Let me preface this post by saying it's never a good idea to get your hand in the way of a sharp object! That said, life happens.
One of the reasons I embraced YL 7 years ago was this: preparedness. We live on a farm, and minor accidents are not an uncommon thing. I've gotten really good at triaging what "we can fix ourselves" and what needs bigger attention by professionals who stitch for a living. I've heard it said that "your oils are expensive ". True. They can be pricey, but quality products generally are. Let's compare pricing here: (We have a high deductible to meet, so all expenses would have been out of pocket) Plan A: 💰A trip to the ER for a stitch up while company was in from out of town (time) 💰A covid test (personally not a fan of this) 💰Time waiting in the emergency room with a bunch of other people who might actually be sick. 💰💰stitches (according to this article, on insurance, it's 500$ per stitch https://www.advisory.com/.../why-does-a-hospital-stitch... ) 💰Avoiding a conversation as to what recommended toxins I should be adding to my body for the next 10 days. (priceless) 💰💰💰💰💰💰= roughly 1000$ or more (based on the link above, with insurance it probably would have been about 5 stitches) OR Plan B: 👀 Taking a look at my wound and recognizing that it was stitch worthy but relatively superficial. * Applying the practical knowledge gleaned from reading and listening to others in our Young Living community. #PricelessEducation *Having the tools on hand and having confidence in them. (Add Thieves foaming hand soap and Inner Defense to the list here) 💰 I estimate that I spent about 100$ on Plan B. 🙌🙏💗 #winnerwinner Economics. Are our oils worth it? You betcha!
