From Jana D:

A friend from work was heading to New York for vacation and was quite nervous to go because of all the flu’s going around…she has to be extremely careful because she is a recent breast cancer survivor and her immune system is down. I told her to please let me fix you a little travel packet of the essential oils to take with you so that you can go in peace. She was very excited to try them.

I created her a hand gel from the Living Fearlessly Kit I purchased and also a lotion from the kit. I made the gel and lotion from the informational packet you e-mailed, they were simple to follow instructions and they work great! I gave her a little of the Defense also to take with her.

She came to see me yesterday after her trip and had brought me a gift of organic syrup in a Statue of Liberty bottle. She said she wanted to thank me because the oils were so amazing. She used the defense on the bottom of her feet like I instructed her and she also used the gel all the time. She stated that her bed in the hotel was making her itch and so she used the lotion before getting into bed and immediately got relief from the lotion and had no more itching. She said she felt so wonderful through her whole trip and that she really loves the essential oils and couldn’t wait to go into my web page to order her own.

This is what the oils are all about…making people feel wonderful without having to use harsh drugs that you buy over the counter. I am truly happy that I could help give her peace on her trip and also to help her to feel wonderful. Thank you so much for all of your info in helping me to know the oils and to be able to help others feel as wonderful as I do.

From Beth:

This morning at 3:00 my 14 year old son, who hadn’t been feeling great all day, woke up coughing and was totally miserable, unable to sleep etc.  I went back through the articles I had printed out and the battle began!

We started diffusing Ravensara, Lemon and Lavender, then applied eucalyptus over the bridge of his nose, Ravensara on his feet, tea tree lick every five minutes, chamomile on his back along with TLC because he was so agitated, then Spice of Life on his feet every 15 minutes. Exchange on his chest with a wet warm towel was also used.  I put a few drops of Lavender on a tissue in his pillow case and within ten minutes, he was fast asleep.  He didn’t even turn over until 8:00 this morning.  When he woke up he was feeling so much better, still some symptoms but much improved.

I couldn’t help but be so thankful that I had all of these wonderful oils in my home.  If I hadn’t read your emails and listened to the weekly calls (I listen to the recorded calls while I’m at my computer and love going back to listen over and over so I don’t miss anything) I wouldn’t have had any idea what to do for him. 

I am so thankful for these precious oils in my family’s lives.  I can’t tell you how empowering it felt to be able to go to my cupboard and find every oil I needed to offer comfort and relief to my son.

Spread the word so everyone knows there is a much better, more effective alternative to health care.

Cold and Flu Prevention and Treatment

Being prepared to care for ourselves in an emergency, such as flu epidemic,  brings the peace of self-reliance.  Past emergencies teach us that we will be better prepared to help ourselves and others around us if we do not count on immediate help from the government in times of emergency.  We may be assured that God will not leave us comfortless in times of trouble, that he has prepared a way for us to be blessed. Essential oils can be used preventatively and therapeutically without side effects.

An ABC News Report, September 16, 2005 explained that “essential oils do have a strong effect on viruses and infectious diseases and may offer us all the best chance at prevention and survival” in the event of a flu pandemic such as Avian Flu.  Alexandria Brighton, TRUessence Master Aromatherapist contributed to this news report.  The article continues:

Essential oils can offer an effective and yet safer and gentler alternative to antibiotics. With the rise of antibiotic resistant bacteria and new and stronger viruses (H5Nl) which we call “super germs,” health practitioners in many countries have turned to essential oils for treatment of their patients…The complexity of the natural essential oil compounds is what renders their active ingredients safe when used according to aroma therapeutic guidelines and what prevents the super germs from becoming resistant… one of their finest uses may be found in their ability to slow or render inactive pathogens and thus prevent a full blown infectious condition.

Essential Oil Prevention and Treatment Tips Using TRUessence Essential Oils and Essential Oil Blends

(These tips are explained by Peggy McFarland in a 30 minute podcast with Karen Skoog, Founder of FoodFamilyFreedom.com)

To Prevent Flu:

• Wash hands frequently. Avoid using commercial antibacterial soaps that kill the good bacteria along with pathogens.  Make your own handsoap by mixing 20-30 drops of TRUessence  Guardian Blend to an unscented non-antibacterial liquid hand soap.
• Make a disinfectant spray that you can carry with you to spray on doorknobs, shopping carts, toilet seats, as well as use around your home.  TRUessence Guardian (15-20 drops) in a 4 oz. mister of distilled water is a great solution.
• A disinfectant hand lotion can be made from an unscented lotion:  To 4 oz. lotion, add 10 drops Eucalyptus radiata, 10 drops Tea Tree, and 5 drops Peppermint.  Use this in place of waterless, anti-bacterial gels sold in stores.
  Add TRUessence Guardian to washing machines (10 drops)  and dishwaters (5 drops) to prevent spread of pathogens.
• Use TRUessence Defense on adult feet daily and TRUessence Kids Wellness Blend on children’s feet to boost immunity.

At the First Sign of Illness:

• If symptoms start, use the French Intensive Method using TRUessence Defense Blend: Apply 1 drop of Defense to each foot every 15 minutes for an hour; repeat every 30 minutes for another hour; then repeat every hour until bedtime.  For children, use TRUessence Kid’s Wellness Blend and follow the French Intensive Method of disease prevention.
• DIFFUSING is an excellent way to contain and eliminate airborn pathogens, as well as provide therapeutic relief.  At the first indication of the flu, begin diffusing 10 drops Ravensara, 5 drops Lemon, and 5 drops Lavender mixed together in a diffuser.  Diffuse until the oil is gone and repeat 3 to 4 times a day.  Be cautious when diffusing around animals, especially cats, since their bodies metabolize oils differently than humans.  Animals can safety return to the room after the diffusing is finished.

Flu Treatment

• Use TRUessence Exchange Blend in a diffuser or vaporizer at night (15-20 drops oil to 1 quart water) for adults.  Exchance Blend can also be diluted (6-10-drops) in a tablespoon of grapeseed oil and massaged onto the chest.
• Eucalyptus radiate can be added to water and used as a sponge bath to control fever (10-12 drops to a quart jar of room temperature water.  Be sure to shake well.  Do not let the person get chilled.
• If an adult does not have a history of liver problems, you can use TRUessence Spice of Life internally for an antibiotic effect.  Fill the bottom of a 00 size capsule with olive oil, then put 2 drops Spice of Life into the small end of the capsule.  Close capsule and ingest.  Take this 2-3 times a day for 7 days.  Again, this is not recommended unless you are using a therapeutic grade of oils.  Safety guidelines:  Internal use of oils is not recommended for pregnant women or small children.  Be careful to avoid contact with TRUessence Spice of Life oil with mucous membranes.
• For children 3 years and older, use 1 drop Tea Tree, 1 drop of Ravensara and 1 drop Eucalyptus radiate in 1 teaspoon of olive oil.  Put this mixture in a dropper bottle.  Add one drop of the mixture to a tablespoon of applesauce and give to the child 3 times a day.  For children under 3, do not give essential oils internally—apply a drop of the mixture on the soles of the child’s feet.
• Don’t forget to address the emotional symptoms of pandemic and other epidemic situations.  Support mood by diffusing TRUessence TLC Blend or by applying TLC Blend (1-2 drops) on a tissue and slip it inside the pillow case of someone who is feeling ill.
