Our lives are filled with stress. Stress can lead to head aches. Wouldn't you love to have a natural, safe, effective way to relief an aching head. Well, if you have a few choice essential oils - you're in luck. My favorite remedy for a simple headache is to rub a few drops of peppermint on my temples, back of neck and then inhale! But occasionally these headaches are a bit more persistent. That's when I bring out the big guns. Peppermint, lavender, idaho balsam fir and basil are all awesome at relieving the throbbing head. Take a sniff and which ever one appeals to you - put a few drops on the back of your neck, behind your ears, on your temples and under your nose. Just take care you are not around the eyes as the vapors from the oils can be irritating.
After you've applied the oils, it also helps to put a damp cloth over your eyes and sit quietly for a few minutes. Ahh, relief.
Be sure you are drinking enough water too.
