One of my friends at Highbar is a chiropractor and he has been noticing my asthma attacks lately. Last week he suggested trying out some essential oils -specifically one by DoTerra called Breathe.

doTERRA Breathe Essential Oil Blend – Antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, expectorant, cell and tissue repair, asthma relief; using Breathe can give relief from colds, bronchitis, sore throats, sinusitis, coughs and respiratory congestion. Decongests sinus passages, combats lung infections and relieves allergy symptoms.

I am pretty open to trying more natural methods to address common maladies and discomforts, so I ordered it and started using it last night before I went to bed. I used a few drops and rubbed it on my chest. Immediately you can smell the eucalyptus – and I did feel as if it was helping me breathe easier. Sort of like using Vicks Vaporub all over your body when you are really congested. I will keep you posted on whether or not it is helping, so stay tuned!
