Does Alcohol increase your Risk of CANCER?

3/2/2016

If you drink alcohol regularly, then it is important to understand how your drinking is impacting your health. There are several research studies which have shown the health benefits of resveratrol, which is an antioxidant found in wine. Even though wine has this powerful antioxidant, you need to consider the other health implications from drinking alcohol.

In fact, evidence suggests that the amount of alcohol that you drink over time could have an impact on your cancer risk. At this point, it’s not completely understood exactly how alcohol plays a role in the development of cancer, but researchers have suggested that consuming higher amounts of alcohol might increase your risk.

Here are a few things that we know about alcohol and health:

Alcohol Depletes Certain Nutrients... Cancer risk might go up when there are nutrient deficiencies within the body, and it has been found that alcohol consumption depletes specific nutrients, including: magnesium, zinc, and B-complex vitamins. Heavy drinkers have a problem with folate levels, because the alcohol reduces the body’s ability to absorb folate from food sources.

Many people don’t get enough folate in their diet.  Alcohol consumption makes this problem worse by preventing the body from absorbing the folate that is available. Low folate levels have been linked with an increase in colon and breast cancers, so it is important that you reduce your alcohol consumption and eat more foods that are a good source of folate.

Chronic Inflammation from Alcohol... Alcohol can act as an irritant within the body, which can lead to chronic inflammation for some people. When the alcohol irritates the cells, especially in the throat and mouth, those cells are damaged. As the cells work to repair themselves, it is possible that DNA changes might occur which could eventually lead to cancer. This inflammatory response can occur anywhere in the body.

Drinking too much alcohol can also cause inflammation in the liver, and this damage can have a domino effect on other aspects of health.

Disrupted Hormone Levels... Alcohol consumption might play a role in hormone levels, because the alcohol might cause the levels of estrogen to increase within the body.  Estrogen plays a direct impact on the development of breast tissue, which can have a domino effect on the development of breast cancer.

If you want to reduce your risk of cancer, then it is best to limit your consumption of alcoholic beverages. Are you interested in learning about other lifestyle factors that impact your risk of cancer?  Contact a Certified Professional Cancer Coach to learn how to reduce your risks.

Are you chronically Stressed?  

12/27/2015

0 Comments

 
Stress often starts with your thoughts, in your head with a worry or a fear, and those feelings of overwhelm, anxiety and perhaps even panic, don’t stay there. When you feel stressed, your body ramps up production of the stress hormones cortisol, adrenaline, and norepinephrine.  This triggers the start of the stress response, and, like a snowball rolling down a mountain, it gains traction and speed until you’re ready for the proverbial attack.  "Stress is not a state of mind... it's measurable and dangerous, and humans can't seem to find their off-switch." These words of warning come from renowned author and award-winning neurobiologist Robert Sapolsky in the documentary Stress: Portrait of a Killer. Watch the documentary at the top of this article.
​
Excess stress hormones are released far too often. Your stress response becomes imbalanced; it’s not shutting off. Your immune system suffers as a result, and epigenetic changes are rapidly occurring.  Stress can occur with any event, a job loss, divorce, or traumatic event.  

The stress is triggering systemic low-grade inflammation, and suddenly your blood pressure is up, your asthma is flaring, and you keep getting colds. Your body is out of homeostasis.
You’re having trouble sleeping and, on an emotional level, you feel like you’re nearing burnout. That’s when you notice that you’ve put on some weight, and you’re having digestive troubles too. 

Stress Takes a Toll on Your Brain and Adds Inches to Your Waistline
​
Did you know that  stress can also lead to weight gain--of the worst kind? Stress-induced weight gain typically involves an increase in belly fat, which is the most dangerous fat for your body to accumulate, and increases your cardiovascular risk.  Stress alters the way fat is deposited because of the specific hormones and other chemicals your body produces when you're stressed.

