Grief and sorrow come to all of us at sometime in our lives.  They are not times we care to experience or to wish upon others, but it is inevitable that we will experience awful times of sorrow and grief. To be able to get through these powerful feelings and emotions can be very difficult and even more difficult for others.

5 Ways to deal with grief or sorrow:

  1. Talk to family or friends. Reach out to them, by calling them. It can be difficult to pick up the phone, but it is important for you to be able to have someone to talk to.  If you don’t have someone, call a church or a hospital to find out about support groups.  Yes, it is easier to be alone, and that is OK, but not all of the time.  We do need someone to talk with, or to listen to.
  2. Read self help books or inspirational books that relate to what you are going through. Or listen to them on tape, if you are having a hard time focusing. Listening to the words can be a great help too.  Sometimes this can be a much easier way to take in the helpful words.  We may be able to comprehend better than when we read, because when we are in a deep place of grief it can be difficult to focus on words.
  3. Getting out in nature, going for walks, or even for drives to pretty places, can help us to reflect on the beauty around us and remind us of other blessings in our lives. Remember if you are able to go for walks to breath in the fresh air.  Fresh air is invigorating, intoxicating and down right good for our body and well being.
  4. Aromatherapy is natural way of achieving optimal emotional and physical health. The fragrance of an essential oil can directly affect everything from your emotional state to your lifespan. Thus, a therapeutic essential oil can affect our feelings and thoughts because smell is our most emotional sense. Scent stimulates nerves to fire in the emotional center of the brain, but it also stimulates the master gland to release hormones. Hormones affect the fight/flight response, as well as digestion and heart rate. In this way, essential oils can affect us in many ways all at once, just through their fragrance.  Aromatherapy is a very positive way that may help to heal from emotional pain.*
  5. Raindrop Technique utilizing emotional Young Living therapeutic-grade essential oils, could also be an excellent way to move to healing from grief and sorrow.  Raindrop Technique is a simple practice that can be learned and may be very beneficial for emotional healing and physical healing. (Read my article on Raindrop Technique for Mind, Body and Soul)*

Single Oils: Bergamot, Roman Chamomile, Clary Sage, Eucalyptus globulus, Juniper, Lavender.

Anger is a normal emotion that is familiar to most of us. It can be a very uncomfortable feeling and a powerful signal that something is wrong. The feeling of anger can consume you and that is why it is important that you know how to handle it and get it under control.

Some people use drugs and other chemicals to deal with anger. These drugs have unknown side effects, and they can occasionally become a negative impact on the mind.

Essential oils may help you overcome anger in your life, and give you a boost in attitude and a complete overhaul in how you view your life.  And essential oils are a natural alternative and healthier way of healing.

When we have an emotional situation come up, instead of being overwhelmed by it, we can diffuse essential oils, put them in our bath, wear them as a cologne or perfume and even use them as an air freshener.   Aromatherapy is completely natural and has been used for thousands of years and aromatherapy may enhance health and mood through the use of concentrated plant extracts.  The essential oil molecules will absorb into the bloodstream and from the nasal and buccal cavity to the limbic system. They will activate the amygdala (the memory center for fear and trauma), sedate and relax the sympathetic/parasympathetic system.

Because essential oils affect the amygdala and pineal gland in the brain, they can help the mind and body by releasing emotional traumas and other upsets.

Young Living Essential Oil Choices for Anger

Blends: Release, Valor, Sacred Mountain, Joy, Harmony, Hope, Forgiveness, Present Time, Trauma Life, Surrender, Christmas Spirit, White Angelica.

Single Oils: Bergamot, Cedarwood, Roman Chamomile, Frankincense, Lavender, Lemon, Marjoram, Myrrh, Orange, Rose, Sandalwood, Ylang Ylang.

Note: all citrus oils and bergamot can be photosensitizing, do not apply these oils on skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight for 24 hours.

Our pets stress can become quite aggravated at the drop of a hat, literally.  If you have skittish critters, it does not take much for them to be stressed and get scared, and their poor little hearts can start pumping like crazy. Some are more skittish than others.  Wouldn’t you like to be able to help them out, so that they are calmer?

Young Living has many different therapeutic-grade essential oils that are calming and they are safe to use with pets.  This is because Young Living essential oils are quality oils, they are not perfume grade.  When you use essential oils for your self and your pets, you want to be sure that you know that the essential oil you are using is a quality essential oil. This is extremely important, especially when you use them for therapeutic purposes on your pets that you love so much.

