A to Z Uses for Essential Oils 
I really like the essential oils I’ve tried so far, but I have to admit that there are so many I haven’t tried! I’m so stuck on certain ones I love, such as peppermint and lavender, that I haven’t got around to trying so many of them! Peppermint is one of my favorites because it relieves headaches, boosts energy and destroys bacteria (in my homemade toothpaste). Lavender is my other personal love because of its relaxing properties and ability to help with those sleepless nights. But there are so many others that I want to try!
It seems like there is one for any ailment or condition you might have. You can also use them for cleaning, there is one for practically everything! To learn more every day uses for the oils, be sure to sign up for my free 14-Day Essential Oil E-Course.
So I thought I would organize a little ABC “go to” list for newbies, and people like me, who want a quick reference to grab when you want to find the right essential oil. I tried to include some of the most common conditions and some essential oil lingo that is a must have if you want to be able to talk essential oils!
Note: For the conditions listed only one or two oils are suggested; however, there are many oils or blends that will work great too! You can get the full list for how to treat any condition with essential oils in the free 400 page pocket reference book that you get when you order the Young Living Oils here.
A is for Anxiety –Apply Valor to bottom of feet or neck. Also use *breathe in method (see below).
B is for Brain – Use Peppermint to boost memory and concentration. *Breathe in (see below)
C is for Colds – Use Thieves oil. Apply 1-3 drops neat or diluted 50:50 on throat (upper), chest and /or back. Some people apply it to the bottom of their feet, massage a few drops (neat which means undiluted). Note: Be cautious using thieves oil on infants as it can be hot and/or irritate the baby’s skin.
D is for Diffuser – Diffusers help get the essential oil into the air in small particles (molecules) so you can inhale the essential oils effectively for the body to use. There are many types from attractive plug in ones that send a fine mist into the air or homemade reed diffusers.
E is for Ears – If you have tinnitus (ringing in the ears) try Helichrysumt oil and massage 1 drop diluted around the outside of the ear
F is for Fatigue – I tried this one and it helped! Put 2-4 drops, diluted 50:50, of Peppermint on the thyroid area of the neck or temples and behind ears 2 to 3 times daily.
G is for Gout – Use Juniper or Frankincense topically. Massage 1-3 drops (diluted) on joint.

O is for Oral Care – Peppermint and Spearmint, mix with water and use as mouthwash or brush teeth with, spit out. Helps bad breath and it is a great antiseptic.
