broken image

Baby has arrived! There are some oils that are perfect to use after delivery to help support your newborn.

Some parents feel comfortable applying the oils undiluted, while others would rather dilute. If you would like to dilute your oils, you may use 1 tbsp carrier oil to one to two drops of essential oil.
FRANKINCENSE is beneficial to anoint the crown of your newborn to help support them after the trauma of birth. It is the “king of ALL oils”, supports healthy cellular function, and promotes feelings of relaxation.

GROUNDING BLEND should be used on the bottoms of the feet, back of the neck, or down the spine to help promote a whole body sense of relaxation, help ease anxious feelings, and evoke feelings of tranquility and balance.

MYRRH can be applied to the umbilical cord to help seal the area, as it is has powerful cleansing properties and is soothing to the skin.

LAVENDER could be used after circumcision to help soothe the skin and ease feelings of tension.

LEMON can be applied to the bottom of the feet to support the liver and maintain healthy bilirubin levels.
