When My son first became sick we knew our lifestyle had to change. This did not just mean how we ate and what we did but it went down to the small basics of even how we cleaned. Logan is eleven months and therefore his mouth is all over the house and I literally mean his mouth. My cousin Miranda was a Young Living Representative and had a lady in her group discuss some of the health issues her son was having and how even though they still have to bring him in for treatments a few times a year, it is nothing compared to the multiple times a week or even a day. The symptoms were very similar to my sons and we decided to act upon it. Now I am not a full natural medicine heals everything, I will always suggest taking your child to the doctor when needed and discussing a reasonable plan of treatment. I had already used some essential oils at this point but had not fully dived in. I signed up for a starter kit and was hooked. Without all the harsh chemicals and bleach smells in the air, after sanitizing everything while trying to make sure my son did not catch anything to re place him in the hospital, my thieves cleaner and more natural cleaners have done the trick. They have helped to make sure Logan is not constantly breathing in too much chemicals that will make his breathing act up but will still give the sanitation effect. One of my favorite cleaners is my carpet refresher I personally DIY’d. In fact I love it so much that I started selling it! I am adding the recipe bellow.
Carpet Refresher
- Add one cup of baking soda to container of your choice.
- Mix in 7 drops of YL thieves essential oil.
- Mix in 10 drops of YL citrus fresh essential oil
- After mixing together let sit overnight so the oils soak into the baking soda.
When you are ready to use
- Sprinkle a light amount over the carpets.
- let sit for two hours.
- vacuum up baking soda.
The carpet refresher will give off a refreshing smell as well as adding thieves which will help boost your immune system as well give you an energizing feeling! The carpet refresher has been an essential in our cleaning lives and helps to keep my sons immune system up while we are working on his diagnosis.
