Focus on Avian

Essential oils can be a huge benefit to our animals – including birds! Whether you need acute support for a specific need, daily maintenance for overall health, or want to prevent the bumps in the road, there are so many ways oils can help!

OILS & BIRDS AT A GLANCE

Start by placing a drop of oil on your hands and allowing your pet to be around the oil.

Remember animals have heightened smell, so a little goes a long way.

Dilute for small animals

Water based spray or adding a toothpick swirl of oil to water can be useful (keep fresh water available as well)

Birds are a unique situation when it comes to oils as they are covered in feathers. Coating a bird's feathers in essential oil can be harmful to the bird and potentially cause the bird to molt. Because of the feathers, birds generally have thinner skin than other animals and will be more sensitive to oils.

The best way to safely introduce and apply oils to birds is by misting, spraying, or diffusing oils around them. YOu can still apply oils topically, but diffusing or spraying is a wonderful way to determine your bird's tolerance and acceptance of oils before applying them.

FEATHER SPRAY RECIPE

This spray is beneficial for bacterial, viral, and functional conditions as well as cancer prevention and immune support.

20 drops each Lavender, Lemon, Orange

Distilled water

4 oz glass spray bottle

Shake well and mist the bird directly twice a day.

DIFFUSING FOR BIRDS

Water-based diffusers are ideal for birds. In general, start with 3 drops of oil added to the water of the diffuser. Monitor the bird(s) closely for the first 5-10 minutes of diffusing and gradually increase the length of time and frequency. Often, you can diffuse on a continual basis, bringing wonderful health benefits to your pet.

ANIMAL SCENTS THE THREE-STEP SYSTEM FOR SKINCARE:

Animal Scents PuriClean Oil Blend: This is the first step in Young Living's three-part system to support pet recovery from minor scrapes and scratches. This prediluted blend refreshes and cleanses your pet's skin and prepares it for healing by moisturizing as well. PuriClean combines the skin-improvement properties of Patchouli, Mountain Savory, and other essential oils so that you can help your pet feel its best.

Animal Scents Infect-Away Oil Blend: This is step two of Young Living's three-part system to support your pet's skin healing. This prediluted blend includes Ocotea, Patchouli, Myrrh and other cleansing oils that help guard against harmful contaminants while supporting your pet's irritated coat or skin. Carefully apply according to the size and species of the animal. Additional dilution is recommended for smaller species. You can also put 8−10 drops in a 1-ounce spray bottle with distilled water for a quick skin-cleansing spritz. Best when used as part of a three-part system: PuriClean, followed by Infect Away, then Mendwell oil blend.

Animal Scents MendWell Oil Blend: This is step three of helping your pet heal and recover from minor scrapes and scratches. This prediluted blend supports your pet's natural healing process by soothing and moisturizing dry, sensitive, and distressed skin. Plus the aroma of Lavender, Frankincense, Geranium, and more creates an uplifting environment and promotes feelings of health and wellness for your pet.

QUICK TIPS FOR APPLYING OILS

Try the ‘Petting Method'. Simply apply an oil to your hands, rub it in completely, and gently “pet” your animal.

Always start with 1 drop of diluted essential oil, and apply more often versus using more drops.

In general, avoid the eye area, unless this area is one of need. According to Dr. Melissa Shelton, DVM, in this case you can use a very diluted ‘eye spritzer' (ex: up to 4 drops of Lavender in 120mL water) to mist around the eyes.

POULTRY CARE

In today's society, many people have a backyard flock, and these amazing creatures can benefit so much from natural practices with essential oils and oil-infused products!

Use Animal Scents Ointment for cuts and scrapes as needed

Add 1 drop of Oregano and a splash of Apple Cider Vinegar to a large (5 gallon) water trough

Because of their anatomy, chickens breathe in higher concentrations of oxygen and whatever else is in the air, so diluting oils for them is key! One great way to keep your coop clean and let your chickens get the benefits of oils is to use this

Natural Coop Cleaner Recipe:

16 oz glass spray bottle

1 capful Thieves Household Cleaner

25 drops Lemon essential oil

Fill halfway with white vinegar, then fill with water.

BIRDS & SUPPLEMENTS

Our animals need the nutritional support of good quality supplements, just like we do! And the same way that we start supplementing to maintain good health before a need arises, we want to do this for our animal friends.

Enter NingXia Red, Mineral Essence, and SulfurZyme. These three really wonderful supplements form a baseline for your pets to help keep them healthy and active.

Simply dilute the supplements for your small animals like birds.

Adding a round of Life 9 after antibiotics, oral use of antimicrobial oils, severe diarrhea, or an infection is a wonderful way to support a healthy microbiome for your pets!

MultiGreens is a wonderful supplement to include for immune support, viral infections, and neurologic support (especially in the presence of conditions such as feline leukemia).

NingXia Red is amazing for SO many things! Add it to water to dilute it for birds.

