The Bean loves snow!

In her book, Essential Living, Aromatherapy Recipes for Heath and Home, author Andrea Butje has devoted an entire chapter to children and essential oils.

Though my own sons are grown, my 5-year-old grandson, The Bean, visits us every-other-weekend.   I use essential oils for my little man’s well-being in so many ways!  Kids respond to essential oils very quickly, since their little bodies are already quite clean and free of toxins.  Plus, it’s fun!  Bean has helped me make cleaning products and frequently chooses the oils he likes in his blends.  Now he is even telling his own parents when they need essential oils!

Here is a wonderful blend from Essential Living that I have been diffusing in the house all weekend for some chest congestion he is experiencing.  It also helps my husband and I stay healthy!

Antibacterial Diffuser Blend

To my room diffuser, I add:
2 drops Eucalyptus dives essential oil
2 drops Ravintsara essential oil
2 drops Balsam Fir essential oil
