Essential Oils
 

We have been using essential oils for several years now, and have found wonderful health benefits to using them. I do not sell the oils, but just buy them from friends, or online.

However, I wonder if others on the forum would like to share about essential oils they may use, how they benefit you, and ideas on how to use them.

aside from coconut oil, which i swear by, i've always wondered how one uses the others myself!

Re: Essential Oils
 

There are a lot of uses and health benefits with using oils. I too love and use coconut oil, and use it for many different things, both cooking, and for my skin. I have made my own soaps, lotions, and lip balm using coconut oil. Love it!

I have also made my own orange oil as well. I add a few drops of other essential oils to it, and it makes a lovely oil to massage onto your hands or tired muscles.

Clove, Lavender, Eucalyptus, Frankincense, peppermint and lots of Tea Tree oil.

hmm, i just read where frankincense was a good cure for...something, some kind of cancer, maybe? And i use Dr Bronner's, spearmint, lavender, and tea tree. Good stuff!

I've used Frankincense oil for respiratory issues with allergies. What really cut to the chase and put me on the mend was a good grade of brandy in a hot toddy. I'm like, "That's it. I need some liquor to conquer this." :heeheehee

I use 30W oil in my mower and synthetic oil in my wife's car. I think my pickup uses 10W-40 or something like that. Those are all pretty essential to me.

I also occasionally use WD40 but I am not sure that counts as an essential oil.
