As things get going with this blog, I will be excitedly sharing our personal experiences, but these first few days I want to be sure to get the information you need to get started. You deserve to be able to find oils for any of your experiences, and my inexperience should not be a hindrance. There may also be times something comes up, where you need to know which of your oils to use, but I am not immediately available. With that in mind, I am going to share my personal favorite places to find which oils or supplements will help with problems that come up in our lives.
The biggest resource I use is
Oil Testimonials. That link will take you to my sponsor page. You do need to sign up to search for information, but it does not require you to buy anything. Oil Testimonials is all about finding oils that will be most beneficial to your personal needs. I love that when I search, I am given testimonials from several people, and I often have a variety of oils I can try. I can read through them to find the options that best fit exactly what I'm experiencing, and many times there are suggestions I would have never thought to try. Please do keep in mind that anything beyond normal, minor issues should be discussed with your physician.
My second big go to resource is my
Quick Reference Guide for Essential Oils 2013
. This book has had ideas for pretty much every situation I have come across. I love that I can take it with me, and I don't have to worry about getting online and searching to find things. This is the book I took to the hospital for the birth of my last little, and it's the book I like to keep right in the bathroom with my oils. It's easy to search through when we would like to find which supplements will best support a system or which may help to sooth various day to day disruptions. In the front there is a spot that shows you where the vita-flex points are on your body. Before getting this book, I had no idea that using an oil on different parts of my feet could affect different parts of my body. When I look through, I find what part of my body I am looking to support, then flip to the front to figure out the best place to put the oil.
The last resource I find myself using frequently is
Gentle Babies: Essential Oils and Natural Remedies for Pregnancy, Childbirth, Infants and Young Children (5th Edition)
. Mine is actually the third edition, but because it has been updated, this version is going to be your best option. I got this book because I have five children, and this particular book caters to things that commonly bother children. The Quick Reference Guide above does have a section that addresses pregnancy, children, and infants, but I will grab my Gentle Babies book before the big book most times for the kids. When I look in this book, I know any suggestions are specifically geared to what may be best for my kids, right down to telling me exactly how much to dilute an oil for them. This is especially important when using a hot oil like Peppermint or Thieves. It also explains infant massage and how to use oils.
There you have it. I will always do my best to find the oils you need or assist with finding the most appropriate oils to help support your healthy lifestyle, but if I am not available right away these are the resources I use most. I will also let you know as I find more resources I fall in love with.
