Three Ways To Use Essential Oils

 

*Read label on bottle to determine the uses for specific oils and if they need to be diluted with a carrier oil or can be used “neat” or undiluted. 

 

Topically

• Massage a  few drops of essential oil and a carrier oil of choice {coconut, grape seed, V6 vegetable} into preferred parts of the body.

• Roll onto desired area with rollerball

• Allow 1 drop of oil to fall into your non-dominant hand, take your “peace fingers” of your dominant hand and rub the oil in 3 clockwise circles to activate the oil to your energy. Rub your palms together and cup hands over nose and mouth (without touching oil to your eyes!) and inhale the oil, taking it in to all of your cells. Then, using your intuition, apply the oil on your body wherever you feel like you need it (back of the neck, abdomen, bottom of the feet…)

• Applying oils to the bottom of the feet is a wonderful way to use the oils, especially for kids, because the skin is less sensitive, the biggest pores are located here allowing the oils get into the system faster, AND a complete network of Vita-Flex points (like a map of your body on your feet!) stimulate all the internal body systems.

 

Aromatically

• Inhale directly (straight from the bottle)

• Diffuse them {add water to line, then a few drops of your favorite oil}

• Add a few drops of oil into a bowl of hot water, cover your head and bowl with a towel and

       breathe deeply

 

Internally

• Our Vitality Line can be added to a glass of water, rice milk or beverage of your choice!

• Put several drops of essential oil into an empty vegetable capsule and swallow with water

     {tip: put rice into small bowl and as you fill capsules, stand them up b/c the capsules

     can leak and get sticky}

• Citrus oils will dissolve veggie caps.   Either add carrier oil or take immediately
