Sinuses, allergies, lack of sleep, dehydration, the holidays, family visits, school functions, writing content for 4 blogs, re-developing a website, the seemingly endless to-do lists….basically ANYthing I do can, and DOES, result in some type of headache…often.
No matter what the cause, having any kind of headache instantly throws a major curveball in my day (or several days sometimes), and I am NOT a fan of taking any type of medication with regularity for plenty of reasons (side effects, building a tolerance, chemicals, establishing a dependence…just to name a few).
My determination to find a healthy, natural remedy for these headaches (aside from reducing stress) led me to trying a range of essential oils. I had been using essential oils for years for various “home remedy” types of things; however, I was totally oblivious to the idea of creating recipes by using a combination of essential oils.
I, very wisely, purchased a Premium Starter Kit from Young Living Essential Oils and immediately set out to find the perfect headache recipe for me…well, it didn’t take long at all (thankfully!).
Headache Eraser Roll-on
What you’ll need: 1 empty (and clean) roll-on container, Peppermint essential oil, Frankincense essential oil, Lavender essential oil and a carrier oil, which is needed for dilution…I used sweet almond oil.
How to make it: Combine 20 drops of Peppermint, 20 drops of Frankincense, and 10 drops of Lavender essential oils directly into the roll-on bottle, then fill the remainder of the bottle with the carrier oil you choose. Shake well to blend.
How to use it: Roll directly onto the location(s) of the headache.
This eraser has not failed me yet! I have used it 10+ times over the past few months and my headaches have consistently subsided within just a few moments…and totally GONE within minutes.

2. Select Sign up as: “Wholesale Member” (this will get you 24% off forever & always!)
3. It should be done for you, but just to be safe, make sure that my member number is both the Sponsor ID & Enroller ID: 2187729
4. Fill out your name, billing & shipping address, SSN, and contact info. (Your SSN will never be used unless you make over $600/year selling Young Living products, in which case they’d send you a 1099 as required by law at the end of the year. And never fear! If you don’t decide to pursue the business end of YL, it will never ever be used.)
