Okay, so I've kinda of been on the crazy oils kick for a few months now. But I can't help it! I love them!!not only because they are natural remedies but the amazing scents produced from these little gems. More recently, I've been using lavender oil in my daugther's bath. It seems to relax her and myself, making an easy transation off to bed. (My daughter isn't the best sleeper so every little bit helps.) My husband recently had a really bad cold (a man cold, the worse cold in all the land), and I used a few different oils around the house and my daughter and I haven't gotten sick so far. That was two weeks ago now. Below are a few pictures of the oils I have been using so far!
Here's the peppermint oil I've used a few times. It's suppose to work for nausea and fevers. I did try it with my daughter, when she had a fever, it didn't work but her fever was from a vaccine she had received. However, I used it when I had the flu and I stopped throwing up, right after I used it. You can put it on your feet and put socks on for a fever reducer. For nausea put a drop or two on your chest and use a tissue with a few drops on it and take a few whiffs.
Next, is the eucalyptus oil, this oil works well when you have congestion. You can use it in a defuser, if you have one or, like the peppermint oil add a few drops to a tissue and take a few whiffs. You can also rub a few drops on your chest. It's like a natural Vicks! I use Now Essential Oils brand btw, the price is right and I like them all so far. However, there is many choices as far as oils if you are interested in purchasing some of them. All the oils featured on my blog today where about $10.
Lastly, the lavender is by far my fave!! It smells amazing! and I by far, use it the most out of all my oils. It's great for headaches or migraines, like all the other oils you can smell a few whiffs until you feel better or defuse it around your home. My favorite thing to do with this oil is to add to my bath! I just drop a few drops in a warm bath and enjoy! It's relaxing and a lovely end to your day. It does seem to help whisk me off to dream land! Xxoo
