First, EOs means essential oils. When I decided to pursue this, that confused me for a minute as some blogs assume you know that already. What started this whole idea was the problem I have of rebound type headaches. Since I was 12, so for 20 years now, I have experienced migraines. When a migraine breaks through the preventative medications, I end up taking prescriptions to break the migraine and often end up with residual or aura headaches for several days. Taking too much over the counter medication to combat the regular headaches can perpetuate the headaches due to the idea of rebound headaches from too much medication. Thanks to another youth minister at a service trip last summer, she introduced me to peppermint oil as a way to deal with a headache that would not go away. I was skeptical, but it worked. It only took me the better part of a year to pursue this more fully.
Second, I know it can be confusing as there are many things labeled essential oils or aromatherapy and such.
Third, who are good resources?
The answer to the third point will help with the second. I have found the following blogs to be incredibly helpful as I decided to start on the EO journey.
More will show up as we go along.
Also, as I do not have time (or the memory) to check all these sites and the others I follow for their daily updates, I use NetNewsWire as a RSS reader which helps me with all the many blogs and news sources I follow. It is a great tool.
