Baby Care:

One drop of fennel oil taken internally by mother can increase breast milk production. Nutrition is key for tooth development so ensuring mom has high amounts of fat soluble vitamins A, D3 and K2 in her diet to pass on through her breast milk.

Birthing space welcome aroma diffuser:

Frankincense, neroli, rose otto, lavender or/and chamomile

Pillow spray for mother and child:

Neroli, bergamot or/and frankincense

Teething:

Teething can often challenge a baby’s immune system and may be accompanied by swollen gums, ear infections, colds, diarrhea and irritability.
Raising your little one’s dietary intake of phosphorus and vitamin C can be helpful during teething (and if you are breastfeeding, raise your intake too). To relieve discomfort, massage into the cheeks and jaw one drop of chamomile or lavender essential oil diluted with one drop jojoba oil. To calm inflammation, half a drop of organic clove and/or rose otto essential oil diluted in virgin coconut oil can be applied to the gums. These oils will also boost the child’s immune system.

Congestion:

Eucalyptus oil has a long history as a treatment for congestion from colds, infections and allergies. There are two great ways to use this oil. sprinkle a few drops of eucalyptus essential oil all over the bedsheets rather than directly on the baby. Or add a few drops to an aroma diffuser throughout the day and nights. As the baby inhales, the nasal passages will open and clear so that your baby can breathe freely.

Earaches:

Earaches can also be treated with eucalyptus oil. Place 1-2 drops on a cotton ball and gently insert it into the ear for a few hours.
You can also massage diluted lavender around the jaw and the area behind the ear.

Skincare:

Babie’s soft, delicate skin is sensitive and can be easily irritated. It is great to engage these fresh souls in the element of water, sunshine and fresh air and to let these liniments of nature help with your care. Except for the area of their derriere, which needs some extra tender loving care, babies do not need soap and sudsy baths. Add a little sea salt to bathwater but leave the bubbles aside. When you clean and moist your little one, it is vital to avoid petroleum-based products frequently marketed for babies, such as baby oil. Infants need to be cleaned, though, and essential oils can help you with that. A warm, damp cloth with a squirt of oil is the perfectly gentle, skin-microbiome-nourishing way to completely clean and care for baby’s fresh skin. Instead of soaping baby’s bum, a squirt of oil on a cloth is far more effectiveand simply protective against diaper rashes. We cut up an old flannel sheet into squares to use as wipes and used a little warm water and a squirt of jojoba oil for our derriere care. If a diaper rash occurs, let the baby have a few diaper-free hours, allowing fresh air and sunshine to be the rapid cure. We all love a good massage, and babies do too. Massage stimulates circulation, gets the lymph system moving, improves the immune system and relaxes and calms baby, preparing her for deep sleep. Jojoba oil is a good massage oil and then adding a little bit of lavender oil for the feet.

Colic:

Colic tummies are unpleasant for babies and tough on parents. A change in mom’s diet is the first step to easing colic. Try eliminating from your diet the common childhood allergens to determine which foods upset your baby’s tummy.
These foods are: dairy, nuts, soy, eggs, wheat and fish. Also, you can add ginger and fennel to your diet to pass along the tummy-calming elements to baby through your breast milk. If colic continues, give the baby a teaspoon of diluted water kefir or fermented vegetable juice to give the gut microbes a boost. In the meantime, as your diet takes effect, you can help your baby’s digestion by dabbing a few drops of colic calmer on your little one’s lower back and feet-places where her little wandering hands can’t reach. There are many ways to prepare for birth and just as many ways to give birth. They are not all like the birth scenes from movies like What to expect when you’re expecting. I highly recommend exploring the childbirth wisdom of other cultures to glean wisdom on subjects such as: baby-carrying slings that keep babies near the heartbeat of the father and mother and offer ease of access to breast milk; multitudes of massages for mothers before, during and after birth; and creating space for the mother and family to be reprieved from household chores for the first moon cycle as a new family. As much as childbirth is exhilarating, there is much that is exhausting; and holding the space for the reception of rest in the first months creates beautiful bonding and long-term fortification for the family.

