Oil Discoveries

We are still loving our oils and trying new things each day with them.  I am so very grateful for the peace of mind and natural healing they provide.  I love trying new things with them and helping others find comfort and uses for using them.  I am doing an oils class this month on Facebook and will be posting an event reminder for it in the next week of so.  If you are interested in attending just keep watching Facebook for updates.  I am super motivated to teach people who are interested about the every day uses, weekly uses, ailment uses, cleaning uses, etc.  There is so much goodness in these oils and they have changed the way our family functions, so if I can bless someone else with the awareness, option, and education of these wonderful oils, I'm happy to!

Uses since my last oil post...

Colds:
-Oregano, Thieves, Lemon, Frankincense, Melaleuca A. in a capsules and take twice a day.  I used this remedy on EVERY adult in our house (which for a few more weeks is four adults) and wiped out every cold and trace of flu possibility that any of us carried over the December weeks and part of January.  
-Warm Apple Juice with 2-3 drops of Thieves helped immune systems and sore throats

Croup with Fever:
-Peppermint on Spine and bottom of feet for Fever for Croup: Oregano and Thieves diluted with coconut oil and rubbed on spine and bottom of feet to help immune system and the fighting off of the infection, RC and purification rubbed on chest and back to help break up nasty cough and RC, Purification, and Thieves difffused.  2-3 days later, no doctor visits, and no antibiotics or steroids and a happy and well Madie Brooke.

Heartburn:
Two drops applied directly to stomach and 10 minutes later my husband (who has been on perscription meds for this issue for 6 years) heartburn free in disbelief and slept through the night with no more heartburn.

Nausea:
Terrible turbulence on flight home from mission trip due to excessively high winds and sniffing Peppermint kept me from using the air sick bag...THANKFUL...a few others weren't so fortunate...

sniffing peppermint also benefitted my dad who kept getting sick from his pain meds due to his knee replacement surgery.

Headache:
Peppermint to the temples, across the forehead, and down the back of my neck got rid of my headache and helped me keep going for the day...

Ear Infection:
Purification and Lavender applied directly to the front of the ear and right behind it took the pain away almost instantly and the infection in less than 12 hours.  He'll remain nameless...but I've made an oiler out of him :)

Hip/Joint Pain:
She'll also remain nameless, but after days of limping around, she asked if I had an oil for that :)...10-20 minutes after application of PanAway, Valor, and Peppermint and no more limping.

Neck pain due to bulging disc:
This month was a bit tougher to solve since in addition to my neck bulge, I did something else straining my neck which causes significantly more pain than normal.  I used Idaho Balsim Fir which was a newby in addition to the PanAway and Valor that I usually use for this issue.  I can honestly say that it did not take away all of the pain but lessened it and made it more tolerable.  I did this for several days and then had a friend do some deep tissue and applied the oils several times after, and now have relief.

Eczema:
This issue was the whole reason I got into these oils in the first place, and since the end of the summer we have been able to manage Hannah's eczema without anymore serious outbreaks.  I bought the Lavender Lotion last month with hopes of being able to use it in addition to our daily remedy and it has been working beautifully.  She likes it, and it also helps her settle down at night at bed (which is more of an issue than I can even explain), so I'd call that a WIN!

Sleepy Baby:
Leah has also been waking up periodically throughout the nights looking for her paci and blanket, and just unsettled, so I have been diffusing plain ole Lavender in her room at bedtime and she has been sleeping beautifully.  Thankful. Just Thankful.

Coughs:
Breathe again roll on applied to the chest and back of the cougher (different guilty parties)

Germs:
Thieves hand sanitizer in my purse and ready to apply AT ALL TIMES...especially going through airports and after Wal-Mart runs

Stress:
Stress Away applied to my wrists before leading my family through the airports and finding our destinations without any issues.  Seriously can not explain the awesomeness of this...I am usually an anxious worrier and can work up some serious tension in my neck.  Tension free...thank you Stress Away!

Can't Explain the beauty of these oils!  They have kept us out of the germ infested doctor's offices and well through the holidays.  We are forever grateful to the Lord for His marvelous natural remedies He provided through HIS creation!!!
