Mini Fall Sickness Guide for Moms
Fall means cozy nights, pumpkin everything, and crisp mornings. But it also means the return of colds, coughs, and those dreaded school germs. Instead of panicking when sickness strikes, let’s set up your fall wellness toolkit so you’re prepared for anything.
Build Your Fall Wellness Cabinet
Here are the basics every mama should have on hand before sickness hits:
Thieves® Essential Oil – immune support powerhouse.
Oregano Oil – for extra-strong seasonal support (always dilute).
Raven™ or RC™ – helps ease breathing when stuffy.
NingXia Red® – antioxidant-rich daily wellness drink.
Vitamin C + D – proven immune support.
Elderberry Syrup – natural daily boost.
Bone Broth – nourishing and soothing on sick days.
💡 Tip: Keep a small basket or caddy stocked with oils, supplements, and a thermometer so you’re not scrambling when fevers hit.

Mama’s Quick Tips
Wash backpacks & lunchboxes weekly — they carry more germs than the bathroom!
Cut sugar during sickness — sugar suppresses immune response.
Hydration tip: Add a pinch of sea salt + a splash of orange juice to water for a natural electrolyte drink.
Diffuser overnight: Thieves in the kids’ room while they sleep is a game changer.
