Just wanted to share a simple formulation that I love making to support my respiratory system, especially now that in Australia, we are heading into the colder months.
- 4 drops Ho-Leaf/Ravintsara (Cinnamomum camphora ct, 1,8 cineole)
- 3 drops Black Spruce (Picea mariana)
- 1 drop Peppermint (Mentha x piperita)
I created this blend because in the dark half of the year, I personally find it difficult to sustain my energy levels, let alone be able to focus on tasks I need to do.
In addition, I am prone to getting respiratory conditions. This inhaler blend, is great to not only invigorate the mind and body whilst sustaining one's energy level, but it also helps to support the respiratory system, deepen breathing, and help to prevent getting cold & flu due to the high 1,8 cineole, a-pinene, bornyl acetate, and menthol.