Prolonged stress can also damage your brain cells and make you lose the capacity to remember things. Stress disrupts your neuroendocrine and immune systems and appears to trigger a degenerative process in your brain that can result in Alzheimer's disease. Stress can also accelerate aging by shortening your telomeres, the protective genetic structures that regulate how your cells age. In the words of Dr. Lissa Rankin, author of Mind Over Medicine:
"Our bodies know how to fix broken proteins, kill cancer cells, retard aging, and fight infection. They even know how to heal ulcers, make skin lesions disappear and knit together broken bones! But here's the kicker--those natural self-repair mechanisms don't work if you're stressed!"

Stress clearly affects your whole body and can lead to depression, heart disease, digestive problems, frequent colds, insomnia, anxiety and more...  so what can you do?

What you do for stress is a personal choice, what works for some may not for others.  Letting go of negative emotions, beliefs and limiting decisions is one way to help manage stress.  This can be done using the powerful techniques of Time Line Therapy.  Perhaps yoga, meditation or a high intensity workout is in order to help you manage stress.  Eating a healthy diet and drinking plenty of pure water is in order when you are feeling stressed.  Its always great to have support, join group activities or a support group if that is what appeals to you.  One more crucial point is to get adequate sleep!  Lack of sleep will impair your body's ability to handle stress.  A good night's sleep is always a great stress reliever.

Catching a cold or flu?  Discover 9 things you can do now to be well again!

10/26/2015

0 Comments

 
Picture

You know the feeling. It may start with a scratchy throat or with a few more aches and pains than normal. Or it could begin with a runny nose and a feeling of exhaustion. Yes, it’s a cold coming on — or maybe worse — the flu. Before you reach for the antihistamine, however, why not try an effective natural remedy instead?
Essential oils have been used for centuries to fight the symptoms of the common cold. You can add them to your bathwater, diffuse them in the air you breathe, some you can take internally or even apply them directly to your skin. Essential oils help the body fight off infection and serve to strengthen the immune system
1.  Tea Tree or Melaleuca Essential Oil - Extracted from the tea tree (Melaleuca), which is native to Southeast Queensland and New South Wales, Australia, tea tree oil has antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiseptic and antiviral properties. Used in an inhaler or in a bath, tea tree oil helps you fight the congestion and the resulting discomfort caused by the cold or the flu.
2.  Lavender Essential Oil- Lavender essential oil has antiseptic and antimicrobial properties, and it is gentle enough for use with children.  Use in a warm bath, on a pillow or in a diffuser.
3.  Lemon Essential Oil- Lemon essential oil, with its high vitamin content, helps boost the body’s immune system and stimulates the production of white blood cells, thereby increasing your ability to fight off illness. Lemon oil also improves circulation throughout the body. Put a drop in water, tea, use it with honey and cinnamon!
4.  Eucalyptus Essential Oil- As an antiviral and a decongestant, eucalyptus essential oil (eucalyptus globulus) helps treat colds and congestion. In her book Aromatherapy A – Z, author Patricia Davis recommends using eucalyptus oil in a steam inhaler to help open blocked nasal passages, to soothe inflammation and to fight bacteria.
5.  Oil of Oregano - Oregano oil might be one of the most natural potent flu-fighters, but few can stand the taste. You may put a drop or two into a veggie cap to take, some put it in water or a drop directly under the tongue.  For a stuffed-up nose or tickled throat, Dr. Oz recommends adding a few drops of oregano oil to a bowl of hot water, then holding your head over the bowl to inhale the vapours – for maximum effect (and if you can stand it!) drape a towel over your head while you do this to trap in the steam.

Best foods to eat when sick!  
Ginger - Potent fresh ginger is excellent for calming nausea when you have the flu, and is also beneficial for colds.  It has been scientifically shown to have potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties, making it a perfect ingredient to boost immune function and combat cellular damage.
kefir – is a good source of probiotics, which promote a healthy gut and build up your body’s immune system, helping it fight back against infection.
Chicken Soup-There’s a reason moms have been prescribing chicken noodle soup for decades and decades – it actually works! “Chicken soup really can help fight a cold due to its ability to alleviate inflammation -- particularly respiratory tract inflammation 
Coconut Water -You probably already know you should drink beverages high in electrolytes when you have the flu, as vomiting and diarrhea dehydrate your body. Instead of reaching for sports drinks, which contain added sugars, opt for coconut water instead, which is a natural source of electrolytes that helps restore balance to your body.

