roll away your allergies

Hello everyone!
I'm really excited because lately I've been using my oils everyday a couple times a day, plus every night in my daughter's room while she sleeps. So, I was on Pinterest today, and I found a post that had to do with allergies and Young Living essential oils. That was the one thing that my husband asked me about before I bought my kit, was if they would help with his allergies. He's a lawn guy, and he always has such bad allergies because of it. My favorite oils to diffuse are Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint. Well, I have been out of Lavender for awhile now, but I just reordered it. Sooooo excited! Lavender really is my favorite. But I've been trying not to use Peppermint because I'm breast feeding my baby, and Peppermint has been known to dry up a woman's milk supply. So, back to Pinterest, I can't believe I didn't think about doing it myself. I found a recipe to make a roll-on bottle for allergies. My husband always wants me to put in oils that help with his allergies, so I'm so excited about making him a roll-on. He will be able to roll in onto himself anytime he wants, and it won't impact my milk supply. Yay!

So, here is what I will be making!!



- Lavender is a natural antihistamine and anti-inflammatory
- Lemon is an anti-inflammatory
- Peppermint is an analgesic and anti-inflammatory and relieves nasal congestion
- Copaiba is also an anti-inflammatory, but it also will enhance the other oils and make them more powerful

Recipe:
- 25 drops of Lavender Essential Oil
- 25 drops of Lemon Essential Oil
- 25 drops of Peppermint Essential Oil
- 25 drops of Copaiba Essential Oil
- Carrier Oil (i.e. Coconut Oil)

Add the essential oils to a 10-ml glass roll-on bottle and then fill the rest of the way with your choice of carrier oil, and then shake gently. You will want to use an amber or frosted blue bottle to help shield your oil from direct sunlight. 


If you don't want to make the roll-on, you can use these oils other ways to help with your allergies.

- diffuse 3 drops of each: Lavender, Lemon, and Peppermint essential oils
- apply 1 drop of each: Lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, and Copaiba essential oils, mixed with a carrier oil to the back of the neck, behind the ears, and/or on the bottoms of the feet, as often as needed
- dip a cotton swab into a mixture of one drop of Lavender essential oil and one drop of a carrier oil, swab just inside the nose
- rub R.C., Breathe Again, or Eucalyptus essential oil on either side of your nose when your symptoms are really bad, but stay far away from your eyes as possible
- you can also make your own capsules to ingest the oils

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask! I love talking about oils even if you don't want to order. :)
