CLEAN ENERGY
How Do Essential Oils and Supplements Improve Energy?
Our bodies are designed to alternate between performance and recovery, stress and repair, vibrancy and rest. Most people turn to synthetic chemicals like caffeine, prescription medications, or even illicits street drugs for extra energy. Yet we all know how things like coffee easily turns into a dependency or even an addiction. "If I don't get my coffee, I can't start my day!" is the common mantra. Then, after the stresses and carbohydrates of the day accumulate, what do most people use to help relax and unwind? Of course, choose your preferred variety of alcohol, sleeping medication, or just toss and turn through the night with senseless insomnia. Hit the alarm and repeat.
These are the common patterns that rob us of our health, and while giving the appearance of short-term energy, deplete our longer term vitality and youthfulness. There is another way!
Before I go any further, I must share with you the simple and absolutely powerful common sense advice I feel like I've been repeating again, and again, and again to the majority of my patients in the ER. Moving into essential oils and supplements will do you no good without first getting the basics on your radar. You ready?
1. Drink Enough Quality Water
Step 1 is to cut out non-water as much as possible, especially soda/pop including diet! The target water intake for most people is half your weight in pounds, consumed in ounces every day. So if you weigh 150lbs, then drink 75 ounces of water. Try to find a quality water source or at least get a good filter for your water. You'd be surprised how poorly regulated nearly all water supplies are at removing impurities and less than helpful chemicals.
2. Nutritional Awareness
Nobody ever showed me a helpful way to think about foods and beverages I put into my body. Yeah part of me knew McDonalds was bad, and eating salads was good. But sometimes we need a little more insight. The chart above is a VERY simple example. On the left are those drinks/foods that tend to cause more acid (and therefore more inflammation) in the body. On the right are food that are more alkaline, which means acid-neutralizing. In the middle is the neutral zone.
The goal is NOT to eat a perfect 'diet.' And this chart is a guideline, not a bible for everyone. You know your own body best (along with your personal physician). My challenge to you is not to necessarily change what you eat, but to download this chart, print it or save it to your phone, and learn it. Whenever you eat or drink something, think about where it may fall on this chart. Awareness is potential power. When I need a boost of energy, or if I start feeling slightly run down or even sick, I immediately move to the far right. Within a day, maybe two, my body bounces back strong and it hasn't failed me yet. Consider giving it a try. Over time your taste buds will change!
3. Now, Tap into the Power of
Essential Oils and Supplements
Once you're de-acidified and hydrated, your body, brain, and energy are ready for a boost from these natural tools called essential oils. As a physician, 15-time Ironman Triathlon finisher, Coach of other physicians, and now dedicated advocate of these tools, I use them every single day. While I'm happy to share details of my regimen and preferred uses, how you end up using them will be unique to your needs, your body, lifestyle, and goals.
One of the main reasons I decided to step fully into sharing these products is to share just how powerful they are beyond providing 'a nice aroma.' The wisdom of the plants that produced these chemistries goes far beyond the ego of the human mind. I have personally found new levels of mental clarity and endurance, and new levels of youthfulness in my physical body. Athletes are using these products, and they also choose doTERRA because they're the best, most tested, and most trusted. Please enjoy these quick videos from athletes you may know. These aren't your typical commercials - they tap into the mission and beliefs behind why doTERRA is different, and why we're growing a unique culture of empowerment and contribution.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Let's schedule a quick phone call or let me see if I can answer your question via email...which ever is easiest for you. Please pick my brain!
Did you know 75% of essential oils in the market place are adulterated, watered down, or synthetic? My first oils I bought on Amazon. I didn't know any better - plus I'm cheap! It wasn't until I was given a bottle of doTERRA oil that I instantly knew the difference. It actually smelled and made my mouth water just like an actual lemon.
Because these oils ARE essentially, oil from actual lemons, oranges, trees, flowers, and other natural sources. So if you're starting to consider how oils can impact your life, allow me to explain a little more why I specifically chose THESE oils after carefully investigating and considering all the myriad of options out there...
