Peppermint tea is healing my sinus infection....again!

     Yesterday I woke up with a nasty sinus infection, probably due to the allergies that are plaguing our household. 
     I was super bummed out, because we have a family wedding coming up and a little vacation. I have lots to do before then. I don't have time for a sinus infection! 
     Despite that, it was raging. 
     I decided to go at it like I did last time — without a trip to the doctor. 
     It's not that I don't think the doctor is a good place to go for a sinus infection. It's just that I get them chronically, and I am not a big fan of antibiotics, which lead to all kinds of other complications for me. 
     So I reached for my Jordan Essential Oil Peppermint. I put a drop in my morning tea and a drop in my Sleepy Time Tea last night. (Warning: It is very, very strong. Be prepared! One drop is sufficient, but oil doesn't blend well, so you'll likely get it in the first few sips.) Later, my daughter rubbed my sinuses, helping with drainage. I'm still experiencing the effects of the infection today, but I already feel the healing. I'm about 10 times better than yesterday. So I added another drop to this morning's tea, and I'll keep doing it (while also taking a daily probiotic) until the symptoms clear up. 
     This is the second time I've used Peppermint oil to help fix my sinuses, and I'm pleased with the results!
     Earlier this year, I signed up to sell for Jordan, except I didn't plan to actually sell it. I don't have time to hold spas, but I am already using some of the products in the Mighty Strong Girls spas that we are holding as fundraisers. I figured I would simply take advantage of the discount for the products we were going to use.
     I didn't expect to get this excited about another home-based, direct-sales company. But I absolutely fell in love with Jordan! Why? 
      1. The company and founder are Jesus-centered. 
      2. The products are all made in America. In Missouri, in fact!
     3. They are all-natural products. 
     4. They are high quality. 
     5. I have loved everything I've tried so far. 
     The Sleepy blend has transformed nights for our ADHD child. The Dead Sea Salts are wonderfully relaxing and soothing. The magnesium lotion sucks the pain and weariness right out of my muscles. I could go on and on, and I probably will on future blog posts. 
     I don't expect to have parties or spas. But I would love it if you would shop in my store if there's something that interests you, because buying from my online shop (and my online Trades of Hope store) help give me an income so I can do my real job — Mighty Strong Girls.
