Check out this Simple Tip to Freshen Your Bathroom Naturally with Essential Oils

The idea of making your bathroom smell like a “Spring Breeze” or “Berry Blossom” may be delightful to you, but often those seemingly innocent names for commercial air fresheners are deceptive given the harmful effects that can occur from being exposed to them.

Instead of freshening your bathroom with artificial fragrances that contain toxic chemicals, freshen your bathroom naturally with essential oils using this easy tip.

Materials: All you need is a roll of toilet paper and your favorite dōTERRA essential oil or blend.

Directions: When you take out a new roll of toilet paper, add 2-3 drops of essential oil to the cardboard middle. It will then automatically freshen your bathroom every time it is used.

All Natural Eczema Support

DoTERRA Essential Oil Support for:

Eczema

Eczema is due to a hypersensitivity reaction (similar to an allergy) in the skin, which leads to long-term inflammation of the skin.

Eczema is most common in infants. Many people outgrow it by early adulthood. The condition tends to run in families.

People with eczema often have asthma or hay fever, too. There is often a family history of allergic conditions such as asthma, hay fever, or eczema.

The most common causes of eczema include malnutrition, especially to the skin (deficiency of essential substances or nutrient imbalances) and internal pollution (interfering substances such as pollutants, heavy metals, drugs, metabolic waste products, toxins produced by yeast, and toxins made in our body as a result of allergic reactions).

The following can make eczema worse:

  • Allergies to pollen, mold, dust mites, or animals

  • Colds or the flu
  • Contact with rough materials
  • Dry skin
  • Exposure to environmental irritants
  • Exposure to water
  • Feeling too hot or too cold
  • Fragrances or dyes added to skin lotions or soaps
  • Stress

    =============

Those with Eczema have noticed:

Typical skin changes may include:

  • Blisters with oozing and crusting

  • Ear discharge or bleeding
  • Raw areas of the skin from scratching
  • Skin coloring changes — more or less coloring than the normal skin tone
  • Skin redness or inflammation around the blisters

  • Thickened or leather-like areas, called lichenification, which can occur after long-term irritation and scratching

Itching, which is sometimes intense, almost always occurs. Itching may start even before the rash appears.

——————————————————–

Your skin, the protection between you and the outer world, is your body’s largest organ.  It is there to protect you from infectious agents, environmental extremes, bumps, scratches, or invasive objects.  It has a system of nerves to warn against impending dangers, a system of sweat glands for cooling, a capillary system that can bring nutritional helps to the blood stream, and a system to exude poisons from the body.  A marvelous gland and so important for our health and well-being.

-

The skin is made up of three layers:Skin Layers

The epidermis – This is the outer layer of the skin.  It the primary protective coating of the body and is primarily non-living cells (no blood is delivered to them) that are fed by the lower dermis layer.  The epidermis is continually being rejuvenated from the dermis with the outer layer being completely replaced every 3 to 5 weeks.

-

The dermis – This layer, immediately below the epidermis, has all of the working elements of the skin.  It has the outermost capillaries of the blood system, it is the location of the sweat glands, it includes lymph nodes housing immune system cells, it has nerve endings for our sense of touch, and the hair follicles.  Around the hair follicles are the sebaceous glands that produce sebum.  The proper amount of sebum, an oily secretion, lubricates and waterproofs our skin.  Too much sebum, common to adolescents, leads to acne.  Too little sebum, common to aging adults, leads to dry skin that promotes wrinkles.

*Interestingly enough this same sebum is also a very important element in the use of essential oils.  This fatty substance is nearly ideal for absorbing essential oils, which then allows them, if applied topically (directly on the skin) to quickly enter the bloodstream.  A demonstration by Dr. David Hill shows the effects of oils in the blood stream within a matter of tens of seconds.

-

The subcutaneous (hypodermal) layer – This is the innermost layer of the skin.  It is the insulation for the body and is composed mostly of fat cell (adipocytes).  Besides insulation these fat cells provide texture for a pleasing appearance of the skin.  As these fat cells are lost, often in aging, wrinkles appear and sagging occurs.

-

Overview:

Dermatitis is inflammation of the skin and includes eczema (redness, itching and dryness, swelling, crusting, flaking, blistering, cracking, oozing, or bleeding). Psoriasis is a disease that affects the skin and joints. Red scaly patches appear on the skin which are areas of inflammation due to excessive skin production. This disorder is chronic and not contagious.

Dermatitis, eczema and the skin symptoms of psoriasis are treated with similar oils. Lavender and frankincense are most helpful and can be augmented with geranium and melaleuca.


doTERRA Essential Oil Users Have Found The Following To Assist In  Eczema Support:

Drink 2-4 drops of Lemon Oil in 12oz of water 1-2 times, daily. 

-(Helps clear out toxins in the body)

Make an ointment:

·    1 teaspoon carrier such as Fractionated Coconut Oil

·     20 drops lavender oil (relieves itching)

·    20 drops geranium oil (soothes and revitalizes)

·    20 drops melaleuca oil  (if you suspect bacterial infection)

Use the ointment for direct topical application to the affected area.

=

For larger area use a bath adding the 6 to 12 drops of the lavender and the other oils as needed.

