Why I believe in essential oils!

Hello! My name is Madelaine Graves. I am a 22 year old girl who has a love for life. I enjoy adventure and I like to be active. I especially enjoy trying new things and learning new things. There is so much to know! I have recently developed a love and passion for essential oils. I am writing this blog with the intention of sharing with others the success I have seen from using my oils. I am not exceptionally "earthy" and I would not deem myself a "quack." I believe in going to the doctor for big health issues. Doctors are a huge blessing to us and I am grateful for their knowledge and dedication. However, I do believe there are ways to prevent and treat current health concerns from within the walls of our own homes. I am the type of person that usually goes to the internet to look up my symptoms and see if there is a way to treat them without spending a lot of money at the doctor. For those people out there that are like me, you are why I chose to write this blog. I hope that with my experiences and the things I have learned that I can help you to heal your heart and soul in a less expensive and more effective way. Unlike most medications, essential oils do not come with a long list of side effects. The oils I use are in their most pure form. They are certified pure therapeutic grade - medicinal grade.  You can take them internally.

So... how did I get involved with essential oils? I am prone to kidney stones. I started developing kidney stones back in high school. I would get them three to four times a year. I remember one time I had 14 total stones. I had six in one kidney and eight in the other. Talk about pain! I have been through the standard protocols for this problem.  I have been through 3 lithrotripsy procedures to remove my stones.   I don't recall developing a deep appreciation for the effects of oils until my mother gave me some Birch oil for the stones.  I remember coming home and being in so much pain that I just wished I could die. We went to the doctor and they told me it was a kidney stone and to drink a lot of water. I was desperate to be at ease in my own body. I rubbed the Birch oil on the side of my abdomen where my kidney was. Within seconds the pain had decreased drastically. My skin felt warm and I was finally able to lay still. Within the next few days I used the entire bottle of Birch and I waited for my stone to pass. At the time I would have been willing to do anything to make my pain stop. I thought Birch oil was indeed a gift from God. Anyone that has experienced a large kidney stone will understand exactly what I mean. This was the first time I began to be aware of the healing effects of essential oils. 

Birch oil is very hard to find and it is very valuable. Since then I have used Cypress, Lemon, Geranium, Thyme, Wintergreen, and Frankincense. I make a blend of oils depending on what I have on hand. These have proven to be just as effective. I continue to drink a lot of water and now I add lemon oil to my water. The lemon oil is 40 times more powerful than lemon juice, it tastes great, and keeps my kidneys functioning properly. 

I plan to write and inform you about how essential oils can help with physical issues as well as emotional ones. I will write about many other success stories and how the oils can help with conditions such as:
