Lots of us have abnormal fat that isn't budging regardless of diets and exercise. For some of us that means a diagnosis (if you're lucky enough to have a well-informed doctor) of lipedema. That's a fancy word for lots of toxic fluids and fats which accumulate disproportionately in your legs and arms and can make life miserable both physically and emotionally.
Emotionally, the inability to control the progression of the symptoms through diet or exercise is terribly frustrating, as we are fighting this monster daily.
Besides lack of control, we feel estranged socially, limited in our ability to do activities or to exercise. In fact, it is most commonly recommended for lipidemic patients not to exercise. Yes, really! The loss of this lifestyle brings on loss of hope, despair, rejection, pessimism about our future and even grieving over the loss of the lifestyle we once envisioned for ourselves. It's called "painful fat" for emotional reasons as well as physical.
But we can't just stay in that mindset.
Be active at whatever level does not make you breathe hard (that shuts down the lymphatic system). Focus. Concentrate your energies. Take the initiative to research, to participate, to put your life experience next to someone else's and compare notes on what works. Your energy is needed.
I am not a doctor, nor am I asking that you do not use yours. But--I have found by personal experience and by years of research and training that I do NOT have to be trapped in poor health, or watch helplessly while someone I love suffers. Use this blog to learn about my experiences with alternative and complimentary health practices that give my body what it needs so it can heal itself. Perhaps you will discover answers of your own.

Mind Body Spirit connection--Don't Shoot the Messenger
Do you sometimes get random pains and wonder why?
Don't rush to the medicine chest to find a pain killer.
Instead, you can find out that there is a message in the pain, stemming from trapped emotions or spiritual pain. These trapped energies signal the brain with a pain message from somewhere in the body where these energies are housed. Find out what the message is and the pain goes away on its own. It's called energy healing. Simple.
Learn how to do this for yourself and others. It's a life changer. I can help.

Swollen lymph glands and feet? What to do........? Try this.
Have you ever wondered which essential oils you could use when your feet
get swollen and your lymph glands get sore? I use this blend in a
lotion when I foot zone my customers who have stagnant lymph ducts in
their ankles and feet. Here's the ratio: 10 drops tangerine, 6 dr
juniper berry, 3 dr geranium, 2 dr rosemary and 1 dr cilantro. I make
enough of this to put in some good spa lotion to keep on hand. I use
doTERRA essential oils because I've tried enough of the competing brands
to know that they're no competition for the purity and integrity of the
doTERRA brand oils. They are the ones I trust after years and years of
comparisons.

Finding the puzzle pieces through education
I am on a healing journey, and I gave up giving away my control of my
own health years ago. I have taken and finished certification courses
in kinesiology, reflexology, foot zoning, craniosacral therapy, emotion
clearing, anatomy & physiology, naturopathy, nutrition, herbology,
aromatherapy, essential oils and have affiliated with state and
international holistic associations. I no longer have to react out of
fear to a prognosis I didn't understand, or a procedure/medication I
didn't choose. This is in my hands, and I choose to put all the rest of
it in God's Hands. Together we will beat this thing called lipedema.
Are you with me?

Why I LOVE doTERRA Essential Oils
Since 2012 I have used these oils on a daily basis to address every physical and emotional issue we have faced except childbirth. If you have not researched essential oils, then you don't know that most (90+%) are diluted, altered with chemicals and fertilizers, dummied down to be cheap and created from distressed plants. doTERRA never does that. In fact, they use 54 different tests and independent third-party labs for EVERY BATCH of oils they collect from around the world!!! Integrity is their mantra. I've tried and tested other brands and no one compares. No one, no matter how big their name or how big their brand. No one. Trust doTERRA to give you the highest vibrational frequencies and help.

It's time to start up my free classes again. Sept-Dec 2018
My name is Erica Cabacungan. I work at Be Ready Inc with my family, and I am offering free wellness classes here at Be Ready Inc for whoever is interested. I call this effort BeReadyToBeWell.
We are located at 1195 Linda Vista Drive, Suite A in San Marcos CA 92078. 760-966-3600. ericabeready@gmail.com Must RSVP to reserve your spot.
On the first and second Mondays of the month at 10:00 a.m., I will give a free introduction class to all who are first-time experiencers of oils. These Newbies will get a FREE INTRODUCTORY KIT of three oils, instructions for hundreds of ways to use them, and an assignment to try at least 10 different applications at home. Then report back the next Monday to share with all the other Newbies on the many discoveries that you made. That's it. No strings attached, nothing to buy. Keep the kit. Just come to learn and make new friends. Mon. Sep 3/ Sep 11, Oct 1/ Oct 8, Nov 5/ Nov 12, Dec 3/ Dec 10. RSVP
On Mondays at 11:00, Sept-Oct, then again Nov-Dec I will teach Basics for Beginners. This is a more comprehensive overview of the who, what, how, when, where, why and why should I care aspects of using essential oils. There are eight skill-building classes. This will repeat in 2-month increments. You can use the introductory kit, bring your own oils or experiment with the ones I have. No buying is necessary, although I will have various oils available for purchase if you should find something that works particularly well for you. Newbies welcome to stay. RSVP
Once you have finished those two intro classes, or if you're already quite familiar with oils already, you may sign up for my ADVANCED CLASSES. There will be a $50 supplies fee required for supplies replenishment per course because we will be using lots of my oils and making DIY "make and takes" and experimenting with a wide variety of oils in their various uses. Each course meets weekly on Wednesdays from Sep-mid Dec. You may sign up for however many courses you can handle at the same time. These are not certified diploma courses. There is no homework. Rather, they are based on my own experience and extensive research over the past several years. They are designed to create personal awareness, get you "oily" and enhance your own ability to use and experience oils. I will encourage you at this point to start your own oils library at home for your use.
$50 donation per course. My oils of choice are doTERRA, but you may bring your own brand.
