I think most here have been around for years of alternative health modalities showing up and then petering out.  What you
present to me though is that you are out to make money? Maybe if you shared some serious help for some people here and it were successful, I would think your intentions were honorable. Now is a time where this is so important.

<Interesting but I looked at your website, ridiculously expensive as a commercial promotion. I don't see why its price is in the stratosphere compared to plain old aromatherapy that ordinary people can afford. And I'm sure good diet is far more effective in maintaining good health and mental outlook.

Hey, Paul,

I know that you, of all people, know that you "get what you pay for" in terms of food and health.  Cheap distillation methods, additive adulteration, and synthetic reproduction of fragrances make most aromatherapy oils smell good - and poisonous.  They are the equivalent of factory-raised food.

Young Living Essential Oils and the Raindrop Training are both worth their weight in gold, because the oils really heal people, and the training helps you use them to their best effect. The level of training in what you called "a commercial promotion" is far more than selling the company's product.  The use of fragrances in our daily lives is a lost art - one our ancestors did every day without being aware that rose petals in their bear grease, thyme and cedar in their closets and lavender in their soap were actually healing them continually. The flowers on their tables that have been replaced by plastic, the gardening that has been replaced by playing video games and the lab fragrances in all our body care products are not health -neutral. They are destructive.

Radical diet change  is the core for improving health - but when we hit a plateau where better food could do no more, learning about the therapeutic value of essential oils opened up a whole new level of health and well-being.

I'd love to see our living on the land companions growing the plants needed to make therapeutic-grade oils more widely available and affordable.  It takes a lot of roses to make a tiny bit of rose oil - hence the steep price tag!

All the best to you,
Laurie Ann
