Although I don't know much about essential oil, except it makes brushing my teeth with baking soda taste much better, I would love to learn as much as I can. You write so beautifully Tisha, particularly the Peace and calming you spoke of. I have read about burning some oils, but I really never took it that seriously, so I wanted to ask you your personal experiences with it. After a full long and very stressful day, I find myself just abit over taxed and edgy, this sounds like something that would be very re-balancing, especially the way you describe it. Five children is quite a handful, I get exhausted looking after one baby, I can't imagine five little ones. I do know something about making medicinal oils,not essential oils, I believe there is a drastic difference :0. But I had gotten some special oil from a lady who makes it and she used winter green, camphor and arnica. It has helped to relieve so much pain. I hope to get the recipe off of her and share it around :). Thanks for the lovely post, Elaina
