At basically the same time that I was introduced to dōTERRA essential oils, I was having a lot of trouble with dryness I’d never before experienced in my nasal passages and throat…not good when trying to sing Salome! Fortunately, I had a couple of friends who were praising (and more importantly going out to pick up) some amazing stuff: Ponaris Nasal Emollient. They had previously used this wonderful stuff when they were singing in very arid, high places in parts of Colorado and said that it pretty much saved them. So, always willing to try most things once, I had them get me a bottle as well, and I’ve never looked back! I have since used it to help me end sneezing fits, congestion and general nasal irritation. I’ve used it on planes as well as on 3 continents! I loved the box that it came in – an image of an astronaut floating…indicating its helpfulness in space as well as on earth...(?) The greatest part of my continued use of Ponaris has been two-fold. First of all, I am much less likely to pop a Zyrtec or the like, because my allergy symptoms are most likely managed by some of the oil. This is wonderful from an economic standpoint (1oz bottles of Ponaris cost even less than a bottle of generic Zyrtec) but also from the perspective that when I started using it, I was still breastfeeding, and never felt great taking medication that I wasn’t keen on sharing with my little one. The ingredients on the bottle are listed like this: “Oils of Pine, Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Cajeput in a Cottonseed oil base.” There is a small component of iodine, for those concerned with their iodine intake, however. At any rate, Ponaris has been really helpful for me over the past year, and if this information is helpful to any other singer/parent/allergy sufferer, I’ve done my duty for the day! I now buy my supply on amazon.com, but I'm sure there are many other possibilities.
