Back to School
As parents who want the best for our children, we spend a lot of thought, money and time in August on back packs, pencil cases, new clothes, lunch bags and other supplies in an effort to feel prepared.
But did you ever stop and think about how you can start to prepare your child’s body and mind for school?
Our kids go from relaxed days at camp or at home to more structured routines, new schedules, new friends, and new teachers all at once. This can be very daunting for many, especially the younger ones! Change is not easy for adults...imagine how it might feel as a kid! Gosh…and with the last couple of years…there is an additional layer of anxiety topped right onto ‘the usual’ stressors.
I recommend the following essential oils to assist your child in settling into their new school environment with ease.
In 2022, with some new products out, I’ve curated another option for you.
I like this kit because:
it provides smaller bottles (5 ml with 85 drops in each) of some favourite oils to keep costs down and allow you to try first and see what you like and use
includes tea tree (melaleuca) that you can use for lice prevention [study]. Simply add to your kid’s favourite clean shampoo or DoTerra’s shampoo.
includes lavender to use for anything calming (skin, nervous system) - this is in the serenity blend but sometimes I just love the pure oil so that I can blend it based on needs.
includes easy air (breathe) which is the oil that made me love doTerra. This blend includes peppermint and eucalyptus, which studies have shown increase oxygen saturation. In fact, one of the molecules in peppermint is oxygen. Eucalyptus oil contains eucalyptol and alpha-terpineol, which make it an ideal oil to promote open airways and feelings of clear breathing. Eucalyptus isn’t just helpful for your breathing, the oil has purifying properties and helps lessen tension. I think we can all agree that at times like these those are definitely essential qualities. [study] [study]
it includes some ‘on guard’ favourites that make life easier and cleaner (On Guard Wipes and On Guard Sanitizing Mist)
you’ll have the fractionated coconut oil ready for making your own blends or diluting your single oils. Remember…do Terra’s oils and pure and potent!
it includes peppermint! You may or may not know how supportive peppermint is to digestion…and how connected digestion is to stress. Keep your tummy tame and energy up with this incredible oil. I love to press a drop to the roof of my mouth for an instant brain lift.
