My favorite oils are always changing, depending on my moods and what my family needs, so I'm periodically going to put a post together to highlight my current Fab Four! First up...
Thieves • I'm completely in love with Thieves; it's without a doubt the most-used oil in my diffuser. It is great for so many things, besides just smelling super yummy. Thieves is one of the most powerful blends for immune support and can be used topically, aromatically, and internally. I like to add a drop to hot apple cider or hot tea. It is also used in a whole line of YL Thieves Products which include household cleaners, laundry soap, oral care, hand soaps and sanitizers, and more! I haven't tried all of these products, but believe me, they are on my list!
Stress Away • This is the oil that turned my hubby from a skeptic into a believer! I rub it on the back of his neck to help him unwind when he's had a long day at work. I apply it to myself when I'm feeling overwhelmed or generally stressed (which is fairly common when you have four littles). We've used it on our necks and upper back during road trips to cut down on the (physical and emotional) tension that driving can create. It was great to have in a roll-on bottle during my sister's wedding, too. I’ve even used it to calm myself down during dentist appointments, which always stress me out. Just opening the bottle and inhaling deeply helps.
Peace & Calming II • I mean, it's all in the name, right? Mamas of littles, you need this stuff, both for yourself and the babies. My kids are pretty good sleepers generally, so I don't know if these blends help them sleep better, but they definitely help with the calming-down-before-bed! I notice I wake up more refreshed when I apply P&C II to the bottoms of my feet before bed. It's also great in the diffuser to help support good emotions, something we desperately need in our house!
Purification • I mostly use this blend as an air freshener/purifier, but its actually far more versatile than just aromatic! Because Purification contains citronella, it makes a great insect repellent, but if you forget to apply before going out, you can rub a little on any bites you get for some itch-relief. My favorite uses for this blend include diffusing in the bathroom (because boys) and putting a few drops on a cloth and throwing it in the dryer with a load of clothes. (Not because I've left them in the washer so long that they've gotten sour... no, I never ever do that...)
