Wild Orange essential oils can be used for digestion, immune support, depression, and anxiety.
Peppermint essential oils is good for pain, digestion, hot flashes, allergies, and sinus congestion.
On Guard essential oil is a blend of wild orange, clove, cinnamon, eucalyptus, and rosemary essential oils that help to fight off viruses and bacteria. It can be used for mold, sinus infections, cold/flu, and is great during the winter to stay well (and it smells like the holidays).
How to Use Essential Oils
- Aromatically: Put a few drops in a diffuser to purify a space, affect mood, or help the respiratory system
- Topically: Dilute 3-5 drops with a tablespoon of carrier oil (like fractionated coconut oil) and apply to affected area or to bottoms of feet. Note: Use 1-2 drops diluted for children and babies.
- Internally: Add drops to water or empty gel capsules, and swallow. Great for the immune, digestive, and urinary systems.
Jenni's Favorite Ways to Use Wild Orange, Peppermint, and On Guard Essential Oils
- Diffuse wild orange for depression, add it to water to aid digestion and detoxification, or apply it to the back of your neck for energy.
- Rub peppermint (diluted for sensitive skin) on stomach in a clockwise direction for digestive issues, apply to sinuses as an anti-inflammatory, or diffuse for respiratory congestion.
- Add On Guard to water and gargle morning and night, apply to bottoms of feet (diluted) for immune system support, or dilute in spray bottle with water or white vinegar to clean.

Knitting for Beginners
Good Morning! Many of your are homesteaders, homemakers and crafters. You're already knitting and crocheting up a storm.
I've known how to knit since I was about 10 but it's been awhile since I've picked up my needles. To get started I checked out youtube and found a great video. Enjoy!
