Oils to help with general teen issues

[Cendrine]

My son has been hit by the hormonal teen roller coaster. In our conversation about how to deal with this new season in his life he was asking me if there were any oils that could help teens like himself be more balanced during this time of development. He knows I have been using oils myself for hormonal issues. I told him I would look to see if I can find out anything.
We live a healthy lifestyle without the sugar and food colors and other additives that could aggravate hormonal issues more.
If it were your child, what oils might you suggest he tried. Has anyone found any studies or anecdotal stories regarding this issue?

Hi Cendrine, 

My heart and prayers go to you both!  : )

My personal opinion is that the trust and communication he has with you as a parent is the best thing he as going for him at this point. 

The National Association for Holistic Aromatherapy has this article to offer: 

Aromatherapy for Puberty and Adolescence

You may want to consider diluting Sandalwood (or our Sandalwood Substitute blend) at 2-3% and applying as desired.

Also, you could diffuse Cedarwood Atlas or Nutmeg, or dilute either at 3% and apply as desired (some have mentioned that applying to the heart and chest area is effective).

Master is another one to consider for male hormonal balance. 

I hope this helps.

Blessings, Linda

Thank you so much for your kid words, Linda, and for the recommendations. I already made roller bottles for sandalwood and cedarwood atlas, and we'll see how it goes.

Blessings,
