==========================================
1. Essential Oils for the Sensitive Person
==========================================

When I first experienced therapeutic grade essential oils
eleven years ago, I had this self-centered fleeting thought . . .
. . ."Oh my! these were made for me!"

Until then I was somewhat "unimpressed" with my experiences
of "aromatherapy".

I studied a few "aromatherapy" courses as part of my holistic
nursing education and, yes, I had my little bottle of lavender
in my medicine cabinet.

Other than sprinkling it on my pillow or dripping it into
my bathtub, I never learned much else to do with lavender, and
I was warned not to put it on my body without diluting it with
four times the amount of massage oil. Kind of scared me.

But I didn't want to put it on my body.

It smelled somewhat perfumey and since I am environmentally
and energetically sensitive, the last thing I wanted to do
was to put a substance on my body that has synthetic chemicals
in it, even if it did have a pleasant scent.

It wasn't until I learned about "therapeutic grade essential
oils" when I was introduced to Young Living that I was able
to have a true appreciation for what essential oils can do
for us.

After studying with Gary Young and learning that there are
differing models and philosophies of use with essential oils, I
became aware that in my prior education I had been oriented to
"aromatherapy" under the English Model. The English Model often
use perfume grade oils and they emphasize that all essential oils
must be diluted before they are put on the body.

And I agree with that - if you are using a perfume grade oil you
would want to dilute it to put it on the body - if you want to
put it on the body at all. . . I don't.

(It is important to note here that there are times when you would
want to dilute a therapeutic grade oil as well, especially when
you are using a hot oil.)

I felt so much better knowing that there were significant
differences in the quality and grades of essential oils!
It cleared up much of my confusion.

When I started to use "therapeutic grade oils" I had very
positive experiences right away. I just felt better, had more
clear thinking, could breathe better, and they didn't bother my
sensitivities.

So if you find yourself reading or hearing information about
essential oils that is conflicting and contradictory, read about
the different models of aromatherapy.

Here are a few great resources for you to learn more about the
different models of "aromatherapy":

-- The Chemistry of Essential Oils Made Simple by David Stewart
PhD - page 3

--Healing Oils, Healing Hands by Linda L. Smith - pages 47 - 52

Personally, I embrace the French model which recognizes the use
of essential oils for healing and medicinal purposes. This model
dictates that the highest grade essential oils be used. It is why
I choose to use the Young Living line of oils.

It is also why I choose to use the words "therapeutic use of
essential oils" instead of "aromatherapy" when I speak about
my own personal use of essential oils.

The sensitive person can benefit greatly from the therapeutic use
of essential oils.

Here are some reasons why:

--Some people are more sensitive than others because their bodies
are burdened by toxins and heavy metals.

Therapeutic oils detoxify and clean up their body burden in the
body and help make them less sensitive to environmental toxins.

--Sensitive people can often pick up subtle energies in their
environment because they have a "high vibration".

Therapeutic oils have high vibrations as well, so the sensitive
person feels very comfortable using the oils.

--Therapeutic oils can also protect the energy fields of
sensitive people helping them to feel less vulnerable to their
environment and other people.

--Sensitive people can use help grounding, and many of the
therapeutic grade oils are helpful in grounding (specifically
Valor, and many of the evergreens).


=================================
2. Essential Oil Tip: Protection
=================================

Sensitive people often need "protection" from certain
energetic elements of life - such as negativity and
environmental toxins.

White Angelica essential oil blend was designed with
protection in mind. A great way to use White Angelica
is to put a few drops in your hands and "run" it through
your energy field.

According to the Essential Desk Reference, White Angelica
"frequently neutralizes negative energy and gives a feeling
of protection and security."

Watch a quick video of what looks like my ethereal sensitive self
(its funny it came out like this) showing you how to apply White
Angelica in your energy field:

==============================
3. Success Tip: Pearl S. Buck
==============================

Pearl S. Buck, (1892-1973), recipient of the Pulitzer Prize in
1932 and of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1938, said the
following about Highly Sensitive People:

"The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this:

A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.

