Back to school workshop
Welcome to our Back to School Workshop! If you’re here (and I’m so glad you are!), it’s probably because you want to support your kids the best you can as they head back to school. And I’m with you! I am going to give you all the info on my fave products and fall must-haves.
Wellness Roller
It’s no surprise that back-to-school means that sickness is coming too. Support those little bodies with wellness oils each and everyday to help boost immunity and fight off the ickies in a natural way.
In our home, we use a blend of thieves, lemon, and oregano to keep well.
Thieves contains antiviral and antiseptic properties to protect the body from the onset of illness. This oil gained its name by helping thieves steal and avoid the plague in the early 1300s.
Lemon has long been used to fight off sickness. It carries digestive, immune, and respiratory benefits.
Oregano has been used for centuries to fight infection. This oil benefits the immune and respiratory system, and your muscles and bones.
Roller Recipe-
10ml roller
5-10 drops Thieves
5-10 drops Lemon
5-10 drops Oregano
Top off with carrier oil
Apply to bottoms of feet & down the spine every day. Apply multiple times a day when you are combating sickness!
Inner Defense
This is for mamas and older kids that can swallow a soft gel. Inner defense is best when taken as soon as you start feeling that first sniffle or little tickle in your throat. It is a blend of clove, oregano, thyme, lemongrass, eucalyptus, rosemary, and cinnamon, all mixed up with coconut oil. Inner defense offers immune support, promotes respiratory function, and creates an unfriendly terrain for yeast and fungus. We always have these on hand, if they don't kick the yuck before it even starts, they definitely help move it along faster!
Thieves Hand Sanitizer
Hand sanitizer is pretty self-explanatory... kills 99.99% of germs and does it without the petrochemicals, mineral oil, parabens, sulfates, phthalates, synthetic fragrances, dyes, preservatives, or toxic ingredients.
It is lightly moisturizing because it has aloe in it and it doesn’t leave a gross sticky feeling either!
It’s easily our fave hand sanitizer OF ALL TIME!
kidpower
First day of school frights? Sport or activity frights? The newest kids oil provides children with a natural solution to facing everything life throws at them, big or small. Kidpower is bravery in a bottle! Anytime your little one needs a boost of courage or calming, Kidpower is your friend
This blend is made of black spruce, blue tansy, geranium, frankincense, ho wood, orange, and vanilla. It smells just like a creamsicle, so even you will want to wear this one everyday. The aromas released from these oils inspire positivity, courage, and confidence and ease occasional feelings of doubt and fear.
Whether your kids need a boost of motivation before heading out the door, or a peaceful moment at home, this is the perfect blend to have on hand. Apply to your kiddos directly on their wrists and back of neck for kidPOWER!
Sniffleease
One of my most favorite Kidscents oils. It is prediluted, meaning it's safe to apply topically to the most delicate skin, as well as diffuse.
It comes in a premade roller or a 5ml bottle. I recommend having both. Reach for this one if you or your kids are feeling stuffy or sniffly. It is also one I grab when any sort of seasonal allergies hit.
We like to apply it to chests, throats, and even on the bridge of the nose or sinuses. Just make sure little kids don’t rub it in their eyes!
Geneyus
Many children struggle with focusing and getting tasks done whether they’re in school or do school from home.
Help your kids stay focused, positive, and productive with Geneyus oil! Grab a roller or the oil bottle. Both are already pre-diluted and safe to put right on your kiddos to give them the support they need.
With Frankincense, Cedarwood, and calming botanicals, Geneyus is the perfect oil to add to the diffuser during homework time!
Head Lice Spray
What’s your worst nightmare when your kids go to school? Head lice? Mine too!
This DIY spray is great to use as a daily natural repellent to keep those critters away, but also for use if your child ever comes home with it, too!
How to mix it up:
Small spray bottle
4oz water
1tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
10 drops Tea Tree
6 drops Lavender
Spray every morning before your little one leaves for school.
If your child contracts lice-Spray on hair at night and wrap hair up. Comb through hair in the morning with a fine tooth comb and repeat until lice is gone.
Unwind
The most wonderful supplement for before bedtime to calm down those end-of-day crazies!
The world is a big and exciting place for kids with plenty to learn and do each day. From school to piano lessons to play dates and everything in between, it’s not surprise that our kiddos have trouble calming their minds and bodies in the evening hours.
Kidscents Unwind will help ease overstimulation and promote rest with:
L-theanine: Occurring naturally in green tea, L-theanine helps promote a sense of relaxation while helping ease occasional irritability. It also offers next-day benefits, helping improve and focus and mental clarity in the home and the classroom
5-HTP: Working synergistically with L-theanine, 5-HTP promotes a calm state and relieves occasional stress.
Magnesium: Naturally derived and necessary in over 200 metabolic reactions in the body, magnesium plays a role in defending against occasional sleeplessness and may also bring a sense of calm to your environment
Thanks for joining me and learning all the ways you can support your kids with Young Living products this back-to-school season!
