For many people, seasonal allergies are a frustrating reality during spring. As temperatures warm and plants begin to bloom, pollen and other materials can aggravate our bodies, resulting in runny noses, scratchy throats and itchy eyes.
To support your well-being at this time of year, we recommend trying essential oils. These products stem (pun intended) from plants themselves, and they can promote wellness for various points in your life, from the immune system to stress relief.
Among our favorites during allergy season is lavender, truly the all-purpose essential oil. HealthyAndNaturalWorld.com recommends applying a single drop to your sinuses. You may also dilute it with a carrier oil and apply the resulting blend to rashes or other skin irritations three times daily, the website suggests.
Over at MyWiseMom.com, blogger Kerry touts the benefits of the LLP shot, a reference to lavender as well as lemon and peppermint. For children in particular, she recommends external uses only, such as applying a few drops to a child’s clothing or pillow to allow them to inhale associated aromas. Diffusers are another great way to distribute the benefits of these oils.
Another post recommends NingXia Red as a “powerful punch” against allergies. Susan of The Confident Mom blog describes how she used to treat allergies before adding: “Now we can easily handle allergies with pure and natural Young Living Essential Oils.”
Rest assured the team at Young Living is prepared to help you and yours rest a little easier this spring with essential oils that support wellness outdoors and indoors.
