Frankincense

Aint nobody have time for head tension, especially us moms.  When I first heard to do this I was not excited to try it out, but once I did it, I experienced the instant relief of pressure, and was hooked. Put a drop of frankincense on your thumb and massage into the roof of your mouth with pressure.  Massage for about 30 seconds, chase with some lemon oil. (or maybe you will like the taste) Regardless, you will love the results.