To him... a touch is a blow,
a sound is a noise,
a misfortune is a tragedy,
a joy is an ecstasy,
a friend is a lover,
a lover is a god,
and failure is death.

Add to this cruelly delicate organism the overpowering necessity
to create, create, create - - - so that without the creating of
music or poetry or books or buildings or something of meaning,
his very breath is cut off from him. He must create, must pour
out creation. By some strange, unknown, inward urgency he is not
really alive unless he is creating."

~Pearl S. Buck

==============================================
4. Recipe of the Week: Food for Sensitives
==============================================

Sensitive people are also sensitive to many foods.

The one universally good food that is good for most sensitive
people (according to Macrobiotics) is organic brown rice.

Here is a good basic recipe for Brown Rice:

Pressure Cooked Brown Rice

1 cup organic short grain brown rice
1 1/4 cups spring water
pinch sea salt

--Rinse rice in bowl and swirl with your hands
--Pour through fine strainer to drain
--Combine rice and water in pressure cooker and cover loosely
--Bring to boil over medium heat
--Add salt and seal lid
--Increase heat to high and bring pot to full pressure
--Allow pot to cook at full pressure 30 to 60 seconds
--Reduce heat to low
--Place over flame deflector (if using gas heat)
--Cook on low for 50 minutes
--Remove from heat and allow to pressure to reduce naturally

5. HSL's Joke or Cute Quote of the Week
=========================================

Resurrected Rabbit...

A man was driving along the highway, and saw a rabbit hopping
across the middle of the road. He swerved to avoid hitting the
rabbit, but unfortunately the rabbit jumped in front of the car
and was hit. The driver, being a sensitive man as well as an
animal lover, pulled over to the side of the road, and got out to
see what had become of the rabbit.

Much to his dismay, the rabbit was dead. The driver felt so
awful, he began to cry. A woman driving down the highway saw the
man crying on the side of the road and pulled over. She stepped
out of her car and asked the man what was wrong.

"I feel terrible," he explained, "I accidentally hit this rabbit
and killed it."

The woman told the man not to worry. She knew what to do. She
went to her car trunk, and pulled out a spray can. She walked
over to the limp, dead rabbit, and sprayed the contents of the
can onto the rabbit.

Miraculously the rabbit came to life, jumped up, waved it's paw
at the two humans and hopped down the road. 50 feet away the
rabbit stopped, turned around, waved and hopped down the road,
another 50 , turned, waved and hopped another 50 feet.
The man was astonished. He couldn't figure out what substance
could be in the woman's spray can!!

He ran over to the woman and demanded, "What is in your spray
can? What did you spray on that rabbit?"

The woman turned the can around so that the man could read the
label. It said: "Hair spray. Restores life to dead hair. Adds
permanent wave."

=========================================
1. The Detox Process: Death and Rebirth
=========================================

Spring represents rebirth, and it is wonderful to experience
in the areas of the world that have pronounced seasonal changes.

The earth comes out of its cold, contracted darkness, and
begins to bloom with color, warmth, and sunshine.

It is a necessary transition according to the Law of Nature.

It demonstrates the Cycle of Life.

That same Law and Cycle apply to our physical body.

Death and rebirth are going on all the time as cells are dying
and new ones are being regenerated.

Our state of health very much depends on how well our natural
detoxification process occurs in the body.

We can help this process along by assisting our body to detoxify.

One of the best ways to assist that process is by helping the
organs of detoxification.

The organs of detoxification in our body are:

--lungs

--skin

--colon

--kidneys

--lymphatic system

Here are some ways we can assist the natural detoxification
process that takes place in our body:

--Take good deep breaths when you think about it

--Steam to help the skin sweat

--Skin brushing to exfoliate the dead cells

--Movement to mobilize the lymph that helps to move toxins out
of the body

--Healthy liquids to keep the kidneys filtering

--Colon cleansing - either nutritional such as in foods and
products OR mechanical cleansing such as in colonics or enemas


============================================
2. Home Made Scented Easter Eggs - For Fun!
============================================

Here's a fun project to do with the kids or grand kids or just
with yourself!

