Whatever YOU do, Do not step out of YOUR Comfort Zone!

Hello, MnSue here!

I have been running into many different situations and thought of this topic, "Comfort Zone". We don't dare say our thoughts on a subject as it would be, "so not me"! I finally told myself if one doesn't talk, one doesn't share. I may make mistakes but how would I have not known, if I had not shared? Why is it, no matter what we do we always fall back into our comfort zone?

 Not to feel out of place?

 Not to look different?


 It is really interesting, when you look at the conversations you have with people and listen, really listen. I was thinking about a chat with someone. They were going to sit tight and wait out the selling of their place, for various reasons. Out of their comfort zone? I think so. Someone recently has been not doing well. Try a different path for your health? Out of their comfort zone. I am sure, you will see it when you start listening to all the conversations around you. It is amazing. I am sure I say things without thinking too. Because, I too, am out of the comfort zone.



I keep running across people who have never heard of essential oils. I find that absolutely amazing. How can one not know about them, I wonder? Hmmm, I remember being told about the oils but wasn't interested. I remember having them around in the beginning and being overwhelmed with what all you can do with them. So clammed out and ignored the bottles. Did the bottles go away? No, my comfort zone eventually got chipped away at by those little glass bottles. ;)



So the next time you find yourself wondering what is in those glass bottles. Research them. Don't ignore them. I think of the years of my off and on use of them, not fully understanding the value of these gems! So glad I do now. I constantly am looking up something with essential oils. I am now even looking into many different health issues and amazed at how essential oils can help us, in our everyday needs.

 All of this because I chose to finally
step out of my comfort zone and found out I
 enjoy learning on essential oils and our health.

For example, did you know that cancer feeds off of sugar, including white flour? I have known that for a while but was amazed the other day when someone asked me if I knew. I thought everyone knew that. Yes, lately I have been really checking out and researching cancer. Cannot wait to finish the books we have on cancer. My husband is reading one and I, the other. Cancer scares me. So I told myself, research it, don't be afraid of it. Share what you know and pass it along. So thankful to be learning so much on healthy living all because I stepped out of my cushy comfort zone. 

There are so many natural ways to take care of your health and essential oils are one of many.

So feel free to step out of the zone and start learning!

 You may surprise yourself on this one, stepping out of the comfort zone. Soon you will be a pro at whatever you tried and be sharing it with all of us!



Enjoy the stepping stones to new adventures
Out of the Comfort Zone!

Are YOU Attractive? Who are YOU attracting?

Hello, MnSue here!

Okay, I am blushing with my headline. As I know all of you are thinking, "Now what are you writing on now, Sue?"

Yes, I am going to cover, "Are you attractive?"

Now I am going to hit you with another doosey! I am not talking about
your looks.

Sorry!

I am talking about what you wear for scent.

I remember a few years back (oh yes, story time again) and
one of my very good friends then.
Loved perfume.
Loved perfume so much, she thought, "more was better!"
I am sure we all have friends like that.

I used to jokingly ask her,
"Now why did you take that shower earlier,
you should have waited until after
you applied all that smelly stuff,
'cuz now you
really need that shower!"

Okay, okay.

But really. We all have been by them. You cannot miss them.
Whether your nose was
stuffed up that day or not, you smelt them.

So in a kind and loving respect to those around you.
Please, do not layer on too
many scents.

Good or bad, thick or thin.
We all can still smell it.

No, we do not need to use scentsy shampoo
then another wild smelling conditioner
after that the flowery powder
and then the fruity perfume.



You guys thought I would let
you off the hook?
Think again~

WildGame of Hunters Forest
for DippetyDoGel
Does not sit well with me
Either does
Lil' Hunter's Dog Breath
Pass for Cologne
Or Sweaty Socks
pass for Aromatherapy




But we can
use all things in moderation
and be considerate of our fellow friend
who'se eyes are watering
from constant
bombardment from the
lotion and potion
industry.

This is a different kind of attraction.
Or should I say,
distraction?

We all are attracted to others
for friendship and business
and
I would hate to see
you bomb it
right out of the hatch.

So I will leave you with this question,
"Are you attractive or distractive with your scents?"

