Application Suggestions (See Essential Oil Usage for more information and a Dilution Chart.)
Topical: Dilute with a carrier oil, unscented lotion or unscented cream and apply on area of concern or as desired. Consider using a roll-on applicator for ease of application of prediluted oil. Maximum topical use level is 10%.

Children: Not suitable for children under 2 due to potential skin irritation issues. For children over 2, please follow the Dilution Chart on the Babies and Children page.

Phototoxic Caution: Angelica Root and Bitter Orange are phototoxic and should not be applied to skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight unless adequately diluted. Maximum use topically on skin exposed to UV light is 17.5%.

Topical Spray: Balance makes a wonderful spray. To make a spray, simply decide on the appropriate dilution ratio, add the number of drops to the spray bottle, and then fill it with the carrier oil of your choice. For example, for 3% Balance in a 1oz bottle, put 30 drops of Balance blend in the bottle, then fill it with carrier oil.

Room/Linen Spray
Everclear is the best solvent for the essential oil. If you use Vodka, it will separate and will need to be shaken with each use.
1oz spray bottle
120 drops of essential oil of choice
Everclear to the 'shoulder' of the bottle

Inhalation: Diffuse or use a personal Nasal Inhaler

1. I had a lot of trouble sleeping until I tried Balance. This blend is a "must have" for me and works wonderfully! - Kerri

2. I received my oils last week. I love them!!! I mixed Balance and Serenity last night. I used that along with Dr. Hull’s Sleep and actually slept the entire night. I haven't slept an entire night through in forever! Thank you so much!!! - Jacqueline

3. Allergy sufferers in our house LOVE Balance for going to bed...it smells beautiful--think about a lush rose garden--AND it helps clear up the sinuses for sleep. (Allergies are really affecting everyone after even just a couple of hours in the beautiful weather and terrible pollen (in FL)--especially bad if I open the windows to freshen up the house! - Christy

4. I didn't like the smell of Balance when I first got it. I am more drawn to the fruity scents rather than the floral scents. I still don't love the smell, but I have learned that my body wants and needs this oil everyday, or sometimes every other day, to help balance me out and calm me down. Much, much stress in this season of life. It is a treasured blessing! Thank you! - Jenn

5. Balance is the go-to Allergy EO at our house. - Christy

6. I have used Balance for something you don't have it specifically labeled for. I kind of discovered it accidentally, myself. :-) But I experimented and discovered that it was the thing making a difference in my suppressed hormones. I didn't have any blood work done, so I can't be too specific, but I have had seriously messed up and depleted hormones for quite a bit of my life. For several years I had no period at all and a number of related symptoms. I had made a lot of improvement but still had irregular periods, and I rather suspected that I had both low estrogen and low progesterone. I used Vitex in herb form, natural progesterone cream, ashwaghanda and various other things at different times in the past. I tried Balance to help with sleep issues and discovered that when I used it, my periods came on time, but when I didn't, they were late again. Then I finally had to stop using it topically because my heart would beat harder, and I even had some palpitations. At first this happened only at certain times of the month, and then it started happening every time I put it on. Due to this cardiac involvement, I suspect it raises the estrogen levels, which was a good thing for me! - Savannah

7. After reaching the maximum dosage of a prescription medicine for Essential Tremors (Parkinson-like tremors), my mom's tremors were still limiting her movement and her quality of life. Her tremors were so advanced that they were occurring in every part of her body, upper, lower and her voice as well. At the suggestion of a friend, she tried Balance, Vitality and Peaceful, all topically and diffused, in an attempt to control the Parkinson-like tremors. After only a few days, she was encouraged. Now, after two weeks of use, she can walk with a cane rather than her walker--most of the time. There are even times when she is strong enough to walk on her own. She takes daily 5-15 minute walks around the neighborhood with my dad. Each day she goes a bit longer and they come home beaming. They are as cute as can be--my dad is so happy to wrap his arm around his bride of 50+ years as they stroll along. They have even shared a slow fox trot together. Her hand is steadier and she has resumed crocheting and writing. Just today, she hand wrote a letter to a friend. It's been a few years since she could write a letter. She has enjoyed reading again. Her head is still enough that she can see the words on the page without feeling sea sick. Mom uses Vitality in a diffuser in the mornings and late afternoon. It runs for 10 minutes out of every 20 minutes. She uses Peaceful topically. Several times a day, she places it on her sternum, behind her neck and, at bedtime, on the soles of her feet. She also carries a ladies' cotton handkerchief with a few drops of the oil on the corner to inhale. At the same times that she applies Peaceful, she places Balance on the mastoid bone behind her right ear. We tried diffusing Peaceful but found it had a greater effect for her when applied topically. Mom takes two medications: Primidone and Neurotin. She continues to take them while we use the essential oils. I hope someone else's family member receives the same relief my mom has enjoyed. I'm so grateful for the encouragement of our friend who set us on this path. My dad and mom are over the moon. Praise God for this ministry and for His provision. - Pattie

8. For a general sense of well-being and/or giving yourself a supportive and caring massage, you can choose from Balance Moisturizing Spray (already diluted to 3%) or the original Balance blend, diluted to 10% in a spray bottle (which is how I use it) with Jojoba oil. I put this on the soles of my feet before going to bed. I haven't tried it, but the 3% spray is supposed to make you feel really good after taking a shower. - Sara

Safety
Angelica Root and Bitter Orange are phototoxic and should not be applied to skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight unless adequately diluted at 17.5%.

Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat—like the membranes of your eyes and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Flushing with water will only send the essential oil back to the eye's membranes. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eyes or skin. We’ve not known this to cause permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.

*Jasmine Grandiflorum is an absolute from India - Premium quality from the freshest flowers. Jasmine is actually an "essence" not an essential oil.

*Absolutes are solvent extracted products. They are produced by a multi-step process which involves first extracting the flower (or other biomass) with a non-polar solvent such as hexane. After the hexane is evaporated, a waxy product is obtained called the concrete. The concrete is then extracted using a polar solvent such as ethanol. The polarity of ethanol allows extraction of the volatile aromatics from the concrete while leaving behind the non-polar plant waxes which don't dissolve well in ethanol. Finally, the ethanol is evaporated to leave behind the absolute, which will typically have 1-5% ethanol remaining in it and sometimes a trace of hexane, depending on the method used.
