1.  Mix  5 drops of pure peppermint oil with 15 drops of carrier oil (such as jojoba, or olive). Place mixture in a roller bottle or airtight glass container. Do not use peppermint oil alone.  It will burn your skin. At the onset of a hot flash, rub a small amount of mixture on the inside of your wrist or elbow. You may also rub the mixture on the front or side of your neck.  If you suffer with night sweats, rub a small amount of mixture on the bottom of both of your feet at bed time.

2.  At the onset of a hot flash, simply take a deep sniff of the peppermint/oil mixture mentioned above. Hold for 20 seconds before exhaling  Repeat once or twice.

3.  Mix 15-20 drops of clary sage oil with 10 drops of any of the above mentioned carrier oils. Follow the remaining steps in #1.

4.  Breathe Deep and relax!! At the onset of a hot flash, take a deep breath.  Hold breath for about 20 seconds, then push all of the air out of your chest and relax your body. Repeat 4-5 times.  The hot flash will melt away!
