For the past two months I’ve been rubbing essential oils on my son before school. Two weeks ago his teachers mentioned that they loved smelling him. I laughed with relief just glad that they were not bothered by him. Then I’d shared with them that I was using essential oils to help him relax and focus in class. My son is full a life and loves to have fun, so he can get easily distracted and have to be steered back on track.

Earlier this week I started using my night time blend on him before bed in addition to his school blend.
I’m happy to report that his teacher said he had his best two days of the school year thus far. He did his work and she didn’t have to call his name once.

This package right here started me on my journey to loving Young Living oils. I was so excited that I quickly snapped a picture before busting into each box. This was only 7 months ago. Initially I kept it packed away nicely with the intention of using it sparingly. I occasionally played around diffusing an oil here or there for the aromatic effect. Then I started coming down with something on the eve of my baby shower slumber party. This was no time to get sick and I was feeling yucky- post nasal drip and that weird throat feeling had me worried. With all of the drug restrictions during pregnancy I quickly pulled out my oils and jumped on google to see what others were using. I ran my diffuser day and night with Lemon and Peppermint while alternating Thieves and Purification. I applied the Thieves oil neat (term meaning undiluted) on the bottom of my feet. I also made a Thieves spray (which by the way doubles as a hand/surface spray) that I used to coat my throat. I even diffused overnight at the slumber party.  Before long, I was back to myself again. I love my Essential Oils!
