One of my go-to wellness essentials year-round are essential oils. However, during cold + flu season they particularly come in handy for helping us stay above the wellness line. Did you know that essential oils have been used for their healing properties for centuries? They’re not only a great substitute for toxic candles, some oils contain amazing antimicrobial, anti-viral, anti-fungal + anti-inflammatory properties. Read on for my favorite essential oils to use in an immunity roller + diffuser throughout the fall + winter.
Disclaimer: We have used these oils with success in our family. However, I am not a healthcare practitioner + this is not to be taken as medical advice. And as with all health related items, always consult your healthcare practitioner before starting any new supplements, holistic or over-the-counter treatments. Be mindful of drug interactions + pre-existing conditions that may be contraindications.

Not all essential oils are created equal. For example, most therapeutic grade essential oils are NOT cheap because of the process that goes into procuring them. This includes agriculture, labor, extraction + testing. In short, always be sure to purchase from a reliable source that 3rd party test their essential oils for purity + safety.
