SUMMER FUN AND ESSENTIAL OILS
So glad summer weather is here! It is great to get out in the garden, or to relax on the patio. One of my favourite activities is a peaceful walk in the forest... until I end up jumping around, swatting mosquitoes, trying to stop the high pitched mosquitoe whine (or is it a buzz) in my ear!

Alas, I have found relief, that won't harm my skin, is 100% natural and smells nice too! I have been using doTerra's Terrashield essential oil blend. I rub a drop on each exposed arm and leg, and bit around my neck, ears and on my hair. The first time I did this I rubbed the oil on one arm and not the other. (Why not experiment?) I was intrigued to watch the mosquitoes hover over the protected arm, but not land. I did end up having some mosquitoes land and bite my unprotected arm. I will no longer choose to do that experiment. I will be prepared and use the Terrashield before venturing into the forest!

WHAT IS TERRASHIELD?

Aaaah, Just discovered the wonders of Vetiver, an aromatic essential oil by doTerra! I diffused it last night, and found I had the most wonderful sleep! Vetiver is a has a wood aroma that is most helpful for its balancing and grounding uses. Historically it is known for its soothing and calming effects, but also has stimulating effects on the nervous system. Vetiver is found it to be mentally and physically rejuvenating.

We have discovered that parents have found it highly effective in helping their children settle down for school work. 

Vetiver, with its calming properties, has been known to dispel anger, hysteria and irritability. 

I would love your feedback and see your comments.