Read more on essential oil quality

Three oils that are particularly great calming oils are:

  1. Lavender is a great aid for relaxing.
  2. Peace and Calming blend helps calm tensions, promoting relaxation and a deep sense of peace.
  3. RutaVala blend promotes relaxation of the body and mind. It helps ease tension and relieve stress.

It’s quite simple to use Young Living essential oils on our pets.  You know that first off, you have your quality oil with Young Living.   Young Living essential oils are very concentrated and powerful, so it is important to understand that less is better!

The easiest way to use Young Living essential oils with your pets is by diffusing them.  By diffusing the essential oil your pets, and you, are getting the aromatherapy by breathing in the essential oil that is being diffused.  The diffuser literally puts the essential oil into the air in micro-fine particles that stay suspended in the air for several hours.

Start by diffusing your Young Living essential oils for 15-30 minutes, one to four times a day for normal situations. Place the nebulizer diffuser higher in the room (a shelf, bar, or fireplace mantle are good choices) so that the essential oil mist has a longer distance to fall through the air.

Read more on diffusing

Essential oils can also be applied topically.  Remember less is better.  The amount of essential oil that is used would be determined by the size of your pet.

  • Small to medium sized pets, like cats or small/medium dogs:
  1. Take 1 drop of any of the above mentioned essential oils.
  2. Place it in the palm of your hand and rub your hands together until the essential oil is dry.
  3. Rub your pets paws and give them a nice loving petting.
  • Larger sized dogs
  1. Take 2 drop of any of the above mentioned essential oils.
  2. Place it in the palm of your hand and rub your hands together until the essential oil is dry.
  3. Rub your pets paws and give them a nice loving petting.

With either one of these therapies, diffusing or topical application you should see your pets becoming calmer.  They may begin to love it when you bring out the essential oils.  I know my pets love them and they have their favorites, just like I do.

We love our pets, and they love us, so why not help them to feel less stress by having Young Living essential oils on hand for them.  You can get your products delivered right to your door.  Young living has other pet products that are all natural, and if you are interested in learning more, please contact me.

Most deodorants, including “natural” and “crystal” deodorants can be VERY unsafe. Many deodorants today are loaded with toxic chemicals ranging from aluminum to antifreeze.  As these chemicals leach through the skin into the blood and tissues, this can create a toxic build-up in the body that can lead to cancer, liver damage,  neurological disease and much more.

Sources of Aluminum Exposure

Over the Counter:  Deodorants, antiperspirants, baby wipes, skin creams, suntan lotions, toothpaste, buffered aspiring.

Medical: Vaccinations, intervenous solutions, would and antacid irrigation, ulcer treatment, blood oxygenization, bone or joint replacement and burn treatments.

Foods: Aluminum cans, foils, containers, baking powder, cake mixes, frozen dough, pancake mixes self-rising flour, grains, processed cheese.

Studies of Aluminum Toxicity

State University at Gent, Belgium

“Epidemiological studies from Norway and England suggest a relation between the frequency of Alzheimer’s disease and the concentration of aluminum in the drinking water.  Estimates, made in the study, show that the role of aluminum from tooth pastes may be even more important than that from the drinking water.  For that reason we determined in samples of tooth pastes taken from the BENELUX market which brands contained aluminum.  This appeared to be the case for about 22% of the brands which according to the manufactures cover about 60% of the market.”

-RM Verbeeck, Laboratory for Analytical Chemistry State University, Gent Belgium (Acta Stomatol Belg 1990 Jun)

University of Virginia

“Attention was first drawn to the potential role of aluminum as a toxic metal over 50 years ago.. the accumulation of aluminum is associated with the development of toxic phenomena; dialysis encephalopathy osteomalacic dialysis osteodystrophy, and an anemia.  Aluminum has also been implicated as a toxic agent in the etiology of Alzheimer’s disease, Guamiam amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and parkinsonism-e=dementia.”

-CD Hewitt et al., University of Virginia Health Sciences Center, Charlottesville

All evidence to date points to aluminum as a poison that serves no beneficial role in your body and should be avoided.

Alzheimer’s disease is not the only reason to ditch your aluminum-containing antiperspirant and deodorant, as this heavy metal has also been linked to cancer.

What is the best solution to help to keep our selves safe from harmful aluminum and parabens that are in many deodorants and antiperspirants?  You could forgo using them at all and instead apply a therapeutic-grade essential oil. Young Living has over 150 different quality therapeutic-grade essential oils to choose from.  PLEASE keep in mind the importance of using quality therapeutic-grade essential oils.  (Read more on quality of essential oils.)

