Every morning before starting my day I pick up Mi Magick (my name for Migraine Magick, because it is for so much more than just Migraines!) and spritz, every night before going to bed I do the same.  This has become part of my ritual, as natural as brushing my teeth, as habitual as drinking my coffee.  My stress has been reduced; my tension headaches are more manageable. 

 

It is hard for me to imagine now, but my first thoughts when Lisa told me about Migraine Magick were that I would get a bottle to support a friend, maybe it will smell nice, but I did not believe it would be if any benefit to me.

I suffer from tension headaches, the kind that start in the shoulders and neck and the radiate up throughout your head.  Sometimes the pain so bad all I could do was climb into bed and hide away from the world.  As I saw it, the only relief was sleep.  Pills only lessened the pain, made me loopy and made normal interactions near impossible, so I avoid taking them if possible.

 

Then came Migraine Magick.  Like most people, I was skeptical.  I listened to what Lisa had to say about her success with overcoming migraines and when asked if I wanted to try, I thought why the heck not.  I did not understand the mechanics of how it worked, but, if nothing else, looking at the ingredients, the aromatherapy would help me relax.  The lavender and peppermint alone have helped me in the past – I have used the essential oils in baths, I burn candles with those scents when trying to clear my head.  So when the first bottle came I spritzed and thought, “I love this smell!”  

 

 

I jumped in with gusto.  I figured if I was going to try this stuff,  I was going to follow Lisa’s instructions so that when I told her it wasn’t for me I could honestly say that I tried.  At night when I spritzed before going to bed, I would think; relax, relax, relax – in the morning when I spritzed I would think; I love me, today will be a good day.  When I started to feel a tension headache, I grabbed Mi Magick and spritzed, spritzed, spritzed.  I used the eraser on targeted areas and thought, please let this work.   

 

The more I used Mi Magick, the better I began to feel.  I noticed that if I used Mi Magick at the onset of tension headaches they became more manageable and I could get through the day without hiding away.  Then I realized I was being proactive in my approach to dealing with tension headaches.  If I could keep my body and mind in a relaxed enough state then many of the tension headaches would be defeated before they even appeared.  

 

 

For me, Mi Magick is so much more than pain management.  It is a lifestyle.  It has helped tremendously with my tension headaches, but more than that, it has opened a world of possibilities in centering my mind, body and soul.  My journey with Mi Magick has just begun and I cannot wait to find out what other “magic” Lisa has in store for the world.
