What Brings You Joy? ARTICLE LEONIE FEATHERSTONE
I had a JOY filled day on Saturday! I began the morning talking about one of my passions, Supporting Emotions with Essential Oils, on a Community Radio Show. I followed it up with a day in the kitchen BAKING! THERE I WAS –
• Favourite Elton John tunes cranked up reminding me of happy memories touring through Europe in my youth • Busting out dance moves between the bench top and the stove feeling renewed energy vibrating in my cells and gladdening my heart • Enthusiastically adding a variety of doTERRA essential oils to my recipes to enhance the flavour and taste and feeling grateful for these gifts of the earth • Allowing the tantalizing aromas of savoury crackers to transport me across the years to my mother’s kitchen in the Outback of Australia where her home-made bread was not just a necessity but a delectable addition to our diet • Proudly viewing my results and happily watching the look of appreciation on Farmer Green’s face as he savoured the outcome AND THEN…
