Aromatherapy Treatments for Common Colds

Ingredients:
15 drops eucalyptus essential oil
(or use myrtle oil for children under 10 years)
15 drops sweet marjoram essential oil
10 drops lavender essential oil
10 drops rosemary essential oil

Preparation and Usage:
Put the essential oils into a small dark glass bottle and shake well.

Add four drops of the concentrate to a bowl of almost boiling water, two drops for children over five years. Cover your head and the bowl with a towel to form a tent and inhale the aromatic vapour for five minutes. Carry out the treatment two to three times daily.

Avoid steam inhalations if you have asthma.
