We’ve all heard the saying “April showers bring May flowers”. Some people look forward to the wildflower shows that nature brings us. Seeing fresh new flowers everywhere brings beauty and joy. And smelling the natural floral perfume is intoxicating.
However, for some of us, nature’s beauty brings lots of sniffles, raw noses, watery eyes and so forth. As we look around at all the beautiful flowers, we’re also reaching for a box (or 10 boxes) of tissues, a gas mask or perhaps an airtight bubble we can live in to keep all the evil pollen out. Ok, so this might be a slight exaggeration. But anybody who has suffered during the spring can understand!
This year was the first year I experienced this deadly beautiful season while using essential oils. And it happens to be the first year that I came out of the flower season feeling victorious! I won! What’s my secret(s)? Keep reading as I reveal them!
In February, I did a 30 day challenge and started drinking 1oz of Ningxia Red every day. If you have followed us on our Oil and Light Facebook group or read any of our posts on this website, you ought to know by now that I am in love with Ningxia. It has helped me in so many areas of my life. Ningxia Red is made with wolfberries, pomegranate, cherry, plum and blueberry juices and extracts. It is full of antioxidants, vitamins and essential oils. Because of all these healthy ingredients, it helps support many areas of your body including help building up your immune system and respiratory system.
There is also an essential oil trio that many people use. Peppermint, Lavender and Lemon. Diffusing these 3 together will help open your passageways, clear the air and even make your house smell amazing!!!
Young Living offers 3 different varieties of eucalyptus; Eucalyptus Radiata, Eucalyptus Globulus and Eucalyptues Blue. Any one of these will help support your respiratory system and promote easier breathing. You can diffuse it or add it to a favorite seasonal support roller.
And talking about rollers, Young Living has a 10ml pre-made roller that you can buy!
