Aromatherapy Travel Kit oils

 

Going traveling? a few small bottles of Essential oils in a little cosmetic bag can really help.You can easily make your own kit.Peppermint - can be inhaled for a headache or rubbed into the temples. For nausea a drop on the tongue is a nice breath freshener. One or two drops helps reduce any kind of pain and bring down a fever. Lavender - to experience the relaxing effects place a few drops rubbed into the temples or placed on a tissue and inhale. I always carry a wash cloth in a Ziploc baggy on long flights. A few drops of Lavender on a wet cloth is so refreshing! Add 15 drops in your bath after you arrive at your destination, this has a calming and peaceful effect. Carry a small spray bottle with Lavender hydrosol and mist your face often. Rosemary - is a very perky and stimulating essence. To really feel awake the day after arriving, try placing a few drops on top of your head then duck under the shower. Refresh by rubbing a few drops into your temples and scalp. Rosemary also stimulates hair growth. Eucalyptus - for stuffy sinuses or a sore throat place a few drops on a tissue and inhale or rub into the neck. Add a few drops when having a hot shower or in your bath on arrival. Helps sore achy muscles from being cramped on long flights. Bay Laurel - place a few drops on a tissue and inhale. For swollen lymph glands rub a few drops in. Excellent for combating jet lag. Geranium - helps restore exhausted adrenals. Merely place a few drops on a tissue and inhale. Rub a few drops on your low back and kidney area. Add 10-15 drops in your bath after you arrive at your destination. A drop of oil in a glass of water is a good mouthwash and helps heal sores on the tongue, inside the mouth or lips. Geranium helps for burn out and exhaustion. ~source unknown~
