Hay Fever Season

Has anyone noticed that hay fever season is lasting through the entire summer or is it just me?

Wow!  I’m experiencing allergy symptoms and my immune system is working overtime to keep up!

Essential oils are really great allies for allergy sufferers since many of our essential oils contain antihistamine like properties.

Of course a healthy immune system is first and foremost.  Lowered immunity is the reason we humans contact many health related maladies.  Colds, flu and allergic reactions are often a symptom of lowered immunity.

Enter the world of essential oils. Some examples of essential oils which have antihistamine properties include clove, chamomile, lemon, eucalyptus, geranium and of course lovely lavender, the Swiss army knife of essential oils!

I have two blends that I use regularly as prevention and are definitely a ‘go-to’ when I’m feeling run down.

These blends are Immunity and Lymph Mover and work very synergistically together.

Both contain several of the aforementioned antihistamine oils.

Immunity has Eucalyptus, Lemon and Clove among others.  Lymph Mover contains Geranium and Lemon and other oils.

Lymph is best massaged into the lymph areas which include behind the ears and neck area as well as under arm area and from ankles massaged upward to the groin area.

Immunity is great after a shower and massaged onto bottoms of feet and up the backs of your legs. It’s also great for inhalation.

Stay healthy with Touch of Earth essential oil blends.

Follow Your Nose part 1

Ever wondered why we humans have such a strong connection to smells?

        Well here’s the reason….smell is our most primitive sense. All the senses ancient humans were more acute than ours today.  The sense of smell was a crucial survival skill. Humans learned much about the medicinal use of plants from watching animals and as we evolved we managed to stay alive due to this powerful sense of smell. Our strong sense of smell is an evolutionary connection to health. This is still true today….if it smells bad, stay away or throw it away. Unfortunately today we are not as connected to the natural environment and plant based living. We have become out of balance with Mother Nature. But here’s the good news, essential oils can help fill that gap.

Essential oils are often referred to as the life force or soul of the plant.  It’s been found essential oils are the immune system of the plant, producing more scent when under stress to keep insects and other predators away.  (Michael Scholes, Labofflowers)  Myself and many others consider essential oils distilled from plants to be some of the most important medicines of the 21^st century’ and are perfect allies to help bring us back into balance.

Bugz Be Gone testimony

Hello Everyone,

If you haven’t tried Bugz Be Gone then you’re missing out! Bugz Be Gone is an all-natural bug repellent that works wonders on keeping bugs away from you and your loved ones. It’s great for any type of outdoor vacation trip you or your family might be planning such as camping trips or vacations, visits to the lake, hiking or even the beach. Anything having to do with the outdoors and bugs Bugz Be Gone can help. You don’t have to take my word for it, just read one of the many e-mails I’ve receive about Bugz Be Gone.

Dear Nancy,

Many, many thanks for sending us the BUGz Be Gone in time to take with us on our trip to Mexico!

It did a fabulous job of keeping the bugs away. We were with a group of folks that included a 9 month old baby, several teenagers, and several adults. We all used BUGz Be Gone, and the first thing everyone commented on was the pleasant fragrance, and later how well it worked to keep the bugs away.

My husband applied the lotion before going into the Yucatan jungle for a cenote dive. Unfortunately he didn't learn that the bugs would bite through his swimsuit until it was too late. That was the only place he hadn't applied BUGz Be Gone, and the only place where he was bitten--a clear indicator of BUGz Be Gone's effectiveness!

BUGz Be Gone truly made our trip more enjoyable. Thank you for your generosity and thoughtfulness!

Sincerely,

Beverly

Got Warts

Recently I’ve had much interest in how to deal with warts. Here are some wart facts:

*Warts are certainly not uncommon; in fact warts are called “common warts” to             distinguish them from genital warts which are sexually transmitted.

*Warts are caused by a virus called the human papilloma virus or HPV. Most common   warts are found on the hands but can be anywhere on the body.

*Most warts will eventually disappear on their own but this could take years.

*Warts can be painful, embarrassing and definitely contagious.

Common medical treatment may include burning, freezing, cutting and peeling off the skin OUCH!  These treatments may address the symptom but not the cause of the problem.  Often these warts grow back.

Since warts are caused by a virus, essential oils with anti-viral properties may dissolve the wart and in my experience often do. The added benefit of using these oils is stimulation of the immune to address the root cause. Who doesn't need that these days?

Enter Touch of Earth Immunity blend which contains essential oils known for their anti-viral properties.  Oils of ravensara, tea tree, eucalyptus, lemon, rosemary and thyme all have Historical Folkloric Application (HFA) as well as mention in research publications for their antiviral properties.

Immunity can be purchased at www.touchofearth.com and is on special right now.