You are my everything oil

For cleansing skin and massages for babies:

60 ml jojoba
20 drops seabuckthorn berry
10 drops frankincense
10 drops lemon
10 drops chamomile

Colic calmer:

30 ml jojoba
2 drops chamomile
3 drops lavender
3 drops cardamom
3 drops fennel
3 drops ginger

The beguilded child:

With the birth of a new baby, you have a fresh opportunity to endow your child with a legacy of understanding of the body and the mouth.
They can learn that their bodies are dynamic and regenerative.

Botanical blessings for bath and bed time:

Commercial soaps, bubbles, powders and shampoos can disrupt the delicate pH of a child’s skin. Add salt and baking soda to bathing waters to cleanse and refresh body and spirit. Splashing around in a salt bath may be all young skin needs to be clean. Hair washing need not be done daily either. It may sound strange, yet we wash our son’s hair only a couple of times a year, and his first hair washing was when he was three years old. By not beginning the cycle of shampooing, hair and scalp regulate their own oils, and all that is needed to refresh hair and “dust it off” is water. His hair and scalp never look unwashed, and his scalp is super healthy.

Lavender’s lullaby:

Sleep is one of the sweetest elixirs for any parent, and ensuring your child is soundly slumberring helps you get yours. Sprinkle sheets, infuse bedtimes baths, and diffuse with drops of lavender, tangerine and majoram. This quiet, comforting combination will be an aromatic lullaby for sweet sedation.

Teeth tips:

As teeth start to come in, wipe the teeth with a cloth dipped in saltwater and a tiny dash of baking soda. This will help clear plaque and neutralize acids. Teach children to swish with saltwater and spit it out, which will do most of the work. Later, brushing can begin, using salt and baking soda. At this time it is alsoawesome if you can teach your child how to do oil pulling, as a thorough brushing and flossing is, for any young child, practically impossible. Around two to three years old, the permanent teeth are forming and calcifying into the jawbone. If there is a nutritional deficiency of minerals and vitamins C, D3, K2 and A at this time, the teeth that are being formed will be less resistant to decay. Include plenty of food rich in fat-soluble vitamins and minerals in the child’s diet. Childhood cavities are not inevitable. If a carie (a dark spot on the tooth) forms, this does not necessarily mean a permanent caity is unavoidable. Brown enamel lesions can be halted and reversed from becoming a full-fledged cavity.

Healthy teeth tips for children:

1.Avoid bonding molars. This traps bacteria in the tooth.
2.Offer zero processed food.
3.In the beginning, stick to breast milk and water.
4.Floss when the teeth start getting close together.
5.Avoid fluoride-treated water and treatments.
6.Help ease teething with phosphorus and vitamin C.
7.Soak all grains and beans overnight before cooking to get rid of phytic acid.
8.Avoid all commercial toothpaste – stick to the basics: salt and baking soda.

Responsible use of essential oils will bless you and your baby with good health. You will discover how these plant gems are handy household friends that provide restorative remedies that help keep a family’s health buoyant and balanced. Always trust your intelligence and common sense as you care for your child. As your knowledge of plant botanicals grows, your intuition and attunement to your child’s needs will also blossom. Let your parental intuition guide you.

Optimal Oral Care & Self Dentistry

Teeth are alive! Like the eyes, the limbs, and the internal organs, they respond to all the same internal factors, such as nutrition, bacteria, and trauma. Living teeth can heal. Saliva contains chemicals and enzymes that exist solely to take care of the teeth. Healthy teeth exist in a sea of saliva, a sea of saline alkalinity. Too acidic, it dissolves the enamel on your teeth and creates an environment that supports bacteria. With decay, saliva jumps into action to coat the tooth with its beautiful healing fluid. The quality and quantity of saliva hinges on hydration, so drink up!

Invisible Tooth Brush

Operating much like the lymph system, there is a microscopic flow of fluid in the teeth that originates near the intestinal area and flows upward and outward through the teeth flushing out toxins, providing nutrients for the teeth’s mineral matrix, and repelling microbial biofilm on the tooth surfaces preventing tooth decay and gum disease. It flows through the pulp of the tooth and into the enamel, like sap in a tree. If this fluid flow is compromised, the flow reverses and draws fluids inward from the mouth into the teeth like a straw. This reverse flow sucks bacteria and acids from the mouth into the teeth. Reverse flow is Influenced by:

Dietary sugar, processed foods, additives, and deficiencies in dietary nutrients
Stress/cortisol
Hormonal shifts: low thyroid activity, pregnancy, the teenage years, and growth spurts
Lack of movement/exercise and lymph stagnation
Medication, oral care chemicals, antibiotics, and fluorideDiet for Healthy Flow: Eat a variety of whole foods. Include fat-soluble vitamins K2, D3, and A. Eliminate wheat.

