Orange Love

Meet my new friend, Orange essential oil.  I recently ordered a bunch of citrus oils from Young Living to try.  I have been reading so many positive things about all the citrus oils.  The citrus oils are very affordable, yet pack a powerful punch of goodness! I am putting together a series of informational posts about each of the oils that I will review for you.

Everyday uses you might like to try...
* Add a drop or two to water or unsweet tea to add flavor.
* Add a drop or two to hot tea or hot chocolate.
* Apply topically to skin for a fresh uplifting scent.
* Diffuse!!!!
This week my daughter was having a melt down getting started with homework.  I put orange and another blend called peace and calming in the diffusor next to her while she worked.  She went from tears to singing happy tunes to finish her work.
* Use as a degreaser, or make your own household cleaner.
* Add a couple drops to your favorite unscented moisturizer.
* For those that have undergone chemotherapy, it would be a great to help aid in healthy cell regeneration.
* May help increase libido.

A couple of things to note when using citrus oils.  

When mixing with water you always want to use a glass container.  Since citrus oils draw out toxins, when using plastic containers, citrus oils can pull out toxins from plastic and break down your container.  

Avoid using on skin if you are going to be in direct contact with sunlight or UV rays.
