ESSENTIAL OILS FOR MIND & MOOD SUPPORT

Sep 16, 2021
 

Essential oils & aromatherapy can be an amazing support for mental & emotional wellness.

In this Essential Oil Study Session I chat with my good friend Jerrilee Fischer-Garza about simple ways to infuse essential oils into your day to feel more balanced, uplifted, focused and rested.

We go over which oils to use, how to use them, and other simple self-care practices you can do to alleviate anxiety, lift your mood, and support better sleep.

Simple Ways to Support Your Mood with Oils

Simply Breathe - Place 1-2 drops of essential oil into your hands and rub together. Place hands in front of your face and take 6 deep breaths.

Mini Savasana - Rub 1-2 drops of essential oil into your hands, take a few breaths, and apply to the chest and the back of the neck. Put legs up the wall/chair or take any restful pose. Breathe deeply and relax for as long as you’d like.

Quick Self-Massage - Sit in an upright position and lower your shoulders away from your ears. Put some carrier oil into your hands with a couple of drops of your favorite essential oil. Rub your hands together then apply to your neck and shoulders. Locate tight or painful areas. Press fingers firmly into those areas, making circular motions. Don’t over think it! Trust yourself and let it feel good!

Quick Pick-Me-Up - 1-2 drops each Wild Orange and Peppermint. Add oils to your palms and rub them together. Cup hands over nose and inhale deeply. Apply to the back of the neck, wrists and inner elbows.
