We’ve discussed essential oils and the benefits of their different aromas, but now that stuffy, running noses are more frequent as the colder months approach…here are some tips and tricks for helping to make your little ones a little more comfortable as they drift off to sleep…
Essential #1 – A Humidifier. 
If you don’t already have one, make the investment in one now. The moisture that fills their nursery will help make breathing so much easier. Especially if they have to breathe out of their mouths all night!
Essential # 2 – Eucalyptus Essential Oil. Eucalyptus oil can be compared to menthol and it works on the receptors in the nasal mucosa. This is what often helps to alleviate nasal congestion and can give some relief through the night.
Essential #3 – Lavender Essential Oil. The calming and soothing affects will help to ease your little one into a sweet slumber. Lavender can ease anxieties and if your little one is having difficulty breathing, alternating some lavender with the eucalyptus will help to calm them.
Essential #4 – Lullaby Music. Distracting their discomfort with some music will help to soothe and relax them so they can drift off to sleep faster. The best part…there are so many different kinds of music to choose from!
EmeraldBaby.com wishes you and your little ones…Sweet Dreams!
