Rubbing essential oil on the bottoms of the feet for my kids

When I watched 《妻子的浪漫旅行2》，I noticed that one of the wives, who is also one of my favourite actress since young,  in the show is rubbing some kind of liquid on her soles every morning and before bed. I am curious to find out what is she doing or using.  

I asked around and even googled about it, finally I got the answer, it is essential oil that she is rubbing on her bottoms of feet every day.

Sometimes, things just happen at the right time. Soon after that, I was invited to attend the essential oil sharing session. Haha.

And, the fact that my favourite actress is using essential oil is definitely one of the reason why I grow fond of essential oils immediately.

I googled and found out that our feet soles has larger pore than any other part of the body, and the essential oil can penetrate through our skin into the body faster. 

I thought of improving my kids wellness through essential oils and this is the easiest way for me to use it on them.

I diluted lavender (3 drops) in carrier oil in an 8ml roller bottle to make this kid's friendly "sleep well magic potion", a name given just for fun. I get my kids to rub the oil on their feet soles every night before bedtime to calm them down and get good sleep at night. 

I also diluted peppermint (3 drops) in carrier oil in an 8ml roller bottle to create "wake up magic potion" for my kids. It is for refreshing and focus purpose.

The kids have been rubbing the oils every day and night since I make the 2 bottles for them. They will ask for it every night.

I changed my son's magic potion at night to eucalyptus radiata diluted in carrier oil, a gift from my auntie. I rub it on the lung and chest area shown on the foot reflexology chart, hoping to improve his asthma symptom. 

For my daughter, I rub the oil on the colon area, hoping that it will improve her digestion and put on some weight. 

Just a bit sharing of how I use the essential oil on my kids who are aged 8yo and 11yo this year. You may refer to dilution ratios for kids and babies for more inforamtion.
