[Everything doTERRA] Re: Mental Health Struggles of a Teenage Brother

I have had very similar issues with my son, and it is indeed difficult
to get him to treat with oils. He doesn't like to put them on his
feet, so I have been mixing many of these oils you've discussed in
pills, and he will take them that way. He also seems to be much more
positive and easy to live with when he takes the LLW regularly, but I
have to definitely oversee that! The question I am posting concerns
mixing them. You say it's not best to mix in the rollerball, so I'm
assuming I shouldn't be mixing them in the caps either? I have been
mixing everything - balance, elevation, frank, citrus bliss, serenity,
lemongrass, wild orange, marjoram, everything I have read that helps
for mental health issues. Am I wasting my oils?! I just doubt that he
will take 3 or 4 different ones on top of the LLW!
