What's Itching You?
Spring is here...but so are seasonal threats that can affect your respiratory and sinus functions. Over-the-counter drugs treat symptoms, whereas doTerra essential oils offer a natural way to address root causes and conditions.
When your body is exposed to allergens, it gets triggered. Your body's immune system works hard to fight them.This can create inflammation, leading to symptoms such as coughing, sneezing, and itching.
Stress Creates Inflammation
It's important to recognize how your body reacts to stimuli. In this way, you can address them and calm your body down naturally without triggering a flight or fight response that get activated by stress.
How to Feel Safe and Calm Right Now
One of the best ways to calm the body and address inflammation is through breathing. Taking deep breaths lets your body know it is safe.
Grab an essential oil such as Lemon, Lavender, Peppermint, and Breathe. These can help uplift, calm, and support healthy respiratory function. Rub a drop or two of oil on your chest, but first apply a carrier oil such as fractionated coconut oil or olive oil to lessen any skin sensitivity. Next, inhale for 4 counts, hold your breath for 4 counts, then let it out for 6 counts. Repeat the process.
Another way to feel calm is by tapping the acupressure points running along your body's meridians. We both like www.thetappingsolution.com which guides you through tapping meditations.
Oils That Provide Seasonal Support
The Trio That Works Wonders Aromatically: Diffuse 2 drops of Lemon, Peppermint, and Lavender. Topically: Rub 1-2 drops of each of these oil on the bottoms of your feet. Internally: Tri-Ease combines all three oils in easy-to-swallow softgels.
