When cold season begins, it usually comes in by storm and everyone in the house has to go through it. But the littles are the worst. They are miserable and usually cranky because of the discomfort and lack of sleep and their poor little coughs leave them struggling to breathe. Trying to keep them healthy while also healing the culprit of the cold can be challenge but I've found this blend to be just the ticket. My 2 year old son asks for the "pizza" on his feet before bed.
THE COLD COMBO
I mix these oils with a little carrier oil and apply to the bottom of my kids' feet before going to bed. You could leave them uncovered or put socks back on. I also like to rub a little breathe on their chest.
Oregano Oil (mixed with a carrier oil) which supports a healthy immune system, healthy digestion, and respiratory function.

Combining the powers of lemon essential oil, peppermint essential oil, and lavender essential oil for allergies is the best way to tackle most allergic reactions. Combined, they work as one of the most powerful antihistamines to bring down inflammation and other discomforts caused by your body’s allergic response.
