Continuing the series of oils for the cold and flu season: Take all the normal precautions of staying as warm as possible when leaving the house and using a good natural bacterial combatant such as wild orange or lemon oil on your hands regularly. Get your rest. If you start coughing, however, these have worked well for my family:
For a dry cough:
- Fractionated coconut oil
- 4 drops eucalyptus oil
- 3 drops thyme oil
- 1 drop ginger oil
Put essential oils in a 30 ml. roller top bottle (well washed and steam disinfected), fill with the coconut oil, put on the roller top and the lid, and gently shake to mix. Apply to neck, rolling up and down, from beneath one ear to beneath the other ear every 2 – 3 hours (more often if needed, not more often than every 1/2 hour).
For a cough with mucus:
- Fractionated coconut oil
- 4 drops eucalyptus oil
- 3 drops thyme oil
- 2 drops melaleuca oil
Put essential oils in a 30 ml. roller top bottle (well washed and steam disinfected), fill with the coconut oil, put on the roller top and the lid, and gently shake to mix. Apply to neck, rolling up and down, from beneath one ear to beneath the other ear every 2 – 3 hours (more often if needed, not more often than every 1/2 hour).