You can make homemade Easter Eggs that are sprinkled with your
essential oils. These are fun and healthy to play with and make
a great decoration!

Instructions:

--Mix 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup salt, 2 tablespoons cream of
tarter, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1 cup water in a medium-sized pot
until well blended.

--Cook the mixture in the pot over medium-low heat until it forms
a thick dough that is no longer sticky (approximately 5 minutes).
Stir this continuously,

You can tell it is done when it no longer sticks to the sides of
the pan, but forms a clump of dough in the middle of the pan.
(*Helpful hint: the dough will become fairly hard to stir before
it gets done, so an extra set of hands to help stir may be
useful.)

--Remove the dough from the pan and place on waxed-paper.
Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.

--Divide the dough into four equal pieces.

--For each of the four pieces of dough, add approximately
10 drops of different colored food coloring, and knead until the
color is well blended into the dough.

--Add approximately 8-10 drops of different essential oils
or blends to each of the four pieces of dough and knead for about
60 seconds. If you find the scent of the dough is not strong
enough, add a few more drops of the essential oil or blend.

(*Helpful hint: to make sure both the food coloring and the
essential oil or blend stay in the dough and don't drip off,
create a well in the top of the piece of dough with your finger,
drop the coloring or oil in the well, fold the dough so it closes
over the well opening, then continue to knead the dough as
normal.)

--Form these into egg shaped balls

--Store each piece of dough in a ziplock bag, or other air-tight
container

--Sit them on some Easter grass on Easter Sunday - so they look
and smell pretty!


================================
3. Natural Dyes for Easter Eggs
================================

If you eat the hard boiled eggs that you decorate
then you certainly want to color them with only natural
ingredients.

Here are some ideas to color your eggs naturally:

--Red/Pink: Fresh beets, canned cherries or frozen, crushed
cranberries (not cranberry sauce or jelly)

--Orange: yellow onion skins

--Light Yellow: lemon peels, orange peels or ground cumin

--Golden yellow: Ground Tumeric

--Light green: Spinach

--Blue: Red cabbage leaves or blueberries (crushed)

Pre-boil red cabbage leaves for 30 minutes.

--Purple: Grape juice (Welches)


================================================
4. Essential Oil Tip: Regeneration of Tissue
================================================

Myrrh is one of the most noted essential oils for tissue
regeneration.

It is also highly anti-viral and anti-infectious.

Here is a video that I did about a year ago on how
to use myrrh on sore cracked lips.

It's a little embarrassing, but hey - it gets the point across!

distributor or go to: http://tinyurl.com/aenfp


==========================
5. Success Tip: Rig Veda
==========================

"Life, death and rebirth are inevitable."

~Rig Veda

==============================================
6. Recipe of the Week: Pickled Eggs and Beets
==============================================

Pickled Eggs and Beets

8 eggs
1 (15 ounce) can sliced beets with liquid
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)


--Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water
--Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat
--Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes
--Remove from hot water, cool, and peel
--Place eggs in a glass or plastic container.
--In a saucepan, combine beets, vinegar, sugar, water and
cinnamon.
--Bring to a boil, and stir until sugar is dissolved.
--Pour over eggs.
--Cover, and chill for 4 hours or overnight.


=========================================
7. HSL's Joke or Cute Quote of the Week
=========================================

A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the
preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands.
He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside.

The Pastor said to him, "You need to join the Army of the Lord!"

My friend replied, "I'm already in the Army of the Lord, Pastor."

Pastor questioned, "How come I don't see you except at Christmas
and Easter?"

He whispered back, "I'm in the secret service."

