The Overindulgence Post on Thanksgiving Eve!

I'm not going to lecture or even try to convince you to go easy on yourself tomorrow, there's just too much food to sample and too many relatives to please.  Well...maybe a mini lecture...

All Things in Moderation.

(depending upon your interpretation)

Alrighty then, let's get on with the remedies!

Essential oils won't cure our lack of poor judgement but we can certainly make our lives a heck of a lot more pleasant during the aftermath by aiding digestion, hydration etc.

First and foremost, drink lots of water ~ with 2 drops of doTERRA Lemon essential oil.

By doing this, you will hydrate your body after all that salty food and a couple glasses or 5 of wine and, also enjoy the gentle detox the Lemon EO provides.

A blend of essential oils are really nice in a cup of warm tea with a little honey...especially when calming an upset tummy.  Grap a pretty cup, add a 1 teaspoon of honey and 1 to 2 drops of the following "I can't believe I ate the whole thing" blend.  

Honey Tea with Essential Oils

10  drops Wild Orange or Tangerine

2  drops Peppermint

2  drops Ginger

5  drops Lemon

3  drops Coriander

Blend all parts together and use 1 to 2 drops in honey tea. 

Might I suggest that you make this ahead of time to keep in the pantry for the rapidly approaching Holiday season?

...of course we love doTERRA DigestZen for all things stomach related too!

Morning After Essential Oil Bath Blend

5  drops Fennel

3  drops Lavender

5  drops Sandalwood

10  Lemon

Add 4 to 6 drops in a warm bath and soak for a good long time!

Again, this is a blend you can make up ahead of time to store in a small glass bottle in your medicine cabinet.

Merry Thanksgiving Everyone, be kind to yourself!