Quit Smoking Now!

10/19/2015

0 Comments

 
Picture
Why is smoking so harmful? On the surface a cigarette may look harmless, but it’s the smoke released when the cigarette is burned that causes problems. Cigarettes are not just tobacco wrapped in paper. They contain a whole cocktail of chemicals, which are added during the manufacturing process to make them taste better and get you hooked. The following is a list of some of the harmful substances you are breathing in every time you smoke: 
Nicotine  This is the drug that stimulates the brain and causes addiction in smokers. If you smoke regularly, you may find as soon as you withdraw from the nicotine you experience unpleasant symptoms. These may include intense cravings, increased anxiety, irritability and headaches. Smoking immediately relieves these symptoms.
Tar  Tar is the residue that deposits in your lungs after smoking tobacco. From here it enters the bloodstream and gets carried to other parts of the body. Shockingly, it contains over 4000 chemicals, over 50 cancer-causing carcinogens and other poisons. This is why smoking is considered one of the biggest causes of disease.
Carbon monoxide This gas affects how much oxygen your blood can carry around the body. As a result, smoking prevents your body from getting the oxygen it needs to function smoothly. This can lead to shortness of breath, low energy levels and poor circulation.

Why you should stop smokingSmoking increases your risk of developing a wide range of health ailments and diseases. Below we explore some of the most common:
  • Lung cancer - More than eight in 10 cases of lung cancer are directly related to smoking.
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) - Again, eight out of 10 cases of this distressing lung disease are caused by smoking.
  • Heart disease - Considered the UK's biggest killer, around one in six cases is caused by smoking.
  • Other cancers - Including mouth, throat, nose, blood, cervix and pancreatic cancer.
  • Infertility - Smoking affects the fertility of men and women, making it harder to conceive.
  • Gum disease - On top of staining your teeth, smoking can cause premature tooth loss due to gum disease.
Smoking not only harms your health, it can also negatively impact the livelihood of those around you. Children and babies living with people who smoke are vulnerable to a whole host of health problems. These include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and an increased risk of dying from cot death.
Adults who endure passive smoking for a long period of time are at increased risk of heart disease and lung cancer. Tobacco is also an irritant so it can make conditions such as asthma worse.
The benefits of quittingThe above information may make for a scary read, but for some the long-term risks are not enough to encourage them to quit smoking. If you are young and a smoker, you may find it hard to be concerned about your health and the illnesses that could strike decades later. If you are older, you may assume it's too late to stop smoking and reverse the effects it has had.       
In reality, it is never too late to quit. The sooner you quit smoking, the faster your body will recover and your risk of developing life-threatening conditions will decrease.
Longer life expectancy - If you quit smoking by the age of 30, you could increase your life expectancy by 10 years. Even if you are in your 60s when you decide to quit, you can still add three years onto your life. Not only will you have a longer life if you stop smoking, you should also have fewer health problems.
More energy - Carbon monoxide robs your body of oxygen, which makes it difficult for it to work properly. When you stop smoking you will be lowering the carbon monoxide levels in your blood, allowing your lungs and muscles to work the way they should. More oxygen to the brain will also help you to feel more alert, energised and awake.
Boosted immune system - When you smoke, your immune system is lowered. This makes you more susceptible to colds and flu. When you quit smoking your immune system gets a boost, which means you will pick up less illnesses and generally feel healthier all round.
More money - If you have smoked 20 cigarettes a day for 10 years, how much money will you have spent?  Take time to figure it out... Every time a craving hits - think about what you could do with that extra money.
Better breathing - Within nine months of quitting smoking, your lung capacity should increase by as much as 10%. This will help you to do simple things like climb stairs without feeling out of breath. Your smoker's cough should also disappear and any breathing difficulties or conditions you have (such as asthma) should be dramatically reduced.
Reduced stress - Many smokers reach for a cigarette when they are feeling stressed. While the immediate hit of nicotine after withdrawal may make you feel relaxed at first, in the long-term, smoking increases stress levels. Studies have shown that ex-smokers are less stressed than they were when they were smoking.  
Younger looking skin - Smoking prematurely ages the skin. Regular smoking can leave your skin dull, dry and prone to wrinkles. When you quit smoking, this effect is reversed as your skin receives the nutrients it needs. In time, you should find your complexion brightens up and any lines you have may appear reduced.
Hypnotherapy for smoking is just one of the ways you can quit for good and fully embrace the benefits of being a non-smoker. Book your hypnotherapy session with Lynn Thier, HERE Certified Hypnotherapist, Time Line Therapist, NLP Practitioner, & Nutritionist.

