Aromatherapy for Kids

Essential Oils for Colds and Flu
Some of the best oils to use for children when they are ill are RC (for respiratory involvement), Raven, Mountain Savory, Thieves and Oregano. They should be diluted with olive oil and can be applied on the chest, back, spine and feet.

Make sure your child also has a good probiotic to keep his or her digestive system strong. Young Living also has great vitamins for kids: Mighty Vites and MightyZyme. Children of all ages can also drink Ningxia Red, a fantastic boost for their health. Please remember to take care with your children and bring them to a doctor whenever necessary.

Keeping Kids Healthy at School
A key for healthy children during the school year is to have the children bring Thieves Waterless Hand Purifier to school. Have them use a drop every time after going to the bathroom and several times during the day for protection. This is an inexpensive and easy solution to protect them from the infections going around.

For adults, the waterless hand purifier fits into a small purse and can be used by putting a drop into your hands after leaving public facilities. At home or at your office, you could have the liquid Thieves hand soap on your bathroom sink and I have it also on my kitchen sink.

Aromatherapy for Babies
Using essential oils for babies is a joy! Baby girls usually like the essential oil Gentle Baby in their bathwater.  Baby boys often like the essential oil Valor. If there has been any kind of trauma during the birthing process, or any difficulties at all, you might want to try adding the essential oil SARAH to the bath water. Just a few drops in warm water is sufficient.

Essential oils can help with many conditions for babies and children. For example, babies who are pale or not growing sufficiently might be helped by mixing the essential oil SARAH with a carrier and massaging the baby’s spine, legs and feet. There are many oils to help your family achieve the highest possible level of health and wellness!

Aromatherapy for Healthy Ears
For fluid in the ears, try placing some Melrose oil on a cotton ball and place gently in your ears (not all the way in). Peppermint can also be used externally on the chest and throat all the way up behind the ears. Peppermint is useful as a decongestant. For pain in the ears, try Thieves along the jawbone, neck and outside the ears.

Antibacterial Oils
Bacteria known as MRSA have created quite a scare. MRSA means anti-methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus. Basically, it’s a kind of bacteria that is resistant to anti-biotics. Of the 107 Young Living essential oils that have been tested, 90% of the oils gave positive results, having anti-MRSA activity.

Eleven single oils have the highest anti-MRSA activity.  They are lemongrass, lemon myrtle, mountain savory, cinnamon, melissa, thyme, cumin, tsuga, oregano, citrus hystrix, and tea tree oil. Among essential oil blends involving multiple oils, the most effective oils are Longevity, Motivation, and R.C.

Oils for the Common Cold
There are many different viruses that can contribute to the symptoms that are commonly associated with colds. Several essential oils that can be used to help combat these symptoms. Blue cypress and fir can be used for aches and pains. Ecalyptus, ravensara and peppermint can help with nasal congestion and respiratory problems. These oils can be diffused or applied to forehead, temples, back of neck and chest. Or place 4 drops in 1/2 cup of hot water and place nose and mouth over opening and breathe.

For a sore throat, a drop of melaleuca alternifolia can be applied to the tip of the tongue, then swallow.  This works best when done immediately upon noticing a sore throat. Repeat frequently until the throat feels better. The oil can also be applied behind the ears and down under the jaw line.
