Well, it is officially November! Is anyone else trying to be more on top of vitamin intake, cleanliness, and all the extra Thieves?

 Immune support has been on everyone's radar more this year than ever. Now that we are in the middle of fall and approaching winter, we are definitely on high alert. As busy as life is, we want to make sure we are keeping our routine simple, yet highly effective. Consistent use of high quality products and oils is key. 

I say this every year, and I am going to say it again. Just because you are using essential oils, doesn't mean you will not get sick. Essential oils and high quality supplements are tools that can be incorporated into your immune system support. My family has notice that if we do get sick,  we don't get hit has hard, symptoms don't linger, and in the cases that we do require medication, our oils come in handy to help our overt symptoms while the medication does it's work! 

We want a strong immune system to help prevent frequent illness and to make sure our body is strong and ready to fight when we do encounter a bug. Today, I am going to break some simple routines down for you. You will see a routine for the adults, the kiddos, and the babes! You can most definitely do more than what I list, but these are tools you may want to take a peek at if you are looking at simple routines. 

A healthy gut does a lot for someone's immune system. This time of year, our gut needs all the help it can get as we overindulge and probably consume more sugar that we usually do. Life 9 Probiotic is the PERFECT addition to your bedtime routine. It contains 17 billion live cultures for 9 beneficial bacteria strains. Replenishing the good bacteria after a long day is critical in your daily immune boosting routine. 

I could tell you to beef up on Vitamin C, and D...and so on...OR I can tell you to save your money on the individual supplements and support your body with a FANTASTIC full-spectrum multi-vitamin such as MASTER FORMULA. Initially, I turned my head at the price BUT after adding up the individual bottles of vitamins I was purchasing, this was saving me money and I was get so much more! Master formula contains your prebiotics, 100 % of your daily Vitamin C and D3. Vitamin K, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Thiamin from B1, Niacin ( B3), Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Biotin, Panthothenic Acid (B5), Iron, Magnesium, Zinc (100%) , Manganese, Copper, Selenium, Molybdenum, Kelp....I could go ON and ON but it would be easier for you to check out the ingredients and daily values, here. 

Master Formula with Life 9 is gold! I forgot to mention that Master Formula contains prebiotics. Those are a perfect match for Life 9. That routine can get delivered to your doorstep at the same time every month for free now! Use rewards points to cash in for some oils :) 

Inner Defense is pretty much your immunity roller in a capsule! If you aren't one to roll oils on your feet and down your spine, this is for you! You can take this as a daily immune boosting supplement OR take as needed when you are feeling under the weather. If you are not well, you can take up to five in a day but please make sure you are taking your probiotic at night to replenish all that good bacteria. We always go into the season with a bottle or two of Inner Defense on hand.

So, what do you think? Is that basic enough for ya? I also recommend Ningxia Red for an extra shot of antioxidants. We all could use an extra dose of that these days. 

Below, you will find a simple routine you can incorporate into your routine for the kiddos! Some of my favorite recipes are included. 

Ningxia Red and MightyPro Pre+Probiotic are key in my kid's routine. I like to make sure they are getting all the vitamins and minerals they could be missing in their diet and maintain a healthy gut with MightyPro at night. 

While we use caution with babies and essential oils, when the appropriate dilution ratios and safety is taken into consideration, they can gradually be worked into a routine for our little ones. 

Keeping the routines basic and simple, make it easier on yourself to be consistent in supporting your family's immunity. I hope you found the above information helpful! 

When you get a new oil and you fall in love, you start to think of all the ways you can incorporate this oil into your routine! Take a look at this blend....

Gentle Baby isn't a new oil to me but it is has been absent from my shelves for some time now. When I saw it being offered as a 15 mL, I jumped at the chance to order it. Well, this gem arrived yesterday and only happy thoughts came to mind when I cracked open the bottle. I thought about all of the ways I used this oil with my boys when they were itty bitty. I also remembered how much I loved this oil for myself when I learned to layer it with some of my favorite oils.
