Brrrr…
Coming in from a play day out in the cold is easy.  Keeping germs at bay is much harder.

Protect yourself and loved ones through cold and flu season by using anti-viral and antibacterial essential oils.  They help strengthen and support the immune system helping to fight illness and infections.

Here’s a few essential oils to have on hand that can be used alone, or in blends below:

Eucalyptus globulus, Spruce, Fir, Ravensara, Geranium, Ravintsara,  Juniperberry, Cypress, Lemon, Lavender-Spike, Melissa, Rosewood, Black Pepper, Tea Tree, Bay Laurel, and Helichrysum.

Mix essential oils below and add to a dark glass bottle.  This synergy is good to make up during the winter season as it is beneficial for the whole family.

●  15 drops Ravensara  ●  10 drops Cypress  ●  10 drops Juniperberry  ●
●  10 drops Lemon  ●  10 drops Spruce-Black  ● 4 drops Tea Tree (optional).

Add 10-15 drops to a diffuser, a pocket inhaler, or try 6-8 drops added to a tablespoon of carrier oil such as jojoba for a warm bath.  One of my favorite ways is to add 10 drops of the synergy to 1 oz. of unscented lotion.  Rub this over the throat and chest area 3-5 times a day.  The feet are also a quick absorption site and beneficial for using this lotion.

Stay well~

’til next time,