For birds & exotic animals: ¼ to ½ capsule of Allerzyme daily; approximately ⅛ of each Essentialzymes-4 capsule; split the dose between several meals

ESSENTIAL OILS

When you have a cough or cold or feel one coming on, you just want to be comfortable – especially if you still have to work, travel, or take care of your children or loved ones! (click on the individual oil pictures to learn more about the oil)

Thieves Essential Oil Blend:

This blend is our go-to for all things immune system related! It's the blend infused into the chest rub and cough drops we just talked about – and for good reason! We love to apply and diffuse this blend, add Thieves Vitality to a mug of echinacea tea, or add it to epsom salts for an immune supporting detox bath!

Frankincense Essential Oil:

Frankincense is an immune and respiratory powerhouse! This historical oil has been used for centuries for health. Apply it with Thieves, Lemon, R.C. or Purification to the chest and back, add a few drops to the Thieves Chest Rub when you apply, add Frankincense to epsom salts for a detox bath, and diffuse this oil when you're feeling down. Get it in, on and around you as much as possible!

Lemon Essential Oil:

Lemon is a wonderful oil for soothing cough and creating comfort in times of congestion. Diffuse it, apply it with Frankincense and Thieves Chest Rub, add a few drops of Lemon Vitality to echinacea tea, and add Lemon to detox baths. Lemon is high in limonene, a constituent highly regarded for its immune system support.

R.C. Essential Oil Blend:

Standing for Respiratory Comfort, R.C. essential oil blend is a gentle eucalyptus blend that we love for soothing and comforting the respiratory system. Diffuse, apply, and add this oil to detox baths as much as possible. This is a great choice for little ones too!

Purification Essential Oil Blends:

This purifying blend is another favorite for immune and respiratory needs. Containing Tea Tree, Lemongrass, Myrtle and other purifying oils, it makes a great addition to your comfort routine during times of cough or cold. Diffuse, apply, and add to bath salts.

Raindrop Technique Collection: This curated set of essential oils is a powerful tool for promoting health, wellness and vitality – both proactively and for acute needs since the oils included can be incredible tools for healing! This collection features nine essential oils with immune and respiratory support properties. We love them for making rollers and adding to detox baths!

Thieves chest rub & cough

THIEVES CHEST RUB

A must-have for every medicine cabinet, Thieves Chest Rub is a 100% plant-based alternative for over-the-counter cough and congestion relief. This natural chest rub soothes sniffles, coughs, and congestion for the whole family with a powerful blend of essential oils and natural, plant-based ingredients.Plus the easy-to-use bottle doesn't even require you to get your hands messy!! The formula is free of petroleum, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, synthetic perfumes or dyes, artificial colors, or preservatives and still packs an incredible punch when it comes to cough and cold! Pure ingredients and all the power of Thieves kicking that chest congestion to the curb? We will take some of that!

Sadly, conventional chest rubs are filled with synthetic additives and diluents, and even the ‘natural' options are less than ideal. Many options use petroleum as a base. Petroleum (petrolatum) is often not fully refined in the US, which means it can be contaminated with toxic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Many ‘natural' chest rubs also contain impure essential oils or other lower-grade components that don't meet the same standards as the ingredients found in Young Living products. The active ingredient in the most popular over the counter chest rub is actually a synthetic version of Ravintsara essential oil! And we are always going to choose the original over a synthetic copy, especially when it comes to our health and our family's health!

THIEVES COUGH DROPS

Get natural, quick, and safe cough, congestion, and sore throat relief Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops! These are a staple in our cough and cold toolbox. They are easy to keep at home or take on the go, made with naturally derived ingredients, taste great, and work wonders!

Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops are minty, spicy, and sweet without processed sugar, dyes, artificial flavors, or preservatives found in conventional cough drops. Infused with Cinnamon Bark, Peppermint, and Lemon essential oils, these menthol-based drops make soothing coughs and colds simple and tasty.

THIEVES HARD LOZENGES

Infused with Young Living's signature Thieves essential oil blend of Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, and Lemon essential oils, these lozenges are one of the things we reach for to keep our immune systems firing on a daily basis! The Thieves Hard Lozenges are a sugar-free dietary supplement to add to your daily wellness regimen with more of a cinnamon taste than a menthol one.We use these daily when we need a lozenge, when we travel to bolster our immune systems, and sometimes in place of the Thieves Cough Drops when we are out or if someone doesn't want the strong menthol taste of the drops (but it's that menthol that helps open the airways and soothe the throat!).

A Natural Segue: When Herbs and the Balance & Burn System Work Side by Side

What if appetite control starts in the brain rather than the plate? New research reveals how BDNF-driven neural circuits influence hunger, chewing, and metabolic signaling—offering a fresh perspective on weight support. This companion article explores how turmeric, lion’s mane, ginseng, and green tea work together in a clean stacking strategy that supports neural readiness first, then metabolic follow-through. Learn how timing matters, why these herbs prepare the brain to listen, and how this approach later aligns beautifully with structured systems like Balance & Burn for sustainable, nervous-system-friendly progress.
