Over the past few years, I've had a lot of people ask me what I did for my Lyme treatment. They see how well I'm doing and want to know what I did to feel better. As most of you know, for the past 6 years, I've been teaching people how to use natural health solutions. I use dōTERRA Essential Oils and products to help my immune system stay strong and thrive. 

First, my son and I did a nebulizing treatment. This treatment is a pr...

I like to get the AromaTouch technique to help my body feel better. I also love to give it to friends and family that need help supporting their overall wellness.

The AromaTouch Technique is an essential oil application applied to the back and the feet to create a feeling of overall wellness. It has multiple benefits from the eight specific oi...

Between the three of us, we used a few different natural options. When my daughter was diagnosed, and after 6 weeks of antibiotics and awful side effects, we changed over to all-natural treatments. 

She started doing tinctures and essential oils. It was a lot of work do make her tinctures 3 times a day, but if was worth it to me if it meant no more side effects. We also incorporated essential oils and supplements to get he...

Should I remove a tick and how?

Yes, remove a tick. But do not manhandle the tick by squeezing it, putting Vaseline over it, or holding a hot match to it, as this may increase the chance of transmitting disease. The tick should be removed with fine pointed tweezers. Grasp it from the side where it meets the skin, and, using steady gentle pressure, gently pull in the opposite direction from which it embedded, until the tick is r...

My daughter missed several days of school because of Lyme Disease.

I love this picture of her. I remember this day so clearly...she had started feeling better and that smile was back. She was laughing again. ❤️

My daughter was lucky, we caught it early on. If you read my post about her earlier, you'll know we tried antibiotics. After not having any success and some awful side effects--we started using tinctures and essential oi...

Fall of 2016. My son was a Sophomore in high school. He was a good student, played sports, and was full of life. Practically overnight, his grades dropped dramatically, he was depressed, and he had very irrational fears. This was probably the hardest time I’ve ever gone through as a parent. This disease is terrible. Seeing your child struggle with fear and being depressed is something I wish on no one.

I don’t know why I didn’t...

It's really important to have a good oral health. Bacteria can live inside the mouth and cause all kinds of issues. When you have Lyme Disease, the spirochetes live in your saliva, so the toothpaste and mouthwash you use is very important.

Over 90 percent of toothpaste chemicals can pass through your mouth tissue directly into your bloodstream. Using a natural toothpaste instead of a toothpaste with chemicals is a must. Look a...

After researching Lyme Disease, I started wondering if I had it too. I had many symptoms but blew them off to age, being an athlete all my life, being a mom of 4 active kiddos, and running a business. I was exhausted, I didn't sleep well, I was forgetful, I had word-finding difficulties, I had no desire to do anything, I had pain in my joints, regular headaches, and more.

I asked my Primary Care Physician if she would test me f...

Through our journey, we have tried everything from antibiotics (before I knew anything about the disease), herbs, tinctures, supplements, minerals, and essential oils. I have been a Wellness Advocate with dōTERRA since March of 2013, so incorporating essential oils and other natural alternatives was something I knew I wanted to do. But what? How? This was all new to my family.

We took our daughter to a Lyme Literate doctor, or...

People ask me often, "What is Lyme Disease exactly? I thought I would take the time to dive into that today.

According to the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), "Lyme disease is the most common infectious tick-borne disease in the United States. The disease was named after the town of Lyme, Connecticut, where it was first identified back in 1975."

Lyme disease is caused by a spirochete (pronounced s...
