🌿CHILDREN AND ESSENTIAL OIL:
BREATHE ESSENTIAL OIL BENEFITS

Let’s quickly chat about dōTERRA Breathe essential oil benefits.  Breathe is one of dōTERRA’s most popular essential oil blends due to its powerful uses and benefits. Well known for its ability to maintain feelings of clear airways, Breathe is enriched with a series of oils that help cool and invigorate, promoting feelings of easy breathing. Breathe essential oil blend can be used both aromatically and topically to help minimize the effects of seasonal threats. This powerful blend can also be used to promote peaceful sleep. 

Ok let’s get into how to use Breathe oil with our kids!  One of my favorite things to make with Breathe essential oil is vapor rub!  It’s so much easier than you think, is more cost effective than purchasing it at the store, and – bonus – it’s natural and not filled with chemicals making it for babies up and kids of all ages!  Just melt ½ cup coconut oil with 2 tablespoons of beeswax.  When the mixture is cool enough to touch, add 20 drops of Breathe essential oil.  Pour into a 4oz glass container.  When needed, apply to chest or even the bottoms of feet.  Double the recipe and share with a new mom.  They will love you for it!  And, if you are super busy, you can always use the Breathe Vapor Stick.  This is a great “on the go” option!!

I’m sure you would love more sleep for you and your littles.  Enter breathe essential oil!  This essential oil blend can help maintain feelings of clear airways and easy breathing.  I add this into the diffuser at night with some lavender in my kids’ rooms, as well as mine.  I feel it allows us all to sleep deeper due to airways being opened. And with the lavender you will create a restful environment for everyone in the family!

 And speaking of airways, this is a great one to have on hand as the seasons change. You can apply a few drops of Breathe to the palms of your hands and inhale directly. You can also rub Breathe Touch (it’s a roller that’s diluted with fractionated coconut oil) on your chest and feet. 

 When we lived in Colorado, we loved to hike as a family.  I carried the Touch version with us since some of the places we hiked were over 10,000 feet above sea level!  The higher we climbed we would apply to our chests, and it allowed us to enjoy our hike a little more.

 Another great way to use this oil is in the shower!  Put it in the corner where the water doesn’t hit and take a shower that will open up those airways.  My kids are a little older now – not babies or toddlers – so they love to do this.

Before we end today, I do want to let you know about one of the other products in the Breathe product line.  We already talked a lot about the essential oil and talked about the Touch version (remember it’s the oil that’s diluted) and the Vapor Stick.  The last one I want to mention is the Breathe Respiratory drops.  These are amazing!  Instead of going to the store for cough drops, my family uses these instead.  I wouldn’t recommend these for toddlers but once your kid is old enough to eat hard candy, they should be fine with these – just use your mama instincts to make the best decision for your child. 

 That’s all I have for you today.  I hope you learned about Breathe essential oil benefits and a few ways to implement into your home.
