Our experiences with DōTERRA essential oils. Read here how essential oils came into our lives and why we can't imagine life without them.
Me and my brother are absolutely thrilled by the incredible power & effect of DōTERRA essential oils. In our home, they have become an integral part of our everyday life, because we use the oils not only to get a good scent, but also when cooking, cleaning, in our daily skin care, when someone is in pain or tense, with stress, with illnesses and much more. Oh, I could go on for ages telling you about all the things we use essential oils for.
But to make it short: Oils are our secret weapon in everyday life. They have literally changed our lives. "Why is that?" you're probably asking yourself now. In this blog we would like to tell you our personal story and invite you to change your own life as well.
Small everyday helpers with a huge impact
I would never have thought that one day I would turn to essential oils for colds, back pain, injuries or while studying, and that I would also work with these oils. If someone had told me that a year ago, I honestly wouldn't have believed them. I have always been interested in a healthy lifestyle and nature, but until recently I was not aware that essential oils could be used in so many ways in everyday life.
How it all started...
....in December 2022. During this time, I was about to take very important exams at university, so I had to study a lot. On top of that, my private life was also very turbulent at the time, so I was under incredible stress. Besides the pressure to pass my exams, I was commuting almost every day between my home and the hospital, where my grandfather was recovering from an operation. You can imagine that this time was really crazy.
A friend of our family gave me my first oil to help me calm down and find my way back to myself during this intense time. The oil she gave me was "Serenity", the oil blend for calming by DōTERRA. She told me at the time that this oil would help me work through the stress and that it would also help me sleep better.
Admittedly, I was really sceptical at first. If it wasn't for my mother, who almost had to force me to try the oil and put it on my wrists every night before sleeping, you wouldn't be reading this article today. Thank you mum for convincing me to give Serenity a chance. Because it has literally changed my life and that of my family!
The power of essential oils
Within seconds of applying it to my wrists, I noticed a feeling of deep relaxation. It was as if someone was taking away all the heavy weight that was on my shoulders. That night I slept better than I had in a long time. The next day I felt like a new person. When this feeling repeated itself the day after and the weeks after, I was convinced of the incredible effect of DōTERRA essential oils.
From that moment on, I knew I had to share my experience and these wonderful products with my family, friends and everyone in the world. Oh yes, I almost forgot. My exams were going great! Although I had to coordinate so much at the same time, I managed to perform very well.
My official start with DōTERRA
So I could hardly wait to create my own account at DōTERRA so that I could finally order more oils. Because after I had this incredible experience, I studied essential oils intensively and researched for days about their origin, effect, production and everything else. In the process, I also came across numerous testimonials, which only inspired me even more to start my own oil collection. In short: I was bitten by the oil bug.
I was all the more delighted when I found out that I would have a discount of 25% or more on all DōTERRA products in the future. "Unbelievable!", I thought to myself.
The joy was great when I held my first package in my hands a week later, which was delivered directly to my own front door.
Now you know it. My path and that of my family to essential oils.
My best Ah-ha Moments!
Peppermint and Past Tense, our best friends for headaches or migraines!
Right from the start, the new oils proved to be a real secret weapon and also delighted my family. So from that point on, I always use "Peppermint" or "PastTense" when I have a headache. Both help me and my family to make the headaches disappear naturally in no time at all. It's amazing, isn't it?
Myrrh, one of our favourites in the first aid kit!
Another oil that triggered a real ah-ha moment for us was "myrrh". I only knew myrrh from the story of the holy three kings. I was not aware of the incredible effect it actually has and why no medicine cabinet should be without it. Myrrh is said to stop bleeding in a short time. When I read this for the first time, I was very sceptical. "Can this really be?", I asked myself. When I cut my finger one evening while cooking and bled, it suddenly occurred to me that I had once read something about myrrh and its haemostatic properties. So I reached for this oil and put a drop directly on the cut. And sure enough! After an incredibly short time, the cut simply stopped bleeding! The real madness. A few more days of lavender on it and the cut was no longer visible at all after a few days.
I would like to introduce you to one last oil in this post before I come to my last article from DōTERRA, which really blew me away.
Lemon, so much more than just a detox supporter!
But first, a quick word about the "Lemon" oil. At first, I simply use it in water to stimulate my metabolism and detoxification or in the diffuser to feel an energy boost and more concentration. One day I saw in a video that the "Lemon" has another wonderful property. "Lemon" could effortlessly remove sticky residue from labels or grease and oil stains. No sooner said than done. I immediately grabbed my bottle and tried to remove an annoying stain that had been bothering me for months because I could never get rid of it, no matter what methods I tried. You won't believe it! One drop of "Lemon", finely rubbed in and the stain was gone! Since this great experience of success, the "Lemon" oil is always at hand in our home.
Deep Blue, number one in sport and exercise
Before I come to the end of today's blog, I have to tell you about one last product, or rather a whole product line from DōTERRA, which also blew me away and is incredibly popular in our home. The Deep Blue range. Deep Blue is an in-house blend by DōTERRA, which is also known as a soothing blend. When we have aches and pains, sore muscles or tension, the first thing we always reach for is the Deep Blue products. It's unbelievable how quickly the complaints disappear. At first I thought to myself: "That can't be!". But no matter whether it's tension after a long day at the computer, sore muscles after an intense sports session or tired legs after an excursion, you can always rely on Deep Blue products. I was even able to relieve my grandmother's aches and pains. Due to the arthritis in her foot, it was almost impossible for her to move around without pain for a while. Since she has been using the Deep Blue products regularly, walking is no longer a problem for her and her pain has improved significantly. For me, there is nothing better than seeing that my fellow human beings can do something good and feel better again.
Our favourite oil
If you were to ask me now, "What is your absolute favourite oil?" Then I would honestly have to tell you, "I don't know". Because every single oil or product from DōTERRA enchants and inspires me anew every time. Although I already know the oils, I am always thrilled by the incredibly powerful effect and am incredibly grateful that I get to incorporate them into my routine every day.
