I'm Susan -  a fun loving grandmother in her sixties, living in North Delta. I feel LIFE should be fun! I enjoy spending time with my family (inside and outside) and love to travel. Life has not always been fun, as I had multiple medical issues to deal with - from allergies to intestinal issues. In the last 5 yrs I feel that I have taken control over my health. Call it the "pivotal" moment, or the "breaking point" when I refused to take ONE MORE PILL, but I started looking for alternatives

I started using Young Living oils for headaches & stomach issues - the beginning of my journey with Young Living.

Surprised that the oils worked, and happy that they did not contain additives, or toxic chemicals, I started trying different oils. One day I realized that my emotional health was better - a byproduct of using the oils as Natural Health Products.

Just after I turned 60 and felt like I was gaining control over my health, I woke up with hives. Within 24 hrs, they covered 60% of my body. I was confused what has caused them. Weeks turned into months, while I waited for tests to see if once again my body was having an allergic reaction to food. Yes, this was the THIRD time that this had happened. The allergist eliminated even more food. My body was telling me that I was NOT in control. I was diagnosed with Chronic Urticaria - my body was attacking itself and the food that I was ingesting. I started to panic - what if it keeps happening? What would I eat? The doctor said that I could have IV's - and unfortunately, she wasn't joking.

After months of REACTING to the hives, I decided that I needed to be PROACTIVE and try to prevent it from happening again. I started to do research and discovered that GUT HEALTH plays an important role in numerous health issues. It was hard to find Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics that didn't contain fillers, or things that I was allergic to. I realized that I already HAD access to high quality, pure supplements - Through Young Living. I started using their supplements and drinking Ningxia Red.

Fast forward 6 months - The  hives faded, but the BEST part is that my blood work showed that I was not anemic for the first time in over 40 years! Although I still have an Autoimmune Disorder, for the first time in years, I feel that I can live ABOVE the wellness line. I will continue to use Young Living products to keep my gut healthy, continue removing toxins from our home, and continue to use therapeutic grade oils for both my physical  & mental health.

My wish for you is that you accept that YOU can also live ABOVE the wellness line - no matter how old you are and despite whatever health challenges you are facing. We do not need to accept that whatever happens is part of aging. We can strive to be proactive in our health care.

This year I am turning 62 and I am getting healthier every day from the "Inside Out".

Life is a journey - Let's enjoy every day!
