Eucalyptus is useful for bronchitis, colds, flu, asthma, and any problem in the respiratory system. It is one of the best oils for bringing down a fever.

Eucalyptus helps us find our survivor spirit. Eucalyptus taps into the inner strength in each of us. It can help us develop unfaltering faith in ourselves and in divine assistance. It strips away doubt about our abilities, removes negativity and hesitation, and pushes us forward. Eucalyptus calms our spirits and opens our minds to see the way ahead clearly.

Eucalyptus is a strong analgesic. It can be applied alone or as part of a blend for muscle aches and headaches. Well diluted, Eucalyptus is good for skin rashes and makes a very good energizing massage oil.

Myrtle is a very anti-inflammatory and decongestant oil. These properties make it useful for diarrhea, bladder infections, sinus infections, and lung complaints such as asthma, bronchitis, and chronic coughs.  Myrtle regulates the functions of glands in the endocrine system. This effect is seen most clearly in the stimulation of thyroid activity and in the decongestion of the prostate.

Myrtle has a stabilizing effect on hormones and supports immune function.  It is a good skin care oil and aids the digestive system.

Myrtle, since it removes some of the stresses in our lives through grounding and organization, is often useful for insomnia.

The right homeopathic remedy works very rapidly.  As with all healing stimulated energetically, the more recent things respond and clear first.  That makes homeopathic remedies ideal for flu season.

There are several that I would not want to be without for flu situations.

If you take the time to study homeopathics (blessed waters) and then learn how they can be used for the flu, it will be one of the best things, you could ever do for yourself and your family.

A great place to start when learning about homeopathics is with this blog Homeopathy – Basic Principles.

Flu Symptoms #1

Flu Symptoms #1 The focus of this combination is digestive disturbances (flu-like symptoms) brought on by prolonged mental effort, stage fright, or performance anxiety. Along with digestive disturbances, the symptom picture may include fear, feelings of helplessness, anxiety, sleeplessness, vertigo, and, perhaps, a sensation of coldness alternating with rushes of heat.

Flu Symptoms #2

Flu Symptoms #2 A very potent and effective intestinal flu remedy. Includes remedies for physical symptoms of flu such as fever, cough, stomach pain, sour belching, headache, aching bones and muscles, and great weakness. The Gelsemium in this remedy aids the body in returning to normal energy levels after the exhaustion and prostration that often accompanies a bout of flu.

Respiratory #1

This remedy should be considered for extreme lung issues where lymph is clogged not just in the lungs but throughout the entire body, including such other internal organs (along with the lungs) as the pancreas and intestinal tract. Butterfly Expressions, LLC, essential oil blend ^LeStefanie was created as a companion to Respiratory #1 and should be considered for use at the same time.

Respiratory #2

This remedy was potentized (made into a Homeopathic/Blessed Water energetic remedy) from two herbal ingredients. Osha is considered one of nature’s strongest anti-viral remedies. Lungwort, reflecting its name in its healing properties, is known to be effective for pulmonary issues from mild ones (coughing, hoarseness, irritation) to deeper ones such as bleeding in lung tissues.

Respiratory #3

This combination remedy appears to focus on dry, irritated coughs that are made worse by changes in atmospheric pressure such as flying or weather changes. Interestingly, the symptoms are made worse by deep breathing (running or just trying to take deep breaths) and are often triggered by bouts of anger or resentment that are held deep inside the mind and heart.

Respiratory #4

Only one remedy in this combination (Vespa crabro—wasp venom) is strongly indicated for lung issues. The other two, a Bach Flower remedy and a remedy made from soothing mineral springs water—are strongly emotional in nature. The Bach Flower Remedy is listed in the grouping for those who suffer despondency and despair. The other remedy, Teplitz aqua, is indicated for similar feelings but of a less severe depth.

Respiratory #5

The remedies in this combination influence far more than lung issues. They target kidneys, glands throughout the body, the pancreas, eyes that are sensitive to light, bone diseases, headaches, confusion, difficulty concentrating, and depression brought on by recent or even long unprocessed grief and loss.

^LeStefanie was developed to help fight antibiotic-resistant pseudomonas bacteria, especially in the lungs. This blend has a great affinity for the entire respiratory system. ^LeStefanie should be considered for any respiratory problems, such as asthma, bronchitis, chest colds, or flu.

The Melissa oil used in this blend is one of the strongest antiviral, antibacterial essential oils in the essential oil repertory. This blend is anti-infective, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiviral, sedative, antidepressant, and mucolytic.

It is uniquely effective for instilling a positive mental outlook on life and for improving one’s ability to enjoy life to the fullest. ^LeStefanie balances and uplifts emotions. The Melissa in this blend adds a light, lemony scent.

Hyssop is used to strengthen the lungs and prevent the recurrence of colds and flu. It is particularly helpful in drying up the secretions and mucous of pneumonia, bronchitis, and asthma.

Hyssop’s effect on circulation and lymph drainage makes it useful for discharging toxins and mucous, treating dermatitis and gout, raising low blood pressure, preventing or minimizing scar tissue, and healing of infections and wounds.

Hyssop increases perspiration. Sweating is one of the body’s ways of removing toxins and impurities. It also lowers body temperature. When the circulation is poor and the lymph glands are clogged, perspiration is unable to occur. This is a serious and health-threatening situation.

Mullein Carrier Oil

Mullein has been used for centuries because of its outstanding medicinal properties. The herb Mullein grows in dry, barren places. Following the ancient law of signatures, this would indicate that Mullein is an herb for respiratory conditions, especially those where the lungs need “drying out.”It also has anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-spasmodic properties, thus increasing its value in respiratory ailments, and is certainly recommended for use as a carrier oil with these conditions.

Mullein Oil is one of the ingredients in EO made by Butterfly Express ^LLC for use with earaches and infections. It is often added to herbal poultices to provide emollient and healing properties and to offset the astringency of some anti-infectious herbs. The infused oil can be used in much the same way.

Mullein Oil, as a carrier oil, should be used when applying oils to the chest for infections, coughs, and congestion. It can be used in the ears, alone or as part of the EO recipe, to relieve the pain of ear infections and fight the bacteria involved. It can also be of benefit as a carrier oil when working with inflammation and pain. Mullein is gentle enough to be used on babies for diaper rash and for cracked nipples with nursing mothers.
