Tuesday Tip: Lemon Essential Oil to make your day Brighter!

When I think of Lemon Essential Oil,  Lemon Juice  I remember putting Lemon Juice on my hair when I was going to go outside to mow the lawn or play in the pull.  It was my way to help lighten my darkening hair.  It was wonderful because it added "LIFE" to my hair.

Now, the  "OLDER" me,  looks at Lemon Essential Oil and thinks WHAT ELSE can I use it for. . . Love the SCENT!

I can still add it to my hair,  but not so much for the lightening,  but for the wonderful scent.   Used the dropper to add a drop or two to my Shampoo this morning,  and next time I'm going to be outside for awhile I'll take the Lemon Spritzer and Spritz my Hair before going out in the sun.

TIP:  One of the first Bottle of Lemon Essential Oil I sold was to one of my customers,  Myra . . and she purchased it so that she could add a drop or two to the  kitchen trash, in between take outs, to help keep a fresh scent!

Super-strains of lice spread to 25 states: Are they in yours?

Head lice, long the bane of parents and kids across the country, are becoming a much worse problem: Strains of the pesky parasites that are resistant to most over-the-counter treatments have now been found in at least 25 states.

The spread of an ultra-strain of lice means you'll need to use a higher dose of chemical to kill them.

Lice — and other insects — are increasingly becoming resistant to pyrethroids, the active ingredients in most OTC concoctions, according to Kyong Yoon, an assistant professor at Southern Illinois University—Edwardsvillle. Yoon was part of the research team that initially discovered the new ultra-resistant strains.

In a new study, Yoon and his colleagues decided to find out how widespread these resistant strains were.

"We collected 109 lice populations and 104 had high levels of gene mutations," Yoon reported at the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society.

Researchers are finding that head lice that are becoming resistant to OTC treatments. Red states: 100 percent of the tested lice were resistant. Orange states: 50 to 90 percent of lice were resistant. Yellow states: 1 percent to 49 percent were resistant. Blue states: Data hasn't been analyzed yet. White states haven't been tested.

Me Monday: Busy Day Ahead?

David and I are driving back home from a WONDERFUL week at a ranch in Colorado.  The quite, relaxing and fun was something that we really needed.

That being said,  I know that when I get to the office in the morning I'll be hitting the ground running.  I'll have my "ENERGY ROLLON"  but I have a feeling that I might think about Spritzing my entire office on an hourly basis with "ENERGY SPRITZER" . .  because not only will it be a busy day,  but it'll be tough changing gears from our "REAL VACATION"

Healthy and Yummy After School Snack

When I first saw the idea,  my mouth just started watering,  and I had to run to the grocery store to get some fresh fruit.  Tasted so good.   It's just one of those reminders that many of us need.

Me Monday: Why Essential Oils

More years than I care to remember,  I remember my Grandmother being sick,  and I knew that I wanted to have a healthier way of life. . . then life got in the way,  and while I had an interest in Essential Oils I did not know where to turn to find information.  As the years past I did some research and knew that I wanted to lean toward the Essential Oils,  but I was scared.  Yep scared,  it seemed that a trip to the Allergy Doctor has me allergic to almost anything that grows.

But I learned over the years that if the essential oil is pure enough, and it's used in small doses,  and added to a "carrier"  most do not bother my allergies.  I found an essential oil that depending on the brand worked for me,  and it was my go to  "TEA TREE".   I was ever so excited when the DS company I represented came out with 100% Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils and Herbal Blends,  but provided us training,  sharing information and so much more.  

This graphic helps to explain, in concise terms, why I turn to Essential Oils first whenever I can.

Now,  Jordan Essentials has expanded the line to include not only the dropper bottles,  but Roll On's and Spritzers. . . 

Happy Sunday

David and I are getting ready for  what I know will be a WONDERFUL and BEAUTIFUL Week.  Today we arrive at a RANCH outside of Buena Vista CO,  it's been over 20 years since we have been here,  and when we left we decided that we would be back.  However,  life and our family business got in the way.  But we made ourselves a promise that THIS YEAR would be the YEAR.

TODAY we will be arriving and we are so looking forward a restful, re-energizing week in the Mountains.