Hypnotherapy for smoking - When it comes to quitting smoking, a key aspect is letting go of the routine you once had and looking at cigarettes differently. Hypnotherapy for smoking is fast becoming one of the most popular forms of treatment to help you do this.  If you are considering stop smoking hypnosis, the first step is to make sure you are choosing to quit for yourself. Hypnotherapy is most effective when you really want to quit. For example, if you are stopping because friends or a family member is pushing you, you may not get the results you want.

Hypnotherapy works by putting you in a deep, relaxed state where your mind is more open to suggestion. At this point your hypnotherapist will look to change your thought patterns. You may also be taught various tools and techniques, which you can practice at home.

Some people find stop smoking hypnosis is enough to break the habit, while others prefer to combine the treatment with NLP or medication. This helps to tackle both the physical and mental addiction together. By exploring all the avenues you should find a suitable treatment that will help you quit smoking for good.
It is important to remember that hypnotherapy for smoking is not a quick fix. While for some people just one session is enough to quit smoking, others may benefit from a follow-up session. The ultimate aim of stop smoking hypnosis is to empower people to take control of their addiction and develop new patterns of thinking that promote healthier behaviours.

How to release  blocks and limitations and harness your full potential

9/14/2015

0 Comments

 
You probably know this feeling of being trapped in negative emotions or limiting beliefs. You may be blocked by anxiety, insecurity or depression. You may believe that you are not good enough or not worthy to have things you want the most in life.  Or you may you have felt that the lack of energy or chronic physical issues such as chronic pain, allergies or auto-immune diseases, prevent you from reaching your goals.  You have tried “everything” to change, improve and heal, but somehow there is still something holding you back from reaching your goals. May be you have even started to give up on your dreams to have the life you desire.

Imagine how good it would feel to:
  • Discover and address the deeper root causes of your mental, emotional and physical blocks and limitations
  • Free yourself from subconsciously stored negative emotions and limiting beliefs
  • Erase self-sabotaging patterns and create congruency on all levels
  • Re-program your mind and cellular memory to greater peace, confidence and self-worth
  • Access your true potential to heal, change and thrive
  • Have the skills and tools to be in charge of your thoughts, emotions and actions – and to continuously grow and create more balance, success and well-being in your life.

This can all be achieved using Time Line Therapy....It is used to release negative emotions, such as anger, sadness, fear, guilt, shame and limiting beliefs (for example I am not good enough, I don not deserve) through hypnotic regression and subconscious learning.

Most clients require only 6-8 sessions, which can be once a week OR spread over a time period of 2-3 months to breakthrough their blocks and reach their goals.  Each session is 1.5 - 2 hours long, so that there sufficient time to go deep and create powerful shifts and momentum. During the sessions you will work consciously with your subconscious mind, activate your mind-body-spirit connection and spend some time in a very pleasant, relaxed light trance state. By using specific mind-activating modalities and techniques you are able to resolve deep-seated emotions and limiting beliefs and gain a new perspective on yourself and your life. In the process you will learn and acquire effective tools and strategies, which allow you to further solidify the changes and quickly implement your growth in your daily life.

