Wednesday, the 12th of January, found me looking for a sheet of paper I had put on my shelf in my inbox. But I couldn't find it so I decided it might be time to declutter the shelf! As I was doing so, I stack of very heavy magnets fell on my foot. I knew immediately that I was in trouble! The pain shot up to my hip and was very sharp. I grabbed my peppermint oil which is housed on that shelf while I shouted, "Ouch oh ouch" several times. I just dumped the peppermint oil on my foot then asked a child to bring me ice. Well, it turned out I had broken two toes, one in two places. One of my friends asked me why I wasn't wearing shoes and the answer is that only steel toed shoes could have prevented that (or an uncluttered shelf!) I don't happen to wear steel toed around my home-based office. Hey, I don't wear any shoes! Hardly ever!
Well, I found the Panaway and Frankincense and Idaho Balsam Fir and put it on along with ice for 15 minutes every 20 minutes for the rest of the day. As a result, I only had a little bit of swelling around the ankle and top of the foot and the toes. However, a beautiful black line was forming on the toe. Admittedly, it was tough to walk. My kids said that I looked like a crippled old grandma. I said that I was a crippled old grandma! When I went to bed is when the pain increased. I realized my entire body was tense. My leg was jerking and jerking and my head throbbed. I almost yelled, "Drugs!! I want drugs!" But I reminded myself that I had had 12 children without pain meds and had had a broken neck without pain meds so buck up! Put the broken neck reminded me of Gary's Pain formula!!!!!
Gary's Pain Formula
20 drops Valerian
20 drops Vetiver
10 drops Helichrysum (sub Elmi or Palo Santo)
5 drops Clove
5 drops peppermint
10 drops Idaho Balsam Fir
Gary puts this in capsules and takes two full capsules of them as needed.
So I got out of bed, grabbed my oils and started just dropping two drops of each oil in my mouth and dumping several drops on my toes, foot and around my ankle. Within about 5 moments I noticed that the pain was decreasing in my foot and leg. My back started relaxing, my muscles all relaxed. Before I knew it I was awake. I had slept through the night! My toes and foot looked and felt so much better!
What would we do without these fantastic Young Living Essential Oils?