=============================
1. It's Not Easy Being Green
=============================

In 1970 Kermit the Frog sang these lyrics
to the world insinuating how he felt about
the color of his body and his identity.

I'm sure that he, and his originator Jim Henson,
had no idea that the future of this expression would
take on a whole different shade of green.

Today when we talk about being green we mean:

--Eating organic food
--Driving hybrid cars
--Safely trashing plastic
--Lighting our homes with natural light
--Using natural approaches to care for our bodies
--Participating in self-managed health care

Being green is basically about taking care of our planet and
ourselves - cleaning up, polluting less, and using natural
substances for healing and sustenance.

None of this is easy.

It requires huge changes to become "green", changes that don't
happen overnight.

Changes in thinking, consciousness, choices along with
making sacrifices, are not things one can easily do even though
they know it will make themselves and their environment
healthier.

Many times people need that "wake up call" to create change
(such as in disease or disaster).

But if we can do this consciously without that "wake up call"
powerful things happen!

Here are some simple beginning steps to being more "green":

--Start with awareness

--Feel your desire to make a change for the better

--Create an intention for yourself

--Begin thinking of practical application in your daily life for
your self care and the care of your environment

--Read these specific tips on being green in your environment:
http://snipurl.com/steps_to_be_green

--Stay tuned into Home Spa Lady events for upcoming "Green Tea
with Marilee" programs where Marilee interviews holistically
oriented health care professionals

--Be "green for the day" on St. Patty's Day next week on March
17th.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!


================================================
2. Essential Oil Tip: Organic Green Hand Scrub
================================================

Here is a wonderful and easy way to scrub your hands
and skin with organic sugar, olive oil, and your favorite
essential oil.

My favorite oil for this scrub is Young Living's "St. Marie's"
Lavender!

It is different from the regular lavender. It comes from a
very special location where the energy is incredible!

================================
3. Success Tip: Irish Proverb
================================

It's no use boiling your cabbage twice.


========================
4. Farmers' Almanac Tip
=========================

According to the Farmers' Almanac, if you plant cabbage seeds
while in your nightgown on St. Patrick's Day you are bound to
grow the best and biggest cabbage heads ever!


==============================================
5. Recipe of the Week: Vegan Organic Colcannon
==============================================

Colcannon

This is a traditional Irish dish. It is a side dish
of potatoes and cabbage. A favorite among many on
St. Patrick's Day! This is a vegan approach.
Use organic ingredients.

Salted water
1 medium cabbage, cored and quartered
2 lbs. potatoes, scrubbed and sliced
2 leeks, sliced
1 cup soy milk
1/2 tsp. mace
Sea salt and black pepper, to taste
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup vegan margarine (try Earth Balance brand)

--Fill a medium pot with the salted water and bring to a boil
over medium-high heat

--Add the cabbage and cook for 15 minutes until tender.
Drain and roughly chop. Set aside.

--While the cabbage is cooking, add the potatoes to a pot, cover
with water and cook over medium-high heat for 30 minutes, until
tender. Drain and set aside.

--Add the leeks to a saucepan and cover with the soy milk. Cook
over medium heat and bring close to a boil. Lower the heat and
simmer until tender. Set aside.

--Mash the potatoes with the mace, salt, pepper, and garlic. Add
the soy milk-leeks mixture, keeping the leeks intact.
Add more soy milk as needed to make smooth.

--Add the cabbage and margarine.

--Place in a casserole dish and broil for 2 to 5 minutes, until
browned.

Makes 6 servings.

6. HSL's Joke or Cute Quote of the Week
=========================================

The Doctor was puzzled "I'm very sorry but I can't diagnose your
trouble, Mahoney. I think it must be drink. "

"Don't worry about it Dr. Kelley, I'll come back when you're
sober."

Words to "It's Not Easy Being Green" by Kermit the Frog

From "The Sesame Street Book and Record".
'Green' is (c)1970 Jonico Music, Inc.


