IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR

 Recipe for Chest and Sinus Congestion

After seeing how many of you came in with sniffs and splutters today I thought Id dig this one out for you.
I used this last year and although I have to say its not a cure, it certainly relieved my symptoms. And if you've seen the size of my nose then you will understand why I think this will work for anyone!

2 Drops of Eucalyptus Oil
2 Drops Lavender Oil
2 Drops Tea tree Oil

  1. Half fill a ceramic basin with boiling water
  2. Add essential oils, listed above whilst the water is still steaming
  3. Cover basin and head with a towel and inhale for at least 3 minutes
Thats it, so simple and yet very effective, 

Always be careful not to scold yourself when using boiling water and stand bowl on a safe but heat resistant surface.

Simply Sleep

Lavender Oil

Probably the longest serving of essential oils and safe for all the family to use.

If you want a relaxing, peaceful nights sleep then nothing could be simpler.

Two different ways to use Lavender:

1. Put 3-4  drops directly onto a fabric hankerchief and place inside the top of your pillowcase and simply lay down and breath in the essence of this wonderful oil.
2. Using a de-fuser simply defuse 3-4 drops of Lavender oil for half an hour in your bedroom before going to bed. (REMEMBER TO EXTINGUISH ANY CANDLES AND NEVER LEAVE A BURNING CANDLE UNATTENDED)

Have a good nights sleep!

Beat the Winter Blues

I can't believe its only 6pm and its dark already, well I love the dark nights if I'm honest, a chance to light the log burner and burn some candles and I do a lot more reading, however it can be quite depressing for some. I have a recipe for a pick me up room spray that really makes you chirpy!

You'll need a 4oz fine spray bottle for this, I use an old facial toner bottle but there are all kinds of bottles available without buying one, just ensure it has a fine spray.

OK The Recipe
Essential Oils
3 Drops Bergamot
3 Drops of Grapefruit
2 Drops of Jasmine
3 Drops Lime

Method:
Blend the oils together
Add the blended oils to the bottle and top up with spring/mineral water (still)
Spray into your room any time and as many times as you like to help lift, prevent and alleviate depression.

All these oils are available at CinnaMoon or you can order from our shop www.cinnamoon.co.uk

Have a wonderful weekend!

Anxiety Relief


I was asked for this one today and to be honest with the prices that the chemists charge for these remidies I am seriously considering making my own to sell.

OK this one is a body application, again please be aware that i can't accept responsibility for any side effects from these oils, although most of the time they are very safe, some people are extra sensitive so always do a small test for 24 hours first.

Blend Essential Oils
3 drops of Bergamot
3 drops of Lime
3 drops of Orange
3 drops of Vetiver
30 ml of Carrier Oil (Grapeseed is reasonably priced and as good as any for this blend)

Once blended, leave for 24 hours in a fastened bottle
Apply as required to wrists, chest, neck and feet, this helps to reduce or eliminate anxiety.

WARNING
Avoid Bergamot,Lime or Orange if your skin is going to be exposed to excess sunlight within the next 24 hrs
Do not use essential oils directly onto the skin, always dilute.

Some oils may be out of stock in our shop but you can order them directly in-store or on our website at www.cinnamoon.co.uk

Soak away your Cold.



Perhaps your already familiar with essential oils, but I think we can all discover something new about them all the time:

Did you know?

To help ease a cold:
Blend together
2 drops Eucalyptus essential oil
2 drops Lavender essential oil
2 drops Rosemary essential oil

Add these to a warm bath and soak for a min 20 mins.
Pat yourself down with a large fluffy towel to avoid wiping off any oil.
Relax and let the oils continue to do their work.

All these essential oils are available from our shop: Cinnamoon. Finkle Street. Richmond or online at www.cinnamoon.co.uk

Warning:
1 Do not blend Eucalyptus if you have high blood pressure and do not use on young children.  It may irritate sensitive skin so stop using immediately if this is the case.
2 Avoid using Rosemary during pregnancy or if you suffer from epilepsy.
3 Do not use these oils on the skin neat, always dilute.
This information is for guidance only and although generally safe you should consult a professional practitioner if in any doubt.
