Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: peaceful child question

I haven't had this effect. The Peaceful child 'sharpens my focus' and
kind of calms me down and I'm not as easily distracted. If I use
peppermint it wakes me up, if I use lavender it relaxes me.
I will comment that smell of vetiver can agitate some people with ADD
but it works great on the bottom of their feet. Its one of what I
consider 'rare' oils that even if you don't like the smell it works well
on the bottom of feet even though in theory it probably should be
inhaled. I really caution folks, if you or the child doesn't like the
smell do not put it any where near where they can smell it. Sometimes
you can get extreme agitation.
Should also add this blend doesn't work for everyone and sometimes its
very surprising who it does work for.
