It was interesting hearing what she said, and I really appreciated what she said about them not being ‘cure alls’ but I really love essential oils for different purposes too. It’s amazing to think of how many plants/fruits have essential oils in them to use. I know God created them all for a purpose, and it’s cool people are finding out how to use them.
