Colds!
Do you get colds? What about your kids?! Of course they do. A cold can be anything from runny or stuffy nose, congestion, cough, sore throat or sneezing. So of course, we all get colds!
There are a few items we don’t ever run out of in our house when it is cold season. Breathe stick and Breathe drops! We use these religiously in our home in the winter.
The other thing that I make up is the “Cold Recipe”
I put it in a smaller roller bottle that I get at Aroma Tools and add the following:
5 drops of Lemon
5 drops of Thyme
1tbsp of fractionated coconut oil.
You simply apply a small amount to the throat, forehead,chest and back of the neck 2-3 times a day.
The roller bottle shown is 1/6 ounce.
These oils are safe to use on kids topically.
This came in handy so many times for me this winter!
The thing I love about oils is the fact of your kids not refusing them! Cough syrup they hate…they don’t want to take it. This is a super simple way to apply it, even when they are just laying there. Fighting them to take their medicine is over with oils!
