Purity Matters Most

Back where it all began...

Who knew simple touch of pure Lavender on a sore and inflamed hand, would have such a profound impact.

I'd previously never even like Lavender, or what I thought was Lavender. I now know, it wasn't real Lavender, just a cheap and nasty imitation, that made me sneeze and gave me a headache.

As a child, I did love that Mum always had, eucalyptus to support cold and flu, tea tree to clean up our cuts and scapes and clove to sooth a grumpy tooth. These still remain my favourite to this day!

I never knew the benefits of pure essential oils, I had no idea of the therapeutic benefits. I simply grabbed some over the counter if I liked the aroma. Did you know that to have PURE essential oil on a label, it's only required to have 5% pure oil in it? Just wondering what the 95% is... no wonder I was sneezing!

Just one touch of pure Lavender, got my attention, cooling and soothing my swollen hand after a cannula from an infusion had gone bad. Within hours I noticed a change and I had stopped complaining altogether the next day.

This began a journey of understanding purity really does matter. Understanding that there really is a pure and natural alternative to support healing. No matter how you choose to use pure essential oils, aromatically, topically or internally, you do need to use them safely.

We at Next Chapter love doTerra, they guarantee purity in each and every bottle. No matter which brand you use, please please do your homework, most oils on the market are doing more harm than good.

I am not a qualified aromatherapist, I do not know all there is to know about the benefits of pure essential oils, like the scientists do. What I do know, they are a wonderful support for my family, our first aid, our mood management, our selfcare, our cleaning and our natural aromas.

We are so very blessed to live in a country they have a wonderful healthcare system, that has saved us many times from servere illness and repaired injuries, we do try to avoid it as much as possible, supporting ourselves naturally where ever we can.
