~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Essential Oil & Goji User's Guide & Source ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Recently I've had many requests for info about Essential Oils and Gojis/Goji Juice, so here's an update of how Yemiah and I use: - Essential Oils - Goji Berries - Goji Juice I mention Goji Juice here as the Essential Oil company we use also provides a Goji Juice. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Administrivia ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ join@RadicalHealth.com (articles) austin@RadicalHealth.com (Austin, Texas events) leave@RadicalHealth.com (unsubscribe) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Essential Oil Overview ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There are 100s of individual Essential Oils and Essential Oil Blends. Essential Oils are some of the highest vibrational substances on the planet. They are one of the few heated substances we use internally. While heat does change the character of many nutrients the Essential Oil process is alchemical and the Oils produced have many useful properties still intake. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Essential Oil Uses ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Here are some of the daily uses of Essential Oils for us: 1) Culinary Oils like Dill, Black Pepper, Cumin, Basil, Sage, Rosemary, Thyme, Basil all work extremely well in recipes. They are especially delicious added to avocado based dishes and salad dressings. Some of my favorite recipes are here: Raw Recipes, Purple Cows & Raw Bootlegging http://www.radicalhealth.com/issues/2003-09-17:purple.html 2) Smoothie Oils include Orange and Peppermint. I especially enjoy the amazing transformation my already decadent Chocolate Silk Smoothies go through with a few added drops of Orange Oil. 3) Pick Me Up Oils include Grapefruit and Peppermint. I swig these when I'm in workshops to keep me clear, awake and my higher brain functions peaked. I also carry a bag of Cacao (Chocolate) Nibs and Goji Berries with me, along with Dulse. 4) Health Centric Oils include: - Peppermint: The best toothpaste money can buy. I take 1-2 drops in my mouth and brush. Quite exhilarating! - Thieves: To instantaneously repair throat tissue during long speaking engagements or when sore throats hint at beginning. I take 1-4 drops down my throat. - Lavender: To sleep like a baby. 1 drop on pillow. - Lavender: To heal skin. 1 drop to skin. - Valor: To increase courage. 3-4 drops on feet or in bath as part of a Black Salve healing process, as Valor seems to lessen pain and accelerate masses exiting. More about Black Salve here: Black Salve User's Guide & Source http://RadicalHealth.com/issues/2005-10-21:black-salve-guide.txt - Purification: Sprayed in airplanes, hotels and anywhere else there may be high density of airborne pathogens (microbes). Few drops to a pump atomizer. - Lemon: Add to water to collect and surface toxins, which can be sponged off the surface with a clean napkin. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Goji Berries & Goji Juice Uses ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Goji Berries are great by the handful, soaked in salads/cereals and tossed in the VitaMix with Chocolate Silk. They are great traveling food - Gojis, Cacao and Dulse are awesome together. Goji Juice is great straight or diluted a bit with water. I love mixing in Rain Forest Herbs, especially Guarana, along with Crystal Manna, Pure Radiance C, MSM, Himalayan Salt and lemon juice for a great quick, exotic, tropical punch... ... with a punch... :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Essential Oil & Goji Sources ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My favorite oils come from Young Living: http://YoungLiving.com or 800-371-2928 and use ID# 396692. My favorite Goji Berries are in our catalog: http://RadicalHealth.com/order/ My favorite Goji Juice is from FreeLife: http://RadicalHealth.com/goji/ After trying many Goji Juices, including Young Living's recent one, I still prefer FreeLife's better. And I recommend you try them all and see which one works best for you, then guzzle it with wild abandon! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wrapping Up For Now ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Be sure and email me your Essential Oil experiences.