Your Mouth, Your Health, Your Beauty: There is a relationship between the mouth and the metabolism of the rest of the body. Our Teeth are connected to every organ and gland via the blood stream. Any infection that the mouth harbors, any metals, and any toxins in our mouths, affect our overall health. Start by ditching most of the products that you use, like toothpastes and mouth washes that only give an illusion of freshness. The chemicals used in commercial oral care products, including many of the brands sold in health food stores, contain chemicals that you do not want in your mouth: glycerin, sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol, FD&C color pigments, formaldehyde, Triclosan (a registered pesticide and bio-persistent chemical that destroys fragile aquatic ecosystems), artificial sweeteners, and synthetic isopropyl alcohol. They also contain synthetic versions of cinnamon or peppermint, called cinnamon aldehyde or menthol. Synthetic flavorings don’t actually do anything for oral care. It is best to be minimalist about it and use a dry toothbrush with a dab of salt, baking soda, or a botanical tooth serum.

The Tools

Toothbrush:Use a soft, dry brush and brush so lightly that in six months your toothbrush looks just like it did the day you bought it. An electric toothbrush with a soft, rounded head are also great; it helps you reach the challenging areas behind the back and front teeth. In my opinion, the less expensive brands work just as well as the pricier brands.

Tongue Scraper:You can buy a tongue scraper at any health food store or you can use the edge of a spoon. Scrape your tongue from back to front and rinse it in hot water. Repeat until your tongue is clean, usually in 2-3 scrapes. You may also add one drop of an essential oil or combination serum to the scraper.

Floss:I prefer to use unwaxed floss and to add a single drop of a botanical oil to it because the oil can reach the bacteria between the teeth in the tiny spaces too small for floss.

Sulca brush:Use this rubber-tipped or brush gum tool with an essential oil or to gently go over the gum line to remove buildup.

Mouth Rinses

Saltwater brine eliminates microbes and makes the mouth alkaline, creating a neutral palate for brushing. It can come in handy after a meal when it is less-than-ideal to brush your teeth.

Homemade Mouthwash

Make a strong salt water rinse by dissolving salt in warm water – you want it to taste like the ocean. Baking soda is also a good rinse. Saliva is similar biochemically to baking soda and it is also alkaline, which is exactly what the saliva needs. Combine a tablespoon of baking soda in 1/2 cup of water. You can add a single drop of cinnamon and peppermint per mouthful for a zippy taste.

Nine steps to Successful Dentistry:

1. Start with our salt and soda mouthwash

2. Scrape the tongue a couple of times

3. Brush the gums, use a soft, dry toothbrush and apply a drop of our mct oil tooth serum

4. Polish the teeth with a dry round headed electric toothbrush with our coconut oil based toothpaste

5. Clean the gum lines with a sulcabrush or a rubber-tipped gum tool

6. Floss and apply another drop of mct oil tooth serum along the floss

7. Saltwater rinse or oil pull using sesame oil/ olive oil /coconut oil, swish around mouth for 5 minutes and spit out

8. Use an oral irrigator or a blunt tipped syringe with the salt and soda mouthwash to rinse the gum pockets and take care with any receding gums

9. Massage gums + teeth with our gum rejuvenation and recovery cream

Bubbly Bath Balms & shower Cream

Baking soda is an essential ingredient of any bathroom cabinet; and when it is mixed with vitamin C (ascorbic acid) fizzy bubbles or carbon dioxide are made. This fizz makes bath time fun, and these carbonated bubbles break down the sodium bicarbonate into tiny bubbles, which makes the CO₂ exponentially more bioavailable and permeable through cell membranes – and this is a good thing! Bubbly CO₂ bathing was popularized in European water spas, as it is relaxing to blood pressure, improves blood flow, soothes kidneys, and shifts the body’s pH to a more alkaline state.

Sun Care

Sun Block SPF 30+

A sun block is different to a sun screen similar to the difference between oitments and creams. A sun block will sit on the surface of the skin acting as a barrier for your skin blocking uv rays. A sun screen must be absorbed into the skin in order to offer the protection. I am using zinc Oxide in this recipe as it is not absorbed by the skin and even though it is a completely natural mineral, due to it been very rare it is very often produced in a laboratory using the mineral zinc and oxidising it. It is a safe product to use and extreemley effective as a sun block. Adding it to the ingredients below will make a beautiful sunblock for yourself and family.

20g of shea butter melted

20g of cocunut butter melted

20ml of Hemp oil

20g of cacao butter melted

10 drops of sea buckthorn oil

10 drops of carrot seed essential oil

5 drops of lavender oil

5 drops of tea tree oil ( to add as an insect repellant if desired)

15g Zinc Oxide (non-nano, uncoated zinc oxide) – Non Nano means that there are no tiny particles that can get into your lungs and skin

Ingredients Explained:

Coconut Oil: Natural SPF of about 2-8, antibacterial, natural moisturizer, full of antioxidants and nutrients your skin needs. Coconut oil has an amazing ability to heal the skin and block the damaging effects of UV radiation from the sun. One of the reasons why it is so effective in protecting the skin is its antioxidant properties, which helps prevent burning and oxidative damage that promotes skin cancer. There have been several recent studies done on the use of coconut oil as a sunscreen but there are fluctuations in the SPF rating of coconut oil. One study “proved” a rating of only 4 while another rated coconut oil at a 10

Hemp Seed Oil– The oil extracted from hemp seed is said to closely resemble the body’s natural lipids. Lipids refer to molecular compounds considered important for cell growth due to their large carbon and hydrogen content. Lipids do not easily mix with water because their properties are more related to fat substances, although not all lipids are fats. As sunscreen protection, it is easily absorbed by the skin to provide the essential fatty and essential amino acids as well as other nutrients. All these are needed for proper keratin formation in the skin, teeth, nails and hair as a major protein component. Hemp seed oil has an SPF rating of 6

Shea Butter: Shea butter melts at body temperature and absorbs rapidly into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling. It contains the antioxidants, vitamins A and E both of which enhances skin cell regeneration and promote blood circulation below the skin’s surface. Cinnamic acid in the oil provides vital protection against harmful UV rays. Its rich emollient quality makes it excellent for very dry skin. SPF 6-8

Carrot Seed Oil: Carrot seed oil is an essential oil with significant antioxidant, antiseptic, antifungal and fragrant properties with high levels of vitamin A. When applied topically to the skin in the form of a diluted carrier oil, carrot seed oil also provides natural sun protection. Carrot seed oil has a natural SPF of 38 and 40

Sea Buckthorn Oil– An unsurpassed natural source of vitamins A and E, carotenes and flavonoids. They are also rich in several other vitamins, including B1, B2, K and P as well as in more than two dozen microelements. Sea buckthorn oil is known for reducing the damaging effects of the sun’s radiation. The restorative action of sea buckthorn oil may be partially due to the high content of fatty acids and essential fatty acids, carotenes, tocopherols and phytosterols, all important for the maintenance of healthy skin. The fatty acid content of seabuckthorn berry oil is 80 – 95%. The major fatty acids contained in sea buckthorn oil are oleic and linoleic acids. It has an SPF of 2-4

Zinc Oxide: Sun protection.

How Much Zinc Oxide to use:
Anywhere from 5-20% of the total solution is generally considered to be effective, with 20% having a higher level of protection. You may find the information below helpful in determining your measurements. I have not tested these ratios in a lab for SPF value. If you’re looking for moderate protection, measure the lotion you are going to use and then add 10% of it’s weight in zinc oxide. Note: Huge differences in SPF numbers are actually pretty insignificant when it comes to differences in protection. SPF 100 blocks 99 percent of UVB rays, while SPF 50 blocks 98 percent. SPF 30 blocks 96.7 percent, SPF 15 blocks 93%.

Radiation Rejuvenation

4oz/120ml organic jojoba
1 teaspoon/5ml seabuckthorn berry

20 drops/1ml lavender
20 drops/1ml sandalwood
10 drops geranium
10 drops immortelle (Helichrysum italicum)
