil recipes using Young Living. I will also be sharing some of my favorite food Low Carb recipes. As many of you know, about 5 years ago I was diagnosed with high blood sugar. I was not interested in taking any meds, so I lost 40 pounds and I lowered my blood sugar naturally. I control it with eating low carb and very low sugar. Exercise and lots of water helps also. I am always looking for great recipes to eat in place of the high calorie, high carb meals and snacks.
Through these videos I will be sharing many items I keep in my Wellness Cabinet. I will be sharing products I use for hair growth, healthty skin, immune boosting and body support, etc. I have been using essential oils for over 5 years and have found that they compiment my lifestyle and my desire to live a higher quality of life.....as I grow older. Please let me know if you have any questions. Here is the link to my facebook page.
Hope this will encourage you to a more healthy lifestyle and a greater understanding of Essential oils.

Well it is that time of year! Yes, when in Alabama you are not sure what the weather is going to be like. One day we have tornadoes and 2 days later 20 degree weather with snow. And now it is very cold. By Wednesday the high should be 68. Yikes! It is that time of year for crazy weather and colds, flu, and sinus problems. Not to mention Covid. Everyone around me has had it. So.....what do we do to fight it all. What is in your Wellness Cabinet?
Well, in mine i have lots of supplements, essential oils, CBD oils and anything natural I can use. Why not start now and re-assess your Wellness Cabinet and Wellness Lifestyle. Do you struggle with drinking enough water? When feeling under the weather do you get enough rest? What supplements do you take to build your immune system? How is your stress level? What are your eating habits? These are questions you may be asking yourself.
I started my lifestyle change at the age of 57. I have found products that work for me.They helped me build my immune system, tackle some ongoing health problems and brought hope to my once weary body. I would love to help you build your Wellness Cabinet and develop a healthy lifestyle. 2022 is a GREAT year to start. It is never to late. Think about it.
