What's in my Natural Medicine Cabinet?


This is what's in my medicine cabinet. They're all safe and they work.

 -Lemon - I take 2 drops in my drinking water every day to gently detox my body. Works well with Lavender and peppermint for allergies.

 -Peppermint - We rub on tired muscles, use to open airways, rub on back of neck to cool down, rub on the stomach to help digestion, helps control appetite.

-Lavender - Lavender is calming for your mind and your skin. It works wonders on any skin irritations, relieves pain from sore gums and chapped lips. It also helps calm me down. I diffuse it to help sleep.

-Oregano - Boosts our immune systems and fights off any bugs. I don't often use oregano as we very rarely catch bugs these days. But it is there if we need it.

-Frankincense - Calming, good for skin, cellular health and gives other oils a boost. I also use a drop on my thumb applied to the roof of my mouth for head tension.

-Tea Tree - Soothes skin irritations, good for nail health, removes permanent marker from your skin. Soothes sunburnt skin. Use for head lice.

OnGuard - Protective blend. Roll on kids' feet when you are concerned what is going around school, sports, day care etc. Gargle with water for a sore throat. Use as hand sanitiser. Diffuse.

- Breathe or Easy Air as it is called in Australia - I roll it on my chest to help open my airways, use in panic attacks to help get air, diffuse while sleeping to help with airways which can help with hubby's snoring.

-DigestZen - Rub on tummy for aches or if I have a big meal and feel bloated or uncomfortable. Sometimes I take it internally to help digestion by putting a drop or two in water and drink it. Rub over the bridge of the nose for sinus relief.

-Deep Blue/Ice Blue - Rub on muscles before and after workouts, good for cramps, aches and pains. Ease tension.

-Clary Calm - This is the Women's Monthly Blend. I use Clary Calm because it's soothing and calming. It helps with cramping and balances my mood. It makes me feel happy and calmer.

-Correct X - This is a petroleum-free, preservative-free ointment that absorbs quickly and keeps wounds clean as well as soothing them. I use it on dry lips and cracked heels.

Throw in a bottle of veggie caps to put oils in to take internally, a bottle of fractionated coconut oil to blend my oils with and a bottle of colloidal silver and that is my medicine cabinet. These are the products I use to keep my family healthy every day.

 You can buy everything except the colloidal silver here. However, if you would like to sign up for a wholesale account (no obligations - order when and if you like) and get 25% discount, you can contact me (see below).

doTERRA Purify Oil. Where do I start? This one bottle of oil can do so much. Surely I'm not the only person who has put a load of washing on and forgotten about it until hours later, or the next morning even. I would wash the clothes again but they still had a stale smell when we wore them. Now I just put 1 or 2 drops of Purify on a cloth and throw it in the wash. The clothes come out smelling fresh and nobody knows the difference. (See below for blog on essential oils and plastic as mentioned in the video) We love our cats, but I really don't like the kitten stage when they pee on things and nothing gets rid of the smell. We have a suede lounge chair that I was ready to take to the dump because I could not get rid of the smell out of it. I tried everything. I would think it was good and then as soon as we had a bit of humid weather, the smell would return. Then I made up a spray bottle of equal parts white vinegar and filtered water, added 20 drops of doTERRA

Natural Cat Scratch Deterrent

Image
Time and time again my essential oils amaze me. But using them to deter the cats from clawing our suede lounge takes the cake. W e have to chase them away from the lounge every day. We hear that dreaded clawing sound and run to chase them before they do permanent damage. I came across a recipe last week and tried it. It did make the cats stop and sniff around, but they still ended up clawing the lounge. I tried a new blend each day until I finally found this one that has stopped them clawing altogether. I put approximately 1 cup of water,  10 drops of doTERRA Eucalyptus Oil and 10 drops of doTERRA Lemon Oil in a spray bottle, shook it up and sprayed it on the corners of the lounge where the cats claw every day. The first day they came up and sniffed around, but then walked away. I haven't seen them near the lounge at all since then. This seemed too good to be true, but it's been 4 days and they still haven't been near the lounge. I'm going to spray it every

WHERE TO GET YOUR doTERRA RESOURCES

Image
So you have your oils, now you need to get some tools and resources together. In this blog, I will tell you where I purchase all of my sample bottles, reference books, sachets, stickers, which phone apps I use and other tools I have found to be useful. Obviously, you don't need everything that I talk about on this blog, but if you do want them, you will know where to get them from. The very first thing anyone who uses essential oils should purchase, in my opinion, is a reference book. If you are on my team I have more than likely sent you one in your Welcome Pack.  I recommend either The Essential Life Book or Modern Essentials. You don't need both, as they are both excellent books, but are very similar. I am a visual person and The Essential Life book is just so much prettier to me. The Modern Essentials book is more like a text book. The other book I recommend and use every single day is the Emotions & Essential Oils book. I love the emotions side of ess
