no...not some crazy drugs....








Yes, i know this picture must look like I was participating in some crazy drug party but i must tell u this is not the case. You see really I was just participating in some amazing natural ear candeling. You see my friend Sam had an ear ache and I told her about these ear candles i had seen my mom do before and then we were off! So on the way back from costco we stopped at the local HiHealth and bought some ear candles and ear oil. Then that night around 11pm we started! i did sams first and oh man they were amazing! i accedently cut the candle a little to close and flung burning paper on to sams head!.....but no worries blew that bad boy off and no harm was done! then sam did my ears and voilla we were wax free!






the following night happened to be A Christmas Story night at the Rowlan home. I preceded to tell them the adventure and it seemed to all start again. Stacey this time was off to the local HiHelath and I began candeling away. First I did Brieson (cuz i think shelly was a little skeptical!) then i did shelly. Both of them are now cured of there wax! Shelly can even hear out of a non-hearable ear!!!! maybe this will help her singing voice for the recital huh Tausha!....not that she needs any help!!!






Anyways today I finished off our box of ear candles with my hubby Trustan...also a skeptical Rowaln. he believes it really doesnt do anything and the smoke makes all the gorgeous waxy chunks form in the candle.






maybe you should check it out and write your opinion!






this last picture is my own personal ear waxed candle....thought you might like to take a peek!




also note that my writing today was in a nice ear waxy yellow for youto get the full affect!

Christine - a few minutes after the "session" me and my mom, lost all of our sense of hearing, I dont know if it was the candles or not, I'll let you make that assumption.

Okay but really, It feels weird, like you can actually FEEL the wax going up the candle. It feels like a vacuum sucking out stuff from your ear. Yes, it does look like a crazy drug thing, but it really works, try it!

I am a believer now, because my left ear has been kind of clogged up or sealed shut or something for about 3 months now, but now, for the first time I can actually HEAR out of that ear--kind of, not totally, maybe I need another treatment. We should have a Christmas candle party--and when everyone gets there, just start sucking the wax out.
