Oils & Spoils

Disclosures and Disclaimers

I’m not bragging or complaining, just saying what is. I’m writing this blog on 3 1/2 hours of sleep, due to a work project that had to get done and that I finished late this morning. While caffeine certainly helped, and I admit to having three cups of coffee in various states of consumption in various locations around the house simultaneously today, yesterday’s discovery of Young Living Essential Oils proprietary blend Brain Power helped me to mentally power through many. many documents to write a coherent report.

I had intended to finish said report during the day yesterday, but then, other work things happened. We all know how that goes. Half my work day Monday and Tuesday went to other work things. To make matters worse, I had run out of my chill Young Living Essential Oils blend Stress Away at the start of the week. I hadn’t realized how much a daily application or re-application helped me, until I found myself wanting to snap the heads off of assorted people.

Thankfully, my essential oil order arrived midday. I immediately rolled on some Stress Away and started looking at the oils and other goodies I had ordered or received free through the Young Living Essential Oils April promotions. I had wrestled between ordering the blends Brain Power and Motivation. Motivation will be on my next order, because honestly, I could have started working on this project earlier and avoided the hurt I put on myself.

I put a drop of Brain Power in my hand and applied it to the base of my skull, temples and under my nose, per the directions. I rubbed the leftover oil into my hands and wrists. I know, hard to believe anything could be left over from a drop applied to so many places. Must have been a big drop.

It usually takes about 20 minutes to feel the effects of essential oils. In less than 20 minutes, I can barely describe the full frontal lobe feeling I got. It was like my brain had cleared out and had kicked into Mach 3 mode. Like I needed to pin my ears back. I posted on Facebook: I feel like the Scarecrow after Oz hands him a diploma. I SO needed this today.

When I was in college, I could pull an all-nighter, even two all-nighters in a row. At 48, not so much. Hubs says getting by on 3 1/2 hours sleep at our age is an all-nighter. I applied Brain Power a second time last night. I didn’t get the rush I got the first time I used it, but it helped me to synthesize about a hundred documents into one report. Eventually, the body gave out. I got up this morning and applied Brain Power again and finished the report.

Brain Power is a blend of Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood, Melissa, Helichrysum, Cedarwood, Blue Cypress, Frankincense and Lavender and can be diffused, directly inhaled (which I also did) or applied topically.

Until next time, Brain Power on!
