BREATHE

It's that time of year when those colds and flu's are knocking people down left and right. I just made some Breathe shower fizzies to help open my sinuses and invigorate me in the morning.  The essential oils in this blend are known for their abilities to combat airborne bacteria and viruses and for their ability to open and soothe the tissues of the respiratory system. It is one of my most used oils and I combine it with On Guard when I'm feeling under the weather. It is also a wonderful nighttime diffusion oil.

Body Systems Affected: Effective in alleviating and aiding various problems related to the Respiratory System.
