May Oil Spotlight! Clove and Cinnamon!

O.K. So you want to kill some viruses? Don't be afraid of the flu, when you have Clove and Cinnamon essential oils the flu will Tremble in it's shoes.
Clove and Cinnamon kill 90% of all bacteria strains, with Clove EO killing more than 60 different bacteria strains and several virusus (both of these oils are in the On Guard blend from doTerra).
Diffusing 12.5 mg (one forth a drop) of On Guard, Cinnamon, or Clove in a full liter is powerful enough to stop germ growth. You do not need to diffuse continuously, just 15 minutes 2-3 times a day will keep those lousy germs away. On Guard is a powerful anti-pathogenic blend with both Clove and Cinnamon added which can elliminate pathogens and germs. However, nothing can compensate for the Washing of Hands - That is the most effective in killing germs. Add a few drops each of Cinnamon and Clove to your foaming hand wash and you are set for killing germs on your little ones hands.
I like using the ON GUARD blend on my childrens feet because it has the right mixture of Clove an Cinnamon already for me to use in a hurry, plus it is an active, natural, and the most powerful preventative and curative approach when a nasty virus is on the loose. I use it all the time. Diffusing it in my home, on my childrens feet/NEAT, and as a gargle. It wipes out sore throats, bugs, and viruses. For little babies I would dilute it first. I have used both Cinnamon, and Clove individually before for, but I would recommend the blend. Cinnamon is extremely strong and needs to be diluted. I take Clove internally by capsule all the time for when I need pain relief.
Both Clove and Cinnamon are anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-infectious, anti-viral, antiseptic, anti-parasitic, disinfectant, and immune stimulant! (I didn't list everything either). These 2 oils are really best used in a blend. Have fun killing bugs!

Education is Key!

Over the past year we have found that many people have heard about essential oils and have even used some of them. Some have been disappointed with the way the essential oils were explained to work, but they themselves did not have the same results. Some have used the oils only for the aromatic properties. And some have just put their oils on the back of their shelves and left them there, not really knowing what or how to use them. For all of these reasons, and others, we have continued to teach our monthly classes on the many uses of these wonderful oils. We have found that by EDUCATING the people on how to properly use these oils, they grow and learn and actually begin to teach others about the oils. The circle of knowledge only gets bigger and bigger. This is a dream come true for me and Katie. We can only see good coming from using essential oils, and teaching others how to become more self reliant with their home health and medicinal needs. Can you imagine paying yourself...

Geranium Oil Spotlight

Geranium (April 2009) Have you ever tried Geranium Oil? Used for years as a gentle and calming single oil known for improving a variety of skin conditions (including dry eczema, burns, shingles, ringworm, lice, acne, cuts and wounds and even herpes or cold sores). It helps relieve pain, soothes anxiety and stress, diminishes swelling and inflammation, is sedative and useful for nervousness, and renowned for healing burns, wounds, and skin ulcers. It is used for sore breasts of lactating mothers. It is an excellent mosquito repellant. Some have used Geranium to stop excessive bleeding and nosebleeds, and during labor and delivery to prevent hemorrhage. An oil I wouldn't be without if you have a family with any skin conditions. For external use, mix 12 drops of geranium oil to about 1 cup of distilled water. Since oil is not readily dissolved in water, mix well before using. Wash the skin with this blend as needed. Another way to use geranium oil is to mix 60 drops in one cup of oliv...

I just read a post from 10 years ago!

Hello there! Do you remember these posts from so many years ago? It is very interesting to see how things change in one decade! Only ten  years ago, essential oils were a 'hippie dippie' strange voodoo language only cave dwelling witches and hags knew the magical powers of. Ha ha...well, maybe hags is too strong of a label.  However that is not the case any longer, is it?! Essential oil knowledge is sweeping the globe in leaps and bounds. The scientific evidence of positive feedback is piling up in mountainous stacks of positive proof that essential oils are the new rage in supporting a healthy lifestyle. How are you doing with this?  Did you fully jump onto the essential oil bandwagon or did you tip toe into the oils world? Where are you at right now? How are things going for you in life?  Honestly there is so much knowledge out there about using oils I feel we can look and search pretty much anything we are interested in and find successful options to su...
