WHAT ARE DOTERRA's BEST SMELLING ESSENTIAL OIL BLENDS?
This is of course a subjective concept and based on my personal feelings, tastes or opinions about doTERRA essential oils. However, I have been using doTERRA oils for about 8 years and they have never failed to impress me. My wife and I use essential oils everyday and I sincerely believe that our health and wellness has improved as we age.
We have commented between us on how others of a similar age seem to be less fit and active as we are. This is not of course solely down to essential oils, but it is about the overall mindset that essential oils brings to our lives. For example, we sleep better, we eat healthier and we are far more active. However, when we are under the weather we do not rush to the doctors. We find oil that will help and support us naturally.
Below are some of our favorite essential oil blend recipes as well as single oils.
doTERRA Peppermint Oil
I have been using peppermint oil almost from the first day I joined doTERRA. It probably comes from the times I ate peppermint candy when I was young at my grandmother's home.
The reason I find peppermint oil so good is because it is so versatile. For example, it can be used to:
- Freshen one's breath.
- Flavoring green tea and food.
- It can be rubbed on the skin to reduce swelling.
- You can add a few drops of Peppermint oil and Lemon oil in water to make a refreshing mouthwash.
I personally use it for my hay fever and allergies. If I have a really bad day, I put a drop on the back of my hand and take it internally. It clears my airways instantly and allows me to continue my day.
doTERRA OnGuard Blend Oil
I recently started using On Guard when I had a sore throat during the summer hay fever season. Since then I always have a bottle at home. I found that just a few drops of On Guard oil in a small glass of water and then gargled clears up my sore throat fast.
I have also started using of the last year or so doTERRA On Guard softgels. Again, it has greatly improved our overall wellness in our daily lives. This is because On Guard provides a great natural and effective alternative for immune support when used internally.
The ingredients include Wild Orange Peel, Clove Bud, Cinnamon Leaf, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Leaf, and Rosemary Leaf/Flower essential oils.
doTERRA TerraSheld Blend Oil
I have found this doTERRA blend is a must if you are travelling as much as we do. The bugs and insects get everywhere, in your clothes, hotel rooms and when you are out and about. So, when it comes to outdoor protection, no defence is better than TerraSheld.
For those who own horses and dogs, TerraSheld is a massive relief for the animals you love.
Horses: A few drops of TerraSheld along the neck and back of the horse will make a noticeable difference to your horse. Flies and mosquitoes will be much reduced, however, avoid putting this oil near the eyes.
Dogs: To reduce the amount of mosquito pestering your dog, rub a blend of coconut oil and TerraSheld in your dog's ears, but not too deep. Also, dilute 5 drops of TerraSheld with water in a spray bottle. Spray it over the dog while on your daily walk.
For the rest of us, just rub it on the parts of the body open to the elements such as bare arms, legs, neck, and even bold packs for men. The ingredients are Fractionated Coconut Oil, Ylang Ylang Flower, Tamanu Seed, Nootka Wood, Cedarwood Wood, Catnip Plant, Lemon Eucalyptus Leaf, Litsea Fruit, Vanilla Bean Absolute, Arborvitae Wood.
These are the three oils that are with me wherever I go, however I do have a few others I would like to recommend.
- Oregano oil as a powerful cleansing agent and has powerful antioxidant properties.
- Wild orange oil is a great oil for its multiple health benefits and energizing aroma that can uplift the mind and body.
- Lavender oils for calming and relaxing properties and one of the best doTERRA oils for sleep and ease feelings of tension.
