“The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.” Voltaire

(Companion oil: Young Living ImmuPower™.)

Today, we’re departing from the usual metaphysical leanings of our Feel Good Fridays and helping out those for whom feeling good today would mean not having to spend the whole weekend sniffling, coughing or aching while curled up in bed.

Prevention is better than cure but no matter which phase you’re in, here are two of my ‘go to’ comfort essential oil blends for this scenario. (We usually concentrate on one oil blend on Feel Good Fridays, but when you’re fed up with feeling miserable, we need to up the ante!)

Young Living ImmuPower™

Diffuse and apply to the soles of the feet to bring about a sense of positivity and being cocooned in a fragrantly warm and protective haven against the outside world.

Young Living Thieves®

Diffuse for 15 minutes every few hours or so, and apply neat  — undiluted — to the soles of the feet as an alternate or companion oil to ImmuPower.  Young Living Thieves is fresh, spicy and energising, and a key ingredient in all of Young Living’s natural and non-toxic cleaning and oral hygiene products.  It has a way of lifting the spirits and feeling like your defenses are fortified and shielded.

As laughter is a wondrous medicine, we shall pause for a quip.

“If a doctor treats your cold, it will go away in fourteen days. If you leave it alone, it will go away in two weeks.” Gloria Silverstein

Bonus nutrition tip:  When warding off a possible lurgy, I lift my energy by adding a hefty slug of NingXia Red® to every glass of water until mid-afternoon.  I find its antioxidant boost and the fortifying benefits of Lycium barbarum (wolfberry) really help with keeping up my energy levels, and it keeps me well hydrated, too.  (For more tips on combating these kinds of things, click here.)

A man walks into the pharmacy and asks the pharmacist,”Do you have any acetylsalicylic acid?”

“Do you mean aspirin?” says the pharmacist.

“That’s it! I can never remember that word.”


And no Feel Good Friday post would feel complete without a good oil for the spirit.   When you’ve more than had enough of being under the weather, a few drops of Joy over your heart always works a treat.

Have a great weekend, and enjoy the good oil daily.
