5 Ways to Improve Your Intuition

Have you ever met someone and knew right away that they were bad news? Or just had a strong feeling that you shouldn’t do something?

Those feelings come from your intuition. Intuition is the ability to understand something immediately, without the need for conscious reasoning. It’s an instinctive feeling. At the time, you just have a feeling and may not be sure why you have it or where it’s coming from. Sometimes it’s not logical and may go against what our logical mind thinks or wants to do. These thoughts or feelings in our body (especially in our gut) are the intuition’s way of communicating with us. [Read more…] about 5 Ways to Improve Your Intuition

LifeOhm Book Club – The Book of Joy

By 4 Comments

The Book of JoyI’m starting a new monthly series here on LifeOhm where I can share some of my favorite books with you. This one, The Book of Joy, I actually read in January, but I loved it so much that I knew it had to be the first book I featured. I got this book as a Christmas gift (thanks Mom!) and am planning to gift this book to others.

The Book of Joy is the story about Archbishop Desmond Tutu’s trip to visit the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala, India to celebrate His Holiness’s eightieth birthday and to create what they hoped would be a gift for others, and it truly is a gift.

Writer Douglas Abrams helped facilitate the dialogue and brought in some of his own research to support the concepts presented. The reader gets the benefit of the wisdom of these spiritual leaders, groundbreaking research on joy, and to witness the playful interaction between these sweet souls.

Why Quality Matters with Essential Oils

Quality Matters with Essential OilDoes Quality Really Matter with Essential Oils?

I get this question ALL THE TIME. Essential oils have gone mainstream, you see them at virtually every store, farmer’s market, and certainly at every natural grocery store.
In fact, one of my very best friends just told me, “I know all about lavender oil, it’s only good for a few things and I can buy it at any grocery store. I don’t need Young Living.” At first I was a little hurt by the comment, but then I realized that I might feel the same way if I was just starting out.

I started using essential oils in 2008 when a friend introduced them to me. At first, I was skeptical about whether or not they would improve my wellness and be useful in my life. I also considered going to the natural food store to buy oils instead. Since that time however, I’ve learned a lot! Essential oils have changed my life for the better and continue to add value to it everyday. I don’t go a day without using my favorite oils and I ONLY use Young Living because I know they are the best oils in the world and this is why – QUALITY!
