Essential oils can support you by helping you to focus on what you are doing, certain essential oils like Black Pepper strengthens your mind, Lemon assists with clarity and of course when you inhale the smell of an aroma that you like it will instantly uplift your emotions and put a smile on your face, either energising you or relaxing you. 

Often when you have a lot fo things going on in your life the simplest of things can become difficult to do. You can use essential oils to support yourself in achieving your daily tasks with ease and grace. 

Inhalations are one of the best ways to use essential oils for an immediate effect and can be carried with you at all times. Having a bath gives us time to relax and or re-energise. Set yourself time out even if it is fifteen minutes a day to simply be.

Use your essential oils to assist with grounding and connecting, do some slow gentle deep breathing. Having a foot bath is yet another simple way of giving yourself time out.

Room sprays have to be one of my favourite ways of using essential oils. You can carry them with you and spray when ever you feel you need a boost or top up.

A few essential oils to help you on your way ~

Black Pepper is a very strengthening oil to your mind and body

Lemon is refreshing, calming and is proven to assist with clarity of mind

Rosemary and Basil are very stimulating both strengthen your mind and well known for assisting with focus

Cypress is great for energising and clarity, it also assists with clearing out clutter, detoxing your mind

Aromatherapy, Grief and Healing the Heart

The healing journey is a very personal process for each of us.

When do we grieve?

When someone close to us dies or someone close gets sick, leaves home, moves far away and so forth.

There are 4 areas in which the grief process shows itself

1. Feelings- sadness, anxiety, misery, heartache, blame, hurt, frantic, rage, fear, guilt regret, anger.
2. Thoughts- going over and over the past, going through the what if’s and if only.
3. Behaviour- yelling for no apparent reason, bursting into tears, talking to self as if the person is there, wear the lost persons clothes or jewellery
4. Physical symptoms- loss of appetite, lethargy, restlessness, sleeping too much, breathlessness, waking through the night or very early, hair loss.

How can we help!

One of the most important things we can do for people who are grieving is to give them a safe place in which to experience and express their pain. It very is important for the person grieving to be able to express their feelings and talk about their loss or traumatic experience. This helps one to feel supported and know that they are not alone and that they are being heard. Receiving comfort is so important for the grieving person.

Comfort is to soothe in times of distress or sorrow.

Take a moment to think about what essential oils could support yourself or another.

What essential oils bring a smile to your face, give you a feeling of emotional uplift and remind you of happy times and so on.

Remember essential oils are sourced from an abundant array of flowers, leaves, bark, woods, herbs, spices, fruit and more. They offer their own insights, transitions and healing.  As we make our way through different journeys in life these wonderful beauties from nature subtly integrate any changes taking place.

Self care is never a selfish act. It is simply good stewardship of the only gift I have. The gift I was put on Earth to offer to others. Anytime we can listen to true self, and give it the care it requires. We do not only for ourselves, but also for the many others whose lives we touch.

~Parker Palmer

Here are some suggestions of ways in which you can soothe your emotions, being mindful of the moment.

• Sit and be quite breathing slowly and deeply
• Have Aromatique Baths while playing some music that you enjoy listening to.
• Use your Aromatherapy burners, room or body sprays, remember to choose oils that remind you of happy times and uplift your emotions, giving you courage and support
• Take time out for you and your friends
• Exercise daily, take walks on the beach or woodlands, hug a tree
• Write yourself some positive affirmations

The ordinary acts we practice every day at home are of more importance to the soul than their simplicity might suggest.

~Thomas Moore
