E-N-E-R-G-Y

Thanks for all the love from Tuesday's post. We have been very blessed with the outpouring of support, love and prayers. Keep them coming! ;)

So, this week has been rather dreary. I couldn't figure out why - maybe it was Tuesday's post - but I just felt, well . . . blah! I didn't want to do anything, not even eat really. Finally this morning I realized what it was. I quit taking my supplements.

Yep, took them this morning and I am already feeling loads better! It's amazing how your body works when it's getting the right nutrients.

When my mom first told me about these supplements, I thought, "Those are for old people. I'm too young to be taking supplements." I mean, right? That didn't sit well with her, so after months of nagging reminding me about them, I started taking them.

My first thought was, "These are HUGE pills!" They did take some getting used to since I never take pills . . . EVER . . . looking back that is a pretty silly reaction. This is dōTERRA's number one selling product. It even has a 30-day money back guarantee; If you don't feel different at the end of 30 days, you can send it back for a full refund, no questions asked. Well, let me tell you. Day 3 was my first day of energy.

What?!?! Yes! I remember coming home and wanting to do more than just sit on the couch - even Karl noticed. ;) I don't know about you but I used to come home from teaching and just be absolutely drained. I did not want to do a thing - clean, cook, even hang out sometimes. Physically and emotionally DRAINED! Not anymore - at least when I'm good about taking them.

Let's look at each individual supplement and see what they do.



Alpha CRS+:
dōTERRA Alpha CRS™ Cellular Vitality Complex is a proprietary formula combining potent levels of powerful polyphenols that support healthy cell proliferation and lifespan with important metabolic factors of cellular energy. Alpha CRS is formulated to be used daily with EO Mega™ and Microplex VM™ as a comprehensive dietary supplement foundation for a lifetime of vitality and wellness.

I love this one because it helps your body create its own energy - no stimulants = no crashes/lack of sleep, etc.


xEO Mega:
dōTERRA xEO Mega® Essential Oil Omega Complex is a unique formula of CPTG Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade® essential oils and a proprietary blend of marine- and land-sourced omega fatty acids. Omega fatty acids help support healthy joint, cardiovascular, and brain health; help support healthy immune function; and have been shown to help mediate a healthy inflammatory response in cells. A single daily dose of xEO Mega provides 1,000 milligrams of marine lipids with 340 mg of EPA and 240 mg of DHA and a blend of plant-sourced essential fatty acids. xEO Mega also includes 800 IU of natural vitamin D, 60 IU of natural vitamin E, and 1 mg of pure astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant carotenoid harvested from microalgae. The bioavailability of the xEO Mega formula is enhanced through a nanosomal lipid assimilation system and is encapsulated in a vegetarian-friendly softgel.

You may be able to see it on the graphic above, but what I like about this product is that they have included Essential Oils in the complex, including Frankincense. I absolutely love Frankincense!


Microplex VMz:
dōTERRA Microplex VMz® Food Nutrient Complex is an all-natural, whole-food formula of bioavailable vitamins and minerals that are deficient in our modern diets. The formula includes a balanced blend of essential antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E, and an energy complex of B vitamins presented in a patented
glycoprotein matrix. Microplex VMz also contains the food-derived minerals calcium, magnesium, and zinc as well as organic trace minerals for optimal bone and metabolic health. Microplex VMz contains the dōTERRA Tummy Tamer™ botanical blend of Peppermint, Ginger, and Caraway to calm the stomach for those who may have experienced stomach upset with other vitamin and mineral products. Microplex VMz is encapsulated using sodium lauryl sulfate-free vegetable capsules, does not contain wheat or dairy products, and does not include any animal products. Microplex VMz is an all–natural product.

See a video HERE about how Microplex VMz neutralizes free radicals.

It's good knowing that I get all the nutrients I need for the day when I take this product. Even if you eat all organic, home grown vegetables, etc. only, you will still be missing vital nutrients because our soil isn't what it once was. [See interesting article here.]

I have been immensely blessed by these supplements and can't believe that I had forgotten about them this week! Bad habits, for sure!

I'll leave you with this short, informational VIDEO on the Livelong Vitality Supplements. Enjoy!

If this happens one more time . . .

Anyone know a good cell phone service provider? This is the second time that we worked with someone at AT&T and I am about ready to switch providers. We went in there today to get my phone moved to Karl's plan, which we had to get a form filled out by my mom (well, kinda :), it helps when I can sign like mom; it's not like I didn't have her permission) in order to do so. We walked in and talked to this guy, gave him the form, and we thought that he understodd what we needed to be done and he just started going. We got to the point where I would pick out a phone and he started getting stuff ready and I re-asked him, after he wanted to know what number I wanted to use for it, if my phone was now on Karl's plan and he just went crazy on us. Basically he said that we never told him that that is what we wanted. He was very rude, basically saying that it was our fault that he did all this work for nothing. It was very disheartening and I really wanted to tell him to forge...

New Journey . . . Diamond Club

What does it take to make a diamond? Any ideas? According to Wikipedia, you know the source for all things, a diamond is "formed at high temperature[s] and pressure". Karl and I are excited to announce that we will be taking part in journey. A journey that will, hopefully, push us to Diamond. It will take a lot of work but we are excited for this opportunity for our team. What is Diamond Club? Why is this so exciting? Maybe this video will explain it better. Diamond Club creates a great opportunity for EVERYONE! It allows Karl and I to travel to areas that want to grow and also allows for new members to receive additional products with their enrollment and subsequent LRP orders. Free stuff??? Yes, please!!! It really is a great opportunity for everyone on our team. We are looking forward to the immense growth that will happen because of this wonderful opportunity. So you may be asking, how do I get involved? What does this look like exactly? Basically we...

Writer's Corner Number 8

Typed from written Journal Entry: I thought I’d change it up a bit and try writing in journal form tonight. I am also curious to see the difference in length of writing for both writing formats. Dr. Semingson suggested incorporating pictures into our journal writings/posts. I don’t have any pics from growing up – they are all at my dad’s house in Michigan – but I can start adding new pics from Alaska, especially when it comes time to talk about our honeymoon adventures there. Today I want to start by talking about earthquakes. I want to preface this “talk” with a story from when I moved to Texas. Not long into the start of my 7th grade year we practice emergency drills. I remember one of my teachers talking about what to do in case of an emergency: crouch down with your head near a wall and cover your head. I remember thinking that getting near a wall wouldn’t be the safest thing in the world but I didn’t argue – I didn’t know what that emergency drill was for. Now that I’m olde...
