No one likes an upset stomach, but digestive problems can go beyond discomfort. Our gut is often referred to as our “second brain.” When our digestive system is suffering, it can impact our physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
Chronic stress can lead to many forms of digestive dysfunction. That’s one of the reasons why the most effective essential oils for the digestive system are often the ones you find the most calming and soothing. If you’re looking for an overall blend to help support good digestion, GUT SUPPORT is a great choice to ease indigestion and help you feel more relaxed, which in turn, supports good digestion!
How Your Can Use GUT SUPPORT to Soothe that Sluggish, Achy Feeling
Bath, Foot: Mix 1-3 drops of essential oil blend in 1/2 teaspoon of carrier oil, such as fractionated coconut oil. Set aside. Fill a tub (deep enough to cover your feet and ankles) with warm water. Add the essential oil mixture, stir well, and immerse your feet for 10-15 minutes. Breathe in the aroma and massage your feet.
Compress: Fill a basin with water. (Warm water relaxes and increases circulation. Cool water invigorates and relieves inflammation.) Add 3-5 drops of this blend of essential oils and briskly stir. Lay in a washcloth, wring and apply to the area in need for approximately 1-5 minutes. Dip, wring and apply 3 more times.
Inhalation: Put 1-3 drops of the essential oil blend on a tissue and inhale the aroma through your nose. Pause and inhale again.
(Avoid touching your nose with the tissue.)
Massage: Mix 6-30 drops of Digestion blend in 1 ounce of carrier oil or fragrance-free, natural lotion. Gently massage the area of the esophagus and abdomen following the direction/flow of the colon.