How hypnosis heals

9/1/2015

There is a mysterious part to hypnosis and just how it works. Lots of research has been done on it...What we do understand better are the results, and indeed, hypnosis has been a very successful technique to help heal the mind, body aspects. Here is how hypnotic techniques can heal the body.

The hypnotic trance has many amazing properties that include experiencing "numbness" in general or in specific areas of the body. This enables a skilled therapist to produce the absence of feeling in any part of the body.  One can even undergo surgery with hypnosis!  Hypnosis is more often used for more common problems, such as dental work, burns, headaches, giving birth, it is also used for weight loss, to help someone quit smoking, motivation, anxiety, traumas and more...

The body is designed to heal itself. Although this complicated process does work automatically, it can accelerated and enhanced by hypnotic techniques. By directing the subconscious mind to focus energy on a specific system in the body, more of your natural resources will go there. That means that if, for example, you were burned, your body will naturally begin the healing process which may take a week to complete. If you were to employ hypnosis to quicken this process, you may complete the healing in half the time. At the very least, hypnosis is extremely effective to decrease pain. The effectiveness of this technique depends on several factors. There is the client's susceptibility and willingness to use this approach, the skill of the hypnotherapist, and the severity of the problem. Hypnosis has its limitations, however it is always worth trying to use it because there is no "down-side" to the technique, it cannot do any damage itself.

One of the more profound effects of hypnosis is in using it to minimize or eliminate pain. An important caution is that if you do not know what is causing the pain, hypnosis may effectively remove the pain but, it may also coverup something serious that requires attention. If you know what is causing the pain, then it is safe to apply it to decrease the experience of pain and help with the general recovery. The fact is that most pain is "in your head" that means that it is possible to turn off the pain signals in the mind and minimize the sensation of pain. This can be accomplished in many ways using hypnosis. In general, positive suggestions are a good starting point, then these are usually elaborated to facilitate healing and remove discomfort.

There is a robust amount of clinical research using hypnosis to help heal the body or decrease the perception of pain. If you have a medical issue, consult with a specialist who is certified. The scientific literature is full of case studies validating the power of hypnosis to promote healing. If you have a problem I encourage you to consider the power of hypnosis to help you conquer it.

What is NLP & How can it Help Me?

8/17/2015

0 Comments

 
NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a name that encompasses the three most influential components involved in producing human experience: neurology, language and programming. The neurological system regulates how our bodies function, language determines how we interface and communicate with other people and our programming determines the kinds of models of the world we create & our behaviors. Neuro-Linguistic Programming describes the fundamental dynamics between mind (neuro) and language (linguistic) and how their interplay affects our body and behavior (programming). 

NLP provides tools and skills for the development of states of individual excellence, but it also establishes a system of empowering beliefs and presuppositions (assumptions) about what human beings are, what communication is and what the process of change is all about. 

NLP was originated by John Grinder (whose background was in linguistics) and Richard Bandler (whose background was in mathematics and gestalt therapy) for the purpose of making explicit models of human excellence. Their first work The Structure of Magic Vol. I & II (1975, 1976) identified the verbal and behavioral patterns of therapists Fritz Perls (the creator of gestalt therapy) and Virginia Satir (internationally renowned family therapist). Their next work Patterns of the Hypnotic Techniques of Milton H. Erickson, M.D. Vol. I & II (1975, 1976) examined the verbal and behavioral patterns of Milton Erickson, founder of the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis and one of the most widely acknowledged and clinically successful psychiatrists of our times.

 So, how can NLP help me?
  • You find yourself living in, and thinking about the past.
  • You constantly procrastinate when you need to complete a project or deadline.
  • You feel depressed, sad, upset and you’re not sure why.
  • You want your performance to improve at work so you can ask for more money.
  • You keep failing at a new health regime, falling off the wagon after a week or month and feel frustrated at yourself.
  • You’re stuck in a rut, situation or relationship and don’t know how to get out.
  • You lack self confidence which prevents you from speaking up or taking action.
  • You’re a sales person and want to get more sales.
  • You want to improve mental and physical performance.
  • You want to reveal the barriers that keep you locked in position, restraining you from freedom and independence.

