Essential oils are plant extracts that are 70 times more powerful than herbs. Essential oils were mankinds first medicine, and there are 188 references to oils in the Bible. (Frankincense, Myrrh, and Rosemary)
Oils improve health by killing viruses and bacteria, strengthening the immune system, penetrating the skin to heal, providing antioxidants, detoxifying blood and cells in the body, and purifying the air. Oils can be applied topically, diffused aromatically, and some may be taken internally.
Essential oils are fast acting and have no side effects. Just eight oils can replace 35 OTC drugs. They powerfully boost the immune system. Give oils a try and watch the health and mood of your family improve!
I use doTERRA essential oils because they are certified pure therapeutic grade. Purity is important for the best healing. You can learn more about these oils on my website mydoterra.com/37203

Nourish With Greens
Most American diets are lacking in leafy green vegetables. Greens strengthen our circulatory and respiratory systems. Greens are high in calcium, magnesium, iron, potassium, phosphorous, zinc, and vitamins A,C, E, and K. They are also full of fiber, folic acid, and chlorophyll.
Some of the benefits of eating greens are:
1. blood purification
2. cancer prevention
3. immune strengthening
4. energy
5. promotion of healthy intestinal flora
6. improved liver, gall bladder, and kidney function
7. reduced congestion in the lungs
Broccoli is popular, but be adventurous and try other greens as well. Try bok choy, napa cabbage, kale, collards, watercress, mustard greens, spinach, and swiss chard.
Add more greens and watch your energy soar!

Cauliflower Crust Pizza
My daughter and I found this website with a healthy gluten free pizza recipe using cauliflower in the crust. We loved it so much we've made it twice already and wanted to share the link for others to enjoy.
http://www.eat-drink-smile.com/2011/04/cauliflower-crust-pizza.html
The toppings we chose were Olives, mushrooms, red pepper, onions and cherry tomatoes. We got the spaghetti sauce from Trader Joes, and not only was it lower in sugar, but the tastiest of all sauces! This is a kid friendly recipe, as you can't taste the cauliflower at all. Promise!
Also, because the crust has cauliflower, cheese and egg, you are getting an abundance of protein, and fiber as well.

My Nourished Life
I am so excited to share my passion for health and wellness on this blog! As a Certified Holistic Health Counselor,I have been amazed at how lives change when people see the connection between food and health, food and mood, and food and energy. It is easier to make better food choices with the support of a health coach who believes in you and guides you so that you can reach your wellness goals.
This blog is a work in progress and will be updated with delish recipes, information from studies on nutrition, and great ideas for reducing stress. My specialties are gluten-free eating, reducing sugar addiction, and healing with essential oils. There will be special recipes for those of you who have gone through weight loss surgery.
Your input means a lot to me. Do you have any nutrition questions? Would you like to know where to get gluten-free products? Are you looking for recipes that don't use sugar or artificial sweeteners? I would love to hear from you!
Best wishes in your journey to health!
