I am so sorry that it has taken so long to get back in touch with my blog. I won’t make any excuses or promises, but I will say I am feeling more able to organize my time these days.
I wanted everyone out there to know that I have suffered with insomnia my entire life. When my parents wanted me to clean my room I would wait until late night to get started because once the sun went down I was ready to get up and get moving. I wish I had kept this quality after having my children. It would have made those 2 a.m. feedings a whole lot easier. Now that everyone is grown I suffer from fibromyalgia which can keep you run down and make you want to sleep a lot. The only down side to this is that when you take the naps during the day you can’t sleep at night. The doctors over the years have tried medication to help me to sleep but non of it does a very good job. I have been on 12.5 mg of Ambien for years and still wake up a couple of hours after falling asleep and get very little rest. Since starting to use my essential oils from Young Living I have found a few combinations that have helped and the doctors have decreased my medication. Hopefully one day I will find the right combo and come off of medication permanently.
Right now I would like to tell you about what I use and what I hope can help you.
Cedarwood: It is steam distilled from the bark. History: Throughout antiquity, cedar wood has been used in medicines. The Egyptians used it for embalming the dead. It was used as both a traditional medicine and incense in Tibet. Medical Properties: combats hair loss, antibacterial, lymphatic stimulant. Uses: You can apply directly to the area needed, put on the vita flex points of the feet, diffuse, or take as a dietary supplement.
Personally I love the smell so I will diffuse 3-4 drops of Cedarwood and any other essential oil that I like to smell together for a good nights sleep. (I love the smell of Lavender and Orange with this)
