HeavenScent for Addiction

Donation protected
In 2012 in the USA we were losing 112 people daily to Opiate Overdose.  I know that statistic because my only child Mike at the age of 22 was one of them.  Today in 2018 we are losing 174 people daily.  Although as a whole we have made great strides in combatting this epidemic more needs to be done.  Alternatives need to be offered to both those who are struggling and those who are loving the struggling.

Addiction is a team sport and eventually we all get to play.  The roller coaster of physical, emotional and financial burdens become crippling.

I began doing research on Therapeutic-Grade  essential oils and the effect they have on those struggling and like myself for those who have lost.  The results I have found are amazing.

If you speak to anyone with Substance Abuse Disorder they will tell you one of the main reasons they are scared to quit is because of their fear of detox.  In my research I realized there are many oils that come in the Starter kit that can aid in dealing with those ailments.    I realize that you may not feel empathy towards those who are addicted to drugs but then lets talk about those loving them, like myself.

For years I rode the Rollercoaster with Mike.  The financial burdens at one point caused me to lose nearly everything.  The mental emotions took over my life and I was no longer in control.  Almost 6 years later even though the ride stopped the pain somedays is unbearable.  

When I introduced therapeutic - grade essential oils into my life many of those things I had gone thru or was going thru were now in my control.  Thru diffusing I have been able to sleep thru the night for the first time in almost 6 years.  I have been able to find emotional support thru these oils.  They support energy, mood, positive thoughts and calm the nervous system.
During inhalation, aromatic molecules travel through the nose and affect the brain through a variety of receptor sites, one of which is the limbic system, which is commonly referred to as the "emotional brain."

My goal is to "gift" these kits to every single person who has been touched by the nightmare of addiction.  With that I need your help.  I have set this goal at 174 kits.  Each kit is approximately 160.00 plus tax and shipping.

We all deserve a chance to wake up and be happy.  This kit will not solve the disease of addiction and will certainly not make missing our loved ones go away but it is another alternative to living a happy life.

Thank you for your help, on behalf of myself and my Beautiful Angel Mike.
