Aromatic Bath

Do you know………….. For our own tender-loving-care, we can create a soothing, invigorating, yet relaxing spa in the comfort of our own home without patronizing spas and spending money. Amidst our unavoidable busy life style, balancing family-friend-work obligations, it’s important to create some time to de-stress, unwind, indulge and meditate, allowing our bodies to rejuvenate.

“There’s no place like a bath to stretch your soul and listen to your own inner voice.” -Seneca(Roman philosopher, statesman, dramatist)

This could be accomplished with an Aromatic Relaxing Bath. This bath not only cleans the body, but relaxes both body and mind and imparts a peaceful calming feel that is necessary for staying healthy. It also gives a chance to be alone and can indulge in your favourite book, if so desire. Since centuries, Essential oils have been traditionally used for medicinal and spiritual health purposes. Extracted from plants, essential oils bring the healing properties of mother nature right to our tub. Adding essential oils to a bath, based on their therapeutic properties, can help:

Relieve Stress and combat Depression
Boost Immunity and getting Energized
Decrease Inflammation
Aid in Digestion
Healthy Skin
Respiratory stimulation

Aromatherapy for Vertigo

Aromatherapy for Vertigo
A Lovely Monday Morning to you all!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know………A sudden sensation of spinning (either of oneself or of external objects, surroundings) is one of the major signs of vertigo. I could personally vouch for this and certainly it is not a pleasant experience. Causes of vertigo:

                         Essential Oils

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV): This is the most common cause of vertigo. Symptoms of BPPV are triggered by rapid change in head movement such as; tipping head up or down, or by lying down, or turning over, or sitting up in bed.

Infection: A viral infection of the vestibular nerve, called Vestibular Neuritis or Labyrinthitis can cause intense, constant vertigo.

Meniere’s disease: When excessive fluid builds up in the inner ear.

Migraine

Some of the common signs and symptoms of Vertigo are:

Dizziness

Lightheadedness

Unsteadiness (Loss of balance)

Blurred vision

Nausea and vomiting

Ringing in the ear (tinnitus)

Headache

Treatment: Medications are available that can relieve some symptoms. These drugs include antihistamines and anti-emetics to reduce motion sickness and nausea. There are a few exercises involve holding a certain position that can ease the discomfort of vertigo. These exercises are similar to the ones used in vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT). However, it has been found that certain specific essential oils can provide relief from the symptoms of vertigo:

Peppermint

Ginger

Lemon balm

Lavender

Thyme

Basil

Clary Sage

Frankincense

Rose

These oils are used commonly for the treatment of headaches, motion sickness, nausea and/or vertigo. They help stimulate blood and oxygen flow to the brain, opens up the breathing passage helping to decrease lightheadedness.

How to use essential oils for common vertigo:

To apply, gently massage the forehead and back of neck with two to three drops of the oil of your choice or inhale or oil can be diffused into the air from an aromatherapy diffuser..

If you experience dizziness along with a new extreme headache, high fever, loss of vision, leg or arm weakness, fainting, chest pain or difficulty speaking please seek medical attention immediately.

Essential Oils for Acid Reflux

Essential Oils for Acid Reflux
A Lovely Monday Morning to you all!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know…….Acid Reflux is a common condition that features a burning pain in the lower chest area, known as heartburn also known as acid indigestion or pyrosis. It happens when stomach acid flows back up into the food pipe. At the bottom of the esophagus, there is a sphincter (a valve) which is a ring of muscle called the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). It acts like doorway to allow food in the stomach and closes to keep the stomach contents out of the esophagus. If the LES doesn’t close all the way or if it opens too often, stomach acid move up into esophagus. This can cause symptoms such as a burning chest discomfort called heartburn. Despite the name, heartburn has nothing to do w

ith the heart. If acid reflux symptoms happen more than twice a week, it is known as gastro esophageal reflux disease (GERD). GERD is most common in Western countries, affecting an estimated 20-30 percent of the population. The American College of Gastroenterology says that over 60 million. Americans experience heartburn at least once a month, and at least 15 million as often as daily.

Acid Reflux

If have frequent or severe symptoms of heartburn, doctor may order tests to confirm a diagnosis and check for other problems. For people who experience heartburn or indigestion infrequently due to occasional food and drink, OTC (over the counter) treatments to reduce the acidity of the stomach contents are available. Antacids, such as Alka-Seltzer, Maalox, Mylanta, Rolaids, etc. can neutralize the stomach, but overuse of them may cause diarrhea or constipation, or decreased nutrient absorption, or overgrowth of bad bacteria. Antacids provide rapid but short-term relief by reducing the acidity of the stomach contents. They may not work for everyone and any need for regular use should be discussed with your medical provider. In many cases, lifestyle changes combined with over-the-counter medications are all we need to control the symptoms of acid reflux disease. Study shows that it’s best to use antacids that contain both magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide which may help counteract these gastrointestinal side effects.

