I think the best way to introduce you to my oils is to share with
0:04
you the story of how I found them. I have traveled most of my
0:08
life and I’ve spent a significant amount of time
0:11
outside the country. And Egypt has always been on my list. So
0:15
last year (2019) when an opportunity to go came around, my friend Joel
0:20
and I jumped at the chance, and we ended up spending six weeks
0:24
in Egypt working on a farm. While we were there, we took a
0:29
Nile cruise. And it was an amazing experience. You went up
0:35
and down the Nile, stopping at different ports, being able to
0:38
get off the boat, check things out and see how different towns
0:43
or communities along the Nile lived.
0:48
One of the spots that we stopped at was Aswan. And during our
0:53
trip our good friend Auf, who’s a native Egyptian, had listened to
0:58
us, and watched us, and we had talked about many times,
1:01
essential oils. Joel and I both use essential oils in many
1:05
aspects of our lives and have for many years. So we obviously
1:10
took oils with us we shared with Auf how much we enjoyed them and
1:14
the different things they did for our lives. Well, Auf
1:18
surprised us. And when we were in Aswan, his very good friend
1:23
Moody, who lives there, happens to be a fifth generation
1:27
perfumer and as specializes in essential oils.
1:33
When Joel and I walked into this place we [meow], pardon my
1:39
language, but most of you listening to this probably
1:41
already love essential oils. To walk into a three story
1:45
building with all glass shelves with all these glass jars filled
1:50
with oils was amazing. And so we got to spend the evening… Moody
1:56
and his brother spent the evening bringing out oils
2:00
letting us smell everything we wanted to, letting us try stuff.
2:04
He was bringing us different teas and native drinks of his
2:08
community of Aswan. And we have the whole place to
2:12
ourselves. So I remember at one point Joel and I looked at each
2:15
other and it was the first time I felt like super VIP!
2:21
And we were deciding to throw caution to the wind and buy all
2:25
these oils. We ended up buying over 7000 milliliters of oils, no
2:31
joke, and we brought them all back home to the States and when
2:35
I got mine… all these oils home I realized that there
2:39
was no way that I was going to be able to use all these oils.
2:44
And to hold on to such wonderful, different high vibration oils
2:50
and not share them didn’t seem right. And so that is where
2:54
Inshallah Essential Oils came into existence.
