{"title":"Organic Balms and Body Oils","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere are many ways to use Essential Oils and one of my favourites is to apply them to my body after bathing. I am a bit fan of baths and find that when my skin is warm and just dry after a bath or shower, it very effectively absorbs oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI offer two options with these blends - make it yourself or buy ready made. Naturally, make it yourself is much cheaper and also gives you the option of altering the blend to make it just right for you.

When my children were little, I heard of a remedy where you simply smear your child's chest with honey, put a piece of kitchen roll or material over the top and, miraculously the cold stops! I was quite amazed by this, so decided to try it myself. Much to my delight it worked!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally, not everyone is happy to smear their chest in honey for a multitude of reasons and, sometimes, you want some vapours to assist with the related nasal congestion. Hence this balm was born. I combined honey, beeswax, arnice and rosehip oils and heated it. Once it had all blended, I then let it cool and added Spike Lavender, Ravensara and Eucalyptus essential oils. The result is a pocket-sized balm that can help support your body while you shake of a cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to save money and make it yourself, there is a kit option which contains enough to make over 20 times a single 15ml pot and only costs just over 8 times as much.
