Some handy winter wellness ideas to try
//PREVENTATIVE//
Flu-bomb spray
Use topically at the first sign of symptoms or several times a week during the winter months for preventative support. Consider making an OnGuard topical roller for your handbag too!
Daily morning wellness tea
I drink this most mornings after yoga but before eating.
DIY Foaming hand soap
Easy to make as you can see and gets rid of germs quickly without chemicals, plus it smells great!
If I’m pressed for time I also use the doTERRA foaming hand-soap concentrate and 1/4 fill the foaming handpump bottle, then top up with water.
// REACTIVE REMEDIES//
DIY Soothing throat syrup
Both fast to make and effective!
Add 1Tbs to hot water with fresh lemon or lime and drink as often as needed until symptoms shift. Can also take straight off a spoon for fast throat relief. Also consider diffusing / topical use of oils as appropriate.
Soothing chest balm / rub
Kitchari
A warming meal for post birth, anytime in winter, during a gut cleanse or just because its yummy! Full recipe here
