Very superstitious


Being raised Greek, it is not so strange to have evil eyes, religious icons and even garlic hanging in every corner of my house. 



  • The Websters dictionary definition of The evil eye : an eye or glance held capable of inflicting harm
The Evil Eye is a kind of negative power we all more or less carry within ourselves. If we stare too long on a person, animal or even an object we may inflict damage through this power. It is often totally unconsciously, but the staring in itself often comes from admiration or envy, which are perfect channels for the Evil Eye.

I grew up with this superstition ingrained in me and it was never shocking to see people making the sign of the cross and spitting to ward off the evil.  Although it is most definitely a Pagan symbol, the eye or a blue bead is often worn with a cross. The crosses here for example were given to my children by their godparents at their baptisms. This candle or "lambatha" is used for the "Anastasi" mass (Resurrection mass) for Orthodox Easter and there is an evil eye affixed 














Recently I have started making my own evil eye collection of jewelry and decorative wall hanging ornaments to add to my CraftyLeftDee Etsy shop. I would love to hear your feedback on the items below in the comments!

Join Young Living Essential Oils


Join Young Living Essential Oils

I’m so thankful for Young Living Essential Oils. They have changed my family’s wellness in incredible ways. I joined Young Living in February 2013, when I ordered a Premium Starter Kit. They have become a very important part of my everyday life and I don't leave the house without them.

Young Living Essential Oils are amazing for…

  • supporting a normal immune system
  • promoting restful sleep
  • balancing the emotions
  • easing occasional stress and minor anxiety
  • and SO MUCH MORE!
I love the 10 Everyday Oils – Thieves, Stress Away, PanAway, Joy, Purification, Lavender, Tea Tree, Peppermint, Lemon and Frankincense. These oils are so versatile and we find ourselves using them every day.

All about Thieves!

Thieves Product LineThieves® was created based on research about four thieves in France who covered themselves with cloves, rosemary, and other aromatics while robbing plague victims. This proprietary essential oil blend was university tested for its cleansing abilities. It is highly effective in supporting the immune system and good health. I can’t tell you enough good stuff about this oil blend.
I MUST tell you about the Thieves Household Cleaner. It is effective, economical and it is the ONLY cleaner that I have at my house. I use it as a veggie wash, toilet cleaner, sink and counter spray, mirror and window cleaner and more. Oh, and did I mention that it’s non-toxic? It is fabulous!
We also enjoy using Young Living’s Thieves spray, wipes, mouthwash, foaming hand soap, hand purifier and toothpaste.
Thieves hand purifier and spray go with us everywhere for potty seats, restaurant tables and for cleaning our hands whenever we get back in the car after being out and about.
Thieves cleaner has also been proven to KILL black mold! Bleach only bleaches mold but Thieves actually attacks and kills mold. All with out any toxins or chemicals!

Why Did I Choose Young Living Over Every Other Company Out There?


I did a LOT of research. A. Lot. I also used several other essential oil brands before I settled on using Young Living for our family because of their SEED TO SEAL quality commitment. Young Living is known around the globe for their unmatched commitment to purity and authenticity.  I believe in Young Living, their incredible therapeutic-grade essential oils and their purpose to bring wellness and abundance to the world.  I believe in their integrity and desire to provide the best possible 100% therapeutic grade essential oils for their members. I am so thankful to have chosen this essential oil company for our family.
I love to share and talk about anything related to natural living like herbs and whole foods, so chatting about essential oils fits right in. :) I want to share them with the world!
It is so easy to join Young Living to receive wholesale prices. There are no monthly order requirements or annual fees. Here are some frequently asked questions that may help clarify some things for you…

Young Living Wholesale Member FAQs

Why Should I Become A Wholesale Member?
Great question! This is a fabulous option that provides you 24% off retail price! As you use the oils and you share your testimonials with friends and family, you have the option {zero pressure!} of earning commissions when others join and purchase Young Living oils. Win-win!
Is there a monthly order minimum?
NO. You can just order what you need when you need it.
What kit do you recommend that I get started with?
I highly recommend one of the amazing Premium Starter Kits {see the graphic below!} because it gets you the most bang for your buck! I’m a bit partial to the Everyday Oils Premium Starter Kit {11 bottles of oil!} because it’s what I started with, but the Thieves and NingXia Red kits are also a wonderful way to begin your Young Living journey. If you have questions about the difference between the kits, just shoot me an email! 
:)
I just really want to use oils myself. Do I have to sell Young Living products to be a wholesale member?
NO. There are ZERO obligation to sell oils when you join as an wholesale member. However, if you ever change your mind, you can jump right in. :) I provide business support and education to help you get your business off the ground should you decide to go that direction.

Are you *sure* there are no monthly order requirements?
To retain an active account, you have to place one 50PV minimum order per year. If you miss that deadline, you can reactivate your account by calling Young Living Customer Care with a 100PV (point volume) order. Easy peasy.
If someone wants to join Young Living through me, what do I give them?
When you join, you will be assigned your own member number to give to your friends and family who are interested in joining as well.
Is there a way to save even more money? 
Yes! The Essential Rewards program offers reduced shipping, credit for free oils & more!  Plus each month there are great promotions for free oils when you place an Essential Rewards order. I love free stuff!

Free Gift!

Note: If you join Young Living through me with one of the Premium Starter Kits I will send you a free Essential Oil Pocket Reference valued at $25 to help you get started on your oily journey. This book will empower you to use essential oils to the fullest!
Young Living also has monthly promotions and sales which enable you to build up your “oil stash” on a budget.
Will you walk me through how to to join Young Living Essential Oils?
Follow the directions below! :)
What kind of support do I get after joining Young Living through you?
This for me is the exciting part! When you join Young Living through me, I don’t leave you hanging or wondering what to do next.  You will get access to our private Triharmony Facebook group that is a wealth of information. You can search the archives, ask questions, get tips on how to use your oils, etc. Our Triharmony community are incredibly supportive! Also, if you plan to build as a business I am here and our Triharmony Abundance Group will help and support you in your goal to prosperity. 

Step by step instructions on how to join Young Living Essential Oils:

1. Use this Young Living link  to begin the enrollment process. It’s super easy!
2. I highly recommend the Wholesale Membership. There are NO strings attached for being a wholesale member. You aren’t required to order monthly or anything. It is AMAZING! If you select “Retail Customer” you will not receive wholesale pricing, you won’t have access to starter kits and you will pay retail cost which is 24% more than wholesale. 
3. Make sure my member number {1665159is in both the Sponsor ID and Enroller ID spots.
4. Be sure to include your email address. If you don’t, I have no way to invite you to the Triharmony Facebook support group and I can’t support you as you begin your journey with essential oils. This support is vital for empowering you to use the oils to the fullest. :)
5. Choose the kit you want. {I highly recommend one of the Premium Starter Kits.} Then proceed to check out. You can skip the Essential Rewards part for now unless you would like to join ER right away.
6. That’s it! Your oils will be on their way to your doorstep!
