Nice still shot of me, right?   But seriously, everyone and their brother has been asking me, “How do I boost immunity, and PREVENT gettting sick?”  

I feel super fortunate: my son has had a handful of colds, none of which have lasted more than a 3 days. People always ask me what I do, and I COMPLETELY believe in lifestyle choices, of course, and still, I have experienced that the ESSENTIAL OILS have not only eased symptoms, but their antiseptic and their ability to break down mucous and rid the body of the cause.  

Here are my TOP 6 PREVENTATIVE secrets.

1. Days getting shorter, more darktime= body thinks, “rest more” I don’t fight that anymore. I go to bed when I’m tired. If I’m not, I diffuse Peace & Calming (citruses are highly antibacterial, patchouli is super relaxing, helps me and my son get to bed on time.)
2. I think “Sugar=immunity suppressant” so I ditched sugar, and if there is ANY PHLEGM, or runny nose, STOP DAIRY until it stops. The Chinese say don’t add phlegmy substances whilst your body seeks to rid it.
3. Soups, Stews, & Teas. It takes energy away from immunity to warm the body, so like my dad said, “Don’t just stand there and watch your body push it’s guts out, help it!” by taking warm fluids, and NOT taking cold foods like smoothies or salads when it’s cold and wet outside, seek to balance your internal by observing the external.
4. Thieves Oil regularly during cold and flu season. Apply one drop (split between both feet) on his soles before bed).
5. Spray Thieves over my son and myself before he goes to school, and before I start the day at the hospital.
6. Diffuse RC ( a blend of Eucalyptuses to kill bacteria/viruses and decongest, and break down mucous) in the evening. I sometimes interchange with the citrus fresh, or other blends, all antibacterial, and every evening is like a SPA at my house!

DIFFUSING KILLS BACTERIA IN THE AIR:
The cool diffuser I love is $98, but comes FREE with a starter kit if you want to sign up for a wholesale account, you never have to buy more than $50/year, which, BLAMO, you will with one order, I think it’s nice they offer 24% off to anyone this way, most companies do not offer anyone a distributorship without a monthly commitment.

The Starter Kit includes:

1. THIEVES (blend to prevent cold and flu)  
2. PEPPERMINT (anti-inflammatory, pain reliever, digestive, antispasmodic, stomach pain reliever).
3. LEMON (antiseptic, digestive)
4. FRANKINCENSE (depression, cancer, father of all healing oils),
5. PANAWAY(Injury, pain)
6. PEACE & CALMING (seasonal depression/anxiety/pain)
7. JOY (seasonal depression)
8. PURIFICATION (Air purifier, cut antiseptic, instant bugspray). 
9. VALOR (contains frankensence and blue tansy, like a muscle relaxer and very grounding, they call ‘chiropractor in a bottle.’
