My perspective, as a mother and as a midwife: Why incorporate oils into the home?

Those of you who already know me know that I am an independent midwife and a mother of two girls.. I have been using and sharing essential oils in my daily life for over ten years.. For me, having these tools on my shelves at home is a huge advantage in terms of prevention, emotional support, and quick action before resorting to overmedication..

Furthermore, by making our own homemade cosmetics and cleaners with pure, unadulterated oils, we drastically reduce the bioaccumulation of synthetic substances in our body. Children, not being as exposed to these toxins over the years, respond very quickly and naturally to botanical stimuli..

The ABCs of the Kit's oils in summertime

During the workshop we reviewed how the topical route (accompanied by a good massage with V-6 vegetable oil) and the aromatic route through the diffuser are perfect to benefit both the physical and emotional aspects of the whole family.

The following summarizes the main support properties for the summer season, grouping the oils according to their complementary benefits.:

Lavender and Copaiba (Skin Support and Comfort): Lavender is the ultimate all-purpose resource for skin care, proving very useful after a blow or daily exposure to environmental factors, as well as promoting general relaxation during pregnancy. Copaiba, for its part, is an extremely gentle oil that stands out for its unique property of enhancing and optimizing the benefits of any other oil it is combined with on the skin, while also offering excellent respiratory and digestive support..
Peppermint and Lemon (Freshen and Mental Focus): Peppermint provides a great feeling of freshness, clears the mind, and is ideal for promoting concentration and mitigating occasional nausea during pregnancy.. Lemon complements this action by providing an atmosphere of positive energy and optimism, also helping to release toxins from the body when the specific Vitality/Plus range is used internally..
DiGize and Orange (Digestive System Wellness): DiGize is a synergy specifically formulated to offer optimal support to the digestive system and intestinal transit, ideal for balancing the body after heavy meals or during holiday travel.. Since its aroma is very intense, an excellent option is to combine it with Orange oil, which not only provides digestive support properties and a sweet aroma that invites calm in the late afternoon, but also softens the mixture, making it much more pleasant..
Blue Relief and Stress Away (Physical Relief and Mental Rest): Blue Relief is a synergy geared towards the musculoskeletal system, making it the perfect ally to apply through a comforting massage to muscle areas or joints after physical exertion or intense outdoor activities.. To complement physical relaxation, Stress Away combines copal, lime, cedar, lavender, and a subtle touch of vanilla, making it the ideal resource to always have on hand and apply during moments of high daily demand to promote an atmosphere of relaxation and mental rest..
Purification, Thieves and RC (Environmental Protection and Support): Purification is excellent for neutralizing odors and refreshing the outdoor environment, acting as a very effective shield in summer.. It perfectly complements Thieves, which offers basic support to boost overall well-being and the immune system., And with RC, an ideal synergy to oxygenate and refresh environments when we are overexposed to air conditioning in rooms.

Safety note on citrus oils: As these are photosensitive oils, during the summer, Lemon and Orange should be used primarily in ambient diffusion or internally, avoiding sun exposure if applied to the skin..

Summer Recipe Book: From Theory to Practice

In the video above I explain the step-by-step process in detail, but here are the main ingredients of the star synergies we prepared together.:

Relaxing / Refreshing Lemonade: Mix one tablespoon of raw honey with one drop of Lemon Plus and one drop of Lavender or Mint. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice, fresh water, and ice..
NingXia Red Healthy Poles: Blend a banana with natural orange juice and red berries. Add a sachet of NingXia Red antioxidant drink and a couple of drops of orange or lemon juice.. Freeze in molds and you'll have an ideal and nutritious popsicle for the little ones.
Family Mosquito Repellent Spray: In a spray bottle mix 20 drops of Purification, 10 of Thieves, 10 of Lavender and 10 of Peppermint (omit the peppermint if there are very young babies). Add a splash of alcohol and fill with water.
Post-Sting and Inconvenience Rescue Roll: In a 10ml bottle, put 4 drops of Purification, 4 of Lavender, and 4 of Copaiba, and fill with vegetable oil.. It's great for insect bites, ear discomfort after swimming, or a sore throat..
Light legs at nightfall: Mix aloe vera gel with 8 drops of Lemon, 6 of Mint and 5 of Copaiba to give a comforting upward massage.
