The scent of peppermint was noticed in a meeting this week, which prompted me to share my secret –  I dab a few drops of peppermint essential oil behind my ears for a burst of energy.  It seemed to peek interest, so I decided to blog about a few of my favorite essential oils…

Lavender is at the top of my list.  With hundreds of benefits, lavender is one of the most powerful remedies in the plant world, offering relief for burns, migraines, insomnia, insect bites, skin problems, infections, stress and nervous tension.

Peppermint is not just great for energy and alertness, it also relaxes spasm, strengthens gums, stops hair loss, lifts skin, induces firmness in muscles, promotes memory, clears congestion & eases breathing, reduces fever, and relieves stomach ailments.

Lemon is another essential oil with amazing health benefits – insomnia relief, boosts the immune system, weight loss, treats asthma, brightens complexion, lowers blood pressure and improves circulation
