The nutrition is very powerful and can cause cleansing reactions (your body is doing good things, but it can make you uncomfortable). You can google on EFT; I believe there's a free manual on how to do it, online. Try eating food with the green drink.

I have just entered the world of EFT and have really found it effective. I AM a doTERRA person and a LOVER of essential oils and aromatherapy! I actually have a daily routine of dropping a drop or 2 of Balance-a grounding blend that I call my nerve tonic-and Serenity-a calming blend-in my hands rubbing them together and inhaling deeply a few times. Then I rub that on my forehead and back of my neck and hold it there for a few seconds. I also diffuse it a ton during the day and it keeps me calm. I had a few days without it and could really tell the difference. I imagin if I coupled that with Yoga & meditation I would REALLY feel great! I am supposed to be on Zoloft and I refused so I feel super blessed to have found one of many natural and powerful solutions! Wow! so many great ideas!

Also, check out TAT (Tapas Accupressure Technique), and Zpoint Process. You can google all three. Donna Eden also has a book called Energy Medicine for Women. Lots of stuff in there about how to naturally deal with female stuff of all types through energy medicine. Donna also has videos on youtube with some good exercises... EFT definitely works.

I have had a very different story about the green drink and hope to get some help and some other information as I try to make myself healthier. The green drink has been making me sick. I can't seem to drink it without feeling sick for the rest of the day. I have found a green source powder from MOMs mixing it with OJ seems to be ok, but I don't have any benefits that you are all are talking about and I still have to eat something cause it doesn't fill you up at all. I have a lot of problems that most of the doctors can't determine, so I am trying to figure things out for myself. I am very intrigued about the EFT and Natural Calm, which a lot of you have mentioned. What exactly are these things and where can I find them? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

I would add one more thought (based on my own experience): If I find myself eating poorly, I'm fully aware of it - there is no denying that I'm eating junk. This may result in an overall negative feeling about myself to begin with, which may subconsciously contribute to depression. I also have to second what Tricia, above, said about being properly hydrated. I really don't think most people have any idea how important it is to be truly hydrated. Hi Robyne,

Things that help me are: Daily yoga practice before my kids get out of bed which means I have to be up at 6,30. Tricky in the winter when I have to light my wood fire first but I've been doing it for so long now its a habit!! Part of my practice involves tapping, cross patterning and activations at the beginning and relaxation techniques after all the postures. The style of Yoga I have been practising is Dru and its been my life saver!! Other things are treating myself to a Bowen, Reiki, Massage or Network Chiropractic treatment. One or all of these are also amazing!! I have three children and two ex partners and no family in Australia so I have to look after myself!! Other things which help are walking in the forest and a hugh network of friends. Having community dinners with other families help to avoid the social isolation. I have not given up chocolate yet....maybe one day!! Good luck and hope this helps someone... Stress I know!!