                           Acid Reflux Discomfort

There’s always a time and place for conventional medicine for acute situations and emergencies, but these days it’s often used as a first resort for everyday issues, not the last resort. Essential oil is a safe, natural effective remedy to reduce acid reflux, bloating, and pain. Essential oils are natural, concentrated, volatile, liquid extract from different parts of plants and have been used for therapeutic and healing purposes for centuries. These oils are:

Peppermint Essential Oil: reduce muscle spasms, aches, and bloating in IBS symptoms.

Ginger Essential Oil: improves the movement/motility of the bowel, can help to reduce bloating, nausea, gas, digestion.

Fennel Essential Oil: seed oil has been shown to reduce intestinal spasms and increase motility of the small intestine.

Lemon Essential Oil:  helps in the temporary excretion of digestive acids, which alleviates heartburn. It is great for cleansing the stomach and detoxifying.

Wild Orange Essential Oil: is a great oil for acid reflux,  can also help with detoxifying, constipation, and bloating.

Forgiveness the Life Mantra

Forgiveness the Life Mantra
A Lovely Monday Morning to you all!
PLEASE STAY SAFE FROM CORONA VIRUS (COVID-19). FOLLOW GOOD HAND HYGIENE and MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING

Do you know…….Today, I heard on Brahma Kumaris ((World Spiritual Organization), a very important message, “If you are still holding onto anger, mistrust, or the sadness from the past, you will project those feelings onto anyone new who comes in your life. Resentment does not protect you from anything, but it does prevent you from connecting deeply with people who try to love you in the future. Heal your heart not just for you, but for everyone who comes in your future path.”

Forgiveness is a controversial subject of discussion, difficult to agree upon, and hard to achieve. I understand it is not easy to forgive the person who betrayed us. We hold on to that anger of being deceived and fooled intentionally, but it always made us feel worse. Studies revealed, forgiveness has clear, positive effects on human well-being. It is an important aspect of maintaining social order, fostering social relationships, and promoting physical health. Most importantly, forgiveness is liberating for human spirit. According to Chinese medicine, negative emotions are believed to cause a disruption in the body’s energy system, often connected to certain meridians and organs in the body. Most world religions include teachings on forgiveness, which provide guidance for the practice of forgiveness. The concept of forgiveness might differ, but it stil

l calls for love and pure heart. I liked this simple Hawaiian forgiveness ritual of Ho’oponopono, based on using few simple sentences to help you forgive, forget the past, heal and bless yourself and others.  Four tenets are disclosed for creating peace with oneself and others: “I am sorry, Please forgive me, I love you, and Thank you.”

“Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.” We could choose to harbor resentment, be a victim and remain energetically stuck in that entanglement, be stressed out from deep seated emotions, or we could choose to forgive and let it go. So, it is good practice to start working

on forgiveness gradually to release the stored emotions from the key meridians and organs in the body. Before we could forgive this other person, we need to first forgive ourselves. The stress response in our body cannot differentiate between current physical stresses or emotional and thought driven stressors. A body in stress cannot heal. As a Clinical Aromatherapist, as a Reiki and Energy Healer, to really help people heal, we need to address the problem at its root and help them release their deeply embedded unpleasant emotions, experiences, and negative thought patterns.

Researchers have found that Essential oils are a great way to reconnect back with nature and to achieve feelings of peace and forgiveness. When we inhale a distinct aroma, the scent travels through the olfactory system (controls our sense of smell) to the limbic system of our brain that produces a distinct response to the aroma to enhance our well-being and manage emotions. Higher frequency essential oil (human brain vibrates i.e. has frequency of 72-90 MHz and healthy body vibrates at 62-72 MHz – refer to my blog, Vibrational Healing with Aromatherapy 06012020, on my web site: aromawellness.net) over 90 MHz, helps us release things quicker by raising our spiritual awareness and allow the soul to forgive, forget and release negative energies. Based on individual requirement, can use following category essential oils to reap the benefit:

Calming Essential oils: Floral oils, are typically composed of monoterpene alcohols that have calming properties; Rose, Jasmine, Geranium
Grounding Essential Oils: Tree, herb, and grass oils, primarily include sesquiterpenes, esters, and oxides that have grounding, soothing emotions and feelings of renewal properties; Frankincense, Sandalwood
Uplifting & Energizing Essential Oils: Citrus oils, typically possess limonene, beta-pinene, and monoterpenes and Peppermint oil is energizing because high concentration of ketones; Bergamot, Lemon
Warming Essential Oils: Typically Spice oils, because of their phenol content; Coriander, Cinnamon
Use our Serenity Blend Spray for achieving a state of relaxation and refreshing feel. Can be misted lightly on body and neck or use as a room freshener.
