Lavender

Lavender is something I never travel without. For a long time, I suffered with terrible insomnia. Lavender was a huge help in assisting me to getting sleep and rest. I just rubbed a few drops of the oil on the soles of my feet and lower back and temples. Before long, I would be counting sheep…
A drop of lavender in a bath makes for a relaxing soak.
One drop of lavender may be used under armpits instead of deodorant.
A drop of lavender on a cotton swab put in a vent or a fan makes the room smell wonderful. I use this method when traveling if the hotel room smells like stale smoke.
And if you start to get a cold sore on your lips, put a drop of lavender on it a couple of times a day and it will disappear!

Help Your Immune System With Essential Oils

Essential oils contain hundreds of molecules that work together to kill viruses and bacteria and to support our bodies’ health. Unlike drugs, viruses do not develop resistance to essential oils because each batch of oil is unique depending on a growing season’s temperature range, wind, rain, time of the harvest, and more. For this reason, oils can be more effective at beating cold and flu than drugs – and they continue to work long after a virus would have developed resistance to antibiotics.

Essential Oils for Cold and Flu: Best Essential Oils and How to Apply Them:
Oregano - One of the most popular essential oils for treating everything from cold and flu to warts, oregano is considered a “hot” oil (it will heat up and tingle) and should be used cautiously. Do not apply to the face or throat without diluting it first with pure olive oil or another fatty oil. If you do get some on your face, dilute with butter or oil, NOT water! Oregano is best applied on the back, shoulders, and the bottoms of the feet.

Lemon - Lemon is great for boosting the immune system from within. Take a drop or two in every glass of water throughout the day, or use in capsules. Lemon is photosensitive so it should not be applied to skin.

Cinnamon - Another hot oil, cinnamon is great for boosting the immune system and has been shown to support the pancreas and digestive system (in Chinese medicine, the pancreas/spleen relates to the immune system). Apply on the feet or inhale.

Frankincense - One of the most powerful immune-boosting oils, real frankincense does not come cheap ($80-100 for 15mL) but it’s worth its weight in gold. Frankincense is mild on the skin and can be applied anywhere. For persistent colds, fill a capsule with 10-20 drops of frankincense and take on an empty stomach*.

Peppermint and Eucalyptus - These oils are cool and soothing and are known to clear the respiratory system and ease breathing. They can be applied directly to the neck, throat, chest, and back to open the lungs or inhaled to soothe the sinuses. Peppermint and eucalyptus are safe to apply on the skin.