MnSue leaving you
to gather up all them scents
and make some sense
of your "attraction marketing". ;)

Smokey Smell? Bad Scents From Diaper Pail, Home or Garage?

Hello, MnSue here!

Wondering why I am bringing up the smoker's smell? Ever passed on a beautiful top or some article of clothing as it has smokers smell on it, from a garage sale? I have and always wondered how to get it out. What about a car? What about a home?



What I would do first, as I don't want you buying a car or a house and telling me, "YOU said it would take the smokers smell out!" and I am in hot water. So my disclaimer is that you try this out first on something smaller. For example clothing, plastic toys, etc. I am not liable for what you do but I will tell you what I do and have done. :)

Sometimes the item is so ruined there is no way to get it out, like them really smelly socks (just kidding). But I try many ways and I have found one really good way for a few different things in our home.


  The Thieves Mouthwash gets rid of the smell on the breath. Thank goodness!Sometimes after you eat something like garlic or a strong odorous food it can linger for sometime, scarying everyone off. The Thieves Mouthwash works for hours afterwards. I love that side effect, don't you?



I like to use the Thieves Cleaner in my home, as it gets rid of bad smells that drive me crazy. Plastic dish that had something left over in it, that absorbed all the garlic or something I am not a fan of ~ mold! I let it soak with Thieves or the Purification sprayed on it, full force. Do not have to worry about the oils getting in your food, as they are good for you unlike majority of cleaners on the market.

When after cooking and I have had enough of the smell. Out pops the Purification and on goes the diffuser! Soon the house is smelling fantastic! Haven't found anything I like better to clear the air! Too many of the products on the market have some type of junk in them.




Also, for you smokers who do smoke in cars. Wipe down your car with a rag and some Thieves Cleaner added to it. Or if you like the easy way out, the Thieves Wipes. Then I would have a cottonball or a car diffuser going constantly in my car with Thieves once again. Or some citrus or Purification, if you wish. :)





What about those monkey wrenchers? ;) The mechanic that works from home that loves to get the garage just smelling dandy? Well, there again. Get another diffuser out in the garage and keep the hummer going.



How about daycares? Those diaper pails...arghhh.  The bathrooms in restaurants and elsewhere? I would keep just about any essential oil going around them places. Just to wipe out the scent!



How about in the attic or wherever you store your wool items? Keep Cedarwood on a cottonball and leave that close by in a baggie, zipped shut and just poke a few pin holes through the bag. Remember not to saturate the cottonball as you would hate to have any oil stains on the wool clothing.





How about your entry way as you great your guest? Citrus scents seem to have the best affect on majority of people, so keep a diffuser going close by with something, soft and pleasing to the sniffer.



Last but not least...your own purfume.

Do you smell of natural scents (haha) or otherwise. I perfer to dab on just a drop in the morning of whatever oil I feel like wearing. It is never the same but is fun to mix and match sometimes too.  I had a good laugh the other day, as I was waiting for this gal to help me at a business. She asked me what perfume I was wearing, as she just loved it. I had to stop and think, as I love to change them around in the morning. "What essential oil did I put on this morning?"  Were my thoughts. I had to chuckle as I couldn't remember which oil I had used that morning as it had become such a habit to grab one bottle of oil, read it, dab it on and onto the next item on the agenda. I finally realized it was Frankincense. I do not like to put much on, as some people can have allergies and I would not want to overwhelm them and have them sneezing all over me. So light application is good enough for me.



So...have fun with Essential Oils from Young Living and take care to scent yourself with a good essential oil. So many can companies can make claims. Use essential oils from a trusted company, do your homework. What I have found from experience with
using essential oils, is if you use cheap ones, they tend to be "oiled" down and not so effective that you end up using so much more and still not having the benefits of the real stuff! Also having a reaction to the cheaper made ones.



MnSue leaving you to
start with a few Essential oils
to chase away the smelly scents
and inhale in the good scents.
Now that just makes, plain ol' good
 sense(scents),
doesn't it?


P.S. I could write and write and write some more on areas of the house or places that we go, that can use Essential Oils. Hmmm, maybe it is time for a book already. What do you think?
