We are all going through some tough times now with being quarantined at home. The world is extremely different from what it was a few weeks ago and it is crucial for all of us to stay healthy and to #stayhome until this virus diminishes.
Staying healthy in our home without having access to some of major cleaning supplies like Clorox and Lysol wipes, the next best thing to do is to keep our bodies nourished and healthy. Eating a healthy diet and getting daily exercise is so important. Additionally, if you have vitamin supplements or some nice hot teas to drink- those will also keep your body healthy.
But let’s talk essential oils! Essential oils have always been such a huge part of my life. I love diffusing them, making homemade cleaning products with them and lately I’ve been really into homemade roller balls for different purposes. With the virus scare happening all around us, I whipped up a immunity rollerball that everyone in the household has been using daily.
What You’ll Need:
- Lemon Essential Oil– cleans and sanitizes
- Frankincense Essential Oil– Supports respiratory health, antimicrobial
- Clove Essential Oil– antiseptic and antimicrobial
- Tea Tree Oil– antiseptic, supports viral infections
- Eucalyptus Essential Oil– supports healthy immune and respiratory system, antimicrobial
Along with essential oils, you’ll need a carrier oil to dilute your oils. My favorite to use is fractionated coconut oil. You can also use jojoba oil or avocado oil. You want a light oil that is safe for skin use.
Apply this daily, every few hours to boost your immune system. There are many places you can roll this on to!
Where to Apply:
- chest
- bottom of feet
- spine
- back of neck
- lymph nodes
- bridge of nose
- wrists
Stay safe during this crazy time and use this roller ball daily or when you feel like you have a cold or any sickness coming on!
*Note: Do not use this roller ball on young children. If you are interested in a immunity booster roller ball for children, let me know! But the amounts used in this roller ball and the specific oils are meant for adults only. This is a 5% dilution roller ball.
