Using Essential Oils for Immunity
Do you have the oils you need for immunity?
These are a few of my must-have oils for fall and winter. Especially in 2020! They can help you eradicate threats, support a healthy immune response, and encourage our bodies’ natural defenses.
Frankincense - Frank is The King of all oils! Think of Frankincense as your Swiss Army knife. I take two drops under my tongue morning and night for healthy cellular function, immunity and stress relief. Because this essential oil is so versatile, whenever I'm in doubt about something, I probably put frankincense on it!
Lemon - Lemon is the gentle detoxifier. I add a few drops of doTERRA Lemon essential oil to every glass of water. It gently cleanses the body and improves immunity.
Oregano - Oregano is the fighter! This oil eradicates the threats. It's strong and intense-smelling but you can dilute it and apply to your spine, the bottom of your feet, and add a few drops in an empty capsule to kill those little buggers. Dilution is when you mis an essential oil with fractionated coconut oil (or some other carrier oil like almond oil or jojoba) so that it’s less intense and can be spread evenly across the skin. With Oregano, a good rule of thumb is 1 drop of doTERRA Oregano to a teaspoon of coconut oil.
OnGuard Blend - OnGuard was designed by doTERRA to be a protective blend. I put it on the bottom of my feet every morning and every night. I also put some in my essential oil diffuser throughout the day...especially if I am concerned about things floating in the air or I have family coming over and want to keep the air clean and safe. OnGuard has a potent mixture of Clove, Wild Orange, Cinnamon, Eucalyptus and Rosemary.
Tea Tree - Tea Tree is the gentle giant. It soothes the skin and it is gentle enough to use on all ages. But don’t let its gentle nature fool you- Tea Tree is another strong fighter and protector. If I feel a tickle in my throat I will dab a tiny bit onto my tongue every 20 minutes for two hours. I also like to apply it to my belly to keep my digestion healthy and along my spine for immunity.