It's not that easy being green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves.
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold...
or something much more colorful like that.

It's not easy being green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ord'nary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
or stars in the sky.

But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain,
or tall like a tree.

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

6. Special Section: How Can You Impact Others?


=============================
1. A New You in A New Earth
=============================

I don't watch Oprah on television but I was first in
line for her webcast on Monday night.

The impact she is having on this planet (whether people
like her or not) toward creating heightened levels
of consciousness is profound.

Bringing Eckert Tolle's book "A New Earth" to the
awareness of thousands of people through a webcast is
only something Oprah can do.

Or is it? Can other other's beside Oprah have the same impact?

Can you have the same impact? (answer below in special section).

~~~~~~~~~

How we perceive things affects our life experience.

Eckert Tolle said in the beginning of the webcast
that "he didn't decide to write this book, the book
wanted to be written through him."

I thought to myself "that perceptual shift alone
explains what it is like to be connected to one's
purpose."

~~~~~~~~

Shifting the way we view things can change our lives
for the better.

If a bunch of us decide at the same time to change the way we
view certain things - then positive change can take place in our
individual lives much faster then if we did it on our own.

That is the power of what Oprah is doing. This is a collective
movement that will impact each life tremendously.

Would you like to change your health and body?

Making slight perceptual shifts based on the Listed
quantum facts (below) can:

--Offer you hope

--Help you realize that healing is always possible

--Have the awareness that health doesn't have to decline just
because we age


These quantum facts are from Deepak Chopra M.D.'s writings from
"My Quantum Mechanical Body":

--Our interpretation of our body determines its very molecules

--We should view our bodies in non-materialistic terms

--98% of the atoms of our body are replaced once a year

--Our skin is new once a month

--Our stomach lining is new every five days

--Our skeleton changes every three months

--We make a new liver every six weeks

--Even our DNA at the level of the atoms change every two months

--We are constantly changing our body, even more effortlessly
than we change our clothes

Having this knowledge, awareness, and perception can
positively affect our health, bodies and our lives!

This made such a huge impact on me when I read this fifteen years
ago. It made me pay much more attention to my thoughts and the
way I perceived my body to keep it healthy!

Use it to help you!

2. Essential Oil Tip: Jewelry for Your Oils
============================================

Here is my absolute favorite way to wear oils!

In gorgeous jewelry!

What a win/win/win situation.

You look beautiful, you feel beautiful, you smell beautiful,
you are building your immune system, you are cutting down
in germs in your personal space, and you are probably helping
others without even realizing it!

My favorite essential oil to wear in my jewelry is Abundance!

The compliments never cease when wearing Abundance! And the
"energy" of abundance that is drawn to you - especially when
you wear it in this gorgeous jewelry!

Watch this very quick video of how I use Abundance in my
jewelry (2 min 11 sec)

6. Special Section: How Can You Impact Others?
===============================================

You CAN bring your messages, classes, modalities,
techniques, and your special "touch" to the world.

Technology is amazing and it doesn't have to be
hard to learn.

You can start out very simple. . .with just the
telephone. Yup, the old fashion telephone.

And there are a few simple computer things you can do
too to reach massive amounts of people.

If the world is too big for you right now, you can begin
with your students, clients, patients, mentees, support
group, downline, employees. . . whatever group of people you
would like to influence.

I am going to be offering special trainings in the very
near future to teach people like YOU how to do this.

If you would like to be on a contact list for when these
trainings are going to start please click this link
and give me your information:

http://snipurl.com/i_want_to_learn

I know this technology very well and I teach it in an easy to
understand way.

Teleseminars, webcasts, webinars.

You don't have to be a geek to learn it!

Oprah inspired me to empower any of you who want to have
an impact on others with your work and your messages.

We can all get our messages out there.

And the more we do, the more we can help each other

. . . and ourselves

. . . and collectively create "A New Earth" !

up to be on the list to receive notices about
my trainings:
