Ingredients:

• 4 drops Tea Tree Oil
• 2 drops Eucalyptus Oil

• 3 drops Lemon Oil

Tea Tree Oil: This versatile oil is renowned for its antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps to clear congestion, soothe sore throats, and fight off germs that cause respiratory infections.

Eucalyptus Oil: Eucalyptus is a classic remedy for respiratory issues, thanks to its decongestant and expectorant properties. It helps to loosen mucus, relieve coughs, and ease breathing.

Peppermint Oil: Peppermint offers a cooling sensation that can provide instant relief for nasal congestion and throat irritation. It also has antimicrobial properties to help fend off infections.

Lemon Oil: Lemon oil is packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, making it a great immune booster. Its bright, citrusy scent can uplift your mood and provide relief from coughs and colds.

How to Make:

• Combine the specified number of drops of each oil into a dark glass bottle.
• Shake well to blend the oils thoroughly.
• Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.

How to Use:

• Add a few drops of the blend to a diffuser to fill your space with the healing aroma.
• Dilute the blend with a carrier oil (such as coconut or almond oil) and apply it to your chest, throat, and temples for topical relief.
• Inhale the scent directly from the bottle or by adding a few drops to a bowl of hot water and inhaling the steam.

Safety Precautions:

• Always perform a patch test before applying any essential oils to your skin, especially if you have sensitive skin or allergies.
• Keep essential oils out of reach of children and pets.
• If you are pregnant, nursing, or have any underlying health conditions, consult with a healthcare professional before using essential oils.
