Scents of Summer: Staying Cool with Cool Scents

Freshen your Water and Hydrate your Body with Citrus Oils!

Keeping hydrated is very important when out in the heat. Essential oils contain many minerals including electrolytes that keep our body hydrated! Citrus oils in particular contain electrolytes which facilitate the uptake of minerals and help the cells of the body uptake more Vitamin C. Plus, they taste great in our water!

Lemon and grapefruit are the best or I like a blend called Citrus Fresh. Place it in your water bottle or even your dog’s water bowl! My horse loves Citrus Fresh – what horse doesn’t like the taste of citrus and spearmint all wrapped up in one oil! Yum! She licks it right off my hand and I put a few drops in her water bucket as well.

Kids love tangerine and orange oils. Place three to five drops in some Vanilla Soy or Rice Milk and some ice, place it in the blender and drink up! Yum - brings me back to summer time as a kid when I used to enjoy Creamsicles! Yeah! I also like to use Ninxgia Red, Young Living’s Wolfberry Drink! Great healthy cool drinks all summer long!

Walk Like an Egyptian with Myrrh Essential Oil?

The Egyptians used myrrh in an animal fat mixture as a natural sunscreen! Yes, these “cone heads” actually did have a purpose! Other oils that have some sunscreen properties are lavender and helichrysum.

Remember to be careful of oils that are photosensitive and that will increase your chance of burning, citrus oils in particular! And if you get sunburn, one of the best home remedies for sunburn if lavender essential oil!

Cool Peppermint Misting Spray? Not just for Ants Anymore!

We all know that peppermint essential oil is great for deterring ants in the house, but it also makes a great refreshing Skin Spritz! Place a few drops in some mineral water with some lavender and mist to hydrate and cool the skin.

Or, if you are like me, place peppermint or spearmint essential oil, directly on the back of your neck! It seems to take your body temperature down about 25 degrees! My horse and I both love this! Cooling, refreshing and enhances your concentration- perfect! Oh, and peppermint oil also helps our digestive system which is the topic of the Spiritual Aromas of Summer!

As with all “mint” oils be careful not to get it into your eyes. And if you do, use vegetable oil not water to ease the burn! And those with sensitive skin may want to dilute the peppermint first if placing it directly on the skin; or place a layer of vegetable oil first then the peppermint or spearmint.

Spiritual Aroma Message for Summer: Open up your Heart to the Love of Summer

In the summer we are asked to look at the emotional patterning and physical diseases that are related to these organs as they will be most affected during this time. This means that physical and emotional issues surrounding these organs may come up so they can be unblocked or released.

What are the Emotions Related to the Heart, Small Intestine and Tongue?

Here is a short summary of some of the emotions and essential oils that are associated with these organs. I would also evaluate the action and system that is indirectly affected; this includes breathing, circulation and the lymphatic system.

Remember, when emotions come up it is best to evaluate the root cause as to why they are being expressed; and use oils to help release them rather than repressing or stuffing them which cause the blockages or di-sease in our body to begin with!

• Heart (circulation and breathing): Grief, loneliness, not enough, intimacy, love, gratitude and forgiveness.

• Small Intestine (digesting and assimilation): Abandonment, lack of compassion and hope.

• Tongue: Lashing out.

Work with essential oils that help to nourish and balance the energy of the heart (heart chakra); support digestion; promote circulation; and release emotions often stored in the heart. Here are some of my top picks.

• Rose Essential Oil – Anti-hemorrhaging and anti-infectious properties. Used for poor circulation, asthma, chronic bronchitis and more. This has the highest vibration of any essential oil which opens the energy of the heart; soothes grief and emotional pain.

• Ylang Ylang Essential Oil – Anti-depressant and anti spasmodic properties. Used for anxiety, hypertension, frigidity, palpitations and tachycardia. Emotionally, it releases feeling drained and possessiveness.

• Cypress Essential Oil – Anti-infectious, lymphatic decongestant and vasoconstrictor properties. This oil gets things moving! Emotionally and physically! Use for circulatory issues, spasms, and lymphatic cleansing. Emotionally, it releases disrespect and stagnation.

• Peppermint Essential Oil – Anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic and analgesic (pain relieving). Used for imbalances of the respiratory and digestive system making it the perfect summer oil! Emotionally it releases self imposed restrictions and rigidity.

If you want to learn more about emotions, belief systems and essential oils, register for Breaking through Emotional Barriers with Essential Oils to be held July 19th. We will learn about how emotions govern every action and choice in our life!

News from the Field

You may have noticed that Ravensara is now being called Ravintsara on the Young Living Website! I was curious about this change, so I contacted product support to get some clarification; and wow, did I get some interesting information!

As it turns out, botanists have now identified that most of the Madagascar oil is Ravintsara (Cinnamomum camphora), not Ravensara aromaticum. They are similar trees but Ravintsara is not an original species. It was introduced from Asia in the 19th century and adopted very efficiently to the new climate. So much so that it is a very ecologically sustainable species for sourcing, unlike Ravensara which is becoming an endangered species.

Ravintsara oil tested by GC-MS reveals that 1,8-cineol (eucalyptol) is the main constituent not methyl chavicol. This is the main ingredient in many oils that nourish and heal respiratory complaints! This oil contains over 50% eucalyptol!

Look for a change in my website and the essential oil labels soon!

Will the Real Genus Species of Dorado Azul, please Step Forward?

Wanting to learn more about Dorado Azul I researched it on the internet and came up conflicting information on the genus species than what was originally presented to me. Once again, I turned to Young Living Product Support for help. I like to make sure my site is up to date and as accurate as possible.

As it turns out the Reference Guide for Essential Oils by Connie and Alan Higley is incorrect. And the correct genus species listed on my website and the Australian Young Living website is correct. So please make a note of it!

If you don’t know much about Dorado Azul, definitely read through the page. I was drawn to it immediately, the first time I smelled it; and it has some fascinating properties. As I first thought, it also has a high level of 1,8-cineol. It is a natural anti-inflammatory; and supports the respiratory, digestive and hormonal systems in the body. It is also great for mosquito repelling and so much more!

Scheduled Events

I was in Venice, Florida to assist Christina Hagan with a CARE Intensive as part of my ongoing effort to become a Certified CARE Instructor (CCI). Nine wonderful women from all walks of life and all ages participated in the intensive with an open heart and mind. I’m always gratified and excited by the amount of healing that takes place during the course; and what a cohesive group is formed by the end of these classes.
