Sustainable Esscentials
Yesterday, I went to the local YMCA, in order to join a gym with a pool, so I can finally follow my doctor’s orders and swim.
I have not been looking forward to it, but the pain is getting bad enough that I cannot make any more excuses..
Are there any other Chronic illness sufferers out there that have used swimming to good effect?
As for the Aromatherapy:
Last night, our dog Lucius, who sleeps at the foot of the bed, kept having bad dreams. At least I think it was a bad dream…he was crying and growling, so it didn’t sound good! I wasn’t sleeping yet, but was reading for awhile.
I kept waking him up, but as soon as he fell asleep, the crying and growling would continue. So finally, I got up and decided that I would try to give him some better dreams!
I put about five drops of Calendula Oil in my hand, then one drop of Rose Geranium…I rubbed my hands together, then rubbed his head, neck, and chest.
I got back into the bed, he went back to sleep, and I didn’t hear a peep from him after that! (He smelled much better, too!)

I say yes for aromatherapy, I have been using an aromatherapy oil to relief my headaches for years and it works better than any medications I have taken for headaches.
