Just a note, here at the beginning of this blog, to tell you how much we have appreciated the support of so many of you for Butterfly Express, LLC and its companion company, Butterfly Expressions, LLC. So many of you, both long-time and more recent customers, feel like friends or family!
Every purchase, every kind word, and every recommendation means the world to us. Your support has helped us enjoy the good times and weather some difficult days over the years. Your support has helped us grow and helped us be able to continue doing what we pictured in our minds all those years ago. From its tiny beginnings in my home’s kitchen as I tried to share with others the things our family was learning by study and experience (translate ‘experience’ to ‘illnesses’ and ‘accidents’, please), through hundreds of classes held here and, now, to all that happens here every day, your support and kindness has made it a joy to us!
I feel very blessed and very grateful. My heart is full this Thanksgiving season for all of you, and I wish you and your families the best of everything in the years to come!
When the words ‘self-care’ or ‘self-improvement’ are heard, people tend to conjure up different trains of thought, especially if they apply them immediately to themselves. For some of us, the idea of ‘caring for ourselves’ may get confused with ‘caring too much for self” and/or “caring too little for others”. But failing to look out for your own health can result in a decline in physical and/or mental health in so many gradual and insidious ways! And your poor health, or even lack of optimal health, can impact those around you in so many ways.
In May, we will be talking about KIDS AND ESSENTIAL OILS. Essential Oils are such a blessing in the lives of children — and in the lives of those who care for and love them! I can’t imagine raising my family without the blessings of essential oils and other natural remedies. This month we will be talking about some of my favorite oils, herbs, blessed waters, and more. See the full list of topics.
In September we will be talking about FIRST AID. We will cover a long list of minor things that Dr. Mom might deal with on a day to day basis. We will discuss cuts, burns, headaches, colds, diarrhea, allergy symptoms, anxiety, and so so so many more. Our discussion will include essential oils, herbs, minerals, and blessed waters. Please see the index at the bottom of the blog for a complete list of topics.
