Tired of having a cough or a child with a cough? Nowadays it can be embarrassing, distracting and it can be really hard to sleep. I’ve been using essential oils for over 11 years now with six kids and I know the essential oils for coughs that work and so I want to show you what works fast and the three different ways that you can use them. Welcome to my channel i’m Stacy Paulsen i’m an essential oil educator health and business coach and i’ve been using essential oils for over 11 years so i’ve been learning how to use them through all stages of life and i was a former skeptic term believer and now i’m obsessed with helping others learn how to use essential oils to naturally take care of their health.
If you feel called to more make sure that you like this video and click the red subscribe button and bell notification i often get asked do essential oils work for coughs what essential oils stop coughing what is the fastest way to get rid of a cough as well as what can i do what can i diffuse for a dry cough and what can i use for my kids cough so i want to answer these with three different ways that you use oils and then the oils that i specifically use for coughs now the most effective way of the three ways to use essential oils for coughs is internally now i have to say that not all essential oils are made equally and so not all of them are you’re able to actually consume so you’ll want to make sure you check the label and i only use certified pure tested grade from doters.
And the reason why is because of the quality of the oil i know that it’s pure there’s no contaminants it’s not going to be toxic if you are using oils that you can’t use internally then this doesn’t apply you can skip to the other two ways that you can use them for coughs but i love Deterra’s on guard blend which is a protective blend and it contains cinnamon clove wild orange eucalyptus and it’s amazing for helping to get rid of that cough really fast so the first way that you can use this is you can just put a drop right in your mouth and then you swallow and you might want to follow that up with some water it’s pretty intense so that’s not for everyone another way to do it which is not quite as tense you get a little bit less oil is put a drop on your hand right there and you lick it that’s the cleanest part of your hand and then another way that you can use these is doters has these on guard beadles.
And they’re just it’s a third of a drop of the on guard blend it comes in a little ball like that and you put it in your mouth and you just pop it and then you swallow it this is great for kids because it’s a little less intense easy to do and then if you’re out and about it’s just an easy way to get the oils in you another cool thing they have are these on guard lozenges throat lozenges and so you can just suck on one of those if you know that oftentimes at certain times or you want to make sure you don’t have the cough when you know maybe you’re giving a talk in church or something that you can use these preventatively proactively another thing that i found is that if you use a hammer and just kind of crush it up in there because you don’t always need that whole thing that you just grab a little piece of it this is great for kids who might need a smaller bit.
So those are some ways that you can use that another thing that you can do is you can make your own throat spray so if you have empty bottles i usually just save all my bottles i have a little jar over here and you can pop off that orifice thingy like this maybe you just pop that off and you can buy these little spray bottles.
And you just measure it to about the you can cut off that little wick i have this an empty on guard i will fill this up with water and maybe put 10 drops of on guard in it it already has some residual from being old and then you just pop on the lid and then it’s a spritzer so that’s an easy one especially if you have a cough often another thing that you can do is that you can gargle so if you get a shot glass or a little jar of water and just put a couple of drops of on guard in there then you can take it and you can gargle what i do with my kids is they will gargle and then they spit gargle spit and then on the third time i have them swallow so it gets a little bit deeper down in there so this is really good.
If you’re at home or a place where you have water that you can do that if not then the on-the-go ways are the ones that you want to use as a mom okay you can tell that.
I’m a mom of six kids so sometimes this is what i do because they don’t want to taste it they don’t necessarily want it on their tongue i will put a drop on my hand and then i will take some fractionated coconut oil on my hand and then i rub my finger in it and they open their mouth and i actually just put it back there they almost gag but not quite gag but it gets it back there so it’s not in their tongue because i do have one daughter that doesn’t like it but she’ll say yeah you just stick your finger down my throat so that’s just another option for the coughs you can also make this kind of the up level you can also make a little tea in a cup peppermint tea works great and then put your on guard and then i will also put lemon.
And tea tree in there with the on guard and you can just be drinking.
It and it’s very soothing to your throat one thing that i recommend if you’re ever doing it with water if you’re gargling or if you’re drinking that with on guard or oregano that you put a little bit of ChapStick on your lips it prevents a little bit of the burning that might it’s kind of intense some people don’t like it my kids don’t like it so they’ll put ChapStick on before they either gargle or drink the homemade tea and i would love for you to comment below if any of this has been helpful if you have any questions about it or if there’s other things that you have used internally to help with the cough the second way that you can use essential oils for coughs is topically so putting them on so putting them on your throat putting on your chest now i love using breathe.
