I have come across two fabulous essential oil recipes that can protect your child from insects without the dangerous chemical cocktails and their nasty side effects.

No insects on me.
Because of their refined and high frequency energetic body, New Frequency Children (including Indigo Children, Crystal Children, Rainbow Children, Star Children, and Children of the Sun etc) need to be carefully protected from the chemical toxicity that is found in our everyday lives and environments. They cannot handle the toxicity levels that children before them could. The more toxicity you can avoid your child being exposed to, the easier it is for them to maintain their high frequency and overall wellbeing.
I recommend that all parents and caregivers get very conscious about what they are putting on their child’s skin, into their child’s mouth and home environment. This article is focusing on the topic of insect repellents. I have come across two fabulous essential oil recipes that can protect your child from insects without the dangerous chemical cocktails and their nasty side effects (*see the information on DEET below to truly grasp how dangerous the chemicals in insect repellents are!). I also recommend that you find therapeutic grade essential oils to make up these mixtures – I particularly like the oils from Young Living which I use.
As a general insect repellent – blend the following mix:
• 6 drops of peppermint oil
• 6 drops of melaleuca oil
• 9 drops of citronella
• Dilute with water 20:80 and apply to exposed skin as needed.
• Avoid eyes.
For a mosquito repellent – blend the following mix:
• 6 drops lemon
• 6 drops peppermint
• 6 drops eucalyptus radiata
• 6 drops lemongrass
• Dilute with water 20:80 and apply to exposed skin as needed.
• Avoid eyes.
For treating insect bites:
If you do get bitten a blend of lavender and peppermint oils will reduce insect-bite-induced itching and infection.
*A note about the chemicals found in insect repellants:
DEET sprays can melt plastic bags and fishing lines. Doesn’t that make you wonder what it can do to your sensitive child?
Commercial insect sprays contain the chemical permethrin which is a neurotoxin. Duke University Medical Center pharmacologist Mohamed Abou-Donia spent 30 years researching the effects of pesticides. He discovered that prolonged exposure to DEET can impair cell function in parts of your brain. When rats had their skin treated with the average human dosage of DEET, they performed far worse than control rats on physical tests requiring muscle control, strength, and coordination. This is consistent with reports of symptoms after the military used DEET in the Persian Gulf War. Exposure causes neurons to die in several parts of your brain including areas that control muscle movement, memory, concentration, and learning. Heavy exposure to DEET and other insecticides can cause eye and skin irritation, memory loss, headaches, weakness, fatigue, muscle/joint pain, nausea, tremors, and shortness of breath. Symptoms can appear months or even years after use.
Have a great time outdoors, knowing that you and your child are protected from insects naturally. Now you can embrace all the wonderful healing frequencies of nature without polluting your child’s small sensitive body with dangerous toxic chemical mixes!
