At the first sign of a cold, sore throat, flu (weak legs, aching body) get home as quickly as you are able and get into a hot bath with the following: 


Sea Salt Bath for Colds and Flu

2 cups Sea salt or Epsom salt
5 drops Ravensara essential oil
5 drops Rosemary essential oil
5 drops Tea Tree essential oil
5 drops Eucalyptus radiata essential oil
5 drops Lemon essential oil
Combine ingredients in a glass container. Fill bath with water as hot as you are able to handle.  Add Sea Salt blend, stir water, and stay in bath for as long as you are able (30 minutes).  When you get out, towel blot dry.  Put 2 drops of Ravensara and Eucalyptus on the bottoms of your feet and top with thick cotton or wool socks.  Go to bed immediately and pile on the blankets.  Drink plenty of Vitamin C (from any source), take garlic capsules (6 at a time, 4 times per day).  You will awaken well - when others around you are sick.  Enjoy!

Massage Oil for Colds

1 ounce Grapeseed oil (or your favorite carrier oil)
6 drops Rosemary essential oil
6 drops Ravensara essential oil
3 drops Ginger essential oil
5 drops Lemon essential oil
Mix ingredients in an amber dropper bottle or spray bottle.  Rub over chest, upper back, neck and shoulders. Apply morning and evening, or as needed.

Steam Inhalation (if you do not have a diffuser)

4 cups Water
4 drops Eucalyptus radiata essential oil
2 drop Rosemary essential oil
2 drops Lemon essential oil
Heat water. Remove from stove and add essential oils. Place a towel over your head and lean over steaming water. Breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth. Close your eyes to avoid irritation.