It’s a blend from doters and then also frankincense essential oil these that combination seems to work really well for cough so this would be either during the day you want to put them on if you don’t love the smell this might be something that you just do at night that’s proactive to help you to sleep through the night so that cough doesn’t come or if it does that you can be putting those on rubbing them in so what i recommend though is that you dilute them if you’re using the breathe and frankincense together then use some fractionated coconut oil or olive oil which does kind of stain your clothes so that’s why i like fractionated coconut oil and or lotion and especially if you’re putting them on for your kids just put a couple drops with that and then you can rub it on their rub it on your chest doters does have these are called touch oils so these are already pre-diluted in a roller bottle so you can just rub them on and i recommend.
If you rub it one on the next one you put in your hand your hand and then rub it on so that you’re not getting cross contaminating oils with the roller bottle and then also we have a cough blend that we created it is the breath and the frankincense together.
With fractionated coconut oil we just put it in a roller bottle put a little label on it cough blend and this is one that’s great on the go can be in your bag could be in a backpack and a purse at the office wherever that you can be rolling that on your throat now if you want to up level this maybe it’s a little more intense of a cough that you can use like a heat pad after you put them on i like using rice past packs or wheat packs this one is just one that i made it has wheat in it sewed it up if you’re not a sewer you can get like an old sock and then knot it off at the end and then you put it in the microwave for a couple of minutes and heat it up and then just make sure it’s not too hot for your skin.
And then you can put that on you can also get a hot washcloth that’s wet with hot water and you wrap that around and then maybe wrap another cloth around i remember my mom doing this and waking up with that wet cloth but you can take it off but it just drives the oils in deeper so it’s kind of the up level topical use of essential oils also i have a great beginner’s guide that you can grab that will help you get started with oils if you already have them in your home or if you’re going to be getting started want to dive in you can go ahead and grab that below okay so the third way that you can use essential oils for coughs is by diffusing breathing them in you actually when you breathe them in part of those will go down into your throat and can help with those coughs and it’s a super easy way to do that um it helps with preventing those sometimes.
I will just you know i could feel something coming on so it’s a way that you can do it helps to boost your immune system throughout the night if you’re diffusing throughout the night and also may help other people in the room so it’s not just benefiting you so i love to use the breathe and frankincense and then you can also add lavender to that if maybe it’s nighttime help with the sleep now there’s four different ways that you can diffuse the most effective.
Way that you can diffuse essential oils is through a nebulizing diffuser so this is one of those what it has is some water and a little disc that vibrates really fast that and then you put some oils in and the oils attached to the water molecules that are put into the air and there is such fine mist that they stay in the air two to three hours after it’s turned off so it’s one of the most efficient effective ways to use oils because you use a small amount it affects everybody in the room.
And it lasts a really long time and that you’re consistently just breathing them in now i have another video coming up where i do a review on diffusers so that you can be guided in what’s most effective for you cost effective for you so you can grab that if you subscribe it will be coming up next so hit the red subscribe button if you want to be notified of that one now the next way that you can diffuse is i love aromatherapy or essential oil inhalers they look like this.
and you make them yourself and there’s a wick inside that has the oils on there and you just breathe it in and so these are an easy on-the-go way to diffuse that it’s in your car purse backpack you name it it’s an easy way to just bring that out or maybe you can’t bring a diffuser everywhere but if you’re sitting at work or in your home going to bed you can diffuse and that’s the most effective way but the next one would be using a little inhaler you can check the cards there or in the description I’ll link up the recipes that i have for essential oil inhalers and diffusing.
As well as how to make these inhalers they’re super inexpensive and they last a couple of years and then another way that you can diffuse is through jewelry so these are diffusing bees they’re lava beads and you just put a few drops of oils on there and throughout the day you can just be smelling those this is also a diffuser necklace so there’s a little felt pad in there you can open it up put the oil on there and then just breathe it in so that’s an on-the-go way of diffusing and then the last and simplest way that you can diffuse is actually just breathing it straight from the bottle so those are some options for you for essential.
