Summer is drawing to a close ... The holidays are over and it's back to school and to work! But all those sunny days might have dampened our focus.

- Peppermint – "Migraine...? What migraine?"
With its potent analgesic action, Peppermint essential oil is your natural weapon to slain the migraine dragon ... It works quickly, too: just apply 2 to 4 drops on your temples and gently massage in with your fingertips. Repeat every 30 minutes until the pain subsides.
- Feeling Tired...? Think "Black Spruce"

Use this invigorating oil with a diffuser (ideal for chronic fatigue) or breathe in the vapours of a few drops on a clean handkerchief.
