I am living proof that essential oils work, and I only hope that my personal testimonies can help spread the word about how awesome they are!
Anyways, since the beginning of the week I started having pain in my shoulders, which is not super uncommon for me since I sit at a desk all week staring at a computer all slouchy-like (Oh, the joys of an office job!). Halfway through the week I noticed it getting worse, and spreading down my arms into my hands. By Thursday night, I was so miserable and could not get comfortable no matter what I did. On Friday the pain and inflammation had spread throughout my entire body and I felt so tired I could barely hold my body up. I felt sick. Honestly, I have no idea what was going on with my body, but suddenly something random happened that I didn't expect. I was also having really bad allergy symptoms that day, and thought maybe I was getting sick with a cold or something so I put a couple of drops of Lemon essential oil under my tongue (Lemon is great for allergies/colds). I hadn't been using Lemon oil for about a week prior because I didn't think I needed to use it as much. About 30 minutes later, I notice that my pain is 95% gone! After 5 days...it just DISAPPEARED. At first I was really confused, but then I remembered the Lemon from a few minutes before and thought it had to be a coincidence. There is no way. That would be crazy! I had never heard of anyone using Lemon oil for pain. After some research I found that Lemon is actually an anti-inflammatory! My mind is absolutely blown. I loved oils before and they have helped me a ton, but this takes the cake! By the next day I was back to my Zumba classes. ;)
Lemon oil is officially one that I will never be without, and I plan to use it every day to prevent further inflammation and pain. I'm thankful to God for putting essential oils in my life, and showing me a healthier way to live by using the oils from the plants provided by Him!