These are just a few examples of how NLP can help you. NLP can be applied to pretty much anything where you want to improve how you do something, how you feel and how you think.

How to Menu Plan?

8/16/2015

0 Comments

 
Do you know how to menu plan for yourself and your family?  What happens at 4pm when your thoughts turn towards food and you wonder, what the heck are we going to have for dinner?  Sometimes people and families go out because they think its just easier, fast and cheap.  Or maybe you swing by the grocery store and pick up a few frozen dinners?

Some people may enjoy being creative and making something out of whatever is left in the fridge and cupboards. Or if you're like me, you may like to have a plan and a list when you go to the store so you know exactly what to pick up and how much it will cost.

Set up a time each week to write out your grocery list.  Go through some of your favorite healthy recipes as well as take into account any upcoming special events that week.  Be sure to have a sheet of paper with each day of the week written down along with each meal and snacks.  Write out your food plan and transfer any food items needed to a grocery list. On your meal planning worksheet, write down the recipe name and page number if you are preparing foods from a particular recipe.  

Decide what to prepare. It might be helpful to build in some routine as you first get started. Maybe Tuesday night is always fish night. Fridays you always go out to eat. Saturday is healthy homemade pizza night. You get the point. This helps makes the whole process feel a little less daunting.

Remember that you can always make great meals with leftovers.  If you cooked a chicken the day before, any leftovers can be used to make soups, chicken wraps or tacos.

That’s it! Learning how to menu plan is actually pretty simple, but it will only work if you do it.
Tell me: Do you menu plan?

Essential Oils Have Been Used for Thousands of Years!  Here's Why You Need to Know How to Use Essential Oils Today!

7/14/2015

0 Comments

 
Essential oils are rapidly becoming popular today, but they’ve actually been used for thousands of years. In fact, if you read the Bible, you'll find over 300 references to essential oils.

Essential oils were used to inaugurate kings and queens 
When you read in the Bible "anoint your head with oil," it was actually referring to essential oils. Historically, this was a very specific essential oil blend of cinnamon oil, cassia, calamus, myrrh essential oil along with olive oil.  
Frankincense and myrrh essential oils were brought as gifts to the infant Jesus
In fact, frankincense and myrrh were worth as much as gold was during those days. And the reason is they were the most effective forms of plant-based medicine. Frankincense, for instance, was used during that time to reduce bruising. It's also great with the nerve system, so they would have rubbed it on a child after birth to support their growth and development and to protect their immune system. Myrrh essential oil is a natural antiseptic. So, they would have rubbed it around the umbilical cord to keep that area from getting infected after birth.

Essential oils were also used in Chinese and Egyptian medicine 

In fact, they found several hundred liters of partly empty alabaster jars of essential oils in King Tut's tomb. It's actually been documented that Cleopatra opened the first beauty spa and she used essential oils in her treatments.

Hipprocrates, the father of modern medicine, famous for saying, "Let food be thy medicine," prescribed essential oils for healing over 2,000 years ago. So, why were essential oils used so widely throughout the Bible and throughout Egyptian and Chinese medicine?  Well, one reason essential oils were used so much throughout history is because they are easy to extract from plants... and your body naturally knows how to work with plants and oil-based compounds.

Here's Why You Need to Know How to Use Essential Oils Today
If you want to make-over your medicine cabinet, there’s no better way than essential oils.
Did you know essential oils can help you:
1. Replace dangerous drugs
2. Kill tumors and cancer
3. Reduce inflammation
4. Balance hormones
5. Clear up acne
6. Get rid of age spots & scarring
7. Support weight loss
8. Detoxify your body
9. Clean your home
10. Improve allergies
11. Improve spiritual awareness
12. And much, much more
Essential Oils Are the Most Effective Form of Plant-Based Medicine
Most medicines today were originally inspired from a plant, then synthetically recreated–which can be toxic to the body. Essential oils, on the other hand, are natural and gentle on the body. Your body naturally knows how to work with plants and oil-based compounds. 


