What is Tea Tree Oil?
Tea tree oil was one of my first oils. I use it everyday from toothpaste to house keeping. So what is this oil? Tea tree oil is from Australia and has powerful anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and disinfectant compounds which can be used for insect bites, blemishes, burns, skin ailments, infected wounds, bruises, lice, and dandruff.
How can you use it everyday?
Now on to the fun stuff the recipes.
Awakened Rabbit's Toothpaste
glass jar with lid (get here)
coconut oil (get here)
tea tree oil (get here)
peppermint oil (get here)
You can leave out the peppermint and clove oils if you wish. Other oils that could be good to substitute would be orange oil (get here), fennel oil (get here), rosemary oil (get here), wintergreen oil (get here), or Tangerine oil (get here).
Heat up coconut oil, I normally boil water and put the jar with coconut oil in it in the water. It doesn't take to long since the melting point is around 76 degrees. Once you have liquid coconut oil add about 5 to 10 drops of tea tree oil and whatever other oil you have chosen. Close lid and shake. Let it get solid again, this can be quickened by putting it in the freezer. To use you can get a butter knife and scrap some out to put on your tooth brush or just put right in your mouth. Do not swallow.
Fennel oils characteristic licorice-like scent. It is considered an astringent, tonic, stimulant, and contains estrogenic properties
Orange oil also clears the lymphatic system, improving immune function and is antibacterial.
Clove oil has analgesic properties (pain relieving), it also is strongly antimicrobial and antibacterial.
Coconut oil has a paste feel to it when it is solid making it great for homemade toothpaste. It also whitens teeth.
Rosemary oil helps with bronchitis, headache, tonsillitis, sinusitis, colds, flu, and swelling. A powerful antibacterial and antifungal.
Wintergreen oil is analgesic, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiseptic, antispasmodic.
Tangerine oil is antispasmodic, carminative, digestive, diuretic, sedative, stimulant (digestive and lymphatic), and tonic agent, antiseptic, antibacterial, antidepressant

Get a towel wet and warm up, I pop it in the microwave for a few seconds. Please keep an eye on it. Wrap head and hair in towel. Let sit for 20 minutes or so. Then hop in the shower, wash hair twice with non moisture shampoo. I normal use some cheap brand. If you have really oily hair only do the bottom half if it needs moisture, still wash twice. No extra conditioner.

dog collar
dog shampoo
Mix and match 5 drops of oil in shampoo. Wash dog twice. Then take the dog collar. This can be a stylish store bought collar or a bandanna or even a shoe lace. Pour 2-3 drops of one of the essential oils from the list above mix and match as you have or want. If you worry about harming your dog with such strong oils, you may dilute the oil by mixing it with 2-3 tablespoons of water. It will be more beneficial if you mix 3-4 oils together and then pour 2-3 drops of such an oil blend on your dog’s collar. Rub the oil drops into the collar. Repeat in a weeks time.
