I began the odyssey of essential oils to help with my son's ever changing behaviors and I learned a few things. The top brands are all amazing and work great. There are also less expensive non-mlm brands that are just as well. Starting at the top, you have Young Living and Doterra. They are both excellent companies who sell amazing products and ensure some of the best testing and purity in the business. Then you have another top dog, Plant Therapy. They are a smaller non-mlm company who offers an excellent product. I've tried oils from all of these companies. I prefer Plant Therapy because they have a Kid Safe line of oils specifically tested and proven safe for use in children. They have a blog on their website full of great ideas, recipes and advice. Their customer service cannot be beat. I just love them. That being said, I am going to share a recipe that I came up with for my son with Autism, ADHD, tourettes, seizures, etc. I will list the recipe below. Keep in mind, oils affect everyone differently and what works for my kid may not work for yours. Here is the recipe. I hope this provides help for your child too, plus it smells really good. Enjoy!
Mommy's Magic Blend
2 drops vetivert
1 drop frankincense carteri
2 drops copiaba
1 drop clary sage
1 drop lavender
1 drop cedarwood
Mix the pure oils first in a 10ml dropper bottle, then add fractionated coconut oil as a carrier oil. This is equal to about a 2% dilution. All these oils are kid safe. For younger children, once you mix the pure oils, cut that in half, then add 10ml coconut oil. You can use almond oil or another carrier oil like olive oil, etc. I prefer coconut oil because of nut allergies and because it is just good for the skin.
Let me know if this works for your family.
