Wild Orange essential oil and coconut oil provided by doTERRA
One of a mom from my younger daughter's class asked me today "Don't you have trouble putting kids to sleep after they are back to school? Don't they have trouble getting up, too?!"
I answered, Well..my girls still have excitement from summer break lingering, too and would want to stay up late. So I give them an incentive. I say to them, "Once you are ready to go to bed, I will you a massage. " And they immediately get ready for bed haha. My girls love this aroma Wild Orange. Usually citrus oils are uplifting but my girls love this even before going to bed.
I give them hand massage, neck and feet, in the Thai yoga massage form I learned from a workshop I recently attended. Oh they love it. such a simple way to give them a sense of being touched, and cared for. They fall asleep while I am still giving them a massage haha..
The power of your hands is amazing!!
