From Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) to Peaceful, Focused Child

My beautiful daughter was diagnosed with ADD in March 2011. Finally we had an explanation for her challenges in school. The thoughts of being tied to synthetic medications the rest of her life didn’t sit well with her, or me. So, I began the search for alternative treatments. Today, with the support of her therapist, who prefers alternative treatments over synthetics, and a naturopathic physician, she is off all synthetic medications and manages her symptoms with doTERRA Essential Oils.

The Peaceful Child Blend works wonders!!! The oils in this blend are known to help with Hyperactivity, ADD/ADHD, Emotional trauma, Fear, Stress, Anxiety, Behavioral and Cognitive disorders and neurological disorders. They are calming, soothing and stabilizing to the central nervous system.

This blend creates a deep, languid calm; has sedative properties; frees the nerves from excessive tension which allows a person to spiritually center themselves. It nourishes and protects the brain and nervous system. It restores feelings of hope and mental strength and promotes a positive outlook on life. It eases the pain behind anger and quiets the mind chatter.

As an additional note - I use the blend for my own stress & anxiety and my daughter’s therapist personally uses the blend (and loves it) and diffuses it in her office while seeing clients and sees a notable difference in her ADD/ADHD clients.

Here is the Peaceful Child Blend recipe...

85 d Vetiver (1/3 bottle)
30 d Ylang Ylang
20 d Frankincense
15-17 d Clary Sage
