Typical of most mint family members, rosemary is rich in antibacterial essential oils providing wonderful support for the immune system.  As a mom and preschool teacher I have seen plenty of kids come down with illness at the beginning of the school year.  So why not give little immune systems some gentle support as the school year starts?  Having a lovely action on the nervous system, rosemary simultaneously relaxes and refreshes an overwhelmed, tired mind as well as easing tension headaches.   When your kiddos come home tired and exhausted from school offering them a nice cup of rosemary tea, relaxing foot bath or full body bath with rosemary in the tub will help them let go of the stress of the day and clear away muddled tiredness from their heads.
