#WCW number one: Lesley Rubinoff CNP. NNCP
As a certified Holistic Nutritionist and in practice for the
past 5 years, my soul
purpose in life is to change the lives of others, to educate, to inspire, to
motivate and to be a leader in the dynamic field of wellness. I believe
everything I have gone through has put me where I am today, I am the reason
others change their lives, because I am an example. I have the knowledge and
the tools to enable others to take control of their lives. My journey
into all of this started with me!

My top 3 favorite essential oils
*All 3 of these oils server multipurpose, here are a few ideas.
Lavender
Calming – Reduces anxiety and stress, calms the mind, a few
drops on the temples, bottom of the feet, neck and wrist or even directly on
your pillow.

Nauseas or motion sickness -Alleviate the symptoms of motion sickness, place a drop of
Lavender oil on end of tongue, behind the ears or around the navel.
Cuts – Put a drop
of lavender oil on cut to stop bleeding, clean wound, and kill bacteria.
Lemon
Detoxifying- To every 4 oz of water add 1 drop of lemon oil
for a natural body
cleansing of your liver, kidneys, and digestive system. Also helps boost
metabolism.
Heart burn- Add
three drops of lemon to water to help reduce heartburn and acid indigestion.

WE LOVE LEMON! |
Disinfectant
- Add Lemon oil to a spray bottle of water to clean tables, countertops, and
other surfaces. Kills germs and bacteria.
Congestion
- Can help clear congestion in the respiratory tract as it contains cooling,
anti-histamine and anti-inflammatory properties. Add 2 -3 drops to your
drinking water.
Peppermint
Headaches - Use one drop or peppermint oil and massage into
each temple for instant headache relief
Mental alertness and Concentration- Put 2 drops
in the palms of you hands and inhale, peppermint oil powerfully affects and
improves mental clarity and raises energy levels.

Post work out- Use 1-2 drops of peppermint on
