How Essential Oils are Keeping Us Healthy!

Over the last five years I began to introduce essential oils into my closet of healing goodies.  I didn’t know until recently how important it is to make sure I am only using the purest and highest quality available if we were going to ingest EO’s. 

Right around September my sweet friend Karli introduced me to a blog she found in her search for all natural cleaning products.  Let’s just say this blog is an endless supply of amazing health and cleaning tips all with using EO’s.  I was lost on that blog for hours.   I’m sure you are very interested to read that blog too…right???  No worries, I will share it with you in a little bit. 

But first, let me continue with how I am using doTerra EO’s to help us remain healthy. 

Why doTerra and not the many other brands out there?

I use doTerra essential oils because I can trust in their quality and safety for our entire family.

doTerra Essential Oils are naturally safe, purely effective - 100% Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils…which means they are completely safe to ingest!! 

After reading all about ON GUARD and its many amazing health benefits I quickly ordered 3 bottles, along with the toothpaste and hand soap.  

For years our children have complained about the variety of toothpastes I have bought for them to use.  Finding excellent quality toothpastes without fluoride is NOT easy.  Let’s just say they didn’t enjoy brushing their teeth and it was a constant battle with a few of them because of taste and texture.  That is until I bought the doTerra on Guard toothpaste.  We all love it!  Every single one of us.  It kills bacteria in our mouths while helping to protect us from getting sick and our teeth feel so clean. 

Why do I NOT give our family fluoride? 

Please educate yourselves on the real dangers of ingesting this into your blood stream every single time you brush your teeth.  If you want more information ask in the comments and I will give you a website to read.  But don’t say I didn’t warn you first, the truth is a bit overwhelming and scary.  We have been fluoride free in our home for over 9 years now.   I’m proud to say we don’t have any cavities either.   The kids might need braces but they have excellent dental health!

One of the most important line of defense I use to keep all of us healthy is washing our hands with soap and water every time we come home from school or being out in public.  

I couldn’t wait for my order to arrive as the winter months were quickly approaching.  I wanted to be sure I was doing everything I could to keep all of us healthy and avoid getting the flu. 

I ordered six of the roller bottles below and created my very own BE WELL BLEND:  16 drops of ON Guard, 16 drops of Oregano, 16 drops of Melaleuca, and 15 drops of fractioned coconut oil.  Every night before the children go to bed they roll it on their feet.  If they begin to get just a sniffle I roll it down both sides of their spine.  This combo is excellent for diffusing in their rooms or around the house with a few drops of lavender to kill airborne germs as well.

You can also order them in black which is very helpful to keep the sunlight from changing the strength of the EO’s.

*When using oregano EO on your skin be sure to mix it with a drop or two of fractioned coconut oil.  It is very potent and can cause sensitivity to the area it is applied to. 

You can purchase 16 oz of the organic fractioned coconut oil I use here.

If they have a cough, sore throat, or feel a little icky - I make them hot tea using two drops ON Guard, one drop LEMON, and one teaspoon of raw manukah honey.  They now ask for it because it tastes so good and helps them feel better so quickly!!

You can also add ginger  EO to the tea for its healing properties as well. 

After ordering all of the above I contacted Rebekah of Camp Wanderer and truly began my journey falling in love with doTerra products and their company!   I am now an independent sales representative for them and so proud to represent a company that demands excellence of every product they produce! 

In the coming weeks I will be sharing more about my very favorite three oils and a blend I created that is helping several of our impossible sleepers SLEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