When you smell a rose or a peppermint leaf, what you're actually smelling is the essential oil. There’s nothing added. Nothing synthetic. True essential oils are created by simply extracting the therapeutic, aromatic compounds from the plant.  Most oils are concentrated between 10 to 70 times what you’d find in the normal plant. So, you're getting very, very high levels of the therapeutic healing compounds when you use essential oils.  

In my opinion, essential oils work better than MOST modern medicines available today. 
Because the compounds are so small they can actually pass into the cell wall, which allows them to help destroy viruses, pathogenic bacteria, parasites and other diseases that get into your body. This is one reason why essential oils are so effective. It's also why I've used them and recommended them to my patients for years.

Essential oils work because they contain high amounts of therapeutic compounds. 
A 15 ml bottle (which is about the size of your thumb) of lavender essential oil, takes about 150 pounds of lavender flowers. Think about holding up a 150-pound plate in order to produce an oil weighing less than a pound. That's how many flowers or plants it takes to produce one single bottle of essential oil.

Essential oils are used everyday as natural medicine to treat a number of chronic illnesses, but they can also be used for everyday items.  Essential oils can be used for beauty, reducing aging marks (like sun spots or stretch marks on the skin), weight loss, and everyday things like cleaning your house, killing mold in your house, and allergies. Simply put–essential oils are gentle on the body and they’re the most effective form of plant-based medicine.

Here are my favorite oils that you should keep on hand, all the time...The 6 Best Essential Oils to Keep Stocked in Your Medicine Cabinet!

1. Lavender essential oil
Lavender oil is all things calming to the body. It's amazing for your mood and for your skin. For mood, it's been shown to relieve anxiety. It's been shown to help you overcome insomnia and improve sleep. My wife and I have a diffuser by our bed and we diffuse it in the air before bed or we just rub it on our necks, but it's great for winding down before sleep and to use on your skin.  Lavender oil is one of my favorites, one that I use pretty much every single day.

2. Lemon oil
Lemon oil is everything clean and fresh. Also, lemon oil is a natural detoxifier. It's been shown to detoxify the gall bladder and the liver and the lymphatic system. So, adding just a few drops of lemon oil to your water is great for naturally fighting any sort of immune-related issue and great for detoxification.

3. Peppermint oil
There are over 1,000 medical studies just on peppermint oil alone! One of the studies is how peppermint oil can be effective on the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease or IBS. 

Those with diarrhea, constipation, any sort of bowel issue or leaky gut, peppermint oil is a great essential oil to use. There are so many more uses, but overall this is an incredible essential oil that you can use on a regular basis.

4. Melaleuca
Also known as tea tree oil. This is the number one oil for acne. Just mix some raw honey and melaleuca together to make a natural face wash. Also, it's great for the scalp. You can mix it with shampoo and conditioner. I've made a natural deodorant with melaleuca oil because it's antimicrobial.

5. Oil of oregano
It's a powerful natural immune support. If you come down with a cold, you can simply mix this with coconut oil and rub it on the bottom of the feet and it's very effective that in kicking a cold that way.

6. Frankincense
This is my number one essential oil. It's an essential oil I use every single day and it's the most referenced essential oil in the Bible and throughout history. Frankincense contains a compound called boswellia, which is anti-inflammatory. So, if you have inflammation anywhere, especially in the brain, frankincense is the most powerful thing you could ever use.

I use frankincense oil everyday for anti-aging. I believe it’s the most powerful essential oil in the entire world today, and there are many, many more benefits of frankincense oil.  Article written by Dr. Axe and brought to you by Cancer Health Coach, Lynn Thier, Avid pure essential oils user.  To learn more about pure essential oils and find out which one's I use, Email me!