Or you could purchase the first deodorant stick in the world to use an aluminum-free, petrochemical-free essential oil formula made from edible ingredients and formulated exclusively from therapeutic-grade essential oils and all-natural ingredients. Young Living essential oils provides a pleasant and safe alternative to commercial deodorants and are free of propylene glycol and toxic aluminum salts.*

Chemicals are not what you think about when you are applying lotion, or putting on make up, or for men shaving cream, but that is most likely what you are putting on your body when you are using these products. These chemicals are some of the free radicals our bodies are fighting to overcome everyday, all day long.

A recent study in the United Kingdom found that the average woman wears over 500 chemicals on her body every day. Similar to the United States, women douse themselves daily with shampoo, conditioner, perfume, moisturizer, lotion, and a wide variety of cosmetics that altogether contain hundreds of chemicals. Most are unaware of the number of chemicals they are putting on. Do you know how many you wear?

If you are curious, take a moment to figure it out. Look at the labels of all of the products you use and count how many ingredients are listed. Then, add them all together.

  1. Shampoo and conditioner ________________________
  2. Lotions and moisturizers  ________________________
  3. Cosmetics ___________________________________
  4. Hair styling products ___________________________
  5. Deodorant __________________________________
  6. Perfume or cologne ____________________________
  7. Toothpaste___________________________________
  8. Soaps ______________________________________
  9. Other ______________________________________

Total ___________________________________________

Are you surprised? Most people are.

Keep in mind that not all of the chemicals in personal care products are bad, but there are a significant amount of commonly used ingredients that are especially risky to your health.

Avoid products that contain: “parabens” (Methyl-, ethyl-, propyl- and butyl-parabens) , coal tar colors (FD&C Blue 1, Green 3, Yellow 5 & 6; D&C Red 33), Diethanolamine (cocamide DEA, TEA and MEA are related ingredients that can be contaminated with DEA), Nonoxynol or nonylphenol ethoxylate, phthalates (can be listed as DEHP, DHP, or DBP5 or hidden in “fragrance”) , DMDM hydantoin, triclosan, sodium lauryl and laureth sulfates, toluene, formaldehyde, PEGs, and anything with “glycol” or “methyl.”

It’s hard to eliminate everything on this list, especially if you can’t afford all the certified organic products. Young Living Essential Oils has all the natural products you need to replace the chemical laden products.  Young Living Essential Oils give protection and the essences of nature, without the use of chemicals.

Most people are not able to immediately replace what may be in their cupboards.  The best way to begin replacing your chemical induced products is by purchasing a certain amount every month and then replenishing your supply as needed.

What you need to do is decide if it is your time to make this very important change in your life.  Many people are sure to stay away from certain ingredients in food products, well why not help your body, mind and spirit out by doing the same with your personal care products.  Its a choice, are you ready to begin to make the switch to help to achieve optimal health?

Young Living Aroma Siez™ essential oil blend is a relaxing blend that is excellent for massaging away life’s little discomforts. This essential oil blend is well suited for use after exercise or at the end of a trying day, it also provides soothing comfort for the head, neck, and tired feet. The anti-inflammatory and muscle-relaxing essential oils in this blend can promote circulation and treat spasmed, tight, inflamed, aching muscles resulting from injury, fatigue, or stress. It also can relieve headaches.

Aroma Siez is a blend of these Young Living therapeutic-grade essential oils:

  • Basil (Ocimum basilicum) combats muscle spasms and inflammation. It is relaxing to both striated and smooth muscles (involuntary muscles such as those found in the heart and digestive system).
  • Marjoram (Origanum majorana) helps regenerate smooth muscle tissue, and assists in relieving spasms, sprains, bruises, migraine headaches and calming the nerves. It is antibacterial and antiseptic.
  • Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) relieves muscle spasms/sprains/pains, headaches, inflammation, anxiety, burns, and skin conditions (psoriasis) preventing scarring, and stretch marks. It is hypotensive, anti-infectious, anticoagulant.
  • Peppermint (Mentha piperita) has powerful pain-blocking, anti-inflammatory, and anti-spasmodic properties. A 1994 double-blind, placebo controlled, randomized cross-over study at the University of Kiel in Germany found that peppermint oil had a significant analgesic effect (Gobel et al., 1994).
  • Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens) is antibacterial, antimicrobial, antiseptic, and improves circulation and lymphatic drainage. It reduces edema and water retention. It strengthens the vascular system.

