Do you treat yourself to a nice Sunday Breakfast?

Do you like a hearty breakfast?

Do you ever make excuses not to have breakfast? In a rush, no time, nothing you fancy, it's too early. These may be excuses you have given during the week, but come the weekend hopefully you have a little more time for yourself.

Enjoy the start of your day

Breakfast can be somewhat neglected nowadays, but it is one of the most important meals of your day. A good healthy breakfast gets your metabolism started, prevents any sugar dips later on in the morning and more importantly if you sit down to eat with a loved one it gives you valuable time together. Don't skip your breakfast because if you do you'll be more likely to make unhealthy food choices later on, you'll probably end up eating more, which could in the long term affect your waist line for the worst.

Are you into Gluten Free?

What is Coeliac Disease?

May is Coeliac Awareness month with the UK Coeliac awareness week from 13th to 19th May. If you know someone with this condition you will understand how debilitating it can be. Stomach and bowel pain of any kind can be very unpleasant. If you are a Coeliac you will have a lifelong autoimmune disease caused by a reaction to gluten and damages the lining of your gut. It can cause diarrhoea, constipation, vomiting, stomach cramps, mouth ulcers, fatigue and anaemia. Left untreated there can be severe complications and once diagnosed you would expect to be on a gluten free diet for life.


What foods contain Gluten?

Gluten can be found in wheat, barley and rye with some people having sensitivity to oats. On a gluten free diet you can eat meat, fish, fruit and vegetables, rice, potatoes and lentils. If you eat any processed or ready meals you will need to check that they are gluten free. Gluten free probably sounds like a buzz word to some people and removing gluten from your diet may sound like a good idea, but if you don't have any medical reason to do so then it is not necessary. 

What is IBS?

IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) has very similar symptoms to Coeliac Disease, but is distinguished by the fact the it affects the colon (or large intestine), while Coeliac and non-coeliac gluten sensitivity involve the small intestine. Some people with IBS get misdiagnosed and may actually have Coeliac disease. You may find a gluten free diet or reduced gluten diet alleviates the symptoms of your IBS and it has been shown that people that came up negative for Coeliac disease benefitted from a gluten free diet.


As an IBS sufferer it can be confusing, but I have found reducing my gluten intake has helped. On thing that does help during a flare up is DoTERRA peppermint oil. You can rub this on your tummy area and take it internally as well to alleviate symptoms. I also take some drops of DoTERRA ZenGest if I feel that my stomach needs it and again you can rub this on your stomach area during a bad bout.

Do you want a simple and fun way to feel better?

DoTerra oils are totally natural and non toxic. Anything that has citrus in it will be uplifting, while things like Peppermint and Lavender help to lift your mood. Don't know where to start?

You have already seen how lemon oil gets rid of scuff marks, can make your wooden furniture nice and healthy and makes a simple and effective surface cleaner. 

Do you want to refresh your dishcloths?

If your dishcloth is not smelling nice, then a simple trick is to rinse it so there is no debris on it, then put a couple drops of lemon oil in a bowl of water with some detergent and soak overnight. Rinse it thoroughly then leave it to dry. For safety reasons it is best not to put in the microwave as there is a potential fire hazard from doing this.

Try this simple trick to polish your wooden furniture

Do you want to clean your home without using lots of chemicals?

Did you know that there are lots of ways you can use lemon oil in and around your home? There are plenty of practical uses for this nifty oil and what's more it has such a fresh and uplifting smell it will make your home smell good too! You have already seen how lemon oil gets rid of scuff marks.

Do you want to have beautiful smelling furniture when you polish it?




 A simple way to get nourished and healthy looking wooden furniture is to put a small amount of olive oil onto a clean dry cloth or some kitchen towel then add a drop or two of DoTERRA lemon. Wipe this over your wooden furniture along the grain to brighten up dull wood. If you want to do larger areas, the proportion is around 40 drops of essential oil to one cup of olive oil. You can then buff up the wood with a clean dry cloth. Untreated wood will need 2 or 3 treatments to be fed and nourished and to bring out its natural shine. You will need to treat your wood about once a year using this method. If you are worried about wastage when making more, then put it into a small, suitably labeled bottle.
