I hear a lot of chatter about cholesterol challenges. Eat this, don't eat that and so on. Did you know essential oils can help your body with this problem also?

Combine and ingest in a capsule (two times per day):
2 drop Frankincense
2 drop Lemongrass

If you do not have veggie caps, you can order them wholesale for $4 or purchase them at The Country Cupboard at the retail price.

Lemongrass also helps with:
*Skin & Hair Health
*Natural Bug Repellent
*Muscle Relaxer
*Reducing Inflammation
*Stress Reducer
*Supporting Immune System
*Detoxifier
*Natural Deodorizer

Recently I was babysitting a child who was dealing with some heavy emotional challenges. I handed him "Peace" to rub on, then I remember it's better to diffuse when dealing with emotions (or wanting to affect the limbic system).

Here's a little reminder of how to know when to use oils Aromatically, Topically or Internally.

Aromatic
Moods
Purify the Air
Open Airways
Immune System Support

Topical
Specific Location (sore muscle, ouchie)
Bottom of Feet (to affect whole body)

Internal
Cleansing
Digestive Support

This blend of Balance Grounding Blend, Bergamot and Basil is the perfect combination for stress anytime.  I love this blend because it not only calms my mood, but it supports my body so it doesn't have to work so hard throughout short or long periods of stress. And since stress causes inflammation and inflammation causes disease, not only does this support you in the moment, but  it's essential for long term good health. Ladies - we have to manage our stress!

Here's a great way!
Diffuse 1 drop each or make a 10 mL roller bottle:
12 Basil
12 Bergamot
12 Balance Grounding Blend
Fill to the top with carrier oil.
To use: One or two swipes on the bottom of feet or behind the ears up to every 15 minutes as needed.

It also comes in a 10ml roller bottle that is pocket friendly and easy to have with you on the go. It's available at The Country Cupboard for $12.99. Shipping is available for $5.
