Essential Oils and First Aid / Emergency Kit
Helping people in first aid circumstances is serious business and one should know their capabilities as they get involved. Herbal and essential oils have been effectively treating people in these situations since there have been injuries to treat. One should wholeheartedly hone their skills, know how and when to ask for help and to take time to study with knowledgeable persons.
First aid situations have a habit of foisting themselves upon us at unpredictable moments and so you may find yourself involved, no matter what your skill level may be. So seek opportunities to learn this eons-old craft whenever possible. The service of being a calm, sensible, knowledgeable person in often chaotic and painful situations is a gift to offer to our communities.
Every home should have three fully stocked first aid kits: one each in the kitchen, bathroom, and car. In the event of an emergency, having all the items you need close at hand can make a big difference.
When you begin to learn and understand the many uses that are available with therapeutic-grade essential oils, and how you can put together a chemical free first aid kit with these oils, you will be filled with delight.
You will feel so much more protected and confident in knowing that you are prepared to help when your first aid kit is needed.
Here is a basic list of Young Living essential oils and products we enjoy in our First Aid Kits
- Trauma Life blend (soothing to emotions after a traumatic experience)
- Peppermint (helpful for digestion, sore muscles, headache discomfort, alertness, fever, dizziness) (Note: not open wounds)
- Thieves essential oil blend (antibacterial properties for wound cleaning, airborne bacteria, stings, bites)
- Lavender (minor wounds, burns, cleansing properties, helps speed wound healing, calming, Poison Ivy/Oak, insomnia)
- Melrose blend (antimicrobial, antiseptic, nail / foot fungus, cuts, burns, rashes, bruises, inflammation)
- Lemon (antiseptic properties, purifying water) (do not use on skin exposed to sunlight, photosensitivity)
- PanAway blend (helpful for sore/achy muscles, headache discomforts, bug bites)
- R.C. blend (respiratory, staph / MRSA) (use with Raven for more powerful respiratory support)
- Geranium (w/compress to reduce bleeding, bruising, astringent, inflammation, sinus head discomfort, antispasmodic, skin conditions, circulation, uplifting mood)

All of the above essential oils can be used topically with a carrier oil (V-6), apply to area of discomfort, on soles of feet for general wellness, inhaled for emotional relief.
A good thing to include in your first aid kits is a list of all the benefits one can use the essential oils for. So print out your First Aid List and put it in all of your first aid kits so that you will be prepared with your natural remedies, for the unexpected.

I am a be prepared kind of gal. My kids laugh at my funny ways and that's ok. I have even given them first aid kits as gifts. They don't laugh when they get them, instead they give me a hug to show their appreciation.
Whether you give a first aid kit as a gift or not, it is a great idea to be sure to be prepared in your own home, in your car, and for the times you go traveling it is good to have a compact size first aid kit.
So, get prepared, check off of the list to be sure you are ready, because life if forever tripping us up, and it will be so much easier to get back up, with your handy first aid kits filled with natural remedies.