Ways to Use Aroma Siez

  • Head Discomfort: Dilute 1 drop of Aroma Siez with 1 drop V-6 or olive oil. Apply to temples, and back of the neck as needed.
  • Muscle Aches: Dilute 4-8 drops with one teaspoon V-6 massage oil. Massage on sore muscles, ligaments or areas of poor circulation. More on massage and bodywork.
  • Aromatherapy: Inhale directly from the bottle. More on the effects of olfactory.
  • Diffuse: Aroma Siez can also be used in your Young Living diffuser, for best results diffuse 10-15 minutes every 1-2 hours (please do not use heat, ring or candle diffusers as this destroys the therapeutic benefit of your essential oil).
  • Bath or Foot Bath: For either, in 1/2 cup Epsom Salts or Sea Salt add 4-6 drops of Aroma Siez, mix together well and add to bath water. Soak for 15-20 minutes.

Additional Useage Tips

  • Use with Raindrop Technique
  • Aroma Siez and PanAway together topically can be helpful for achy joints
  • Aroma Siez and M-Grain combined can help with some migraines

Aroma Siez Testimonials

Discomfort in Deep Muscles

“Every fall when the weather is hot, then cold, then hot, then cold here in Florida, I get chest pains that my doctor has characterized as Charlie horses in the deep muscles of my chest. Unlike a leg or foot muscle, you can’t massage these or walk to stretch them, so there was nothing to do but “endure” these annoying episodes, which sometimes lasted for two hours. One night I woke up with this chest pain, and as I lay there thinking about what I could do for it, I remembered the instant results I had had with Aroma Siez on other people’s leg cramps. So I got up and rubbed a few drops of Aroma Siez on my chest, and the pain went away in about 10 minutes!” ~ Jan E.

Aroma Siez After Strenous Activity

“We use Aroma Siez after our Tai Chi classes or a long day of gardening. Smells spicy. Works wonderfully.” ~ Cynthe B.

Aroma Siez and Muscle Spasm

“After moving a heavy bureau, I had muscle cramps along the left side of my body. The cramps were so severe, I almost went for a series of trigger point injections. Instead, I had a friend apply a drop each of helichrysum essential oil and Aroma Siez oil blend on the most tender point of the muscle and press hard, wiggling the finger just a little. In each trigger point, this process released the spasm. I repeated this procedure on a friend who had an uncomfortable charlie horse on his leg, and the discomfort stopped immediately. He was truly surprised because he had muscle spasms in his leg for years, and nothing had ever worked before.” ~ Sharon T.

Aroma Siez for Tight Muscles

“I have also recently had some experiences with cramping of the toes and feet (VERY uncomfortable), and I used Aroma Siez, since it is for seized up muscles.It worked beautifully, within a couple of minutes.” ~ Joy

Aroma Siez and Foot Cramps

“Another manifestation of my current body imbalance was waking up in the middle of the night with foot cramps…big OUCH! Thank goodness I had my trusty Aroma Siez (for those seized-up muscles) handy. I just applied a couple of drops neat on top of the feet, and on the bottom, and again, the cramping stopped as if by magic. I am so grateful that I now have built my “stash” of oils to have them all. I remember well when I was just beginning in the business, and my upline (who just came into the business a week or so before me) and I used to discuss which oils we would order first, in our desire to build an inventory, and how we felt it would be quite a while before we could order the kits.

It’s interesting to look back on that time, and I’m so grateful I stayed with it. Over time, Young Living has brought many blessings…not only the wonderful effective healing, but the abundance to now order whatever I choose without concern. The choice to join Young Living certainly turned out to be one of my better decisions in this lifetime!” ~ Anonymous

Aroma Siez for Charlie Horse

“From time to time I get charlie horses and when I apply the Aroma Siez on the knot and massage it in the muscle will relax and the knot goes away. ( Another thing you need to remember is when you get a lot of charlie horses you are not drinking enough water). Also I use the Aroma Siez when I do massage to relieve the tight muscles in the back.” ~  Nancy S.

What Doug did for disk problem

“My experience with essential oils started like most people, with a physical condition and pain. I began having severe neck pain which progressed down my left shoulder and ultimately to my left elbow. At first, I just lived with it, but then I started to experience weakness in my left tricep, and that’s when I decided to contact a doctor and see what was wrong.

An MRI showed the disk between the C-6 and C-7 vertebrae to be bulging. The swelling in the joint was putting pressure on the nerve which was causing the pain and the weakness in my arm. In fact, the tricep muscle was actually beginning to atrophy.

