Surviving Springtime Blooms

Tis the season for beautiful blooming flowers... and pollen! If you struggle this time of year, this post is for you! -Ashley Cribb

RECOMMENDED OILS

We swear by this 'Bloom Roller':

• 10 drops Peppermint, 10 drops Tea Tree, 10 drops Lemon, 10 drops Lavender, 10 drops Copaiba

• Top with V-6 carrier or fractionated coconut oil.

Other oils:

• RC, Eucalyptus (any variation), Raven, Ravintsara, Roman or German Chamomile, Frankincense.

DAILY HABITS

• Diffuse your choice of oils for 1 hour every 2 hours or as needed

• Put 2-3 drops in your hands, rub together and cup over your nose and inhale

• Rub roller ball under your nose, on wrists and on feet throughout the day

• Do a "lavender swipe" by taking one drop of Lavender Vitality and swiping it on the inside of your cheek or drop directly under the tongue

• Put 8-10 drops on a cotton ball and place in the vents of your car OR use a car diffuser if you have a USB port in your car

• Take a vegetable capsule with Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint 2 times daily. Do the same with Digize 2 times daily.

• Make your own nasal rinse salts - to 1 cup of fine sea salt add 5 drops lavender + 5 drops copaiba. Mix well, then use about 1 tsp in warm water for a nasal irrigaiton.

• Consider cutting out dairy - it promotes congestion!

What is your favorite thing about spring!! I love the blooms and being able to breathe well!