Finally, understand that eczema’s root cause is many times an internal infection and the skin irritation is only a manifestation of an internal candida problem.  Therefore, strongly consider using a cleanse like the GX Assist followed by PB Assist to rebuild your probiotics.  Couple this with the Life Long Vitality supplements to strengthen the immune system.  In some reported cases of prolonged eczema the GX Assist had to be repeated multiple times.

lavender, jasmine, geranium, frankincense

The intensive moisture your skin has been waiting for, dōTERRA’s Hydrating Cream is packed with emollient-rich ingredients and effective anti-aging combatants for smooth and luxuriously hydrated skin.

dōTERRA’s Hydrating Cream assists your skin’s ability to overcome the effects of aging by delivering quality hydrating agents to the dermis. It helps restore the skin’s natural moisture-binding and retaining capacity for proper water levels of skin cells while providing a highly effective and longlasting hydrating effect. Over time and with daily use, this creamy formula helps replenish skins own vital properties, so it is softer, smoother and more naturally beautiful.

Geranium Essential Oil
Pelargonium graveolens

Geranium offers outstanding benefits for soothing skin and is a common ingredient in many skin care products. Also useful for joint support and tempering minor aches and pains, geranium’s calming effects make it a popular choice for many essential oil users.

Geranium is an aromatic, perennial, hairy plant with serrated leaves and flowers varying from light pink through to deep rose, magenta or red. Geranium essential oil is obtained by steam distillation from the flowers, leaves, and stalks.

 It is sometimes described as resembling Rose oil, though a sensitive nose would never confuse the two. It mixes well with Bergamot, Basil, Rosemary, Rose, Wild Orange, Sandalwood, Lemon, Patchouli and Lavender.

Geranium is composed of several potent constituents offering outstanding benefits and a history of traditional uses. It has been used to soothe inflammation and irritated skin. It is a common ingredient in many skin care products due to its healing nature. Geranium is a superb choice for ache, bruises and even burns. Due to its analgesic characteristics it is often used as a topical agent for individuals suffering with arthritis or rheumatism. Geranium stimulates the immune system, aids in poor circulation, is anti-mucolytic, uplifting to the mood and its calming effect on the nervous system is pronounced.

Properties: Anticonvulsant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antidepressant, astringent, antiseptic, insect repellent, diuretic, sedative, refreshing, relaxing and tonic.

-

Historical Uses: Geranium essential oil has been used historically for hemorrhoids, dysentery, heavy menstrual flow, inflammation, and possibly even cancer. It has also been historically recorded to help with tumors, bone fractures and wounds.

  • Internally – FDA has categorized geranium as GRAS for human consumption. Take internally with gel caps or with honey or a type of beverage.
Geranium has been reported to reduce the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and candidiasis (single-celled fungus). Improves immune system and is helpful as a stimulant for both lymphatic and circulatory systems.
-
Geranium is a great balancer, due to it being an adrenal cortex stimulant, and helps regulate moods. Great for women having trouble getting pregnant and for symptoms of menopause because of its ability to support hormone balance. It is one of the most useful essential oils to help eliminate cellulite. Geranium is often included in lymphatic drainage massage blends.
-
Menopause occurs for most women in their late forties and early fifties. Some women are relatively symptom-free, but many suffer from excessively heavy periods, hot flashes, depression and insomnia. Geranium is a hormonal balancer, while Rose tones and cleanses the uterus, and Cypress helps to relieve excessive menstrual flow. These oils can be used in massage, as well as in baths and as hot compresses over the abdomen
-
Geranium is effective in working with skin issues: Relieves inflammation, eczema, acne, burns, infected wounds, ringworm, lice, shingles and herpes blisters. Excellent for regeneration of skin cells and great for retarding the development of scar tissue so after burns or deep cuts use Geranium with Lavender to promote healing without scaring; great for our varicose vein blends and relief of broken capillaries.

Patchouli : doTerra Essential Oil

Patchouli

Used for centuries in perfumes and fragrances, Patchouli is one of the more aromatic essential oils. Patchouli oil has an easily recognizable rich musky-sweet fragrance and is used widely in the perfume industry.

Patchouli is a species from the genus Pogostemon a bushy herb of the mint family, with erect stems, reaching two or three feet in height and bearing small pale-pink or white flowers. The plant is native to the tropical regions of Asia but is now extensively cultivated in China, India, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mauritius, Philippines, West Africa and Vietnam.

During the 18th and 19th century silk traders from China traveling to the Middle East packed their silk cloth with dried patchouli leaves to prevent moths from laying their eggs on the cloth. Many historians speculate that this association with opulent eastern goods is why patchouli was considered by Europeans of that era to be a luxurious scent. It is said that patchouli was used in the linen chests of Queen Victoria in this way. Studies today suggest that patchouli essential oil may serve as an all-purpose insect repellent.

Patchouli essential oil is known to have a grounding, balancing effect on the emotions while providing excellent mood support. Patchouli is also widely used for wounds and tissue repair, as well as in skin care preparations for these same properties.

Product Tips:

  • To make your own wrinkle cream, add 10 drops of Patchouli, Myrrh, and Geranium to an unscented body lotion or massage oil.
  • For oily skin and hair add a few drops of Patchouli essential oil to your shampoo or facial cream.
  • Diffuse for a calming, soothing effect.
  • Add a few drops to your pets shampoo for a deodorizing effect.
  • As an anti-fungal, patchouli oil has been used to treat athlete’s foot. *Before going to bed put the following mixture on your feet for 7-10 days: Mix 2-3 drops of Patchouli, 3 drops Melaleuca, 3 drops Lavender. For advanced athlete’s foot, substitute Oregano for Melaleuca and add a tablespoon of coconut or olive oil*