My doctor gave me 3 options, first, physical therapy sessions. I did that with little effect. Second, an epidural in my neck, which is an injection of anti-inflammatory drugs directly into the disk designed to reduce the swelling and help the disk move back in place. The third option was surgery, where they would fuse the two vertebrae together.

I was in my early 30’s and very active in sports and skiing and did not want options 2 or 3! That’s when a friend told me about the oils and how they had helped him with a similar problem with his back.  Long story short, I tried them, and it was nothing short of a miracle!  Within minutes my neck and shoulder felt better, and by the next morning, I had no more pain! ZERO!

My neck and arm have been fine since, nearly 10 years now, and I regularly use the oils as simple maintenance and for many other reasons that are too numerous to list here. Many people have asked me which oils were used on my back and neck, so here is a list of the oils and how they were applied by Julie Herbert – whose husband, Gordon, first introduced me to these amazing medicines.

Start with Valor on the feet. Then layer oils of Basil, Marjoram, Aroma Siez, Wintergreen, PanAway, Cypress, LEMONGRASS, Geranium, and Peppermint on the VitaFlex points on the feet, one after another. (There is a foot chart in the book, Essential Oils Desk Reference, which shows where points related to the spine, shoulders and neck are located on the feet called VitaFlex points).

Then apply the same oils on the neck and shoulder or pain-affected area using Peppermint last, followed by Ortho Ease. Peppermint is used last because it is the amplifier of the other oils followed by Ortho Ease. Today, for someone with the same condition, you would also use Idaho Balsam Fir, and then start taking the supplements BLM (for bone, muscle, and ligaments) and Sulfurzyme.

BLM and Sulfurzyme were not available when I had my neck problem. I am a true believer in the power of these oils to heal the body, mind, and spirit. I hope you will experience the same kind of results as you use these wonderful products. I can’t put into words how grateful I am to have discovered essential oils.” ~ Doug L.

Rose (Rosa damascena) has a beautiful, strong floral and sweet fragrance that is intoxicating and highly romantic and intoxicating and believed to be aphrodisiac. Rose essential oil helps bring balance and harmony with stimulating and uplifting properties that create a sense of well-being and self-confidence. Used for skin care for thousands of years, it is perfect for dry or aging skin.

The benefit of using a pure and true Rose essential oil is that it will provide aroma therapy benefits; whereas a lower quality or fragrance aromatherapy oil will provide nothing more than possibly a placebo affect. Therefore, it is always most advantageous to use the best available, I use and highly recommend Young Living Essential Oils.

Rose oil has the most diverse healing applications of any essential oil used in aromatherapy today. The oil is considered a supreme healer of both the body and soul. The energy of rose essential oil is said to have powerful effects on both the mind [olfactory] and heart [chakras], providing a state of overall well-being.

Each of the chakras has specific glands and organs it affects. It is believed that we can enhance the vitality of a chakra through exposing it to colors, sounds, minerals and essential oils.

The heart chakra is the center of compassion, love, group consciousness, and spiritually; associated with “oneness” with “all that is.”

A healthy heart chakra can allow us to experience love and compassion more fully, and provide a deep sense of peace and centeredness. Healing or stimulating the heart chakra can help to ease heart and chest conditions, such as; emotional issues (give and receive love), stress, anger and depression.

The alternative health applications of Rose essential oil are many. Exceptionally beneficial to the female reproductive organs as it is said to act as a tonic for the whole system. Young Living Rose essential oil can be diluted in an aromatherapy V-6 massage oil and massaged into the pelvic region for this effect; it is said to be both a regulating and purifying to both the body and mind.

The ‘Precious’ Rose Oil: how to buy it without breaking the bank

It takes approximately 60,000 Rosa damascena roses to produce just 1 oz. of rose essential oil. Or,  5000 pounds of roses to make 1 pound of true Rose Oil. Given these figures, it is no surprise that rose oil is the most precious essential oil.

Young Living Rose essential oil is so potent that you can extend it by mixing your own carrier oil (such as V-6) with it; in a separate jar or bottle, combine 1-4 drops of Rose essential oil with 1 tablespoon carrier oil.

The wholesale price of a 5ml bottle of Young Living Rose Oil (which has approximately 84 drops of Rose essential oil), will cost about $2.16 per drop. Therefore, it is highly recommended to become a wholesale customer so that you can save 24% off retail prices on all of your purchases. This is done by selecting the “Distributor” membership type when you place your order, the distributor and wholesale member types are combined for ease, you never have to have a business or sell anything if you simply wish to remain a wholesale customer, learn more about being a wholesale customer.
